12 Corner-Peering Rifles For Sneaky Shooters

Just standing there, shooting straight at the enemy hasn’t worked since the 1800s (or at least the last Die Hard). Cover is king when it comes to gun fights, and these 12 periscope rifles from our friends at Oobject let you shoot without giving your opponent anything to shoot at.

When you’re done “rifling” through these images, check out these 14 camera guns, some non-gun guns, and 12 guns concealed in the craziest places.
