for a derringer double barrel i'm thinking of a 357 mag.
Seriously??????????? Have you ever shot a derringer in 357? Or even a lightweight J-frame in 357 (S&W 340PD) ? 'Cause if you did, you'd likely scratch that option............... MM

The derringers dont make much sense now days with all the other small CCW guns out there. Especially Bond Arms. They are like bricks. They look fun to play with but not very practical for small CCW with only 2 rounds

A 45/410 might be handy in snake country.

Lots of 380's are just as big as small 9mm's. I see no point in one. I had an NAA 380 and it didn't work well. There are good 380's out there, but you might as well have a 9. The 410 shotshell kicks mercilessly in a derringer. It will rock you pretty good in a Governor.
