A model 418, to be exact. 25ACP, a mouse gun. Customized for Bond with a threaded barrel (for a suppressor), grips removed and sites ground off. Fleming carried a 418 during the war.

I used to carry a .25. I guarantee if someone pulls one on you, you will not think 'Pshaw! That's just a baby gun!'.

My cousin gave me a gun that size, made by Smith & Wesson. I tried to shoot it, but i couldnt put my index finger in the trigger hole and hold the butt in my hsnd at the same time. I tried to shoot it by putting my middle finger in the trigger hole, but I couldn't get it in passed the second joint. Even then, when I tried to squeeze the trigger it lifted the gun out of my hand. I finally managed to pull the trigger but a. It lifted the butt halfway out of my hand and made it impossible to control where I shot, and b. The top piece flipped back and tore a chunk of skin out in that web between the thumb and the index finger. Thats why i call it a little girl's gun. I cant see how a grown man could shoot it.

If there's anything the last 6 years have told us it's that we shouldn't judge a man by the size of his hands.

Well, I had my heart set on a Glock 41 MOS (it’s the only Glock model that shoots .45 ACP that is also pre-cut to accept a red dot sight), then when I actually went to a shop to place an order, I found out the G41 MOS is out of stock. It looks like I missed the last one by only a day or two. No idea when it will be in stock again. Bummer.
