You KNEW it had to be coming-Gun review of that little single shot credit card .22

[CAJUNLAWYER]

TrailBlazer's LifeCard .22 LR: A Folding Credit Card-Sized Pistol — Full Review - GunsAmerica Digest

You can put enough lipstick on a pig that someone out there will want to date it.

 

[CajunBass]

Yea...let me run right out and get one of those.

 

[Telecaster]

If I were making a collection of oddball firearms, that would be in it.

 

[Pisgah]

A of of thought went in to that holster, too -- the thought being, I suspect, "If a sucker wants one of these guns, surely he'll spend $40 more on 25 cents worth of scrap leather and 15 seconds on a sewing machine."

 

[CajunBass]

I just watched the video. Seeing it in action reminds me of a couple of toy guns I had when I was a kid. One of them was a "camera" that turned into a pistol, the other was a "transistor radio" that turned into a rifle. Real spy stuff."

Of course for those you just had to press a "hidden" button.

 

[panther]

I think my "Man from UNCLE" set had those spy guns.

 

[THE PILGRIM]

I need one to go with my Day of the Jackel Rifle.

 

[Bosquebass]

I think my "Man from UNCLE" set had those spy guns.

He said "the only weakness was it takes a while to deploy".

Oh my....let me count the ways....and it's not even April 1st !

 

[kraynky]

Oh look! It's got a sight, and a lock! And it's only $400 bucks. Just in time to be a stocking stuffer too!

 

[snuffy51]

I used to have a plastic "credit card" that had a knife blade that folded out of it, but I lost it.

 

[CajunBass]

I think my "Man from UNCLE" set had those spy guns.

That's the ones. I had forgotten it was the "Man from UNCLE" set until you mentioned it.

Thanks.

Now that I think about them a bit more, they weren't spring loaded, but the stocks folded out, and you pulled the barrels out by hand.

 

[KalamazooKid]

Ridiculous.

 

[Revolver Man]

Neat concept, but not worth $399.00. And realistically, my North American Arms .22 Magnum, FIVE SHOT, revolver is a lot more practical. It's also cheaper, and just as easy to conceal. I predict bankruptcy in the companies future.

 

[Marshal Tom]

I am now thinking of selling off my entire collection of big,heavy revolvers and semi's and just carry one of these. Much more practical I'm thinking!

 

[Ivan the Butcher]

The gun shop in Utica, Ohio was surprised how fast they sold the first 10 to come in, I ask if he was going to order another 10, Not on your life, was the response!

What the .......?

The guy in the video was way too comfortable pointing a loaded gun at his hand. I've seen that in videos on the NAA minis, seems like people who would normally follow basic gun handling rules toss them out the window when they have a tiny gun.

But yeah, practical-wise there's nothing this thing can do that an NAA mini can't do better. Reminds me of the Taurus Curve, as I believe the target demo is people who aren't experienced gun owners and are happier with something that looks like a cell phone.

If it's a last-last-ditch-don't even have a pen to stab with weapon, why not chamber it in something like .357 Mag? It's not like you're gonna need to hang on to it and keep shooting, so what does it matter if it flys over your shoulder when it goes off? Because it's not really a last-ditch weapon, it's just a toy and everybody knows it.

I think for a flimsy toy .22, one of those die-cast zinc SAA types for a third the price would be a better option.

 

[iouri]

Well it sure makes Glock look pretty

 

[HOUSTON RICK]

A very intriguing paperweight. Not sure what I could use it for.
