Cell phone gun. Is it real?

Red-'x' ing. there's a pic going around the internet of a phone integrated with the grip of a Glock. Photoshop.

If you're talking about this:



then yes, it is real. Snopes link, and YouTube video of it in action.

Definitely an NFA item (AOW) and, since they are made abroad, I don't know if they are legal to import.

Boy you would stick out like a sore thumb pulling that "phone" out today. 10 years ago you would have been a regular James Bond. Today a 10 yr old would at you and laugh.

Now if they fit one into a iPhone or EVO.....

Ah, a 'Pen/Zip-Gun'. Classified as an AOW under federal law via the National Firearms Act, and completely legal to build/own/carry, so long your state allows such things.

[Of course, only after you've paid the tax to ATF and gotten the stamp back].

yep, it's fired by pressing the raised middle rows of buttons...one per chamber.

I've seen that bugger in a few firearms shows on tv before.

I think the "wallet gun" is more convincing. Dunno who makes 'em or where to buy 'em, tho.

Why won't some american company build one? They would fly off the shelves.

Very old, that thing has been out for many years. Still be neat in a collection for the goof factor.

The gun in that link is a High Standard Derringer. They made them in .22 LR and the more common .22 Magnum. Had a horrendous trigger pull, and the bullets usually keyholed, but I know of 2 different cops that saved their lives with them back in the days when they were a popular backup gun.

They sold the wallets for them all over the place, and lots of cops bought them. My department put out a training memo pointing out they were a felony to possess along with being against department policy.

Crooks have been making various hidden guns for many years. There used to be a bulletin on a different one every couple of weeks back in the 70's and 80's. Biker gangs were responsible for a lot of them, as most of the members were felons, so they would go to prison for illegal CCW. So they looked for ways to have a gun that wouldn't be spotted in the routine pat downs they got every time they flew colors down the road.
