A couple of Darras' handmade handguns

The handmade Martini 303 British weighs 3#s But the Recoil and muzzle flash was unreal even with country-made reloads with filed down once fired bullets.
Even I was too faint of heart to try the second one, a 410 or 41 cal. Firing pin
was removed eons ago. My interest was in the now called ergonomics of the Namba type grip it totally locks both the elbow and wrist for a very steady sighting platform.

Keep in mind these were labor intensive hand filing from scratch cottage items.
