Silly-looking guns
« on: October 30, 2012, 11:31:02 AM »
I would post this in the "Judge as a Self-Defense Handgun" thread, but would like to see that one die.

Granted, not all the guns pictured are handguns...but...here are some that look silly to me.

I especially like the 12 ga. out of pvc, and the zip gun with a silencer.   :-X

# 7 is a WWII liberator.  It was a 45 caliber and was dropped behind enemy lines for use by freedom fighters.  It was good for one shot. IIRC and the idea was to kill an enemy and then take his weapon and ammo.  It was mass produced by the US.

My fave is the Astra(?) with the U-shaped mag.  Lotta good technology went to waste making that.

It may appear to be a liberator,and is probably about the same quality, but its just a zipgun. The Lib pistol was a single shot, and had storage for several rounds of .45acp in the grip.

Silly ? I take issue with the term silly---that is in the eye of the beholder.
Function may have silly connotations but has more reality to it than silly.
Just sayin.
