I bet you could get a thigh rig for it.
I am not a lawyer, nor have I played one on TV, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, nor should anything I say be taken as legal advice. If it is important that any information be accurate, do not use me as the only source.

It has a 20lb spring for a 5" Govt. The recoil plug is solid for 2" then skirted like normal for another inch.

It might be a good "cankle" gun... for an elephant!It'd be a great ankle gun.
