Cabot might not be a name on everyone’s mind, or lips, but that’s about to change. It seems the company has some incredible talents in regards to building guns, ’cause otherwise we’d be inclined to believe there’s sorcery involved in the making of this one-of-a-kind gun set.
The Big Bang Pistol Set was actually crafted from a space rock and designed with the precision of complex mechanics, coming with an appropriate asking price of $4.5 million. The modern meteorite weapon is scheduled for auction in just a couple of weeks, and shows off unparalleled style, ageless value and a unique sense of innovation.
This stunning pistol set also shows off oxidized high-iron content areas, revealing the meteor’s age. These exclusion areas were the result of rapid heating, cooling, expansion and contraction over billions of years, which meant Cabot’s engineers had to completely scan and model the 77 pound hunk before beginning to refine the large piece into the stunning gun we see here.
The Big Bang pistol is certainly a masterpiece, with two exact, yet entirely distinct, copies existing – only to tease us even more. Distinct finishes convey each different material, with highly polished flats on grips and naturally patterned, acid-etched slides and frames. It seems dueling has reached new levels!
