      No but that is where he got it from. Its a very collectable old Arcade gun. I WANT IT!!!!!!!

      This Feltman Machine Gun was acquired from Lakemont Amusement Park in PA. I have an identical gun that will soon be available. For nearly 55 years, these unique air machine guns was sold worldwide to the amusement park industry. During World War II the Army Air Corps. procured this versatile gun to train aerial gunners to lead moving targets. These guns are highly collectable & RARE !!

      Each of these guns come with an air hose, over 100 brass filling tubes (holding 100 shots each), with owners & maintenance manuals.

        I saw one of those in a carnival booth. The object was to shoot the star off the paper. It didnt look anything like that though, it was just a block of metal no nice wood or grease gun look.

          I owned this Airsoft gun, it was pretty cool. Only problem was there wasn't a point to having it besides the "cool" factor.

            that's a fun game!

            too bad it costs a dollar at my state fair!!!

            i spent like 30 bucks last year on that game! and i didnt win once, it's nearly impossible, but fun!

            at the NC state fair, the little metal strip along the edge of the counter has a very small electric current going thru it, so when you lean on it for too long u get a small shock, keeping people from trying to aim every burst and getting the star shot out!

            * i walked around to every one of these boothc, played every one, and watched the workers, none of them leaned on the metla part, and i got shocked like every 5-10 seconds, so i think it's a pulse that goes thru it!

              i've played that before...I always thought that they worked by having a spring loaded mechanism to feed the BB's to the breech/barrel and whenever the trigger was held down it just opened up a constand air flow directed down the barrel... anyone know if thats how it works...i'd be easy to make a homeade one

                  It is basically a hose that is used to spray 100 lead BBs into a target trap.

                  The game is VERY winnable - IF you know the technique. You cannot just "spray away" at the star nd hope to win. The way to beat the game is to shoot 2-3 BB bursts, 1 burst at a time, around the perimeter of the star. If you do it right, then you should have about 3-4 bursts left after "perforating" the target. you then shoot 1-2 BB bursts at the center of the circle you created and you can "pop" the the center right out. The rules say that the star must be totally removed from the target and this is the only way. You CANNOT shoot the start until you "cut" out the circle.
