First, you must dig up the corpse...then you put it on a large metal table...then you raise the table up to the top of the tower and let a lightning bolt hit it...then you lower the table and pull back the sheet...and you scream.."ITS ALIVE!!!"

^thanks, I was wondering about that. Igor, bring the brain! not Abbey Normal's brain, the other one!

It's sad that we are both old enough to know EXACTLY which version you are referring to....

Mel Brooks really needed to make a LOT more movies...

I had a Clerke once in .32 S&W when I was a teen. I traded a bayonet for it. I had it about two weeks and the kid who traded it to me brought my bayonet back and said his dad wanted the gun back. I gave it back to him, of course. But after closely examining the gun, I could never figure out WHY he wanted it back. The thing was a true piece of junk, made of pot metal and had springs exactly like those used in toy cap guns. I wouldn't have shot the thing on a bet.

I remember when those Clerke's sold for $14.95 new, and an S&W Mod 29 was $140, just to put it in perspective. The guns were cheap pot metal, and are of no value except to a curiosity seeker. I saw one at a gunshow for $50.00 and walked away laughing. Worst part is I almost bought it as a curio. It is best gotten rid of. As was said peviously, the frame is Zamac (pot metal), very cheap springs, and if it fires at all dismal accuracy. The gun will likely fire a few times then fail.

if there is no signs of rust on the gun
and it wasnt previously broken i assume it is 100% usable and safe
my father had a beligian semi auto gun that was stored in a safe for more than 40 years and when i first shot with it it shot just like a brand new one !!
