snubby

Turned up, briefly

Snubby describes something short, slightly turned up, and often rounded—typically a nose: her snubby little nose.

The word can also describe anything stub-like or truncated in shape.

A snubby revolver (or snub-nose) has a very short barrel, making it compact and concealable.
