Whoever wrote this is... descriptively challenged. The only pistols in a walking stick that I'm aware of are single shots. Usually muzzle loaders. The cane handle is the grip of the pistol, with a drop-down trigger. They tend to be short ranged, not terribly accurate and less than 100% reliable.Yeah, it sure sounds like one hefty round! However, never underestmate what you can shoot out of a pistol. Back a couple of decades ago there was a mini fad for pistols that fired .50 calibre machine gun rounds. (These were in demand by serious gun handlers.)  I'm not sure about that one either. Again, the description is far from clear!</blockquote>
