Design and key features

The Thunderstruck’s double-barrel layout and twin firing chambers allow for an unusual but practical eight-shot capacity using paired barrels and cylinders. With 2.25″ barrels, the revolver stays compact for carry while still providing enough sight radius for accurate close-range shots. The hardcoat anodized aluminum frame reduces weight without sacrificing rigidity, and the black cylinder and polymer grips are optimized for durability and ergonomics.

Barrel, capacity, and handling

The 2.25″ barrels strike a balance between concealability and ballistic performance. Chambered in .22 WMR, the platform offers higher velocity and energy compared to .22 LR, with flatter trajectories and better terminal performance at short to moderate distances. The eight-round configuration increases follow-up fire options versus traditional five- or six-shot revolvers.

Frame, ergonomics, and controls

The black hardcoat anodized aluminum frame keeps mass low for easier carry, while the finger-grooved polymer grips promote a secure hold under recoil. Controls are intentionally straightforward, making the revolver accessible for new shooters and reliable for experienced users who prefer a mechanical, hammer-forward interface.
