Is that the Cobray? Black, two barrels side-by-side, with a switch on the hammer to select which barrel fires?

The other surprise (or maybe not) is that .410 shotshells are amazingly weak out of that teeny barrel. We were shooting dad's at a soda can one day--and the shot failed to DENT the aluminum. You could hear it hit the can. I moved up to about five feet, which was as close as I cared to be, and never did manage to pierce that thin aluminum.
