It's one of my very most cherished things from my youth. I had four or five of the workers as well. I believe they were almost all stolen during a break-in. I was so happy to see that you could buy the gasket kits from the original manufacturer. I will have to order a set. ~Stay healthy, happy, and safe.~

[@jerichojoe307]

For the second time today I get to witness the quality of the way things were made in the past. Digging through the Attic getting rid of some old things, we found an old cap gun from the 1960s made by Paris the 5891 model. Still in all its original Glory with all of the springs and mechanisms still working flawlessly. I actually happen to have some ring caps here because I'm a muzzleloader Hunter and sometimes I make my own percussion caps which these can be used for by adding a little bit of alcohol wetted 3 fff powder. I test fired the gun which still snaps and gave me all of the joy of those nostalgic days although those days were before my time. For something this old to still have springs and mechanisms that works so smoothly and flawlessly; really speaks to the quality of craftsmanship even with toys back in the day. Today's era things are made to be thrown away. They are made to break. They are made for convenience and disposability. Really makes you miss the days of old.

It’s a very rare gun you found out there. Lot of replicas tho. But always a pleasure to use it still 😃👍
