Description
The Smith & Wesson Handcannon is
a shotgun Derringer optimized for right-hand users.
This optimization is achieved by a slightly-skewed
barrel that compensates for the inevitable
out-and-up thrust of the recoil. The Handcannon is a
favorite with unskilled individuals who need a
concealable, lethal weapon that is very likely to
score a hit in close quarters.
