Cane gun

Cane gun

A cane gun is a walking cane with a hidden gun built into it. Cane guns were used as last-resort emergency weapons. Cane guns now are very rare to find and are mostly in the hands of private collectors and museums. Cane guns were usually fitted to fire smaller handgun type cartridges, with each cane gun holding a single cartridge.
