I wish that I could spare the cash on historical and cool factor alone.

I actually got to handle on of the Chicago Arms squeeze guns, in a really neat antique gunshop just off the French Quarter in NOLA.  They are neat little buggers.

HISTORICAL ARTIFACTS are much different than safe queens IMO.

Especially when the "historical artifact might not stand up to modern ammo.
