FB Record LP1 (1967 onwards)

Another new addition to the collection – it’s been a busy month! This time it’s an FB Record LP1. Well, actually two of them. I hedged my bets at a closed auction and won both of them! Despite still being available to buy new in Europe you don’t see them come up for sale very often in the UK. They are not available in the US as they do not have a safety catch. The compression tube is blued and in remarkable condition, whereas the barrel has developed quite a patina. Both pistols were complete with box and instruction manuals. Unfortunately, the boxes had their ends severed through use and wear. Luckily all the ends were supplied and I have managed to restore the boxes (see this article).
