Cool odd balls ;D

I've seen some of those before, but some are new. I do think that they are a little harsh on some of them. There are some real good ideas there, and if it weren't for trying some of that in the past where would some of our current ideas come from?
Whether you like the guns or not you have to admit that it is good porn and interesting reading.

I would say this one would also be worthy of being on that list:

Isn't "Pink Mist" something like "Purple Rain"? I wonder if Prince has one of these cute little things?

Ditto with Berreta's. I've never even heard of a Bobcat, or Tomcat that FTF. Were I to ever waste money on a 9mm I think a 92 would be a good place to look. Sitting side by side I've seen few guns in the world that even came near Berreta's machineing quality. Cant be argued by anybody who knows what their talking about (has actually seen a real gun).
"Worlds most useless handguns" = My vote would actually go to the ones in criminal hands. The ones locked up in a safe that do nothing but collect dust. The poor innocents that are allowed to sit around and rust away from neglect. Ones owned by people who dont shoot / train / learn proper use of them... BUT, you cant so much blame the gun for who took it home.
Bugatti Veyron's are nice enough cars. Does this still happen?

Great link. Those were interesting

Sold my Beretta 950 .25 for $75. I wish I never got rid of it. It was more accurate than my Smith and Wesson 6906 9mm.
While in the Air Force as an armorer I had the opportunity to visit the Beretta Firearms Factory in Brescia, Italy with my Operations Officer and NCOIC of the Armory of Aviano Air Base. Beretta makes a excellent firearm but I would rather have one of their shotguns than anything else mass produced. Their skill and craftsmanship on detailing a weapon is magnificent and hand done. Masters of the craft.
As for the useless guns, I really liked The Apache. Midevil and liked it alot. Just needed a longer barrel and a higher caliber.

Have had ZERO issues with my P3AT Kel-Tec.
Kel-tecs are light, inexpensive, concealable and go bang. If there were no alternative I'd still own own one. But man that triger sucked! Thank God for Glock. I'd carry a kel-tec if I had too, but I'm glad I don't. Mean while, back at the thread, that is a very cool find Eric. I wonder what modern counterparts are out there? We've seen cell phone guns, but someone out there has to be trying this sort of stuff today you'd think.

Based on those qualifications that gun is going to be banned soon.

Very cool post. Fascinating historical pieces.

I was scrolling down the page and was sent to this site. This has to be the mother of all handguns. http://airbornecombatengineer.typepad.com/airborne_combat_engineer/2005/01/the_maadi_griff.html

I hear ya buddy. I don't even want to be at the same range where it's being shot. ;D

Speaking of being at the same range, here is one weapon to give to the enemy. I just love youtube ;D

"I can shoot it. I can shoot anything"
Maybe if he wasn't so friggin fat and could actually reach his wang, he might have better grip strength. :o
It's corner time, isn't it. ;D
-
It was a T/C Encore, since I worked there for years I could tell you what happened if they showed pictures of the gun after but I am betting that either the Tang failed, (extension off the receiver that the grip screws into ) or he let it slip out of his hand.

That pistol was supposedly rechambered in .600 Nitro Express.
