Alexander Perfilyev, of Chita, Siberia, has been handcrafting miniature fully functional gun replicas for over 30 years. He even goes as far as rifling the tiny barrels! RIA Novosti.ru have published a video (in English) about his hobby.

    These have been around for along time, you can buy revolver versions in the US, they are called pinfire guns, and they shoot 2mm pinfire rounds. You can also buy blank, and real ammo for them as well. A video on youtube shows a guy shooting a hole through a soda pop can, I read that the velocity of these pinfire 2mm rounds is approx. 400 - 450 fps, about the same as a pellet/BB gun.

    The pinfire guns I mentioned are all semi-autos, I have no idea about the legality of autos though?!?!
