Summerof69 Posted July 16, 2018 Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 Came across this fairly common WW2 Flare / Signal Gun made by EVCC " Eureka Vacuum Cleaner Corp " I believe this could be a Line Thrower made by them but have yet to find another like this. I came across a patent by RF Sedgley flare gun modification which looks similar to this gun ( pdf file below) . The extension measures 6 1/2 " long from the end of the original flare gun. The barrel opening is 1/2" Dia . Any thoughts.......Thank You BobLineThrower.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Summerof69 Posted July 16, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2018 Appears to be 12MM in dia. A 410 I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherman3 Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 Home made. I have seen several differant types of flare gun conversions at the J.M. Davis museum in Clarmore,Ok . All were police confiscated and donated to the museum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
