Hubley was from Lancaster, Pennsylvania and
started in 1894. The Hubley company made some of the finest Cap Guns you ever
saw. The Texans and the Cowboy were especially popular. They made guns with
nice scrollwork and some that were gold. They are still considered very
valuable collector's items. If you collect Cap Guns, then (besides Nichols
Industries Cap Guns, of course!!!) you have got to have a good collection of
Hubleys.
One of their most popular Cap Guns was from The Rifleman
television show starring Chuck Connors and Johnny Crawford. It had that special
cocking lever so he could really fire quickly. There are several examples in
this Hubley section.
Then there is their fabulous Colt 45 that was a full-sized model
of the Civil War pistol. I love it!

Hubley Short
Barreled Texan Jr. (Transition)
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
This Cap Gun Model by Hubley is
one of those that was a "transition" model that bridged the gap between purely
cast-iron Cap Guns and die-cast Cap Guns.
It had some parts made out of cast-iron
and some that were die-cast. A very valuable collector's item. |

Hubley Texan Jr.
Gold Finish
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
The reasons I have included
this Texan Jr. is its unusual method of releasing the cylinder and its gold
toned finish.
The Texan and Texan Junior were so popular that Hubley made
quite a few different variations and this is just one of them.

The Last Hubley
Texan Jr. Version (sort of)
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
It is really a tribute to a Cap
Gun that it would be made in so many different versions. The Hubley Texan Jr.
was one of those types of guns.

Though I say above that it was the last version of the Texan Jr.,
that is a half-truth. If you can see on this package, Hubley sold out to
Gabriel Industries, Inc. of Lancaster, Pennsylvania and this Cap Gun was made
in 1971, well after the glory years of the Hubley that we knew and loved.
Notice how small the steer on the grip has become.

Here's a World War II Victory Texan, Jr. by Hubley. This is made
from "Wood Plastic." These guns were made during the war when people were
donating scrap metal for the war drive and there really wasn't any metal to
spare. This is a really nice offering from
Don
Raker, one of our many advertisers. A gun like this is quite
rare.
