James Bond might be the kind of guy to own this Zippo gun, but you can grab it and claim some unsuspecting victims for just $7,000 (and a little luck).
If you require security and subtlety in your busy life, this Zippo gun might be exactly what you're looking for. Armed with 6mm copper-cased rounds, this miniature weapon swapped its original wick for a tiny barrel, and replaced the Zippo's flint with a trigger. So when your arch-nemisis innocently asks for a light, he'll get more than he bargained for.
Before your fantasies get the best of you, allow me to deliver some bad news: This particular Zippo was sold at an auction in 2006 for a hefty $6,810 and to an unknown auctioneer. You'll either have to track the lighter down yourself or use the detailed photos (above) to fashion your own deadly Zippo.
