Guns for Sale are NOW. This Gun was Then


It was an intention to find the smallest gun in the world. However, coming across an article on the largest gun in the world has fascinated me better.

This humongous gun weighs a whopping 1344 tons including its railway carriage. It stands a staggering height of 20 ft. that is equivalent to a 20-story tall building and is 140 ft. long.

Gustav, as how it was named, was made for Adolf Hitler to be placed in the German frontier against French.

Hitler's exact orders for the gun that he wanted for this task goes this way:
"a gun able to pierce a meter of steel, seven meters of concrete, or thirty meters of dense earth."

Today, there is no need for a gun as big as this. There is no point in building huge guns to be operated by 500 men. It would be very expensive if that is the case. If one seeks a handgun for sale, for example, the best place to go for it is online.
