I wondered when somebody would post that one. I think that’s the piece McKinley’s shooter used, isn’t it?

My arthritis is getting really bad in my right shoulder sending pain down to my hand and it is really weak. I plan on practicing with an uzi left handed. Someday. :)

How would you afford it? Tad real pricey for any one of a fixed income. I went from a automatic to a revolver because OA in my hands would not let me rack the automatic any more. Nor could I take it apart and clean it.

Czolgosz could not get close enough to the president to be certain of hitting him with a shot from his five-shot, Iver Johnson .32-caliber revolver, which Czolgosz had purchased earlier in the week for $4.50 in a Buffalo hardware store.

A short double barrel 12 is far more intimidating. Michigan is an open carry state.

Even with arthritis of the hands, I'd fmm ind that concept stupid. I don't want any one to get that close.

This is my carry piece Taurus Ultra Lite 38. It was chosen for the small size and small butt as my hands are small. Recoil isn't bad. Concealing it is easy. I can shoot my late husband's 9mm Ruger until the clip is empty, but I'd pay a big price in pain for my hand. Then I'd have to take it to a gun shop to get them to clean it and rack in a new round. I keep it locked in the gun safe.

How in the world could you aim it well?

Exactly. One shot? What if you miss your target.

Obviously, this is meant to be discharged in very close quarters or in contact with your target.

Single action, if you can use the T-shape you can use this 5 shot .22lr or .22mag. <$350 with both cylinders, leaving enough money for plenty of ammo, a 12ga 18.5" pump shotgun, shells and a good weekend.

Sweet little piece.

I was thinking the same thing. Thank you.

OK I get the message. I’ll stick to my Ruger .380 auto. I guess I don’t like the idea if being that close to a perp.

[CAluvdubya]

That does not look safe.

[exnavy]

I love that guy! That’s the weapon.

“...nine years in development....”

LOL! missed that in the first read. Time must have been spent reading Medicare regs to have it covered like the electric wheelchair/scooters.

Free gun! If you qualify for Medicare/Medicaid regulations!

Uzi-Pro

I have one of those, also. Prefer more distance. A short 12 is just about right.

How in the world could you aim it well?

It needs a laser for aiming.
