You know the rules: identify each firearm pictured. If there's something unusual about that particular firearm (not the model, the exact gun pictured) try to guess what it is.
1)  2)  3)  4)  5)  6)   7)   8)   9)  10)  11)  12)  13)

Okay, I can not identify most of these even though I have seen many of them before:
#1: X files Supressed Revolver....don't remember who makes it #2: Cute little Beretta #3: Old #4: Old #5: supressed nagant revolver....it works because the cylinder is pressed against the throat of the barrel during cocking #6: Beryllium Copper frame and slide? #7: Old #8: Steyer Hahn Pistol...the first adopted Auto Loader for a military force??? #9: Ak-46???   #10: Russian contract FN pistol??? #11: you cocked it by pulling the trigger guard......  #12: Russian kid who got a ZPU for Christmas??? Lucky little commie bastard!!! #13: LOUD  ....I mean LOUD!!!!!

#1 appears to be a replica of General Custer's Starlight Stealth Sniper Riflevolver™.
I believe #13 is the elusive HK MP21 chambered in a wildcat variant of .32 ACP, necked up to .308. Its claim to fame was the revolutionary horizontal flexi-clip. Although a solid performer in underwater testing, the HK MP21's military trials proved disappointing because the troops who tested it hated the unwieldy flexi-clip and the annoying Slinky-like noise it made. In other words . . . tag! |

Utter contempt, because it's an actual gun. Transferrable full-auto, currently for sale. |

1) looks like an airgun of some kind
2) Looks like a Beretta, maybe even a Walther, of some kind..done up for competition shooting, some kind of euro competition thing. 3) Looks like some kind of precursor to a Jap Nambu? 4) no idea 5) no idea 6) Jericho? 7) Some kind of Steyr-Mannlicher carbine? 8) Steyr pistol, circa around 1900...one was used to axe Ferdinand, starting that late fracas known as The War to End All Wars.. 9) Looks like an early Valmet 10) An FN of some kind, of course 11) No idea, but looks like a knockoff of a Colt 1908. 12) Don't know, but that's one bedroom I'll never be invading. 13) HK 51B I think. |

There are no airguns, photoshops, or fakes. The ONE time I inserted one to see who caught it nobody did. Now everybody thinks every one of these threads has one or more fakes in it.

Alright, I know the Israeli pistol is a Jericho 941 (or is it just 9, since it's obviously the 9x19). I think I know, at least.
Is the last one a Vollmer conversion of the HK 51? |

1.)A modified Ruger Redhawk made up into a sniper rifle for SOCOM by KAC. Perfectly silent, and it won't leave brass behind. Chambered in 44 mag IIRC.
2.) No idea. .22 Caliber Beretta maybe? 3.) dunno 4.) Dunno 5.) dunno 6.) Baby eagle in 9mm 7.) Mannlicher of some sort 8.) Styer Hann pistol 9.) |

#1 is a great pic of the Ruger "R Square" written as R2.
Integrally suppressed revolver/ rifle, with its own custom ammo. Almost unbelievably quiet, with undocumented but impressive terminal ballistics, made by Knight's Armament Company many years back. |

No idea. It appears to be some sort of silenced Ruger revolver/carbine thingy.
Appears to be some sort of Beretta competition pistol in .22LR
I know what it is, but I can't think of the name at this moment! I think it was produced in very limited numbers around the same time as the Mauser C96.
Mauser Zig-Zag revolver.
Appears to be an attempt at a supressed Nagant or French production revolver??
Easy. IMI Jericho pistol, also marketed by DE. Originally came in a convertible 9mm and .41 AE package. Currently marketed under the Desert Eagle banner as the Baby Eagle.
Not sure. Looks like a crossbreed between a Carcano and a Mauser.
Easy. 1912 Steyr pistol. One of a very few auto pistols without a removable magazine. The C96 is another clip-loaded semi-auto.
No idea, but perhaps it is a different design based on the STMG 44??
1900 Browning designed FN pistol. One like it helped start WWI.
Another one that I know but can't remember the exact model number....Lignose A3 perhaps?
Some sort of Russian heavy machine gun, but I don't know which one.
A conversion of some sort? |

#4) Webley-Fosbury Auto revolver. (just a guess)
#7) Steyr M95 cut to carbine length after WWI. #8) Steyr-Hahn model 1912 pistol. |

So far every single one except #9 has been correctly identified, though no one has yet to correctly identify all of them. Also, nobody pointed out what was special about #6, though someone had the right idea.

It has a slide mounted safety as opposed to the traditional frame mounted safety. I didn't know you wanted that much detail. BTW -- You have to post who got the most correct. Braggin' rights is 'potent, dontcha know... |

No, dagnabit. You don't notice anything slightly unusual about that pistol compared to all others? I stated there was something unusual about the SPECIFIC FIREARM PICTURED, not the model. One person had the right idea but the wrong guess. It isn't difficult to look and see who guessed what and figure it out. |

Other than the finish being some wierd color, no. Isn't that one of the weird Titanium finishes that Magnum Research offers? After searching it appears that they now have slide mounted safeties on several models. |

1)Ruger "R Square", done by Knights Armament
2)Some sort of competition Beretta 3) Some sort of Steyr clip-fed pistol, no magazine 4) Mauser Zig-Zag revolver 5) Supressed Nagant revolver 6) "Baby Eagle" Jericho 941 with titanium nitrate finish 7) Steyr-Mannlicher M1895 carbine 8.) Steyr Hann pistol 9) Your guess is as good as mine 10 FN 1900 11 Lignose Einhander 3A 12) DShK 12.7-mm 13) HK91 converted to a model 51B (beltfed) Figure out how many right answers you got and if you got the most, give yourself a cookie. Yay! Next time I think I'm gonna just stick to ID'ing the firearms themselves, the weird finish was just too difficult. |

Number 7 is a Steyr Mannlicher M95 that featured a en-block clip a soldier would load which would then push a round up ever time the bolt worked, and when the flip was empty it would fall out the bottom of the mag well. THe soldier then simply put in a new en-bloc clip.
Problem was that the clip went in one specific way, and it was easy to get it started upside down only to have it jam. Another problem was that a hole at the bottom of the mag well allowed a lot of dirty and mud into the action. It also features a straight pull bolt. Many were reworked over the years for second line troops. Using more common calibers they ditched the en-block feature and put in a regular magazine. Edit, slightly late, but I didn't look at someone elses paper, honest! |

It's not that it was difficult to notice, as I noticed the finish was one of those Titanium types from the getgo. The problem was that I didn't realize the titanium finish was all that "unique", especially considering the slide mounted safety. Then again, I haven't paid much attention to Jericho pistols lately. |

#7....definitely an as built carbine or stutzen, notice the rear sight leaf, it is short. If it was a cut down long rifle, it would have a long rear sight leaf. It has been converted to 8x56R post WWI... |

Yup. Police-issued carbine. A friend of mine has one, it's a very neat rifle. If I could get hold of him I'd hook up now that I found someplace that sells the ammo. |

I've had several M95's over the years...my last one was a nice WWI Bringback Steyer...still in original 8x50R in the original walnut stock...first one I ever owned unconverted. Held on to it for a while then dumped it to a buddy...I have to try to maintain my collecting discipline! I usually end up losing.... |

I know you said #2 has been guessed and everyone said it is a Beretta pistol, but it is a dead ringer for a French Unique Model D6 pistol except with a longer barrel.
