Speaking of things zinc… you know that Lorcin at one time made a zinc-alloy 9mm Parabellum, right?
It’s about as dangerous as it sounds. My gunsmith had it in his collection of gloriously bad firearms. It was the only weapon he felt was so innately dangerous that he removed the firing pin as a safety measure: he didn’t even feel it was safe to chamber a round.
