Moonraker Laser Rifle Parts ID

I have a feeling that the front of the Moonraker Lazer gun's Nozle / Barrel is made from a vintage Garden Hose attachment or nozzle

if you look at the similar bumps and shape, and design. I have a feeling its fashioned from 1 / 2 different attachments stuck together backwards.

I have posted the images above, just to show you a similar style and shape, these are pictures of modern day fittings available to buy. But I am betting it was a vintage one from the time of the movie used or an older fitting.

I just have a feeling by looking at it and thinking I have seen similar things before in this trype of garden product.

''Hey Bond! Do you do any gardening ?"

In fact it looks as if it has been moulded from a rubber shape of some sort maybe a wooden shape was made up according to some designs and a mould was made to produce a few, as there was quite a few Lazer Guns seen in the film

Ok after looking around in the garage and finding some parts and an Old UZI machine gun in a box of junk exact to the model used for the original film prop, I am going to mock up a replica. Thanks for the picture Ed, a great help

well I am going to have a mooch around as I need to get some parts together to make this replica. but I think we may just find the correct front for the gun.

I was watching the film earlier. and I noticed in the pic you have above of the gun on display at planet hollywood in London I think it is. the trigger shape / loop is missing. i know they repliced the trigger with a button.

what is the deal with the other Moonraker lazer guns. like the one Holly is using to shoot Drax's men in the space station and the one Drx picks up to shoot Bond with at the end. they look like old ATARI and SAGA gun's with the fronts modified

also I take it some of the Lazer Gun / UZI conversion models were made in black aswell and not just white as this image shows

now where have i seen that colour scheme used before? oh yeah, just about every spaghetti western going

LOL, if you think about it Bond was the trendsetter for the All-stars

Interesting idea!  But I believe it will be very difficult to identify this top part.
The more I look to the front barrel, the more I think it could be a radiator valve.  Am I imagining that there is written ABACUSHEATING ????

Does this house still exist?  Can you check?
This topic drives me and other totally crazy!
Yesterday my wife didn't speak with me anymore because I was all evening in my study, searching the internet for this thing...
Do you live in the US or UK?  Thanks

It's only five minutes up the road, but I can hardly knock on the door and ask if I can see their radiator knobs   If it helps, they were oriented vertically rather than horizontally like the ones in your piccy there.  They were quite common models back then, so someone in the UK should have something similar.

Abacus doesn't ring a bell, maybe electrolux or dimplex?
