Coming to a neighborhood near you.........?

From the London Daily Mail:

Introducing the world's smallest gun that fires deadly 300mph bullets - but is just TWO inches long

By ANDY DOLAN - Meet the pistol that fits in your pocket - and packs a hell of a punch.

The SwissMiniGun is the size of a key fob but fires tiny 270mph bullets powerful enough to kill at close range.

Officially the world's smallest working revolver, the gun is being marketed as a collector's item and measures just 2.16 inches long (5.5cm). It can fire real 4.53 bullets up to a range of 367ft (112m).

The stainless steel gun costs £3,000 although the manufacturers also produce extravagant, made-to-order versions made out of 18-carat gold with customised diamond studs which sell for up to £30,000.

I don't reckon this would be ole' Wyatt Earps weapon of choice --- but it sure would've given Doc Holliday a hell of a hole card!!!
