Signal 9 Reliant (4 Barrel Pistol)

    Okay, I have no idea about this one. Definitely an oddity.  I’m not sure if they are going to be at SHOT, but I will be on the lookout.  The press release says it is designed for concealed carry but I have some doubts… Side-by-side .38 Spl seems like it would be pretty wide.  I have to say, overall, it reminds me a little of that April Fools day joke around the Glock Revolver.

    Signal 9 Defense, an innovative firearms company out of Gallatin, Tennessee is pleased to announce that they will be in attendance at the AcuSport Business Conference in Fort Worth, Texas. Signal 9 Defense will have their four barrel pistol, the Reliant available for you to see and place orders. The Reliant is specifically designed for concealed carry, combining the reliability of a revolver with a profile of a 1911 pistol. Reliant’s innovative design represents true revolution in personal defense and is perfect for either a primary firearm or a backup for shooters of all experience levels. Signal 9 Defense has also partnered with LaserMax that allows for an optional integrated red or green laser that is controlled by a grip activated switch.

    It looks like this is the actual first release of the product that was debuted back at NASGW in 2013.
