From a fake Vietnam-era flamethrower that nearly sends the shop running, to a rare Victorian vampire defense kit valued at over $25,000, this episode delivers back-to-back insanity inside the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop. Every deal spirals into comedy, chaos, or a surprising jackpot — and all of it is straight from the transcript.
Things start hot when a seller drags in what he thinks is a World War I flamethrower. Rick calls in an expert who reveals the truth: it’s a non-operational casting from the Vietnam era, worth around $2,000 to $2,500. The negotiation swings from $500 to a hard-won $1,000.
Before the smoke clears, the guys check out a 1963 Baja Bug built for the desert, a gypsy fortune-telling machine that sparks a bidding war at auction, and a groom-to-be pawning an 1857 Manhattan Arms Pepperbox revolver for a wedding gift. A test-fire later, he walks out $300 richer.
Things only get crazier when a genuine 19th-century elevator model arrives, followed by a full Victorian vampire hunting kit—silver bullets, crucifix, stakes, pistols, everything. The expert confirms the pieces are authentic and tells Rick similar sets have sold for more than $25,000. After tense bargaining, Rick lands it for $16,000.
From there, the shop goes off the rails: a GoldenEye prop gun with mismatched details, a trackless mall train that blocks the parking lot, a Stevie Ray Vaughan guitar strap, a certificate from the Atomic Energy Commission, a salesman’s sample instrument kit, wind-up toys from the 1910s and 1920s, gruesome tonsillotomy tools, and even a literal NASA space toilet seat used in Apollo program testing, valued at up to $10,000.
And the grand finale? Rick takes the vampire kit to the range, fires both antique pistols, and the expert confirms it’s worth $25,000 to $30,000. Meanwhile, Chumlee misplaces a rare Pez Space Ray gun, Rick panics, and the chaos spills straight into the parking lot.
Every moment is real Pawn Stars gold — big history, bigger laughs, and even bigger deals.
