This may not be the best time to establish yourself as a gun maker — with firearms sales slowing after several years of rapid growth — but that’s what two local companies are trying to do.
Pevely-based Heizer Defense and St. Louis-based DoubleTap Defense are pushing new guns — sharing a common, and somewhat contentious, ancestry — targeting the highly competitive concealed carry market.
Both companies are doing it with small, but powerful, handguns. Heizer has what it calls the Pocket Shotgun, a single-shot pistol that fires a .410-gauge shotgun shell. DoubleTap’s flagship is a two-shot pistol chambered to use .45 ACP rounds.
Yes a weapon with the power of the shotgun that an be easily concealed in a woman's purse or the rectum of a prison inmate. Nothing too concerning about that.
As you can see the pocket shotgun, pictured above, comes in various colors to match any lady's ensemble.
However since it IS a tiny shotgun, it might be wise to remove those high heels before firing those freedom bullets or you might find yourself tumbling ass over teakettle into a 2nd Amendment loving heap on the sidewalk.
What a country.
What a fucked up, increasingly dangerous, and racially intolerant country.
What? No multi-round banana clip? What if I need to get off a dozen or so rounds real quick?
ReplyDeletePink, purple, green and blue, all less than 5" long, can easily fit in a child's hand. It's not enough to worry about the grinning freaks parading around stores with their AK-47's or whatever, now we have to take cover when some little child points a gun at us because there's no way to know what is real or a toy.
ReplyDeleteit looks like a toy
DeleteWASHINGTON -- Less than two days after a 9-year-old girl in Arizona accidentally shot and killed a gun range instructor who was showing her how to fire an Uzi, the National Rifle Association on Wednesday touted new ways for children to "have fun" at shooting ranges.

Come to Canada. Here in Ottawa we had our fourth homicide for 2014 -- another stabbing. :D
ReplyDeleteGuns here? Not so much.
You can look at somebody in the next car at a stop light and you won't get shot at.
Why live there?
Oh, and free health care... just sayin'
Would you PLEASE start exporting some common sense to us frustrated folks down here?
DeleteI know the GOP keeps trying to make it illegal within our borders, but there are a lot of us who would like to have a really big supply that we can spread around, especially to those red states.
Thanks ever so much!
These pistols have been around for years. Nothing new here. Would you please stop with the anti-gun shit?
ReplyDeleteI hope he stops only when the killings sprees stop--what is the matter, the Food Product Corporations aren't killing Americans fast enough, you want everyone to be shooting at each other over loud music, parking space disputes, and everything else that annoys someone?
DeleteNo I won't stop with the anti gun shit. With your attitude you will be a victim of gun violence. Probably from your own hand or someone close to you. Statistics don't lie.
DeleteYou're calling the gun companies liars? Yeah, guns of pretty colors have been around for years, but these two models are brand spanking new and compact.

I'm with jenny fish. It is tiresome, and the gun contol yahoos are ignorant and misinformed, but logic and the truth have no purpose to them.
DeleteI'm with you. There are times when I'm really embarrassed to be an American. You have to wonder if George bush had never been our president and Barack Obama could have started wit a fairly clean slate. So sad the damage he has done. How do you sleep at night Georgie? Probably fine.
ReplyDeleteYou're talking about the guy who paints pictures of himself in the bathtub. Very Presidential, dontcha think?
DeleteHe never had a moment's regret about sending thousands of men and women to their deaths in a war based on a lie, started in order to impress his Daddy. I'm sure he sleeps like a baby.
Mentally, he IS a baby - talk about arrested development.
DeleteOnce again, you're spot on. One can hide one in their bumpit, buttcheeks, and any nook and cranny, Guess they make them to match I phone cases and Fisher Price toys?? In the links I dropped above, they show one being used by a man whose extremely secure with his sexuality.
ReplyDeleteYou can say that again.
ReplyDeletePS Don't forget to add "Christian" to your list of country modifiers.
"Look what I found in mommie's purse. Let's play."
ReplyDeleteGee, I wonder how many people can control the kick back this weapon will cause when fired? Gun loon kids will probably be getting one and showing it to their friends, arguing who got the best color.
ReplyDeleteNobody is going to be going ass over teakettle from firing a 410 shell Gryphen, not that I would actually expect you to know that, as it has been well displayed over the course of time that you know nothing about guns.
