Its a pretty neat design, would love to see how it manages 4 moving parts.  

 

I don't get the 2 shot derringer thing though.  To gain just a tiny bit of size reduction you give up 4 or more shots & the ability to reload normally (spare mag) over the modern tiny 9mms.   I am all about going smaller up to a point but diminishing returns here... giving up too much for too little space, for me.   If someone gets one I want to try it though, I think it would be a hoot in 45.

Well, 2 shots of 9mm in a gun the size of a LCP doesn't make a lot of since for most people, especially for it's price. The 45 version would make a lot of since for use as a BUG in your off hand pocket if your primary is a .45.
I have a 2 shot Cobra derringer(fires 32acp/S&W/SWL/H&R mag) that is ok. If it were DA only instead of SA I would like it a lot more. No way would I take it to a gun fight but it makes a great stash gun in the car for emergency. I actually shoot it really well but this is a $150 gun and not a $550 gun.
