FITZ Special Revolver

This picture was emailed to me last night with write-up.
A modified Colt revolver called a "Fitz Special". John Henry Fitzgerald was "Mr. Colt" between the two World Wars, traveling to all the large pistol matches, shooting and fixing Colts, and being a genuinely good ambassador for Colt. Fitz was considered a firearms expert, and spent much time lecturing and instructing both target and defensive shooting. "Perhaps some would like to ask why I cut up a good revolver and here is the answer: The trigger guard is cut away to allow more finger room and for use when gloves are worn. The hammer spur is cut away to allow drawing from the pocket or from under the coat without catching or snagging in the cloth and eliminates the use of thumb over hammer when drawing. The butt is rounded to allow the revolver to easily slide into firing position in the hand. The top of the cut-away hammer may be lightly checked to assist in cocking for a long-range shot."

4-Barrel Shotgun

This was emailed to me, I added one picture and some history.
There are several stories about this unusual shotgun.

First, the popular photo of such as weapon appears on the Internet, shown below. In fact this is a homemade version of such a unique weapon.

















Next I was only able to find one picture of the manufactured version, shown below. These were real, they were made by a company called FAMARS Rombo. The model was four-barreled break-action shotgun made at FAMARS factory in Italy.
The shotgun was produced in 28 gauge and .410 bore, and was primarily designed for small-game hunting. It is notable for having a complex action, which allows all four barrels to be fired consecutively and sequentially using just the one trigger.
FAMARS Rombo website does not have any pictures of this unique weapon and they have since stop manufacturing it. They are a custom maker of shotguns.
The last one of these 4-barreled shotguns sold at auction for an estimated $65,000 US Dollars.

Finally, the gun was used in a comic strip, a video game, and a movie. This led to the myth it was created by the entertainment industry. The fact is it was real, the publishers, video game makers, and movie makers used the concept.
If anyone has a picture of this weapon other than the two shown, please share it with us.
Thanks,

Gun Katar

Emailed to me yesterday. I found a few additional pictures myself to add.
The Medieval Katar is a traditional Indian punch dagger, primarily a thrusting weapon.
The katar is the oldest and most characteristic of the Indian knife weapons. The peculiarity lies in the handle which is made up of two parallel bars connected by two, or more, cross pieces, one of which is at the end of the side bars and is fastened to the blade. The remainder forms the handle which is at right angle to the blade. The blades are always double-edged and are generally straight and with lengths from a few inches to about 3 feet. The blades of southern India are often made broad at the hilt and taper in straight lines to the point, and elaborately ribbed by grooves parallel to the edges. European blades of the 16th and 17th centuries were often used, especially by the Mahrattas and were always riveted to projections from the hilt. Katars with native blades are often thickened at the point to strengthen them.

M3/M3A1 WWII Circa Grease Gun 30 Round .45 ACP Full Auto U.S. Combat Assault Weapon

Emailed to me from a collector:

Winchester 1895 British 303 Lever Action Rifle

1953 German Mauser

This was recently emailed to me.
One of our new followers needs our help with this firearm.
Read his request .... If anyone has can help this guy out, please post your answer here under 'comments.'
















































I just came across your blog while attempting to gather information on a Mauser I inherited from my dad.
He purchased this rifle while stationed in Germany back around 1953 - 55. After purchase, he then sent it to an Austrian gunsmith who installed the permanent scope mounts. It appears that they are not standard but extremely ornate and engraved.
The scope itself says Ziel 4x81
I contacted FN in Belgium and provided them with the serial numbers on the rifle with the hope they could provide me with more information on it but unfortunately all they could tell me about the rifle was that it was manufactured in 1953.
If you could provide any information you may have on it or any other internet sites which could help me II would greatly appreciate it. I've attached some photos I took of the receiver top and the scope mount but unfortunately they aren't very good quality. Feel free to use them if you wish.
Thank you for your time,
Sincerely,
Don
