Up for auction today is an fun Mattel Shootin' Shell 38 Snub Nose Cap Gun from the Detective series,
Mattel didn't spare any expense putting this one out. It was so much fun playing cops and robbers back in the 50's with this set. What I have up today is the cap gun.
The 38 detective cap gun has fun shiny chrome finish that shows some to very little play wear. The shiny chrome finish is nice. The grips are original Mattel and are nice and tight with a minor repair at the front of the butt of the gun. The loading gate is tight and works as it should. When you pull the trigger the cylinder rotates as it should. Everything about this cap gun works.
This cap gun uses the Greenie Stik-M-Caps and Mattel shootin shell bullets which are available on this website.
If you want to put this in your collection, it is to your advantage to get that biddin finger out and buy, buy,buy.
Finally, I do not sell junk. I am so angry about sellers who list cap guns that don't work. They claim the cap guns work, but have no bullets or caps to test them. I do have caps and bullets to test them. Each item is tested gently and sent out in working order. EXCEPTION to my own rule: If a cap gun has not been cap fired, I do not cap fire it either. But it is gently tested. You can bid with confidence when you bid on huckleberryib items.
