The Mauser Gun

Hello Reling2,
I was just checking "The Manchurian Candidate" viewed on DVD yesterday and checking if "The Naked Runner" was available on DVD Z2 when I saw your mail.
The gun is a Mauser model 1896 "Broomhandle" fitted with a stock and longer barrel than the handpistol (Solo's gun with some gimmicks). For more details: http://www.northwest-denture.com/Mauser1896/index.htm
Alas "TNR" doesn't exist in DVD format: quite a shame!
All the best,
Robert
