How Pencil Gun Worked ✏️

The Pencil Gun: A KGB Secret Weapon

Overview of the Pencil Gun

• The pencil gun is a covert weapon designed for KGB spies, resembling an ordinary pencil.

• It operates by loading a single bullet into its hollow body and utilizing a spring-loaded mechanism activated by a tiny button on the side.

• When in danger, the spy can click the button to release a striker that fires the bullet from the tip of the pencil.

• Due to its small caliber, this weapon is only effective at close range, limiting its utility in broader combat scenarios.

• If a spy misses their target while using this weapon, they are left without any immediate means of defense.
