One of two Galsec rifles made for the classic 1975 Doctor Who story 'The Sontaran Experiment'. It's a wonderful item that survived the location filming on dartmoor (where the props got thrown around escaping Styre and his robot!). The prop then turned up again on location in Blakes 7.
Made in metal by Tony Oxley (known in the BBC VFX department for his work with the material) this version was wired up so that it would light. Sadly the fragile 'lamp shade' gun nozzle has been long lost. This is my favourite 'Who' story and I never thought I would own an item from it. A robust and fabulous prop!
