Knife Gun

Knife Gun

Weapons have been used to project group will and for defence throughout human history. Although some have argued for revolutionary development in weapon technology, most developments have been evolutionary. Military weapons were developed by teams of experts to provide better accuracy, longer range and better firepower. But not all weapons are used in military purposes, some of them are used for personal protection. Development of such weapons progressed throughout the years. Almost most weapons are standard issued and factory made, in the past a lot of weapons for personal use were custom made and their shape and purpose depended on the customers demand. That gave birth to new kinds of interesting and extraordinary weapon collections.

Knife/Gun - Powell and Brown
This is a single shot .22 caliber long rifle “pistol” disguised as a hunting knife. It is manufactured by a company called “Powell & Brown” out of Tucson, Arizona. A cocking mechanism is located at the top of the handle. There is no safety. A slide release collapses the knife at a 30 degree angle to load or unload the weapon. The trigger is located just forward of the grip.
