The 2 mm pinfire is a pistol cartridge for small 2 mm-chambered pinfire guns.

Many rifles, single-shot pistols and revolvers are made in limited quantities as collector's items. Pistols are generally around 1.5 inches in length, and discharge a small lead bullet at a speed of around 1,000 feet per second. Despite the relatively high velocity, its kinetic energy is only around 1 foot-pound due to the small projectile.
