Not sure I have that kinda dough laying around but if I did......I would buy something a little more practical....you wouldn't want to even shoot something like that!!....little birdies might fly away!

They certainly are pretty and an amazing work of craftsmanship.

Wonder if you would have to shoot those things with your Pinky finger sticking out?

Are they actually working pistols or are they just works of art and the only thing they do is produce the singing bird when the trigger is pulled? I kind of got the impression they didn't actually fire bullets. Maybe I'm wrong, but you would think that firing them would destroy them, even when they were relatively new.

Very impressive either way.

Those are nice little guns. Do they sound like birds when they shoot?
