Ok.
I don't post much in this area because I know very little about guns. With that being said, I would like to ask what type of gun is this?
Question 1: Does it say "357" on the handle? Am I reading this right?
Question 2: Is this a modern day Webley type handgun?
Question 3: What is up with the "No noise. No blast. No recoil." saying?
Thanks.

...a pellet gun. It is not a real 'fire arm' per se. No revolver breaks in FRONT of the cylinder, and you can see where the pellet load in the area in front of the barrel. The only thing it has in common with a Webley is it is a top break hand held weapon, and nothing else. No noise, no recoil because it's air driven. For a pellet pistol, it's interesting indeed.

It is a pellet gun as Michaelson Stated. They break open like that so you can load the pellets.

I forget where I saw this. I just save the pic to my computer and thought it would make for interesting discussion. Thanks for answering my questions, gents.
