OSS Flying Dragon: A Silent Poisoned Dart Gun
This video from Forgotten Weapons explores the OSS Flying Dragon, a CO2-powered dart gun developed during World War Two with the goal of a silent, 100-yard lethal range. Despite its quiet operation, it was found to be less practical and reliable than a suppressed .22 pistol. The OSS considered poison darts and even hypodermic syringes to achieve lethality, highlighting their experimental and unconventional approach to weaponry.
