Silk Pistol (Silk Gun) by Magic Hands

Magic Hands created at least three different Silk Pistols. Starting c. 1974 they began with a Gorden’s Silk in Balloon using a more traditional revolver style. Then c. 1974 they released Gorden’s Silk in Balloon II with a Blunderbuss style double-shot pistol, and finally this version c. 1984.

This pistol is very reliable but you really should use a 9″ or 10″ silk not a 12″ silk which is supplied – with a 12″ silk there is a tendency for the silk to stick.  But slightly smaller and it works every-time if you set it up correctly and attach the silk correctly too.

Effect: The rendition of this attractive gimmick will most likely interest only a limited number of magicians, but every owner of the magic hands new silk pistol will highly value its show effect and its excellent workmanship.

An antique six-shooter with .22 cal caps. You place a 12″ x 12″ silk over the barrel. You shoot, and “quick as a shot” the silk will disappear and will reappear well, wherever you shot it: for example, our Silk Frame that was empty before, in a glass, in a mirror glass, or wherever you feel it would be effective. A first class, professional trick!
