As it turns out, there are quite a few other Cap
Guns from companies that never quite made it to the forefront. Some of the guns
weren't any good and some were TERRIFIC! But they don't quite fall into a major
category, so we present them here.

have a German version of what they think a Buffalo Bill Cap Gun ought to look
like. Before this, I wasn't aware that Germany had any interest in our Wild

Gold Plated
Mexican Version of the Buzz Henry Cap Gun
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
Well, the Mexicans have gotten
into the mix too. Here's their version of the Buzz Henry Cap Gun. Would
somebody explain to me how gold plated Cap Guns could be so cheap? Anything I
have ever bought that was gold plated was more expensive. Strange to
me.
Photos are thanks to Rich Hall. |

This is a
serious case of stealing some good ideas. However, for all I know, they may
have licensed the entire thing out. It is a Gunsmoke Cap Gun set with double
holsters and the Cap Gun look like they were made by Hubley. But they weren't!
You won't see many of these.

Treasures, one of our advertisers.
Normally when people send me
off-the-wall photos of a Cap Gun, it is something that looks like it had been
in the bowels of the earth for 560 years and their photo is out of focus and
they ask me what it is and how much it is worth. (In spite of the fact that on
my Contact Page I tell them I'm unlikely to know!) But in this case, we have a
very unusual gun that (to me) looks like a cross between a Walther P-38 and a
Luger. The Woodsman. I hope somebody will tell me something about it, for I
don't recognize it—except to say that it must have been made prior to
1950. Some guess, huh? At least Johnny knows how to take proper photos. Write
in with your answers about this gun and I'll stick them here.

Topper Johnny Eagle Lieutenant

|
|
This
Johnny Eagle Lieutenant by Topper is essentially a scale model of a Colt 1911A
government issue semi-automatic .45. About the most popular handgun ever made.
Still VERY popular to this day and extremely reliable.

Here is a nice set that
was put together from a fancy Zorro holster, mask and sword set from Walt
Disney Productions. The Cap Guns are Hubley Coyotes.

"Copycat"
Stallion 45 from New Zealand
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
The nerve!!! Oh well, this is a
copycat Stallion 45 from way down under. New Zealand, where I would like to
live if I didn't live here. I don't know if they made chrome versions, but this
black one is nice. Would somebody tell me what the "R" stands for?
RIP-OFF???

McMath Custom Sheriff

This is a Sheriff model made
from a Hubley Cowboy. The gun is owned by Penn Waldron, another of Frank’s
customers. Nice piece. The barrel was shortened, seams ground, custom Sheriff
logo and refinished. A nice gun.

results!

This is one of the more
beautiful Cap Guns that was ever made. And you just have to wonder why they
never quite succeeded very much.
