In this episode of From the Vault, we dive deep into the rich and fascinating history of the Gyrojet Pistol, one of the most unique and experimental firearms ever created. Known for its rocket-propelled ammunition, the Gyrojet was ahead of its time and holds a special place in the history of firearms.

We explore its origins, including its development in the 1960s by the American company MBAssociates, and its brief, yet intriguing, period of military interest. From its innovative design to its less-than-successful performance in real-world use, the Gyrojet is a fascinating example of what could have been in the world of weapons technology.

Through historical analysis, expert commentary, and in-depth exploration, we cover:

The initial concept behind the Gyrojet, created by Dr. Robert L. J. Ogg.

The push for rocket-powered ammunition and the technology behind it.

Its use in military and civilian contexts and the reasons for its eventual decline.

Insights into its collectors’ appeal and its place in firearms history.
