Yonezawa M61 Escort

I've found what I think is what I've always wanted: the perfect wrist plinker for my sleeve gun project.
Have you ever seen this gun? For something so small, it's supposed to have better ratings than my Kwa G26 glock.

Example:

The 'sleeve gun' has been done to death.

Well hang you. The only death on this topic is wasted breath and half baked neurons. I've yet to see anyone walking around with something as good as this:

I plan to be the first one I know who takes this seriously. I'm a frontman gunner and scout, and most times, a shock trooper.
It's not uncommon for me to fire a little too much and jam my guns while I still have people moving in.
This *will* be something that can save my bacon for just a few more moments. Sometimes, that's all you need.

Its basically a cabinet roller rail. And you flick your arm so that the roller carries the gun from the middle of your arm to the palm of your hand. Its in Taxi driver.

Very Good.

There are countless Hollywood variations and real world ones too. Each is unique to the other.

However most of these are not "flicked" out but instead single action spring powered.

If you look in the new Tarrentino movie's trailer, there's a priest who makes an odd gesture with both his hands.
If you look really closely, you'll see something small and silver that the bottom of his palms press down on when he bends his hands in towards his elbows as far as they can go.
This presses a pressure release clasp that uncocks the mechanism near the elbow letting the spring gently push the guns into the palm.

Real world ones were almost always a bad idea. The firearms of the era were more unstable than some of ours and tended to blow off hands, fingers and wrists from this mechanism.
Knives weren't much better.

The only ones I know who managed to "master" this kind of sleeve technology were the ancient Chinese who invented a kind of sleeve "crossbow" that was a single spring tube, as featured in Crouching Tiger.

So, real world, bad idea. Airsoft, plenty fun!
