Elon Musk posted a picture of his “bedside table” on Twitter early on Monday morning, featuring guns and cans of caffeine-free Diet Coke.
The billionaire CEO captioned the picture “My bedside table,” which featured a series of unusual objects including two guns, four empty cans of caffeine-free diet Diet Coke, and a recreation of the Emanuel Leutze’s painting of George Washington crossing the Delaware River. More

The entire pic is a Photoshopped gag. But it is entertaining a lot of people, and freaking out others. Particularly people who think that’s a real revolver (it’s from a game) and it looks scary.
Strange choice of weapon. Pretty sure Elons moto is YBNORMAL

That’s the strangest looking, um, I guess, revolver I’ve ever seen. Barrel breaks open by pivoting to the side of the barrel? And I can’t imagine what kind of ammo that cylinder accepts.
Thanks, Brad. Very odd.
The most powerful (3D files for conversion to printed) handgun in the world?
Seems reasonable. The rings on the table top indicate the cans are a common item. Why not the guns also?
He put himself out there as a target for not only nut-job lefties, but also any evil organization that may have incriminating evidence stored in twatter. This is his way of pushing back to the probably hundreds of death threats he is receiving daily.
Who here at iOTWREPORT doesn’t have some form of self defense at arm’s reach from their bed?
If not, you should.
The revolver looks straight out of Blade Runner. The dueling pistol looks like something Hamilton would have used.
Apparently, Hamilton’s dueling pistol was a bit of cheat. https://www.aaronburrassociation.org/post/smithsonian-article-on-alexander-hamilton-s-trick-pistols
I’m sure his two dozen body guards carry “normal” weapons.
I thought it was the new Tesla Tazer…
Perhaps an Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator?
Thanks Brad. I’m a wheel gun fan and couldn’t make it out.
But then we dinosaurs think 3D is saying the alphabet three times or wearing the funny paper glasses at the movies.

I don’t know that that gun ever went into production. It came out at the same time all those goofy looking guns came out with the extractor rod over the top of the barrel. I think it’s claim to fame is someone from the video game world grabbed it and made it famous.
Isn’t that the CIA’s “heart attack gun”? How’d he get one?
Brad, I’m sure you are right about the video gamers.
I remember the 007 game “Goldeneye” that had a good variety of firearms you could select.
Lauded as one of the first “first person shooter” games, it was outright fun!

Still have a copy and dust it off a couple of times a year. Awesome game.
Mustang Arms. I believe that was the manufacturer. Lots of little piece parts.

I got a thing for Single Action Armies. Love to shoot those things from the hip. I can scare the hell out of tin cans at 25. Occasionally I kill one. LOL
I’m holding out for a chainsaw bayonet attachment for my AR.
I’m certain Elon can make that happen…
Is the cylinder individual pieces??
How would that cylinder be as strong as one that is forged and milled?
I thought they outlawed those automatic flintlock pistols…
I’ll go for it.
In the lower left corner is a vajra dorja.
“A vajra is a ritual weapon symbolizing the properties of a diamond (indestructibility) and a thunderbolt (irresistible force), is used symbolically by the dharma traditions of Buddhism, Jainism and Hinduism, often to represent firmness of spirit and spiritual power.”

@DrTar I think the gun is from BladeRunner.
Elon is Deckard…out to kill replicants (bots).
Illustr8r: I believe you are correct!

he forgot the condoms!
NOT a gun.
Please look closer and tell if you see a trigger.
Not a gun.
The only thing triggered are the people that think it’s a gun

We established a couple months ago it had been printed. Thanks for playing.
