Some people like guns and some people don’t and finding commonality between those two distinct groups of people can be difficult, but art can often bring two opposing groups together and these glass gun designs are something both groups can appreciate.
The ‘Lampworked’ glass guns are done by glass artist Robert Mickelsen. The glass designs have most of the details just like the real guns, except for the factor of being able shoot off live ammunition in them, since that would be asking too much from the glass smith.
All this set really needs now is a life-sized glass Clint Eastwood to properly showcase the guns, more specifically the 44 magnum, just as he did in Dirty Harry. Pointing at you and looming with that question of whether you feel lucky.
