The coolest FICTIONAL guns ...

Not as cool as some of the guns mentioned above, but I loved Roland's 1858 Remington, swing-out cylinder, six guns in The Dark Tower.

Willygun, hands down. 1mm ball of Imperium X with a deliberate fault etched, propelled by laser, containing AM2, also known as Anti Matter 2. Explosive capability of a modern grenade in each round, pistol carried a tube of 1400 rounds.

Book - Sten series by Allan Cole and Chris Bunch.

Runner up - Pulsers, NOT really sure how they work, but they are the projectile weapons of the future in the Honor Harrington book series, even though Honor herself falls in love with a reproduction of a weapon so antique nobody knows what it is - a 1911A1. ;)

The above two science fiction series are the best ever written, in my not-so-humble opinion.

I didn’t, but now that you mention it, you’re right. A friend of mine does that. I wonder if that’s why my friend can’t shoot handguns for crap.

I do that with mine, as my avatar pic proves. In my case, it's because my EDC fits my left hand better as well as the fact I have to walk with a cane in my right hand. Being left eye dominant helps too.
And in the spirit of this thread, here's my contribution: IMG_20181117_121955.jpg

Forgot which video game or anime these models were derived from, but I really like the lines, even if the engineering appears impossible to me.
 
There are no pictures of this, only in your mind.....from Edger Rice Burroughs in "A Princess of Mars" as described by the character John Carter:

"These rifles were of a white metal stocked with wood, which I learned later was a very light and intensely hard growth much prized on Mars, and entirely unknown to us denizens of Earth. The metal of the barrel is an alloy composed principally of aluminum and steel which they have learned to temper to a hardness far exceeding that of the steel with which we are familiar. The weight of these rifles is comparatively little, and with the small caliber, explosive, radium projectiles which they use, and the great length of the barrel, they are deadly in the extreme and at ranges which would be unthinkable on Earth. The theoretic effective radius of this rifle is three hundred miles, but the best they can do in actual service when equipped with their
wireless finders and sighters is but a trifle over two hundred miles."

Adds a new dimension to extreme long range shooting but I don't know how these 15 foot tall green men are able to shoot past the curvature of Earth..er Mars.

Sadly many people have never seen the sentry guns in action as that scene was cut from the televised version- only the theatrical and directors cuts have it.:(

Yep...! I always find it a bit jolting and disorienting when I'm channel-surfing, and stumble on the edited version that cuts straight from the motion-detection of the aliens, to them storming the last of the Colonial Marines holed up in the command center... That's just WRONG! o_O
