I think my five shot NAA 22 magnum is considered a derringer.
Who know? But it obviously was going to take more than seven rounds from a state-mandated regular magazine to take the guy down. Inside a home....I’m of the mind that a simple shotgun does the job better. Course, there’s a bigger mess to clean up later.
Yep, idiot reporter.
semi-auto? possibly

I would not have been surprised if the reporter called her weapon an “assault derringer.” Why not take the opportunity to show how awful guns are even in a story like this?
