I figure it doesn't break open either. I handled one about 40 years ago, and I suffer from C.R.S. (Can't Remember S----)

This is the modern version of the liberator . Its cost a total of 25 dollars to make prolly minus the printer ! All plastic components and it definitely takes the cake in the ugliest gun so far

We are not sure about the revolver. It's a .320 Bulldog we think. Pre 1910.

The Beretta is from 1934 and shoots well.

What is that skull cracker on the magazine called? I remember one of my uncles having a pistol with one of those, supposedly for breaking through skulls in hand to hand combat (from what he told me)

Came with 10 rounds stored in the grip. Use them up and throw it away.

I think thats just a finger extension so all your fingers can fit on the grip for better control

Since I'm such a low tech guy, I don't have a picture of it, but years ago a Wesson rifle came to me.
(I'm so low tech: my boat still has breaker points and a 2 BBL carberator, and I'm trying to be the last person in the US to get a cell phone)

It is a oxtagon barrel, break open, single shot, in about .38 or .40 cal. rimfire. The ammo looks like a great big .22LR bullet.
It has two triggers, you'd think one was a 'set trigger' but the front one operates the break open latch.
It was made in the late 1800's by the same Wesson that later hooked up with another gun guy, and they became Smith & Wesson,

Not a real gun but when I was 6 or 7 I was amazed by it. Looked like a radio and you press a button and a cap gun appears from it.

Right. I know its called a magazine extension, but there was another name for it, like skull cracker, but not skull cracker.

The allies dropped many of them with 'Ruperts'.
It was a doll that looked like a British paratrooper. They'd toss them out of planes in the same formations as real paratroopers went out.
They had a backpack that held a Liberty pistol, a candy bar, and a explosives or incendiary package.
Kids would run and search all over to find them for the candy bars, and give the weapons to their Dad or big brother.

When the Germans mounted up and chased all over to fight the air borne 'invasions',,,,,
and only found the Ruperts, they got so mad and piled them all up and burned them.
Word is there is only 2 or 3 of them left in British museums.
