    I kinda want to buy a handgun just because taking them apart and putting them together looks fun. I know they make fidget toys for that but tue ones I’ve seen are too simplified.

      I have to hand it to you, this is the most unique reason I’ve heard to buy a gun before.

        Seems like a mighty silly way to blow $500+ bucks. On a puzzle that shoots bullets.

        You gotta admit, the mechanics of some of them are quite cool.

          It’s all fun and gun lube until you have to put back together a trigger assembly.

      Im a believer of responsible gun ownership and I do think things like sport shooting and interest in the mechanics are a totally valid thing. Safety being the most important aspect

      Also you should check out the forgotten weapons channel on youtube lots of good history also weapons with weird mechanisms

      I assume you’ve tried the game: World of Guns: Guns Disassembly (Steam link)?

      A realistically disassembleable toy gun would go hard
