Royal Armouries go through the features of the Russian Secret Service handgun, the SR-1M which also features a cake... “OK - we caved. For as long as we've been doing this series we've given our followers the chance to guess the weapon on social media before our video goes live. Without fail, there is always at least one person who guesses it's a hyper realistic cake (you know who you are). So, in what will be her last episode with us, WitW Team Member Emily kindly baked us up an SR-1M in an attempt to appease the serial cakers out there. 

Join Jonathan as he slices into the history of this chunky, hard-hitting Russian pistol used by security and secret services alike. Also (if anyone reads this far into a description) we'd like to thank Emily for all her immense hard work in making What is this Weapon the series it is today. 

She reads all of your comments so do please join us in the comments bidding her a fond farewell.

While this cake, much like the actual SR-1M, was inedible - we don't like food waste and so we have donated to a local food bank."
