I never see these things for sale, despite them being in production since the late 60's.
The design is a bit dated by today's standards, but personally, I think they look cool as hell....and they are fun to shoot.

P.S. You can still by a new one today, straight from Wilkinson Arms.

Before someone attempts to correct me, Wilkinson no longer refers to the carbine version as the model Terry.  
It's either a Linda Pistol or a Linda Carbine these days.

I picked up one of their little .22 pocket pistols at a gun show back in the early 90's, I almost think it was a "Linda", but I could be misremembering, it was a while ago. IIRC, the frame was gold and the slide was blued.

I think that's the Sherry in 22LR.  The Diane was 25acp.

Yes! That was it, a Sherry, thanks Tony. A seemingly well built little pistol, but IIRC it wasn't all that reliable. It went to a new owner fairly quickly.

My current taskings do not include "airing out" someone's "crib" so no, I can't say I'm in the market.

Honestly, if they were to make them, I would buy a pistol version.

But unless something has changed, its they dont.

Same. They don't though.

I keep thinking I should just bite the bullet and SBR a carbine to get what I want.

ETA: In fact I think I'll call them next week.

If they really aren't making pistols anymore and won't do a one-off I might as well just buy a carbine and SBR it. I'm not getting any younger!
