The gun's name is an initialism for "Fuck Gun Control", where the "9" refers to its 9mm cartridge. [7] Released with accompanying documentation to aid its production and assembly, as well as the production of suitable ammunition, the FGC-9 is premised on the idea of undermining worldwide gun control.
With a DA revolver, the hammer can be cocked first (single action), or the trigger can be pulled and it will cock and release the hammer (double action). [1] Once the gun has fired, the hammer stays in the decocked position until the hammer is re-cocked (single action), or the trigger is pulled again (double action).

The Farquharson Rifle is a single-shot hammerless falling-block action rifle designed and patented by John Farquharson (1833-1893), [1] of Daldhu, Scotland in 1872. George Gibbs, a gun maker in Bristol, became a co-owner of the Farquharson patent in 1875 and was the sole maker of Farquharson rifles until the patent expired.
Although bolt-action guns are usually associated with fixed or detachable box magazines, in fact, the first general-issue military breechloader was a single-shot bolt action: the paper-cartridge Prussian needle gun of 1841. France countered in 1866 with its superior Chassepot rifle, also a paper-cartridge bolt action.
The gun was available in 3" and 4" version. Some more interesting guns then began to be made, and the "Texas Scout" also became available in .45 blank. Herbert Schmidt then also made a double-action revolver, the "Buffalo Combo", a .38 - .22lr convertible. Some time in the late 1990s, the company disappeared.
