Does any one have any experience with Leinad pistols either single,double or pepperbox?
There was a similar thread in 2009, anything new to add?
 
I like mine- that said, it is clunky, inelegant, and so slow to get a follow up shot that its kind of irrelevant- but it has less muzzle flip than my over under derringer in .38, and does what I want it to... certainly not an heirloom piece, but solid.....
 
my B-I-L has the single .45/410 it works, its not totally uncontrollable, having said that, the first impression I had was it looked dangerous and darn unsafe, I worry he'll shoot off a body part with it and I would never carry it period
 
For most people it's just a novelty, I had the double barreled one and it was definitely a hand full to shoot and was very innacurate. It's also made out of some of the crappiest pot metal I have ever seen, and it's construction is poor to say the least. I can however see it being a good car gun, load one barrel with some heavy birdshot like #4 and the other with some 3" mag buckshot. A carjackers worst nightmare right there.
 
I had one for a while. I gave it to my nephew who gave it to his dad. Couldn't really find a use for it beyond conversation piece.
 
Leinad - legal in pa???

Looking at the Leinad 410/45 colt derringer... These look like great camping / trail guns, because at that price, who care if it gets scuffed, wet, or muddy?!
But I'm afraid to buy one in fear that they're illegal in PA!
Maybe someone can answer 2 questions:

1. THIS model had an 11" barrel... Is it legal in PA?!

2. THIS second model is a folding shotgun.

It's legal, but you can remove the stock with one screw. Once you remove the stock, is it still legal in PA???

PLEASE HELP!!!
Thanks!!
