WWII FP-45 Liberator Pistol

Originally developed in 1942 for the U.S. Army by the Inland Manufacturing Division of the General Motors Corporation in Dayton Ohio. This single-shot, smooth bore .45 calibre pistol had a dubious history. Intended for mass distribution in enemy occupied territory to incite revolt, the Army refered to it as a "flare pistol" (FP-45) to ensure secrecy. The Frigidaire plant at Dayton chambered the rough barrels. Workers at the Guide Lamp plant in Anderson Indiana assembled a million of these weapons. In Europe the Allied commanders deemed the mass distribution impractical, and very few Liberators were delivered to the resistance forces. Only Chinese forces received many of these weapons and most of them were destroyed. Today, a good example is very hard to find. We have two avaiable, both are in nice condition. These are available to Canadian residents ONLY. NOTE : Only Canadian citizens that possess a Firearms License that allows for aquisition of Prohibited
Firearms 12(6) Handgun can purchase. I can also have the pistols professionally deactivated so ANY Canadian collector may purchase
without PERMITS. Sadly for my US Customers BATF will not allow their importation into the USA. I will consider deactivation for European Customers, so long as you provide the necessary requirements of your Government, and any importation documents as may be necessary. These Pistols are priced to sell, so do not miss your chance to own a rare and highly desirable piece of History.
