What would it feel like to get shot by the gun shown in this link:

Would it break skin? Is it potentially lethal?
I don’t know nuthin bout ballistics, but I’ll wager for that gun to do much of anything you’d have to be holding it against the person you wanted to harm. If for no other reason, with such a short barrel I’d imagine the bullet wouldn’t make it very far.
If you can find how many grains of powder it uses and the length (to find the mass) of the bullet, I’ll calculate the expected muzzle velocity.
One of my reloading books cautions that someone once detonated a primer by accident, and it put the anvil completely through his hand, so even something with a few gains of powder might be able to cause some pain…
1.9753 grain bullets and 399.6 f/sec.
as compared to about 30 grains and 600-1000 fps for a .22 short, or 20 grains and 500 fps for a primer only .22lr
Sounds like you could do some serious damage if you held the gun directly against your adversary’s eyeball!
Looks like it would be akin to getting stabbed with a kebab skewer. The problem might be less initial tissue damage, but infection from a foreign object being lodged well into in your flesh.
I believe the bbs fired from airsoft guns hit with about 1 joule, and they don’t usually break the skin.
ETA: Also, how the heck do you pull the tiny trigger?
The actual trigger descends below the guard (see pic)
If you look at the second to last photo, it appears to me that the entire trigger/trigger guard assembly is the actual trigger.
That’s it. I was thinking the thing coming from the trigger guard was a finger rest, but that wouldn’t make much sense. Zooming in, you can tell that the trigger itself doesn’t appear to move like a normal gun. The trigger guard thing has to be the trigger and the entire trigger guard and trigger probably rotate up inside the gun when you pull it.
