There are criminals among us who are both homicidal and incorrigible. Their parents took a shot at civilizing them and failed. Their school teachers took a shot at them and failed. The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

Maybe, but at least they're thinking outside the box which is more than you can say about a lot of gun companies. I would like to see an actual test and hold it for myself before passing judgment.

Thinking outside the box and jumping the shark are two different things.

I think its a great idea for what it is.

I love the mag release, every pocket gun should have a secure mag without risk of pushing the stupid button. Sure on a combat pistol I want a thumb drop , but on a pocket pistol its a liability.

I love the snag free design, even without the curve to it, it looks like it would slip in and out of a pocket pretty darn easy.

I love the wad of shit upfront! odds are I would have no use for the laser or light on a pocket gun, but it will likely aid in the handgun sitting correctly in my pocket.

I could sit on it in my back pocket just like I do my wallet.

Sure im a glock 9mm man when ever possible, but my job will not allow me to carry a firearm, I can get away with a pocket gun but a holstered gun would eventually be seen. I always have a pocket gun, sure its underpowered , sure its a poor choice for a gunfight, but what other options are there to fit my need.

Most of the time I have a 9mm glock, but I always have a LCP.

Much quicker than I expected. Just though it would be a good test since most Americans have never seen one.

Them Brazilians....

But I'd at least rent one. It might be crazy enough to work. Everyone poo-pooed Stoner's design until Curtis LeMay bought 10,000.
