Try to find one of the old High Standard .22 Magnum Deringers, only 2 shots, but really, I just can't depend on a .25ACP. I have an old, very old, S&W 1st model hammerless, in .32 S&W short, must have been carried by a "working girl", the barrel has been chopped, and a hole drilled in the top rib, that little gun likely hung around in some interesting places, LOL, but it throws more lead than a .25. It is small enough to hide in my hand, if I can't hide the M-59.
I just hate to shoot something, and watch it flop around and bawl for 10 minutes. I don't hunt these days, either, no hungry kids around.
Take care.

Thanks for the info.I have looked around for something similar,but the only ones I find are either beat,or overpriced.Years ago when I played honkytonks in WA.State,I had a two shot derringer that used 22 lr.I used 22lr hollow points.It was small and compact,and I wish I had never traded it off.I am not up to snuff on a lot of non military weapons,but a 32 cal that is concealable does interest me.I know the 25 has its shortcomings,but I have 7 chances to get it right.Plus,it is something my wife would carry,as she has owned them before.I have a number of 22 pistols but none that small.That is the only advantage,besides being fairly accurate.I have fired a bunch of 25s and most you couldn't hit the broad side of a barn!If you by any chance have a few pics of some small 32s,I sure would like to see them.I wish i knew how to use this stupid computer as I have everything needed to fax,copy,print,scan,but no brains to run it!I appreciate your help,as I have been meaning to upgrade that particular item.You can send private reply if you choose to do so.Thanks,xarmydog
