Yes, he's shooting! The smallest combat revolver was made in Switzerland
Are you looking for an extraordinary and very expensive way to fight cockroaches or mice? Pay attention to the Swiss Mini Gun — the smallest revolver in the world. Despite the frivolous size, this is a real firearm with live ammunition.
The dimensions of the Swiss Mini Gun are impressive. This weapon has a length of 5.5 cm, a height of 3.5 cm, a width of 1 cm and a weight of 19.8 grams. Because of its size, the revolver got into the Guinness Book of Records and ... banned. It cannot be imported into the United States and the United Kingdom, since concealed carry weapons are prohibited in these countries.
The Swiss revolver has the same functions as its full-scale counterparts. Masters from the country of watchmakers made miniature weapons and cartridges in accordance with all the canons of the industry. The small Swiss Mini Gun drum is loaded with tiny cartridges, which can only be taken with tweezers.
The catalog of the manufacturer of this weapon masterpiece dryly informs potential buyers of its price. The revolver, whose factory name looks like a "Mini-pistol C1ST", will cost lovers of curiosities $ 6820 (484 thousand rubles). The kit includes a leather holster, 24 live and 24 blank cartridges and a cleaning kit. There is a ring on the holster to hang the revolver to the belt or as a keychain to the keys.
For rich gourmets, there is an 18-carat gold version in a green maple box. In this version, the revolver, in addition to the usual cartridges, also receives 36 flares. The manufacturer modestly keeps silent about the price of the golden version of the weapon. Obviously, because it is made to order, taking into account the wishes of the client.
Of course, everyone is concerned about the question of whether it is possible to kill a person with a Swiss Mini Gun. There is an opinion that it is possible, because it was not for nothing that it was banned in the USA and the UK. But the manufacturer of the miniature pistol doubts that it can even seriously injure someone. There is such information on the company's website:
Steven Howard, an expert in the field of ballistics, suggested that theoretically the weapon is dangerous. But to shoot a person with his bullet, you need to take into account too many conditions. You will have to shoot from as close a distance as possible, and you need to aim at a certain point of the head. But even in this case, the chance to inflict a fatal wound is scanty.
If the Swiss Mini Gun is the smallest revolver, then the pantgun is the largest gun in the world. It is easy to kill ducks from it, and 50 pieces at once.
