Pistol Polyhex


Pistol

The pistol polyhex is the 4-polyhex in which three constituent regular hexagons are pairwise edge-adjacent and the fourth is attached along an edge to one of them. It is one of the seven 4-polyhexes when shapes that differ only by translation, rotation, or reflection are identified (Gardner 1978, p. 147). Its cell-adjacency graph is the paw graph.
