11m
Developed in 1978 and produced by Llama until 1995, the Pressin was a two-shot derringer made to be disguised as a pair of glasses. It was intended for use by politicians, military officers, and other potential victims of kidnapping by groups like the ETA. It held two rounds of a special 7.65mm E cartridge, which was .32 ACP with a case cut down to 15mm. A total of about 900 were made, most of which were deactivated and sold on the Spanish civilian market after Llama's bankruptcy.
