Corporal Dwayne Hicks' (Michael Biehn) hero shotgun from James Cameron's sci-fi sequel Aliens. Hicks wielded his shotgun during the Colonial Marines' first confrontation with the xenomorphs, culminating in his blasting the head off the xenomorph that blocked the door of their Armoured Personnel Carrier (APC), keeping it from closing.

This 12-gauge Ithaca 37 has been sympathetically deactivated as confirmed by a Deactivation Certificate issued by the Birmingham Gun Barrel Proof House. It features a metal body with a custom cut-down barrel and hunting scenes engraved on the sides; an etched wooden forearm; ridged Bakelite plating around the custom-modified MP-40 pistol grip and trigger guard; and a hole through the back for attaching a folding stock.

Black tape on the grip is no longer present, and the shotgun exhibits scuffing to the wood and nicks throughout the metal from production use. As this lot ships from Los Angeles, shipping should be arranged with Propstore prior to bidding. Dimensions: 58.5 cm x 5.25 cm x 18 cm (23" x 2" x 7")

Firearm deactivated; see firearm deactivation notice in the Buyer's Guide.
