A hollowed-out book. I can see how this happened, if the owner passed away and the descendants just donated the lot. Dang, I should have been a Librarian in Indiana!
The Times of Munster reported Saturday ( http://bit.ly/S1XyDc ) that police in Valparaiso are holding the gun as evidence.
Nelson said this is not the first time a gun was found in a book donated to the library. There was another incident sometime before she came on staff 12 years ago.
That doesn't surprise me a bit. I'm sure it happens a lot more than you might think.
There must be an end to this intimidation by those who come to this great country, but reject its culture.
Police describe the weapon as a gold, wooden handled, 31-caliber, single shot, black powder gun.
Hmmmm, made of gold, wonder if the book was signed out by Scaramanga. I'm betting it's an engraved pistol. Too bad there's no pictures.

It's a brass derringer. Found this in a quick search. It's an Army San Marcos repro.
