Shortest personal defense weapons
The 25 shortest of 53 personal defense weapons in the catalogue with a recorded overall length. The median is 582 mm (22.9 in).
Ranked from the catalogue's own measured figures, the same records the API serves. A record whose weight, length, barrel and capacity match a set shared by ten or more records from five or more makers is a default rather than a measurement, and is left out, as is a record with fewer than five of the figures a reader looks for.
