Anschütz 9mm Flobert Garden Gun

This video showcases a rare Winchester Model 61 rimfire shotgun, a smoothbore variant designed to fire 22 shot shells. Presented by Kate Ford and Steve Ostrom from Rock Island Auction, the discussion highlights its historical context as a 'garden gun' for pest control and close-range plinking.
