Post subject:  VP-70 in Empire Strikes Back

Hello!

This is probably old news, but I'm pretty sure these are VP-70's that the Bespin guards were carrying. I've never noticed them before, but then again, I've never had a 50 inch tv in my bedroom before. :wink:

Oh wow! Thanks for the clarification, Harry! To be fair, it does look inspired in part with the VP-70. I'm curious as to what real world pistol was used. When looking at the grip, I can almost make out an insignia or logo in the center. Anyway, thanks again for educating me!

It's the 'Galeon' model pneumatic speargun from Nemrod.
Haven't seen the exact one, but there are a few similar models around, all of which look to be about £60 from Spain.

Happy hunting...
