Default Weirdest Guns?

Whats the strangest gun youve ever handled. For me it has to be the Chiappa Triple Threat 12 Gauge. It was pretty crazy. What about the rest of you.

The Ruger Hawkeye .256 Mag is one that makes me giggle every time I see one. I'd love to shoot one again, would love to find one for about $1,500 and I'd have one for my own.

Seems some people missed reading the OP's statement, "Whats the strangest gun you have ever HANDLED." Not just saw or thought would be neat or cool. For me that would be a vintage era pepperbox pistol and ducksfoot pistol. Both rare and really a neat weapon to shoot. A friend collects rare and odd weapons and we shoot them occasionally.

Nagant revolver. Russian gun that has a unique gas seal feature for the cylinder--it's designed to slide forward against the forcing cone, so there's no cylinder gap. The trigger pull is really heavy in double action because the spring has to move the cylinder, though there's some things that can be done to reduce it. The seal feature makes it the only revolver that can truly be silenced. The KGB is said to have liked it for that reason.

I owned one for awhile. Shot fine, but was since traded.
