The most useless firearm I have ever encountered

Dad bought two 22s sight unseen from a local couple, elderly folks who needed the money. He picked them up yesterday, and we took them to the range today. The Beretta 948 was a surprise and a delight. In spite of the tiny sights it is easy to shoot fairly well with. The Hy-Hunter Automatic Derringer in 22 Short however, makes we want to purchase a sturdy sock in which to place a cue ball sized rock as a backup. Bad, tiny sights, a 3" sight radius and a trigger pull of around 15#s, conservatively, and a tiny cartridge adds up to a bad outcome for everyone involved.
