Or Joss Wheden would put it in Firefly. Or Tinker would build it.If George Lucas had run across this thing in 1973, I feel pretty sure it would have shown up in one of the Star Wars movies. Has that interesting blend of old-timey and space-agey.
Nah, not a tinker project. Barrel is too long, shoots too few rounds, condition is too nice, and it's too rare.. Or Tinker would build it.
How the heck would you even adjust that for windage?
Looks like .22 LR. Could be a one-off, but it has the lines of a Walther. I'd guess Walther target pistol, not sure about the Allen heads, might put the date late than 1944-that's probably a serial number. Is it solid steel or Zamak with a barrel liner?
An associate of mine recently showed me this pistol. Said he received it from the estate of a man of German decent back in 1965. Want's to sell it, and I really want to buy it, but don't know what to offer him at all. Looks like a custom made gun. The only marking on it at all is the number 1944 stamped on the grip butt. It's a rimfire single-shot in really good condition. But boy, is it unique or what? Anyone got any ideas about its provenance?
It was a joke, man, sorry if you took it personal.WOW! We do get personal don't we Shanghai...
Well it IS ugly.
I thought that sounded like His Dudeness.
S&W made a single shot in the 1920's that looks similar but it has been a while since I saw it.
I'll take Advanced Homebuilt for $300, Alex.
Socket head screws indicate a relatively recent project.
