I wondered once but I didn't click.

Snubby.

Snub-nose:

 

[bbbass]

Stubbed

How about....

snub-nosed .. if that's how the factory made it
snubbed-nose .. if the barrel was shortened (or you purposely and obviously ignored it at a party)

Snub-nosed is, I believe, the correct and accurate term. Or maybe not, cause the wife says I'm Mr. Never Right

 

[CountryGent]

Snub.

 

[Ura-Ki]

Well, We always called um Snub-Nose, I hear them referred to all the time as Snubbies, or Snubbed Nosed, but I believe the classic term is SNUB-NOSE! IF you really want to get serious I would imagine a search of F.B.I. reports would yeld a definitive answer!

 

[titsonritz]

How about stub-nose?

I got a cat named 'Stub' cuz he's a Manx and they don't have tails.

Short barrel revolvers are 'Snub-Nose''.

There's no such a thing as 'snubbies' or 'shotties' unless you're 5 years old and talk with lisp...

Ugh. "Shotty" is one of the few gun terms that actually annoys me. No idea why.

 

[MannyGlocks]

For reasons I don't understand, there's a segment of folk who like to infantilize words.

Another example: Calling flounder 'flatties' - when they do that sort of weirdo word-speak, I'd like to hand em a 'binky', a baby bottle full of warm mother's milk and a small 'blanky'...

Snub nose or snubbed nose?

Snub nose: An uptown witch who thinks she's better than everyone.

Snubbed nose: Is what I get when asking uptown witch to dance!

Just remember - never 'Gangster Flip' your snub-nose revolver.

I used to have an aunt named "Shotty". I don't know why though.

I had to google "gangster flip" to see what it is. Now I feel slightly less embarrassed about the occasional carrying of a snub tucked into a waistband.

Me too - along with the term used for one brand - Mossy.

I've noticed clandestine 'thumb suckers' speak baby talk...ugh...
