abstract="In Germany firearms camouflaged as items of daily use are forbidden. While reports on ball-point pen-guns have repeatedly been published in literature, the use of a walking-stick gun is a rarity. The report deals with the suicide of a 31-year-old schizophrenic man who inflicted a shotgun injury to his head with typical morphological characteristics. The weapon used was a normal-looking walking stick with a barrel, cal. .410. Under forensic and criminological aspects the significance of a walking-stick gun is comparable to that of ball-point pen-guns. Both weapons can be carried and used inconspicuously, but from a walking-stick gun also ammunition of larger calibres with a higher potential of injury can be fired.",
