.410 Gauge Double Tap Handgun?

.410 Gauge Double Tap Handgun? - TheArmsGuide.com

May 5, 2017 by Kevin

Double Tap has expanded the options for the bantam handgun. Up to this point, customers with an interest in the deep concealing two-shot pistols had the option of anodized aluminum or eye-catching—and more expensive—titanium frames. From there, they had the option of ported or non-ported barrels, and the option of 9mm Parabellum or .45 ACP. Conveniently, Double Tap also offers a conversion kit to swap the modular .45 barrels for 9mm, or vice versa.

Recognizing the home and self defense market for larger calibers, Double Tap has now announced that it will be expanding caliber options for their pocket pistol to include .40 S&W, or .45 Colt/ .410 gauge shot (2.5in cartridges). The Double Tap handguns chambered for any of these new options will still be fitted to the Double Tap’s signature ⅝ inch wide, snag-free frame.

What do you think about a 3 inch barreled .410 ga.-ready close quarter defense pistol?

    drmorris9 Practice is everthing and with any small framed hangun you need to be practiced so that shooting is as natural as holding out your hand.

    The DoubleTap Like the Bond Arms (I have both) are generally a backup weapon. Some carry them as a primary . I do at times. These “it’s really a bad day gun” loaded with with .45 or .410 0000 buck shot is not designed for hunting or target shooting. Most gunfights take place within 7 to 10 feet. It’s a really handy weapon to have when your on the ground fighting for your life and you can reach that. 
    I would look forward to DoubleTap offering a 45 Colt for just that reason. I like the idea of having a mini shotgun close at hand.
