    Post Pics of the weirdest, strangest, smallest, coolest guns you can find!

    Here's a starter....



    The SwissMiniGun is a 2.16-inch replica of a Colt Python, and it's a real gun that shoots tiny bullets that are just .35 inches long. This miniature Swiss-made revolver and its ammunition are painstakingly crafted using watchmaking technology.

    Hard to believe! :popcorn:

    Not small, but definitely strange. Dardick Model 1500:
    dardickpistol.jpg


    From SecurityArms Firearms Photo Archive:
    This unusual pistol was the idea of New York inventor David Dardick. His
    design used a rotary chamber (like a revolver), but rather than
    containing closed chambers, used three longitudinal recesses. Each was
    open to one side. To fit their triangular shape, Dardick developped a
    special round: a triangular nylon jacket with rounded sides holding a
    metallic sleeve which contained a standard bullet, propellant and
    primer. The cartridges were fed from an integral grip magazine into the
    first recess, which rotated into the firing position and fired. It would
    then continue rotating until the spent casing fell out, allowing another
    round to be fed onto the rotor. It never developped any kind of
    following, and in 1962, was discontinued. Only about fifty of these were
    ever made between 1954 and their end, and individual rounds (trounds)
    run about $5 - $10 these days.

    Apache Knuckle buster

    This unusual-looking gadget was a multi-purpose weapon made from about 1870 to 1900. It's a combination knife, revolver and brass knuckles. It looks really interesting, but my guess would be it's not very practical. Of course these antique firearms make great collector's items. Also, the brass knuckles part was hinged, and it could fold up beneath the main body of the weapon; the knife too could be folded back against the body, thus allowing the user to drop this into a pocket.
