Michigan machinist GarE Maxton makes many different types of interlocking solid puzzles of this type, but this one, which he calls The Intimidator, is his masterpiece. Starting the disassembly process requires a special key. Once diassembled, about 20 of the pieces can be recombined to make a functioning single-shot pistol. Other parts of the puzzle separately and securely store "a customized set of tools, all necessary hardware, 45 caliber bullets, a standard sight, a laser sight, a cannister containing black powder pellets, a secure storage area for 209 shotgun primers, a spent primer removal tool and a ramrod for loading the bullets."

I want.

- Edit - So I looked the guy up, he makes some impressive stuff. I like puzzles like this, hes got a mini-conundrum one, but he wants $895! Guess I will have to look elsewhere. Something like this would be cool to just have there that I work on an hour or so when I am home.

Sounds like something out of a spy movie.
