TODAY’S PATENT – TWO SHOT PISTOL

The TWO SHOT PISTOL was invented by Raymond B. Kohout (Lake Ozark, MO) on the 30^th  of July 2013, bearing patent number US8495831B1.

The present invention relates to a very small, lightweight pistol which is able to shoot two bullets without reloading. In particular, the present invention relates to a pistol which is generally intended for use as a “back-up” or concealed carry weapon which is small and light weight, but which is designed and constructed so as to provide a two shot capability, with successive shots made by successive trigger pulls.

This invention is a pistol which is small, lightweight, and easily concealed. The present invention includes a single trigger which is used in a double action mode, whereby successive pulls of the trigger will result in the discharge of the two cartridges contained in the double barrel over/under configuration used in the receiver of the preferred embodiment of the invention. In many respects the present invention is similar to an over/under double barrel shotgun in that its receiver preferably has an over/under, or superposed, configuration.
