Der Gladiator

This blog is mostly about guns that I have collected or at least tested, but every so often I come across something I just have to share. Like this gun, from a For Sale ad on a German web site:

The text says that this revolver (called "The Gladiator") was made in small numbers in Germany from Smith & Wesson model 65 and 66 revolvers. That's a "Maximumkompensator" at the end of the barrel, in case you're curious. Price, 985 Euros.
