Everyone has seen the cane guns and such but, theres a pretty cool one my cousin made. Its a semi auto cane gun....
My cousin is a 40+ year gun smith, and makes his living tweaking proffesional skeet shooters over and unders.
He tinkers with everything from gut guns, to 50 cal boar guns. And he took the tube fed 22 design and applied it to a cane gun. The gun itself is cased in a square steel pipe and has the rubber stopper on the bottom to hide the barrel. The pipe twists and moves down 2 inches and the trigger is exposed. A manual safety in the form of a FPB button also drops the trigger down into position. when done firing you push the button again pull the trigger up release the button and slide the pipe back to cover the action, trigger and all. To reload you turn it slide it down the 2 inches turn it again and slide the whole pipe off of the gun. This is all done with the trigger not being active due to the FPB!
He is currently trying to size it up to 32, then he said hes going to try and jump it up to a 45acp!!! oh and did I say he can also make it short barrel so you can also just pull off the pipe entirely and have a rather accurate gun! Its amazing! He's also looking into some other stuff right now but I though it was awsome when he showed it to me!
He also was talking to me about trying to make it where the FPB was the release for the pipe. Like on an adjustable cane with the little spring release. |
