Lifecard .22LR
Lifecard .22LR Small and Thin Handgun Fits in Your Wallet - Tuvie





Quote:
Carry your gun in your wallet, it is possible when you own Lifecard .22LR. It’s a credit card sized foldable handgun yet it can fire a deadly shot. Don’t underestimate its size, this small shooter can hold up to 5 .22 rounds, the size is compact enough to fit into your wallet and it weighs just 7 ounces. It’s an ideal self-defense gun for concealed carry, since you can keep it in your wallet, it won’t attract attention from others.

Not a photo exactly, but a series of photos played back in quick succession and worth a watch.

So am I correct by thinking that according to this article, if you can not afford a $100,000 + Tesla Model S or X , then I must live in a crappy trailer????

Not to mention that Marshall Dillon will have drawn and nailed you with his S.A. Colt .45 before you can get that little toy unfolded...

Very cool toy but $399 will buy you a pretty nice pocket pistol.

A single shot of that caliber is just likely to piss an attacker off unless very well placed.

$22.................quite a bit cheaper.

Cheaper yet below at $10?

Probably less liability in learning to collapse someone's voice box with a quick jab.

Interesting and kind of cool, but it seems horribly impractical. I think it would take a long time to get that out and be ready to use it which I guess is great if you know an issue is coming. To me it seems more like an interesting spoon novelty than something practical. Something like Red's Keltec P3AT seems much more practical, and is a .380, i believe.

I remember in the '70s being shown what many AF pilots carried when flying missions over N. Viet Nam. It was smaller than this, had 3 parallel barrels loaded with .22 magnum rounds, each fired by separate slide pins. Carried in an upper sleeve pouch, it wasn't meant for fighting off the enemy.

Suicide gun with 3 chances, because, Air Force.


What is the ideal USAF cockpit crew?
A pilot and a dog.

The pilot is there to feed the dog, and the dog is there to bite the pilot in case he tries to touch anything.

Someone asked the question "what would you do if you found a scorpion in your tent?" to members of different branches of the military, and these are the responses he got.
Army said, "I'd step on it."
The Marine said, "I would crush it with the heel of my boot."
The Ranger said, "I'd smash its head, cut off its tail and eat it."
Then Air Force said, "I would call room service, tell them to take it away, then ask why there is a tent in my hotel room."
