Ah... the evolution of the "revolution" pistol.
First it was the FP-45 Liberator, manufactured by the USA during WWII. It was dropped out of airplanes by the thousands and intended for the "resistance" in German occupied territories. The Liberator was a crude mass-produced single shot handgun in 45acp. They were not meant to be a fighting weapon. It was meant to be to be used as a

Fast forward to the Vietnam War. This little pistol is the new and improved version called "The Deer Gun". it was designed by the CIA and, just like during WWII, these were dropped into the jungles of Vietnam to support the South Vietnamese guerrillas during the conflict. The Vietnam war was thought to be a war of stealth, spies, and jabs. It turned into full out battle and these guns were deemed useless for the intended task. Only 1,000 were produced. None were distributed. So what was dropped into the jungles, if not these Deer Guns? Well, US Soldiers!
So what's the next
revolution pistol to be made? Probably these 3D printed ones!
