Unusual weapons

From time to time I see unusual stuff for sale, so I thought I’d start a thread about it.

A Swiss army flamethrower, last inspected in 1994

Something about strapping that much flammable materiel to my back just doesn't appeal...I think the life span of flamethrower me on Iwo Jima was measured in seconds. On the other hand, what a cool collectable!

Three years ago I saw an ad for a weird home made pistol. It seems a gentleman named Philip Sola in Zurich, Switzerland, decided in 1970 to build his own semi automatic handgun chambered in .357 Magnum with a lateral toggle slide. Price was abt $ 3200. I didn’t buy it

The seller recommended against firing this prototype

[bang bang]

some cool toys...

i have to hand it to many people around the world that have the skills and patience to make a toy or anything else.

A very familiar rifle but this variant is seemingly quite rare, a 1985 East German MPi KM. Most of them went to the crusher after the reunification of Germany. A good buddy of mine just bought it from the LGS

yeah I had a couple 18650 vape batteries I had in my pocket blow up. It was like having 2 road.flarws going off at the same time. Burnned my arse up. Bad thing is I knew that could and was very likely to happen, I just had a brain fart for a few seconds. It was a bad day ended up in the burn center in Kennesaw Ga.

Spotted a nifty little Polish machine pistol PM 63 RAK in 9 mm Makarov at the LGS (I didn’t buy it). Around $ 1200

I love the aesthetics of this gun, but it won't be advisable for a beginner to handle a gun like this. I don't get to like the slide moving back and forth. That's not good enough to handle. But the aesthetics made me like the gun.

A shooting buddy bought this Pardini GT9 S 9 mm Parabellum for a small fortune (over 3 grand). He did not like it, the grip was too wide for his small hands, so he sold it at a loss to another shooting buddy.

















The barrel is very thick



50 m target, it shot a bit low and left for me so I had to adjust my aim. Very good trigger and soft recoiling pistol due to its all steel mass

[bang bang]

cool...

i was looking at one the Pardons in 45acp.

from my memory, they triggers were fully adjustable for everything...
