This 2.16 inch Colt Python replica is a real gun that actually shoots 0.35 inch bullets. The gun was crafted using swiss watchmaking technology. The little bullets go 426 feet per second, so watch out. However, you'll have a tough time picking one of these up, as the site has been removed due to legal threats. Probably a good thing.
