It’s a Walther air pistol but not a “BB gun.” It shoots .177 lead pellets through a precisely rifled barrel.

No it lasted until Dr No, which was 6th book. He has a Berreta 418.

I have made it through Casino Royale, Live and Let Die, and halfway through Moonraker and he still has it.

In Casino Royale he has .38 police special and Colt 45 in his Bentley.

Sean Connery is only 12 years older than Harrison Ford but he plays his father in "Indiana Jones: The Last Crusade"
