U+1CC66 "𜱦" Up-Pointing Rifle Unicode Character

U+1CC66 "𜱦" Up-Pointing Rifle is a rare and relatively recent addition to the encoding standard, having been introduced in 2024 as part of the Symbols for Legacy Computing Supplement block. This character depicts a firearm oriented vertically with its barrel pointing upward, and it is designed for use in historical or hobbyist computing contexts where such a symbol represents a specific action or element in retro text-based graphics or code tables. Its inclusion reflects efforts to preserve and standardize the unique visual vocabulary of early computer systems, although outside of these niche applications it remains largely unfamiliar to modern users.
