    Well, the unconventional ammo type should be a big enough clue.
    But alright, it's a Cold War era gun

    Is it an underwater pistol?

    No. And Dog, I actually carefully omitted the prototype part because it should lead them straight to the gun.

    Experimental Gerasimenko VAG-73 pistol. It fires caseless ammo.

    Yep. If I said caseless as my first hint, this wouldn't have lasted a day.

    Too difficult?

    If you can't identify the tank, try identifying the hull first.

    The opposite, actually.

    I don't wanna pingpong, I had it half a minute after I saw it.

    Seeing how that looks like an M24 Chaffee chassis, that is a T77 with a six-barrel .50 cal arrangement.

    T77 Multiple Gun Motor Carriage is correct. Prototype Anti-Aircraft tank with 6 .50 cal machineguns.

    Oh dear, I forgot to respond!

    So here's the next one. Should be rather easy for firearms experts.

    Indeed it is the M1938 Labora Fontbernat manufactured by the Spanish Republic. Alas, it could not save the Republic during the Civil War. It was just simply too costly to make many of them in the Catalan workshops.

    Looks like an one-of-a-kind, hand made item, made from parts of something else, an early rifle perhaps.
    There is this lever in front of the pistol grip that in older rifles performed the action of expelling the empty shell of the used cartridge.

    All true, except it's not one-of-a-kind.
