HANS Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 Hiya, I'm trying to identify this 37mm launcher stolen from the Massachusetts State Police in early 1934. I couldn't find it in Swearengen's book on TEAR GAS MUNITIONS and these old gas things are not really my forte. It does seem to have an inordinarily long barrel and appears to be nickeled. Anyone? Many thanks! Cheers HANS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ron_brock Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 Not a lot to go on from the picture, do you know if there are other shots from this scene? The only period long barrel gun Ive seen so far were Sedgley products. That would be my guess. Cool Thompson on the side with horizontal grip.

I think the gas gun is similar to this one just with a longer barrel. That would make it a converted Webley from Federal. Didn't know these existed with such long barrels.

HANS Posted December 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2017 Yeah, that seems to be the same thing. Does anyone know more about it? Cheers HANS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
