Wish Talk: 4 shot .327 revolver.

[Thanis]

This is not one of those as small as a LCP but hits like a .30-06 wish thread. Just a realistic design, that is not out there, that I would consider if it was.

A small 4 shot .327 revolver.

Do the .380 ACP and other smaller semi-auto's just own the smaller than the snubby area, and there would be no point?

I just like revolvers in that size, and the lack of a slide given the size of the firearm, and the size of my hand.

It theory, would be a lot smaller than a snubby. With the right materials would be very light. The caliber is not perfect, but it would do. Recoil should be easily manageable. Should be accurate enough at average SD ranges.

Interesting...or you could do a "pepperbox" design - 4 barrels arranged in a square, break open action.

Really though, I think most folks would take 7 rounds of .380 versus 4 of .327. I would.

Remember the C.O.P.?

Compact Offduty Police.

COP 357 Derringer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Still a bunch floating around.

In fact here's one now..............

Maybe this is what you're looking for.

Thanks gunny on the COP 357. I imagine it could fire .38 / .38 +P if recoil was a concern.

Still, I would want a revolver design.

Off Topic......FYI
The COP was a dog.
Though they DO have some modest collector value these days.
Ignition was not super reliable.
They just were not great or super reliable firearms.
