Movie gun?

dd

No, not really a movie gun but it could be fired well beyond the normal 6 shots before reloading. A French design - naturally - aimed at extending the firepower of the revolver. In the author's words, "The idea was to have a revolver that had massive firepower. They managed to achieve the stated goal, but the gun still sucked."<br />
<br />
Can you identify it and tell us more about it?<br />

Very interesting when you consider the age of it. <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/shellssm1.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':shellssm1:' /> <br />

It is called "Le Surrender Pistol" You fire the "massive" firepower-- kinda looks like about .25 cal -- just once, put you hands up, and say "When will the Americans be here to save us?"<br />

How about, "Never fired, dropped once."<br />
