Cabot Guns, nicknamed the Rolls Royce of gunmakers, has once again bordered the lines of gunmaking and art with its completion of a luxury firearms made out of meteorite.
"Cabot Guns brings the galaxy to your fingertips as you lay hand on the rarest of materials and the finest of pistols," Cabot Guns said on their website.
Cabot used Gibeon meteor for the gun, a space rock discovered in Namibia in 1836, dated to be 4.5 billion years old and highly prized for its unusual patterns of crystallized metal, known as Widmanstätten lines, according to the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, CNN Money reported.
The luxury gunmaker will reveal a set of the guns, dubbed "Bing Bang Pistol," at the SHOT Show at the Sands Expo Center in Las Vegas next week from Jan. 19 to 22, according to Fox News.
It will include two mirror image 1911 style semi-automatic 45s, one for the right handed and the other for the left handed.
This pair will be up for auction during the expo, and Cabot is expecting that it will fetch an amount as high as $1,000,000. Hence, while it is said that the guns are fully functional, if it is worth that much, then whoever wins the bid would probably make great use of the gun display cases that go with the set.
The rest of the meteorite luxury guns will be viewable at the NRA Annual Meeting and Convention in Louisville, Ky., this coming May, according to Popular Mechanics.
