A very unique firearms manufacturer has designed a folding handgun that can pack just enough wallop to make a difference, despite being able to fit right inside an average wallet. The tiny pistol[1], which can hold five .22 rounds, can be rounded out to about the same dimensions as a simple stack of credit cards.
So, who’s buying?
The Lifecard.22LR, which is being sold on the slogan ‘the last gun you’ll leave behind’, weighs just seven ounces (198g), coming out to less than even a Big Mac. The company behind the gun, cleverly called Trailblazer Firearms, is said to have been constructing the LifeCard for the past seven years.
The North Carolina company listed off the specs that this little shooter holds and those include a steel barrel, bolt and trigger, along with some extra ammo storage for four more shots. You will be able to fold it up to 3.375 inch (8.6 cm) by 2.215 inch (5.6 cm) card that takes it to a half inch thickness.
The pricing for per unit will go for $399 in the U.S., apart from California and Massachusetts, who of course love Socialism, through various distributors, including Ellett Brothers and Jerry’s Sport Center. The first round of units will be out on the market come the middle of August.
Trailblazer President Aaron Voigt, who has experience serving in both the Marine Corps and the US Army, explained his product:
‘New designs and true innovation have been the exception and our goal is to be the pioneer laying new trails for gun enthusiasts, designers and manufacturers. Initially, I had no idea that going from concept to actual product would take seven years.’
‘But in essence, that time spent was valuable and will show in every aspect of this remarkable product.’
From the Daily Mail:
The pistol has an isonite finish on all steel parts and a hard-coat anodised aluminium frame and handle, which means it is resistant to corrosion. The design is also completely ambidextrous and has a ‘full-size handle for easy use’ once unfolded. The gun’s manual includes instructions on handling, aiming, firing and unloading, as well as in-depth safety regulations.
A spokesperson for Trailblazer Firearms had to make sure that a disclaimer was in place:
‘We’d like to emphasise LifeCard is not a pistol that should be relied on for personal defense. Rather, we consider LifeCard to be a fun addition to anyone’s firearms collection…’
Well folks, enjoy your new toy!
