My wife's got a 5-shot mini-revolver. The kind you can completely conceal in a man's closed fist. Single action. Cute as a button. 2cylinders, one for .22LR and one for .22WMR ..barrel is about an inch.

There is quite a bit of flip-up when shooting, so much so that to compensate you gotta aim about three full degrees low. Once you get the hang of it, it's actually pretty consistent.

I can make an empty milkjug dance at 50 feet with all five shots. Of course, this is not a 50-foot gun. it's a belly-gun by any definition or intended design. The accuracy just happens to be much better than what would ever be needed from it.

(a sidenote about North American Arms minirevolvers as opposed to other brands, NAA has a patented hammer safety, dropping the hammer fully into any of five notched cut into the cylinder BETWEEN chambers allows the gun to be safely carried with all cylinders stuffed-not so with other brands, where 'safety' is half-cocked over an empty cylinder.

The wife loves it because it's 'cute' and hides anywhere, no matter what she's wearing. I'm still trying to get her to practice up to a level of accurate rapid-fire. Anyone who takes five full seconds to line up every shot, has no business carrying a gun for self-defense. Hopefully I can get her up to par before spring is up.
