The Forte VD.01[2](often called Danuvia VD-01) is a pistol manufactured, for a short time, by Danuvia Engineering Industries from 1990. In 1998, the rights to manufacture were sold to Intermodul Weapon Shops.[1] The gun has gained some international attention as an oddity due to its unorthodox appearance and helical magazine.[2] The gun has polygonal rifling.[3]
Some prototypes of a machine pistol version were built. [4]
