You have two shots I'm standing in front of you with a k-bar knife, your first shot misses me the other one misfires and I cut your drunk ass throat.

I don’t drink. You got my point, though. A tiny gun is better than nothing.

How is such a situation different than a jamming 9 millimeter?

9MM is a crap round(not really). I’d rather have my trusty sword cane. Or maybe a shillelagh with a rusty nail.

I always thought that a derringer was a type of pistol, not a brand name. Who knew?

I do not know I’ve never had my 9mm jam.

I don’t know the statistics for misfires, but the gun is for close-in shooting—1-2 feet or less.

I picked up the .22lr and the .38 special/.357 mag barrels to go along with the .419 bore/.45. They're a hoot to shoot!

"I do not know I’ve never had my 9mm jam"

Therefore derringers are crap? I don't think you know very much about firearms.

9MM is a crap round(not really).

S&W M&P 45 ACP.

I don't want to be in a situation where I must shoot someone.

Should someone place me in a situation where I must shoot them, I only want to shoot them once.

No it means that I answered your question of never having a 9mm jam. From the story it self it says that the derringer misfired and did not hit the intended subject. Maybe I should of said that his derringer was crap does that make you feel better?

Then why didn't you?

Does backing off your stupid statement that "darengers [sic] are crap" make you feel better?

An aside: It's should have, not should of.

Well, yes Vista *does* make you want to shoot yourself

Must be past my bedtime because that's how I read the headline... Vista is terrible but shooting his brother over it seemed a bit extreme. LOL
