* A stingy gun is a concealed derringer. The border shift is a quick method of transferring a gun from one hand to the other. The road agent's spin was used when a man was forced to surrender his gun. As he handed it to his enemy, butt first, he slipped his forefinger through the trigger-guard, at the last minute spun the butt back into his palm and started chucking lead.
