This is the Vintage modelgun"Hudson Greasegun M3A1" from my
collection. Please enjoy these pics.
specification
lenght:76cm including stock
weight:4.5kg Damme heavy!
caliver:45acp
material:steel,zinc
magazine capacity:30
Hudson is the only modelgun company produced M3A1, mgc had been produced the Greasegun before around 1970, but that was M3.
The tip of the barrel, you can see the flash hider , this is the real one,
magazine, sling also are real.
Here are 10 Hudson orjginal 45acp cartridges, we called open firing cartridges, I don't know the possibility to fire 30rounds without any jam.
nobody knows!! I have never met the guy who possess this Greasegun!
Anyway, I am damme lucky guy!
Here is the bolt made of zinc, this bolt is not one solid metal, consist of 2piesce of parts. That's why you can't see the exstractor hidden in the bolt. Greaseguns bolt is so big and heavy as you can imagine, but I feel like it so light when i move it to backward using my finger.there is no
cocking handle anyway. because this big bolt is like floating on the 2 guiding rod.
Here is the only marking on this modelgun. Real gun has the marking on the oppsite side.
You can see the 2screws on the housing cover, these screws hold the ejector.
Now check this out! this is the real flash hider. Hudson was selling the
flash hider for Greasegun at that time, but Hudson didn't make it , somehow they had been inported from U.S.A.
Here is the detonator, called open firing detonator. if you fired, gasses
go through to the mazzel.
I still don't know what this marking meaning is.
Look at this! what a thick steel !! spring tension is so hard campared to it with the modelgun.
Thank you all watching this and sorry about my stupid English!!
