Irrational Pocket Guns

[Wondering Beard]

It's not a pocket gun, but I would love an Umbrella gun...

Well, I'm more of an umbrella sword kinda guy but put a gun in the combo and this thread is won :-)

I wonder if NAA could make a knuckleduster in .22mag & .32acp?

I have an NAA black widow that has found it’s way into my pocket a few times. I put some cvang grips which really help with shooting
Although I’d also love to have some real sights on my beretta 21a something like what the tomcat has would be nice.

I've long wanted NAA to make a 3 shot version of their revolvers 32 ACP.

.32 is rimmed, and the same length as .22lr. So they could build it on their .22lr sized action, and give it a 2" barrel, and end up with revolver the same length as their 1.5" .22 Magnum models. We'd get more reliable 12" penetration, and much less blast then .22 mag.



In terms of knuckledusters, someone on ARFCOM has commissioned a set of knuckle grips:

Crude concept drawing of how it would work:

Even something in .32 roughly the same size as the old 1 1/2 tip up with a solid frame, removable cylinder, modern materials & short barrel might be interesting:

Don't forget that not only do I have a 1903 (& a 1908), but I've also pocket carried it for a bit. Until the day I realized that it was probably not the safest thing to carry in a pocket.

A 'modern 1903' is another pistol I have an irrational desire for.



Super light, super thin IWB/AIWB pistol, but with a decent sight radius and enough velocity for .380's to expand + penetrate 12", while 7+1 grip allows a full hand grip.

A regular LCP is 9.4oz, figure a LCP1903 would be around 11oz. Overall length would be 6.16", making it possible to also be a pocket pistol.

The Shield EZ .380 is pretty much the modern version of the Colt 1908, and is roughly the same size with pretty much the same action & controls.

Its close, but I'd still want the 'LCP1903'; the EZ is 1.05" thick, 18.5oz, and 5" tall. So not really slimmer or lighter or shorter then a 9x19 pistol (its comparable in weight and thickness to a G43X.)

A 1903 sized LCP or Kahr .380 would be 0.75-0.82" thick, 4.5" tall, and weigh 11-12oz. So just a much slimmer and lighter pistol.

Let's see, have I mentioned my idea of taking my rusty top break S&W .38 lemon squeezer, cutting down the barrel, and adding a big dot style front and an actually visible rear lately?

You might want to look through this guy's blog. Over time, he's done projects like that.

I like this idea. Now I have a want for an irrational pocket gun.
