calibre rim fire ammunition especially developed for it as the smallest rim fire ammunition in the world.

With the craze for the new mini ruger this should be a hit

We expect MB to personally fly to the factory in Switzerland to do a full video report.  Perhaps Todd Jarrett can go along and try to beat his own 1000 round record with it.

Wow... that IS tiny.

I thought I had a little one. I hadn't shot this for awhile so took it out with us Saturday. I have medium sized hands for a girl, so you can kind of judge the size.
It's a Freedom Arms  6 shot 22LR that snaps into a belt buckle. Push the button and the gun comes out.
 Shoots pretty darn good, but you better not be too far from your "subject" that you're aiming at. ..
I love it..  ;) Slick little thing.

Anyway, lets all go shoot some today. Mac.

Was at the range last night (I had RO duty).  Ours is a covered out door range and it stormed last night.  Perversely we had one of the biggest turn outs on a Friday night that we have had in months!

People gettin' soaked running down to the targets and some rain blowing well into the covered shooting area but they wanted to stay and put lead down range.  Mostly handguns and some 50 yard rifle as I know a 100 yard shot would have had a hard time hitting paper in that wind (45mph gusts!).

Had to cancel the shotgun Friday fun shoot as that is not covered and I am sure we could never have gotten the steel targets to stand in that wind.

Crazy, but we actually had fun!

Those kinds of times that are not predictable generally are the ones I have the most fun at.. Or when I really don't want to go to an event very bad..and I am the one that ends up having the most fun and wanting to stay til the last dog is hung.  ;D
And yea, you probably guessed that I am the one who comes home with the lampshade on my head. (http://www.cascity.com/howard/animations/112.gif)

When I was a little boy I had a really great toy gun and holster set. It had a derringer in the buckle just like yours Marshal'ette and when you pressed the button it would shoot out a little plastic bullet.

Your post brought back great memories. So I tried to find it on the 'net and I did. Here it is...

Marshal'ette,

When did you get that Freedom Arms mini?  I was just at their site and all I saw were the big boomers (or as they say in Germany 'eargeshplitten loudenboomers'), so I thought MAYBE you meant NAA but didn't see anything like that there either.

That belt buckle thing reminds me of an old westen serial (just can't remember which one, Wild Wild West maybe?).

It was purchased 30 years ago. We have tried since to get more and they don't make them anymore. My kids wanted one and several people have offered a pretty nice $ for this one, but it's not for sale.  ;)
As far as I know, there isn't another company that makes these.. but I haven't researched it for a few years.

Hey Marshal'ette...I'm thinking about getting one of those Swiss Mini Revolvers and, taking the advice of one of my commentators, making it an earring! You could do the same thing...

Hey....Great Idea Michael...   Give your"earring fans" something to really talk about!  (http://www.cascity.com/howard/animations/222.gif) Since there isn't any snap and shoot from the hip....
You'll have to have it pretty dangly to be able to grab it and shoot " from the ear".. LOL ;D

I just went into the link Haz.. Ohh my god.. I am drooling. I have a weakness for tiny guns. The one with the locking blade knife?? I HAVE to have one of those. I wear a knife lots of times hooked on my belt.. THIS would just the the cats ass, wouldn't it? Yep.. I am going to definitely get one..  I am way excited.!
Thanks for finding them ... I hadn't looked in years.. No need to but I didn't know that they had the other cool stuff.  :) I want one of those key chain guns too... and I definitely have to have another belt buckle gun.. (those are a little more fancy than the one I have)
I can see it all so clearly~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 
Here's me........(http://www.cascity.com/howard/animations/121.gif)

and afterwards,

Here's poor Marshal.......(http://www.cascity.com/howard/animations/131.gif)

That..is..absolutely terrifying :o. Just think what the woman could do with one of our pictures, like, well, that great shot of You-know-who, in his too small Ruger shirt?   Cat's on eternal probation. Lucky she'a a good hearted woman .

Look at it this way.  I can either blame a good looking blond that likes to give things away or I can push it off on you.  ;D

What would you do?  ;)
