Lot Essay

Bond [Roger Moore] had arranged to meet Scaramanga's girlfriend, Andrea Anders [Maud Adams] at a boxing match to retrieve the stolen Solex Agitator which she had removed from Scaramanga's safe. When he arrives he finds her already dead, shot through the heart. Scaramanga arrives and tells Bond not to move..."look behind you....lower", indicating Nick Nack who, whilst eating peanuts, has the Derringer pointed at Bond, whose response is typically sardonic ... "a gun and a bag of peanuts, how original, what will they think of next."

As this gun is an antique, its calibre is obsolete and therefore does not require a de-activation certificate.
