I have no idea what it is but I had to have it.
This shoots .22's but look at the size of them as compared to the .22lr round I put here for comparison. It has no markings on it at all except for a 3 digit serial number stamped on the trigger housing. It doesn't even have a firing pin. When the hammer comes down, it sorta squeezes the rim of the cartridge.
Anyone know what it is or how old? BTW, it's a smooth bore, no rifling.

those look like .22 cal cartridges used in the nail guns to drive nails through concrete...weird
nope, there is a little lead ball in each
The BBT arrived the other day and with it my CZ 52. I'll have to snap some pics of it!

Nice find and a good looker, has some character to it there. It looks kinda like a Beretta.

Incurable, aren't ya ? Nice ...whatever it is tho... Yes you will ! ! Enjoy yer flamethrower !
Thats definitely diferent. I'm guessing it came with the little 22 rounds. Did the shop/seller have any info or was it part of an estate sale? Does your finger even fit in there to pull?

Yup, here's an identical one that just went for almost $500 on Gunbroker:
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=64315611
State Line isn't usually known for really good prices on guns, but the 6" he has is $440, the 4" I got was $399.
I have determined that it is a 6mm. Shoots 6mm CB rounds and it is based on the Flobert design. Flobert was the first to make rim fires in 1847.
Where/when it was made is still unknown.
There are no markings anywhere that I can find, except for the serial number.

Anyone got a Flayderman book that can check out this response I got from a German poster on another forum?
Who would make a little gun like this that is only for noise? The guy I bought it from shot ammo thru it ok.
Someone else says it's:
Remington-Elliott single shot derringer.
I'm still stumped.

This sure looks like it, but this says it's not bored....mine is.
Glad to see that it's extremely scarce

This is from a book that is a few years old. I'll see what the latest book says..I ordered one yesterday from Flayderman.

New Toy
Well, my valentine's gift to myself: New Remington 700 Police LTR (Light Tactical Rifle) in .308. Has the short 20" fluted barrel which is supposed to be very rigid, and the slimmed down HS Precision stock. This will keep me occupied for a while in getting it up and running with all the parts it needs (doesn't even have sights or a scope base to mount a scope to out of the box!). Hopefully I'll be able to shoot it sometime in the spring.

Nice, bring on the goodies.
Take your time and order the right optics and other goods for it. One of the biggest mistakes people make is settling for cheap accessories and don't get the true performance they can with high end gear.

Finally chiming in for February:
Bought a Spanish 98/43 in 8mm Mauser yesterday, makes a nice addition
to the .308 variant I have already.
When I picked it up, we browsed through the seller's inventory.
A M98/38 Persian was begging me for a new home, so I couldn't resist
Also, a G98 1917/1920 Mauser Oberndorf double date, matching except bolt, is on layaway for 4 weeks; waiting for funds to be built up.
The 8mm community keeps growing
Cam is skiing with my daughter, so pics will only be available next week.
Stay tuned !
