Risk Description
There is no indication that the item is also a lighter. Pressing the lever on the top right hand side of the revolver activates the lighting mechanism – a 15mm flame appears from out of a hole alongside the activating lever. Therefore as the item’s design is appealing to children, accidents may happen when an unsuspected child ignites the lighter part.
