Key-chain Guns

Key-chain guns

Some fuss was made in the press recently about the appearance of the key-chain gun, an extremely small (3" long) handgun in the shape a of a key-ring, containing two .32 calibre pistol rounds. The makers intended it to be used with blank (gas?) cartridges to scare off would-be attackers, however it can also use live ammunition.

This weapon it is claimed could be deadly from 20 yards, and was capable of defeating airport metal detectors, thus making it an instant hit with hijackers and terrorists around the world. The weapons, manufactured in Bulgraia, and widely available in southern Europe, have turned up at airports in Australia, England and Greece since September.

An instruction book found with the gun in Australia described the weapon as an "OSA double-loader gas-signaling device for self-defense."

Use in Delta Green This weapon exists, but the makers claim it cannot be used to kill. A lie, a .32 calibre round is perfectly capable of killing, but the user will have to be very good to hit anything at 20 yards, and it's only likely to be truly effective at contact range.
Most likely this weapon is a curiosity and a last ditch self-defence weapon, used only after everything else has been exhausted.
For DG agents, it can be a life saver, and can be carried into places where no other weapon could go. After all, a metal detector will spot it, but a security guard is unlikely to realise what it is, even after movies like "In the Line of fire", and the recent news furor.
At worst, it can be used to deliver a deliberate coup-de-gras at contact range to a fallen comrade, or one-self.
