when I was a kid, my dad had a friend who was a missionary in New Guinea. He and his family lived in the jungle and the British government required him to have a firearm. He was not a gun guy and did not want to put a lot of money into a firearm, so he bought a fairly cheap .22 single shot pistol. It met the requirements .. it was a firearm .. and he brought it to our house for Dad to teach him how to use it. We had a shooting range in the basement of the house and Dad ran him through the safety drills and had him shooting fairly well with it by the end of the evening. He and his family went off to New Guinea and lived there for quite a few years .. carried the little .22 everywhere and never had any problems. Used it to pop some big snakes and such.

I know what it is. Any of you Misfits know? Anyone ever mess with one of these?
