There's a guy who sets up at NGD who has quite a collection of these.

those engines are cool.

ive messed with some model steam and sterling engines, but the small gas engines are a whole 'nuther animal.

what i dont think many understand is that u cant just shrink an engine down. u may be able to makr the parts smaller, but you cant make the air/fuel molecules smaller. it takes a lot of engineering just to get one to run.

Very cool. I've always wondered if there are drawings scaling the stuff down or if if the machinist just pays it by ear.
Thanks for the post!

Some will come with specialized cartridges made so they actually fire and require a FFL to transfer them. The BATF gave them greif over some of the FA's since technecially they were working FA's.

Buddy Hackett achieved some fame back in the 70's by shooting a guy with one.

Entirely too concealable they gota be banded before someone gets hurt. I saw mini 1191a4s in 22 at a gunshow. If they got into the wrong hands they could be used to shoot down scale model commercial airliners.....where do I get Barbara Boxers phone number...quick before she gets voted out!
