Just received an interesting email in which the writer claimed that Pakistan has successfully created its own version of Cornershot gun. I did not believe it since the first one was made by Israel, but after a little research I found this to be true.
What is Cornershot
CornerShot is a special-purpose weapon that can fire around corners. It was designed in the early 2000s for SWAT teams and special forces in hostile situations usually involving terrorists and hostages. Its purpose is similar to that of the wartime periscope rifle; it allows its operator to both see and attack an armed target, without exposing the operator to counterattack.
POF Eye is a special-purpose weapon similar in concept to CornerShot that can fire around corners. It was first revealed in the 5th International Defence Exhibition and Seminar (IDEAS-2008) held at Karachi Expo Centre in November 2008
The front of the gun is designed to swivel-mount for modern semi-auto pistols like Glocks, SIG’s, HK USP/P2000′s, etc. A camera lens is attached to the front of the swivelling pistol mount, and a white light is mounted underneath the camera.
