Old Revolver Serves as Table Lamp

AN INTERESTING desk or table lamp for the den can be made from an old revolver. Bolt the butt of the gun to a metal base, then fasten a lamp socket into the end of the barrel. The electric cord is run through the barrel to a switch so mounted that the lamp can be turned on and off by pulling the trigger.

The type of revolver that breaks for loading will give a lamp which is readily tilted.
