Too bad the harmonica part is only for looks! The gun is very decorative and would make for a great collector's item. The inventor of the Harmonica Pistol was a French man named Jarre, who lived in the late 1800s. Jarre's idea was to create a gun that could be reloaded very quickly and efficiently. Several different designs were created and today, the most up-to-date design has been released. The Jarre Double Action Harmonica Pistol "houses nine pinfire 38 cartridges," according to the Neatorama website.
