    Hope builder is not in a hurry when he needs it! lol. I didn't click the link but what sort of gun is it? Looks kinda like those old school air pistols or even an older spring based pistol, lol. Shoot BB's, barbs, etc?

    Pretty neat/interesting. Definitely a conversation piece.

    It's also machined out of 6 different metals (the whole piece, not the gun). I thought it was pretty neat.

    That's pretty slick! I wonder if someone will try to take one on a plane and if so - would they get detected....?

    Heck yeah, that's cool! Think of the engineering involved in making that thing! That's the ultimate Gun Geek toy! Hmmm, for some reason Ginsue comes to mind. Of course, since the boating tragedy he isn't really a Gun Geek anymore, but I'm sure with the Star Wars thing he still qualifies as a Geek. The question is, could he put it back together after he got it apart?
