Don't knock the raven. It's small, fits in a pocket well, and is reasonably accurate up to about five yds. The length of my deck is 8 yds, just right for a 5 yd range. Best of all it's cheap, the perfect weapon for someone on a low fixed income.

If I can ever afford it, I will probably upgrade to a kel-tec because of it's light weight and small size.

Don't knock the raven.

It was not my intention to knock the Raven.

I used it as a example of a pistol with very limited bullet weight and muzzle velocity but easily concealed.

The kind of weapon that an individual might chose for this kind of attack.

The Raven even with its limited bullet weight and short barrel at close range should be able to accomplish the task if used correctly. That is a well placed shot should have dispatched the millionaire.

I worked at a pawn shop for over 7 1/2 years where I had to clean ALL the guns that were taken in. The little Raven is OK, but the Jennings .22 and the .25 have a little bit of a guard which elevates the slide up from the hand between your thumb and index finger that helps out A LOT when you go to shoot it.

For someone that has ever shot a Raven for the first time and had the slide laying on the skin portion of that part of your hand before you shot it might know what I'm talking about.....
