Miniature 1911 Gun
« on: December 05, 2017, 01:38:53 pm »
Someone put a lot of time and effort into this.  but why?   lol
Video at link

 Yes, it actually shoots a real .22 bullet!
Unfortunately, its a one shot deal then you have to reload. The ejection of the brass actually works. (lol)
For the 1911 lovers, you’ll enjoy this miniature 1911 pistol. You probably want one of these when you go to the next outing with your buddies to plink or bring it to a cocktail party for Ant-Man to try it out.
Maybe, plinking at grasshoppers and their little friends.

Two of the most denigrated calibers, the .22 and .38 are also some of the most commonly used in homicides. In Philadelphia in 1990, 26% of those shot and killed were shot and killed with a .22, either revolver or semiauto. Nine millimeter handguns have since eclipsed the .22 in popularity, but the .22 remains an effective caliber, especially at close range.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
