This is so cool! I don't have any uses for it, but I'm sure if I had one, I'd find one! :-)

FREEBAP. Doesn't the very sound of the word bring excitement?

Good point Edo. I'm guessing that the derringer will be a tad smaller.

I wasn't really too Impressed too begin with, but now after seeing Wills post containing the Design, I'm more than Positive that I'll be buying this.

Aww, great, and I just got my 'figs to start playing poker fair!

I love M21s.
What, was that supposed to be funny, or what?
I don't do funny. Ever. So go ahead, have your funny signatures, whilst I, for one, will keep it simple.

When i see this i remeber a line in the first Artemis Fowl book, "an automatic Sig Sauer in a shoulder holster, throwing knives in his boots, a two-shot Derringer pistol up his sleeve, garrotte wire hidden in his watch, three stun grenades in various pockets, and a "good old ball bearing cosh stuffed down his shirt."

Whenever the Germans found the Canadian Corps coming into the line they prepared for the worst.

I never realized he had one, in that picture everyone has big revolvers and he has that little shrimp. :)

I agree, it could afford to be a little bigger.

*Laughs so hard right lung bursts*

That theres a saloon girls gun!
It's not desiqned for combat it was used for self defence and was about as accurate as me with my dads M16.(My aim sucks!)
Anyway I still think it would be a good gun for my minifigs considering the fact that unlike the Magnum its not going to be the size of an MP5.

Keep in mind, real-life derringer pistols are very, very small. Here's an accurate airsoft version of a derringer pistol. Notice that it easily fits within the palm of the hand.

With this accessory, Will's done a great job of keeping it large enough that it's not lost in the minifig hand but still small enough it captures the petite nature of the derringer.

Looks like I'm going to lose a few of those. Does it slip out of the minifig's hand at all?

Eagerly awaiting every single new BrickArm that comes out.

Nope. Once you snap it in the fig's hand, it stays put! The grip the fig has on the item is just as strong as any other BrickArms accessory.

Nice gun, but it's just begging me to buy it, then lose it.

P.S. Don't confuse me with the other Will.

I think the reason I didn't like it at first is because the handle is a little bent, but in the second picture in real ABS it looks brilliant! This gun is very had to capture into lego because of proportion, but I think you guys have done it!

Sorry, but this is definetly my least favorite prototype. It just doesn't look right. I understand that the Derringer is small and all, but the real gun design just isn't suited for minifig hands... BTW when will the protos see full production?
