Very inventive. When you have nothing but time on your hands you come up with some wild ideas.

I recently visited Foslom Prison. Very small but very good museum there. Had several inmate designed and produced weapons there including a wooden pistol that killed a warden in an escape attempt.

Nah, the Kriss is still much uglier than this example

Hate to ask about the "holster".

I would have used a skeletonized clothespin.

Build party anyone?

I watched a documentary on San Quentin a while ago and in their prison museum they have a semi-auto (at least the guard said it was a semi-auto) .32 that an inmate made out of pipe fittings and springs.

This is an example of why gun bans will never work...a gun made form basic parts..so basic it was assembled while in prison.

can you imagine someone turning this in during a gun buyback!!!!

You will be surprised when you see how inventive those inmates are.
