    Hello everyone! What do you think about small guns 1 mm caliber ?
    I`m very keen on miniature weapons, and I always wanted to make the smallest gun by myself)

    Not so long I have made such pistol. It`s a golden shooting handgun with handle that made of Siberian mammoth ivory, weight only 2.6 grams and 1 mm caliber. Also I have made tiny catridges for it)

    I am really impressed by that thing. So i want to know your opinion about my invention:D

    I never knew they existed so small! They're kind of neat actually but more like a novelty or a toy than anything else IMO.

    Kind of reminds me of micro fishing in a way (using a long pole with a tiny handmade hook to catch minnows basically). I guess we're on the right track for micro hunting now.

    You are right! I think that my guns are the smallest ones in the world by this day - I worked on them for a long time)

    It probably is the smallest. Submit it for a Guiness record and see what happens. Any videos of it shooting? I'm kind of interested haha. It's definitely neat though. How long did it take to make?

    Could be anywhere
    They are a very cool segment of the modeling society, functional but not useful yet very cool. They take a lot of skill and patience that I don't have but I like looking. I appreciate your efforts.

    Thanks) In addition to this pistol, I also developed a ring separately, inside which there is an acting pistol, caliber : 0.8 mm:D A golden handgun, 585 fineness of gold in the sterling silver 925 reliquary finger ring. All details of the gun(except two Swiss watch springs) are made of gold. The handle is made of Siberian mammoth ivory.
