OK..how about this..i have no idea if they are even made anymore but Iver Johnson and i would assume other gun companys made long barell 22 pistols..sort of goofy looking,somewhat like a blank starters gun but with a 10-12? inch barell. i have seen photos of them being carryed in outdoor books going back to the 1900's by fisherman and canoe trippers who were not hunting but would shoot somwthing for the pot--"pot guns".something like that could be slipped into a --don't open untill you need it" survival kit along with a couple box's of ammo.for someone who did not expect to be lost for anymore that a week or two or just need to pick up a little game on way out--
