Cobray Pocket Pal

Anyone own one of these guys?

3 shots of 380, 5 22LR, two barrels are present, and the hammer sends the round down the proper tube depending on which cylinder is loaded.

They're obviously not the most well made of arms, but the design is extremely efficient and clever-- the fully enclosed cylinder has can grooves on the outside which advance the cylinder with the trigger travel. The frame breaks open so the cylinder may be removed and reloaded. Made better, and with a more refined trigger, it seems like you could have a pretty effective little mouse gun

I've seen those zig-zag grooves before!! Can you say Webley-Fosbury? Can you say Zardoz?

They are neat and I would like to own one, but for an effective SD I would take a NAA 5 shot 22mag or a 6 shot poly 380
