I think James at Hell in a Handbasket posted something about this gun when he was still on his old site.
Someone has a NIB C O P 357X4 on GunsAmerica for $1,035.
An odd little gun, designed as a deep concealment for off-duty or undercover police officers. Chambered for .357 magnum, with four barrels and a rotating firing pin.
Despite its compactness, its unloaded weight is 28 ounces--3 ounces heavier than an unloaded SP-101--but a good 1.5" shorter, too.
The company that made them is now defunct, so I guess they're collectible, hence the asking price.
Follow the link if you want to see a photo of it. Another good page on it is here.

Some of the best back-ups are heavy. I have the North American Arms Guardian in .32NAA, a hot little wildcat pistol cartrdge, and that weapon weighs more than my Kel-Tec P-11 9mm, which holds 10+1, but is really too big for a backup.

The C O P had it's moment of fame in the movie Bladerunner when Lyon uses one to end an interrogation. Something about a tortoise IIRC.

I've still got a small scar on the web of my right hand from my derringer. I bought it and took it to the range with me when I was shooting my Model 27 smith. I didn't have any cowboy loads but wanted to shoot the thing so I put in a .357 full house load and touched it off. I had to carefully remove the hammer from the skin and tried not to bleed on the carpet as I left. Those little guns can do an impressive amount of damage!
