Pneumatic Hand Drill

This item is an air-powered hand drill, likely made of aluminum or a similar lightweight metal alloy given its silver/grey color and visible texture. It features a pistol-grip style handle with a trigger mechanism for operation. The construction appears to be robust, typical of industrial or heavy-duty tools. The body of the drill is a uniform metallic grey, showing signs of use with minor scuffs and surface scratches consistent with a working tool. There is a faded, rectangular label affixed to the top of the body, which appears to contain manufacturing or operational details, though the text is largely illegible. The chuck, which holds the drill bit, is a traditional keyed chuck, showing some wear and darkening from use. A standard twist drill bit is currently installed in the chuck. At the base of the handle, there is a visible air inlet, indicating it connects to an air compressor for power. The overall condition suggests it is well-used but still functional, with a visible patina that speaks to its age and work history. There are no obvious signs of major damage or repair, and the craftsmanship appears to be industrial grade. Based on its design and material characteristics, it likely dates from the mid-20th century, possibly the 1950s to 1970s.
