The Calico Liberty 3 pistol.

First time I saw this was 20 years ago in the original Total Recall movie. I thought it was a 'sci fi' gun prop but I just found tonight it's real :lol:

It's the weirdest looking one, right :lol:

I think "James West" on Youtube had one of these years ago, I don't think he ever got it working properly :-)

Delayed blowback roller locking action with 50-100 rounnd helical fed magazine. Same action type as Korth and H&K so extremely reliable, I remember lusting after one as a young fella :)
