I am finishing a review for RetroBlast! of the Act Labs lightgun and am trying to figure out what type of pistol it is modeled on. Anyone have any clues?

I believe it is based on James Bond's trusty Walther PPK.  I have attached pictures below of both the Walther PPK (top) and Smith & Weson 9mm (bottom).  You can see the difference and the Act Labs gun is a dead ringer for the Walther PPK.

I would have to say the 007 rig looks pretty close. Thanks Mark!

PPK was my guess when I first saw pictures of it after the re-release.
