The Fitz Special, developed around 1926 by John Henry Fitzgerald, was an innovative concept for concealed carry, featuring a bobbed hammer, shortened barrel, and a distinctive cut-away trigger guard. While actual Fitz-made guns are rare, the design influenced later revolvers like the Colt Detective Special. Key modifications aimed to reduce snagging and improve trigger access, though the cut-away guard is now considered a safety liability.
