Along time ago a stranger asked us to pose for a photo.

She had a camera something like this.

Everything went through my mind when she uncased this camera.

We were Americans in a different country and we declined

    I actually wanted to build one like that to go out hiking with in off hunting seasons. That way I could get a small feel of shooting a trophy without breaking the law

    Where can I get one like it?

    not for this price

    Leica Camera Rifle Prototype
    Leica Camera is a German company that produces a variety of optics, from lenses and binoculars to cameras. At one time ? likely in the 1930s ? the firm even made a camera gun. And thanks to features such as its wooden stock and bayonet mount viewfinder, the Leica Camera Rifle Prototype certainly looks the part.
    The apparently one-off device and its accessories are said to still be in excellent condition and working perfectly, both of which attributes may have helped the camera gun to receive an estimate of at least $335,435 before it was auctioned in 2015

    Wouldn't bother me. I'm old, and largely don't give a poop anymore.

    Cameras have been used in assassinations before.

    Ahmad Shah Massoud was killed on Sep 10 2001 by a camera that had a bomb in it. OBL ordered his death on the day before 9/11.

    She insisted on a photo all because my wife had a Ghost Orchid
