    Description

    This replica gun contains the colored markings required by law, including a permanently attached orange plug.  Also, the cap gun is a toy and cannot fire projectiles.
    This auction is for a Kenton Gene Autry cap gun, probably manufactured around 1938.  This is a cast iron cap gun approximately 6" long.  It has a nickel finish and white grips.  Gene Autry's name was originally in script on both grips, but is barely legible on the right grip and is somehow smeared on the left grip (see pictures 1 and 2).
    The nickel finish on this cap gun is excellent, and the cap gun appears to have never fired caps.  However, the firing mechanism tends to stick and the hammer snap is mediocre.  I have oiled the mechanism, but that doesn't seem to help much.  I imagine that someone with above average mechanical ability would be able to fix this.
    As far as I can tell, all parts of this cap gun are original.
