World leaders leaving the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey, were sent on their way this week with a unique gift from Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan: revolvers and live ammunition, with each gun bearing the engraved name of its respective recipient.A photo of one of the firearms, shared by the Lithuanian President’s Office, shows a vintage six-shooter with a wooden grip and a shiny, chrome-like barrel.Reuters identified the gun as a Gumusay .357 Magnum, a rare pistol produced in the 1990s by Turkish weapons manufacturer MKE.The weapons presented a unique problem for world leaders, many of whom were unable to bring them home legally. An unnamed NATO official told Agence France-Presse the gift triggered “insane” responses behind the scenes from some of the delegations’ security teams.British Prime Minister Keir Starmer told reporters aboard the flight home that he’d left his gun back in Ankara for decommissioning because it would be illegal to import it to the U.K. Starmer’s gun also came with 500 live bullets.Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever, meanwhile, was totally unaware he’d brought a gun and live ammo aboard his own flight home.De Wever only “learned the exact nature of the gift” after landing and had to call in Brussels’ airport police to handle it, a Belgian official told AFP.“The prime minister was surprised and immediately handed it over to airport police so it could be placed in a secure safe and the matter was handled in accordance with relevant procedures,” the official added.Indeed, a photo shared with the Belgian outlet 7sur7 shows the weapon in question sitting in a box on the tarmac as what appears to be Belgium’s NATO delegation stood around it.

The Dutch weapon will be disabled, while the Swedish one will eventually make it to Sweden ― but only after the proper paperwork is filed.
