About this deal

In the 2001 Russian film Lions Share, the hero has a lighter in the shape of a gun. When in the end he confronts the (armed) traitor, he pulls out this lighter to light his cigarette as they talk. But when the traitor lets his guard down, he shoots him with it, revealing that it was not just a lighter.

A more serious competitor to the TW discharger - alluded to in the above historical note - was a 2-inch universal discharger which would entail a complete revamp of British grenade stores, with the replacement of the service Mills HE grenade and all signalling and smoke grenades with new 2-inch designs, and involving changes of fuzing from time to percussion/impact for the HE grenades . GHQ France had long wanted to move to smaller, lighter HE grenades (troops could carry more, they would have greater range, and they would be more economical in materials) and much experimental work was carried out from early 1917 to beyond the end of hostilities. Finally, after much effort and hardship, the 2-inch HE No.54 grenade was introduced in 1923 (and a little later 2-inch smoke grenades trialled), but only saw service until the early 1930s, when it was realized that the greater payloads of 2.5-inch grenades were a good thing.Chief Inspector Martin Gaffney, of Manchester Airport police, said: "I would like to remind members of the public that carrying articles of this type, especially in the current climate, can cause a potentially dangerous situation. Similar scenario happens in an episode of Happy Days where a sheriff, who has a vendetta for the Fonz, proceeds to pat him down, and finds what appears to be a switch-blade. He's about to arrest him before Fonzie reveals that it's actually a novelty comb.

A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Police said: "As a precaution, hotel guests and staff within the immediate vicinity were moved to another area of the hotel and the bomb disposal team were called.

Re my earlier use of the term "pawls", the following text from a description of the discharger cup development gives a little support - most of the training pamphlets do use the perhaps more obvious term "levers". The 1997 George of the Jungle has an inversion: Lyle shoots at George with a pistol that he thought was a novelty lighter (the native porters had switched his lighter for an actual pistol as a prank). While ashtrays might not immediately strike you as interesting and provocative objects that deserve to be part of your decor, these accessories have taken on all manner of forms and styles over the years. Old glass ashtrays, which are quite popular and easily found in free-form, organic shapes, can be a purely decorative final touch when styling a coffee table. Visionary designers such as Isamu Noguchi — one of the most prolific and protean creative forces of the 20th century — popularized the idea of tobacco accessories as art with projects such as his decorative ashtrays. Squid Game: Gi-hun gives his young daughter a claw machine prize for her birthday, which appears to be a gun, but is actually a lighter.
