It was made to resemble a 6 shot, western style pistol, but was a single shot. Few were made, so I think that they are quite rare.

It like almost all guns most likely shot better than I could. I really liked how the hammer was made of 3 flats of metal with the center one cut different to form the firing pin. I have owned 2 different Trejo 22 autos but never the full auto one.

By the way, I suggest you to search an intesting pistol: The Trejo “Ráfaga” pistol, a little .22 selective fire pistol.

There are blueprints and many more photos on my blog: http://www.jamesrpatrick.com/2014/05/pep22-single-shot-22lr-pistol-part-1.html

Very inexpensive materials (about $30) and very labor intensive build process.
