Heizer introduces .223 pocket pistol

Seems like a silly idea. Terrible ballistics, mind numbing flash, sized like a small 9mm.

$450 for a single-shot poodle shooter?

Another answer to an unasked question.

The real question is: Can the ATF use this to muck up anything else for the rest of us?

My first thought as well.

You guys are thinking it's silly because it will barely outperform a 22 magnum from that short of barrel.  But you are missing the point.  It's not a defensive pistol, it's a pocket flamethrower.

Gee, with that ultra-short barrel, a .223 bullet might even be subsonic, at least with some ammo . . . and then it could probably be suppressed efficiently.   :rofl:

Ya know, if thing was cheap enough, say sub $250, I'd get one just to experiment with alternative loadings.  How about a "heavy for caliber" lead bullet with a charge of Trail Boss to start with.  Success would depend on the twist rate, but it could be a fun experiment...
