Somebody took the “my pistol identifies as a cell-phone” meme and ran with it in a brilliant way.

Just from the looks of it, a Beretta Pico is just as carry-able, maybe moreso (would have to compare thickness, Pico is really, really thin), and is 6+1 of .380.

Only two shots. I’ll stick with my Sig Sauer P238. Mag holds seven 380 APC shots and fits very nicely in front pants pocket.

But is the casual observer likely to think it a cell phone?

If it were legal, I’d consider carrying one of these (and I’m in Canada, in a place where probably a quarter of the people think that a pistol is worse than a Ouijia board—which statistically, is very good for Canada.)

I have a Ruger LCP that is smaller than this and it fires 7 shots. Just put it in pocket holster.

Yeah my son has an LCP. Nice. My LC9 is not much bigger. Easy to carry in pockets, IWB, anywhere.

I wear a suit and tie every day for work

A Kimber Micro .380 in a Kramer pocket holster with 2 extra magazines is a part of my “Business attire”.

I read a mystery novel that had a cellphone pistol as the weapon used in the climax.

At the White House, no less.

Maybe my pants pockets are bigger than everyone else, but I can put a Glock 26 in my pants pocket.

Always thought these “hidie” style guns are kinda dopey. With this one you have to pull it out, then open it up in order to access the trigger. Just about any current .380 ACP handgun would be more effective/efficient than something like this. (With the possible exception of a Walther PPK which is pretty big for a .380, but I’d love to have one anyway because they’re so cool.) Just my $.02.

Now that I think about it, didn’t Steven Spielberg digitally remaster a movie to make all the handguns [two-way] radios?

And, in a Telecom Dictionary, it mentions the Mossad successfully rigging a terrorist’s cellphone (c. 1990) with plastic explosive. Don’t remember any details.

So after you unload the magazine into a perp, do you use the same device to call 911 ?

The Movie was ET.

The Government Agents chasing ET and the Kids were all disarmed by Speilberg using CGI. Liberals wish it could be that easy to do the same to us.

I have the P238.
Very concealable...

S&W compact M&P shield in a sticky holster works for me.

Hmm, ATF proclaimed “Wallet Holsters” that alter the shape of a hand-gun to be “NFA” items.
Then refused to allow them to registered, at a cost of $200 each.

But this fancied up Derringer is legal?

ATF is insane, but then most gun grabbers are.
