Lots of info out there, if you look for it. Guy at the Calgary gun show a couple of years ago had a replica, but don't know if he built it or bought it.

Still one of the best little assassination weapons out there.

Before he was killed, Orde Wingate managed to get most of them shipped to Palestine, where they promptly "disappeared".

IDF still speaks very highly of Wingate and he is a minor national hero in modern Israel, even though a Christian.

This is one of those toys that makes me weep over our Gun Laws up here.
