"The Femme Fatal"

This is the kind of a gun I could see someones grandmother wearing to church. Its called "The Femme Fatal" it fired .6 caliber bullets, held six of them and was made in 1870, I came across it at the The Watchismo Times my favorite blog of the horological sort.

Which is funny because out of the hundreds of watches the curator has featured over the years, I had to go pick out one of the few objects thats not a watch. No telling what a whole fist of these could do, beauty eh. Below is a picture of it in its box. Watchismo is a blog which can be enjoyed by anyone of a technical nature or who is just fascinated by small shinny objects.
