History and Background
As a side job of Design Team 2, the Mehgen (Hebrew for Defender), has become an icon of pop-culture around the world with Bellum Sporting's Super-Slide Auto. With recognizable features like its break actions, removable cylinder, and it's ability to be chambered in also any pistol ammunition make is a very popular firearm.

Design
Based off popular modern revolvers, the Mehgen was to be a nifty project that wasn't even supposed to leave the blueprints. It incorporates features like a break action to ease reloading and a removable cylinder for both quick reloading and ease of maintenance. The sights are built with illuminating fibers to ease night-time shooting.

Again we have certain oddities:

Why choose 9x19mm as the primary round? A more applciable chamberign would .357 magnum (can also use .38 special out the same cylinder) with an option for a 9x19mm cylinder. if you are offering a 9x19mm cyclinder it woudl make sense to mention the extra details needed to allow it to handle rimless ammo.

Other than that and being a bit on the light side (and possibly a little too long) it is very bare and really doesn't sell itself. Stuff on material, barrel profiles, the low barrel position and the above inerchangable cyclinder system would all go a long way to briging the design to life.

Alright, added weight differences and ammunition change out.

I don't know much about gun materials, operations, frame work, and all that so it was kinda short....

This is borderline grave digging, but since I am toying around wiht the idea of making a break action revolver for lulz I had to check this one out again.

And I therefore noticed a thing.

You state the cartridge as .38 Special

If the cylinder is long enough you could probably fire a .357 out of it anyway, but the larger load could damage the revolver.

If it is intended to fire both rounds it should be specified as .357 mag

It would also do you good to specify the number of rounds in the cylinder...
