Pen Warfare…
Although there are guns that mimic pens, these are just pens that mimic certain firearm features. Crafted by Hidetoshi Nakayama, he incorporated bolt-action, crank levers and triggers into the design.
Probably not for everyone considering the average price for one is around $550.
GTC Knives - .50 Caliber
G.R.A.D .22 LR Knife Gun Note the revolving cylinder at the rear of the handle. The barrel is positioned above the top of the blade in the hilt. No longer in production, very few of these were made. They fall under the AOW (Any Other Weapon) classification by the BATFE.
Dumonthier Revolver Knife From what I gathered these are Belgian made revolvers with “Bowie” style blades forged along the barrel. Mostly used by the French military officers around the 1870’s. The one pictured I believe is on display at a museum or collection. I saw one for sale with a price tag of $8,500.
Alangator Ruger 10/22 Tri-Mag
A neat little adapter that locks 3 Ruger 10-round rotary magazines together. Since it’s basically a mag-clamp, it supposedly California legal as well.
I think I might get one for my ZiP 22 handgun…
GTC Knives - Milano

Taste the rainbow… Sorry, that’s the first thing that popped into my head cause it reminded me of Skittles, well that and billiard balls. An interesting assortment of .45 ACP. My favorite one there? The Black Talon.
Cops with capes & sports cars…
A few people asked what the Italian Carabinieri uniform looks like with the cape. They usually don’t wear it often. Aside from the capes, because they are a military police force, they are heavily armed when conducting raids or missions.
Lotus also donated a couple of their Evora S models to the Carabinieri for training purposes.
Graduation Day? A group of Russian Air Force pilots formed as a what I guess would be a MiG. Kind of random, but thought it was neat.
Colt RK TALO Edtion The RK stands for Rudolf Kornbrath, a legendary firearms engraver from the 1930’s. TALO Distributors Inc. had a special run of 300 Colt 1911 pistols made and each was engraved by master engraver Ben Lane, who has modeled his work after Rudolf Kornbrath. Not sure what the going price is on these since they don’t show up for sale too often.
Belt-Fed Blackout A whole lot of 300 AAC Blackout linked ammunition. I think this was for an M249 or Shrike project.
Another day at the office…
U.S Special Operations soldiers waiting for their turn to jump out of the plane during high altitude jump training. The course is offered at the Advanced Tactical Infiltration Course at the Military Freefall School.
Happy Halloween Gunblr
Done for the day… Same sniper but now he seems to be logging in all the data and results form his shots or jotting down notes in his DOPE (Data Of Previous Engagements) book. Note the uniformed landing area of the spent cases. That or the photographer placed them there for dramatic presentation. Some rifles ejected spent shells in a fairly similar pattern, other times they just toss the brass all over the place.
