Why a tip-up pistol?Tip-up actions have been around for a long, long time, requiring the user to “tip up” the barrel and insert a cartridge to chamber a round. But they’re still a bit unusual outside the pocket pistol scene. Why use such a method? The MC14 T first came to market in 2023; then, we told you:“With its “Tip-Up” design there is no slide racking required to load and fire the gun. Offered in .380 ACP with a capacity of 13+1, it’s claimed to be the ideal concealed carry handgun, especially for those who may have difficulty using a regular pistol.”
