maybe likes firearms a little bit…
Like a ten, but bigger?11mm.
Or like a fourty, just fatter?
Better yet, 11.4x 23mm. Then it would be perfect for a Nineteen Eleven.
I prefer to call them 45 Auto, though.

It's a revolver, so just use the thumb cross-over (support hand's thumb behind the hammer).
Been done in search for a new Eurocop load. Two companies, three rounds depending on velocity and trick bullets. Seems no better received than the 1970s 9mm Police.
The wacky staff at Gun World magazine did a feature on a .357 Short, no doubt anticipating short cylinder revolvers to match. There would be the 9mm Federal problem with old guns. Already too many .32 ACPs shot in .32 S&Ws.
Maybe if it were made a .364 (9.2mm Makarov), .367 (9.3mm), or .375 (9.5 mm).
S&W made some .38 Super revolvers. On L frame so no size saving, but it is a route.
I anticipate a .22 LR Surefire. When those powerful military and police calibers are banned, maybe you can still get a license for a .22. Improved rimfire priming methods and materials will give centerfire ignition reliability. Heavy plated bullets will ensure good feeding.
Is a new cartridge necessary though? Look how short the cylinder is on this:

I won't be holding my breath.The next jump will probably be an electronic projectile of energy with some kind of computer generation or guidance.
The physical spectrum of handguns as we know them is covered ad nauseam. The next jump will probably be an electronic projectile of energy with some kind of computer generation or guidance.
I think long before we get to handheld energy-discharge weapons, guided projectiles, or handheld railguns, the human race will have wiped itself out with its own stupidity.

I don't think "Big Brutha" is gonna let US have any of these things you all are speaking of. They don't have to worry about confiscating something they never let us have.
Handheld rail guns are really quite close to feasible right now. It just takes some electro magnets, a power source, some simple circuitry to sequence them, and a frame to hold it together.
People already make homemade rail guns. They're currently a little too heavy for anything but bench use, but batteries and powerful magnets are both things that currently get lots of R&D from the tech sector generally.
"Big brother" already allows railguns and other electromagnetic throwers of projectiles. They're not firearms, so they're not even subject to the NFA or GCA.
See, e.g.,
Right, so you think that if this technology became commercialized and mainstream, there wouldn't be massive restrictions put in place fast enough to make your head spin?
It would depend on the politics of the moment.
But there's not much that happens in politics these days "fast enough to make your head spin."
Bumpstock ban happened pretty quickly. Not much that benefits the people happens quickly, however when .gov feels threatened, its pretty swift.

The bumpstock ban did not "happen quickly." The "bumpstock ban" was an interpretation of a grey area of existing law. That issue was brewing for years and years. There is no equivalent argument re: electromagnetic-propulsion devices.
