This little double-action self-defense revolver looks pretty neat with two bullets of .22 WMR hitting simultaneously and might be right for certain people.  Not sure about the double trigger, especially with reholstering, though.  I wonder what the street price will be.

Think I’d rather carry a Shield Or LCR instead.  Not really the ultimate in self defense.  Might be neat to load shot in every other round and a .22LR cylinder to accompany it would be nice if it was released.  Because of its weight and size I just don’t get it, and what  advantage would it have over a .38 or 9mm?  Additionally, its manual of arms is weird.  I wonder what the wound cavity would be like from two rounds, though.  Could be good option for new shooters unfamiliar with other guns or older people that would like less recoil   It more interests me for its uniqueness and to see what someone else will come up with that would seem to be a better design.  It seems to be a gimmick.

It only has one trigger though 

Yeah.  I saw the video before I realized it.  One trigger, two fingers.  So we need a finger loop hole.  It still kind of seems more like a knock'm downer than a killer.  And how safe would you feel with that trigger set-up in your pants?

I wouldn't carry it if they gave me it for free.

The trigger must be pulled with the index finger and middle finger simultaneously.  This is a huge deviation from ergonomic standards.

The open trigger guard looks like it is just begging to get snagged on EVERYTHING.

They use a magnum  .22 rounds.  Keeping in mind that the two ways bullets stop people are by interrupting the CNS or bleeding out enough to reduce blood pressure/flow to the brain, I rather have bigger rounds that expand to cause more damage.  

The way they trash talk semi-auto handguns in this promo makes it seem like they are marketing to inexperienced hipsters who will quote the same dumb info from their ad. "This is way safer than a semi-auto handgun.  The ammo is way safer too."  :icon_rolleyes:

    • What's the crime for riding a dirt bike on the street? Most likely a fine, misdemeanor at most. That justifies causing severe bodily injury through use of lethal force by auto?  There is no way to predict that he would have hit anyone, it's more like a 99.9% he wouldn't have hit anyone.  And that was a 2 lane road, not a pedestrian walkway. Hopefully he hires a good lawyer and everyone is held accountable for their actions.
    • Seriously? “Sounds Fishy”? You can’t think of a reason why the cop thought that was going to happen after watching the video? The cops are there after multiple reports/complaints of vehicles in the pedestrian walkway and reports of near misses. The ATV is on a pedestrian walkway where there are not supposed to be any vehicles and is moving at very fast pace. If he couldn’t stop for the police car, what makes you think he could stop in time for a pedestrian. He dynamited the breaks to avoid hitting the car and lost complete control of the ATV. Luckily the mass of the car prevented it from continuing to tumble down the walkway and take out pedestrians like bowling pins. If he had hit the brakes like that to avoid hitting a pedestrian instead of the car, would the ATV not have flipped? What would the now out of control ATV have done to any people in the walkway? Would the first person be hit have enough mass to stop the ATV in its proverbial tracks? I have seen plenty of pedestrians stuck. It is never like the movies. They don’t parkour out of the way of a speeding car - especially when pushing a baby carriage and the vehicle is approaching from the rear in a place where you think you are safe because vehicles are it permitted.

    • Why would he think the ATV rider was going to run over the pedestrians? Were the pedestrians laying in the road? Sounds fishy. A good lawyer will have a field day with this one.
    • If I lived in the hills, (or the burbs with a tall tree) I'd invest in at least one dedicated repeater and a solar based system to power it.  I don't think you need a tremendous amount of battery capacity, as the repeater will be on standby most of the time.  It will only draw serious current when it transmits. I think one could set up a reliable, self sustaining private node for around $1,500, maybe less.   Agree 100%
