This video delves into the CIA's "Deer Gun," a covert pistol designed with simplicity and low cost in mind, inspired by the World War II Liberator. Due to the original Liberators being scrapped, a new design was commissioned from American Machine & Foundry. This pistol, primarily made from a single aluminum casting and chambered in 9x19mm, featured manual loading and cocking. Despite a contract for 1000 units at a low per-unit cost for future production, the exact use of these "Deer Guns" remains largely unknown due to CIA FOIA redactions. The video explores its design, manufacturing, and historical context.
