Wacky Product of the Week #7 : World's Smallest Gun

by Amused and Bemused

Ever want to just shoot the person sitting next to you but want to do it discreetly so that they are really surprised?

I have the perfect solution. It's the Xythos revolver, a teeny tiny Six shooter revolver, or as I think of it, The World's Smallest Gun.

Th merchant for this tiny gun says "In addition to serious use, Xythos can also be used for entertainment. Colourful flares and a festive gun salute help set the mood for numerous celebrations such as birthday parties, weddings and anniversaries and bring a smile to the face of adults and children alike."

This "signal set" contains the six-shooter, all nice and nickel-plated, a spare cylinder, thirty-six cartridges, one flare adapter, and nine color flares.

You can find this at Singulier.

So if you had a tiny gun, what would you do with it? Would you just use it on small things?

Smallest Flare Gun

I actually have this. I purchased this exact gun in a little Swiss Army Knife shop in Basel Switzerland. I also bought enough flares and caps to last me some time. I still have it and this is the first time I have seen it discussed. Yes it works shooting flares up to 100 feet in the air. Yes, the flare could hurt you. As for any other projectile, well I don't think so. You have to screw a barrel onto the gun, insert the cap into the revolver chamber and then drop a flare into the barrel. Then click the trigger and Bang!!! Up goes the flare. I wouldn't sell mine unless I knew the shop was still in business in Switzerland and Iknew I could replace it.
