Great Western .357 atomic.

Hi standard factory 12 ga. Bullpup. The shoulder cup rotates. Designed for k9 cops so they could shoulder and fire their gun and maintain control of their dogs leash.

Cobray 12ga. Terminator

I have a 1980s vintage special magazine put out by guns and ammo called assault rifles that features that rifle and the sig AMT as well as the leader t2 and some others. Always wanted to Sigg STG 57. I’ve never seen one in person or known anyone who’s had one.

Rem 700 LTR in 6.8SPC - the only one officially imported into the UK

Win Mod 70 Super Grade; made in 1938, 5 digit serial no., clip slotted receiver

....likely a few more as I have some strange Finnish rifles that all seem to have had an interesting issue history

I sold mine, couldn't hit jack. Besides the wee anemic bullet.

I have two handguns chambered for .22 Jet. A .375 Weatherby rifle. A .300 Mashburn Short Magnum rifle. A 1 inch bore cannon, should have bought one with a 1.7 inch bore for golf balls. A Model 700 chambered for 6X47 Lapua with turned necks before it was a factory cartridge in a Gary Elisio stock.

This slide from a Nazi Hi Power -

An unidentifiable Euro revolver that I'll need to hunt up a photo. It's chambered for .32 British Short as best I can measure.

Plus others that might me wonder about myself. I'm currently on a moratorium against buying single shot rifles, successful for at least four years now.

I think it's a 950BS. Back in the late 90s my dad got really into pocket pistols, so instead of buying the Seecamp he wanted he bought a Bobcat and a Tomcat

A pair of single shot Iver Johnson 410s.

Never forget the day when I was about 9 (mid 60s). Dad had one of the 410s.

He was tuning in the Packers on a little AM transistor radio in his left pocket. Grouse flushed; he flipped that little gun, pulled the hammer back and hit the bird one-handed. Never took the left hand out of the pocket! My hero!

I have one and my brother has one now. We are just waiting for the other to die to re-unite that pair!

I've got a 100 year old slam fire Model 97 with no bluing, a bulged muzzle and cracked stock. I guess it's not that rare, nevermind.

I have this custom 270 1903 with douglas premium barrel and Fajen stock. It is unique but not really an oddball as it was quite mainstream to make a custom rifle on a 1903 action when this was made some time in the early 70s. This one is well done by a master gunsmith and it shows. It's also good for 5 shots 1moa. More than 5 and it needs to cool for a bit or it opens up a little. Again, this was normal for anything in that time period.

Love those cool old customs. Does it require the high rigs for bolt clearance? If not, needs lower rings.

Probably biggest oddball pistol I have is a Croatian PHP MV 9mm. Sort of a cross between a Beretta and a Walther P38, grand daddy to the XMD. 15 shot made during the Yugo civil war. Cool gun but I'm afraid to shoot it much cause spare parts are non existent. Beretta mags can be easily converted for it though along with XD 9mm mags.

So far as rifles go I have 2 Egyptian Hakims. Semi auto 8mm, super light recoil and I have a couple of converted MG15 25 round mags for it. Gas impingement operated. fun gun to shoot but haven't had it to the range in 15 years.

Also have an Enfield 2A1 Ishapore built in 1966 in .308 (the last lee-Enfield type made). Again rounding out a few of my oddball guns.

None of the above pics are mine BTW, just pulled them off the web as examples.

Another oddball cool gun I have is an SMG DPM...this one is a pic of mine BTW.

Also I have a CETME L and LC remade by Marcomar Spanish .556 and they take AR mags.

I like old oddball historical guns BTW, also have 2 British Sterlings, Finnish M31 and KP44, PPS43, Tok pistols like CZ52, Nagants including a 1915 Peter the Great to name a few more. Most of my collection is like this....and don't get me started on belt feds...lol.

Awesome! I carried that exact model quite a bit back in the 80's. It was in my suit coat pocket when I got married in '88. Had a black one in .22 short as well. Jetfire and Minx, IIRC.
