I’m guessing that the mall cop’s name wasn’t Paul Blart.
Had to be Gecko45. That dude was FAF.
The original Deringer, the up close and personal, bad breath belly button gun.
Tin Horn Gamblers and “Ladies” of ill repute. Pawn Stars TeeVee show had an episode with an “1800s” Gamblers Kit Box that included the pistol. The whole kit wasn’t as valuable as the dood thought since it didn’t belong to the gambler he thought. The cards weren’t of the period (gambler had passed away before that card design was used) but the pistol was. I left a matched pair of repo in .45 caliber with my wing wiping brother up in Dakota. Fun to shoot, but don’t expect any accuracy beyond about spitting distance.
Either the mall crook was “Hard Headed Harrigan” or the mall cop used a caliber that didn’t start with a “4”. Fat and slow is the way to go.

“…but don’t expect any accuracy beyond about spitting distance.”
At that distance, it may not kill, but is sure will hurt. A lot.

45-7 has taken it to heart, both foreign and domestic.
I believe the phrase you are seeking is “tractor sized slugs at truck velocities.” Stole that from someone. Skeeter?
You load a garbage can, then expel a frozen turkey at terminal velocity.
The most successful derringer ever made is the Remington Elliott .41 double barrel. It was made from about 1861 until 1935.
I have a first pattern Rem 95 that was retrofitted with manual extractor/ejectors. My example probably sat in a drawer or cash register most of it’s life as there is very little wear.
I still shoot it a couple times a year with brass from HC Collection that uses .22 acorn blanks and BP.
Navy Arms sold some newly made .41 rimfire ammo about fifteen years ago. I bought about six of these 50 round boxes.
How do you rob a shopping center? At 2am?
you still have to break into a store to get any money or merchandise. Unless you’re just picking through the garbage cans stealing recyclables. Not a lot to steal from a shopping center…mops!
Gonna be either B&E or burglary, generally robbery is stealing stuff from someone or some business through force or threats of force. Like you said, nothing to steal anyway.
So many journalists have become lazy and stupid.
