Unusual
Most unusual.... I suppose that depends on how you define "unusual."
One definition might be my French Mle. 1866 Needle gun, wiht the needle etc still in good shape. Given to me by my German landlord in the 1970s... his grandfather brought it back from the Franco-Prussian war of 1870-71. Unfortunately when I was assigned to Germany the second time, my Father let some clown polish it for me.... He thought he was doing something nice... oh well...
Another definition might be a S&W M60 with an unfluted cyl....only 200 made.
Or perhaps that wonder of Victorian Engineering the Webley-Forsberry automatic-revolver (Eat your heart out Mataba.)
FWIW
