strange guns

those guns would be cool to have it was legal just for a conversation piece but unfortunately they will be used for other means ofcourse. i have a pretty good collection p38's, old colts, black powder, and a gyro pistol that actually shoots a little missle ,although i haven't been able to find any ammunition for it. have any of yall ever seen one of these. there different, i believe they were origionally made for the vietnam war as anti tank guns that were hand held and silent. the ammunition or missle actually had rocket fuel in it ,and in theory it sounded like a good idea except it was really effected by wind. the jet fuel didn't really kick in until about 500' and if there was a strong cross wind it divert off course and it was a crap shoot were it would end up so it saw limited use and very little success in the vietnam war. if anyone knows anything about these pistols i would appreciate the info,and if there is still ammunition for them i would like to shoot one round out of it, like at a round bale or somthing just to see what it does. if not it is a cool piece of american history.
