Okay class, we have established the origin of the most complete concealed carry handgun known to mankind. Now as we delve further into this time proven marvel, can anyone point out areas where snubs are verboten?

I believe Suckcago is one location for starters.
 
I don't know of any place that bans short guns per se, but the feds use a formula partly based on physical size to determine if a gun is "sporting" enough for import. That's why so many surplus pistols have those crappy "target" grips on them because they get points for target features. Chicago bans all handguns, not just small ones.
 
soCal...yuck

Los Angeles City for sure voted out "Saturday Night Specials."

Pretty much knocked out most short barreled handguns.
 
A $580 Saturday Night Special (e.g., S&W 340PD)? Must have some "rich" poor people around somewhere!
 
I am curious because I have heard that snubs will be one of the next firearms deemed "eeeeevil". The misery of of these politicians knowing there are folks out there like me with snubs is a source of great pleasure to me.
 
I'm not 100% certain, but I think handguns with barrel lengths of under 3 inches are banned in Cleveland. There was a ruckus 25 or so years ago where the city council declared a ban on snubbies and "Saturday Night Specials," but the law was tossed by a local judge. The city just turned around and enacted a hangun registration law, including, I believe, a ban on snubbies. The police claim that not more than about 10-12% of handguns were ever registered.
 
Haven't these political jokers figured out yet that longer barrels make for faster (deadlier?) bullets? Once again, the law of unintended consequences triumphs over faulty reasoning.
