👉 The Memphis Weapon, also known as the "Memphis 7," is a powerful and controversial handgun designed by Richard "Dutch" Stroud, a former FBI profiler. This semi-automatic pistol features a unique 7-round capacity capacity, a 5.56x45mm NATO barrel, and an innovative design that includes a slide-lock mechanism and a distinctive "Memphis" grip. The weapon is known for its compact size, making it highly concealable, and its ability to fire a larger cartridge than most handguns, providing increased stopping power. However, its design and the ease with which it can be modified have also led to concerns about its potential misuse. The Memphis Weapon gained notoriety due to its association with the 1993 shooting at the Memphis Simmons High School, where it was allegedly used, and its subsequent use in various high-profile incidents.
