This is pretty interesting. I'm seen pictures of the original prototype, but I've never seen a picture like this. It's a new orientation, and the image is fairly sharp, so it shows many details I failed to notice before.

For example, you can really see the details of the pump and the around the trigger area. Both really show how his original idea worked. The quality of the gun seems much better than from other pictures. Johnson obviously put some thought into it.

I am wondering how he did the trigger. Was it a pinch valve like in the classic series? this seems like it has a lot of info for homemade builders.
