Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The COP (Compact Off-Duty Police) is a 4-shot Derringer-type pistol chambered for .357 Magnum. The double-action weapon is about twice as wide and substantially heavier than the typical .25 automatic pistol, though its relatively compact size and powerful cartridge made it an option for a defensive weapon or a police backup gun. It was designed by Robert Hillberg, based on his earlier work on the Hillberg Insurgency Weapon. It was manufactured from 1983 to 1989 by the now defunct COP Inc. of California, US (COP stood for Compact Off-Duty Police). In 1990 it was manufactured by American Derringer for a short time.
The COP .357 is quite robust in design and construction. It is made of solid stainless steel components. Cartridges are loaded into the four separate chambers by sliding a latch that "pops-up" the barrel for loading purposes, similar to top-break shotguns. Each of the four chambers has its own dedicated firing pin. It uses an internal hammer, which is activated by depressing the trigger to hit a ratcheting/rotating striker that, in turn, strikes one firing pin at a time. Older "pepperboxes" also used multiple barrels, but the barrels were the part that rotated. The COP .357 operates similarly to the Sharps Derringer of the 1850s in that it uses the ratcheting/rotating striker, which is completely internal, to fire each chamber in sequence.
