Why it exists
Are you tired of being scared all the time?

  With so many armed citizens, is carrying a single pistol enough?  Why bring a six-gun to a shoot-out when you could bring a six gun six-gun?  Take self defense to the next level with the 6×6 Escalator!

Click the “Details” button below to see video.  An internal motor drives the chain, causing the pistols to progress slowly along its path.

Made from:

Decommissioned pistols, circular saw, angle grinder, gear motor, machined aluminum, drive chain and sprockets.

Found aluminum TIG-welded and sanded seamless; nothing is cast. Electronics salvaged from consumer devices, repaired and rewired.
