Scary, impractical, and something that every lefty will want to ban.

...does it have a screwdriver on it too?.....or a file?.....:D
Does it come in .32 H&R Mag? or just Arrow #T50....:scrutiny:
Kind of cool looking.....
 
finally, a whatsit that combines the range of a knife, the power of a rimfire mini-pistol, and the convenience of ownership of an AOW.

I have a gun that also works as a knife. It's an SKS with a bayonet.
Maybe that's more of a spear than a knife.

Now if there were a joint venture Sig/Victorinox swiss army gun, maybe.
 
...and something that every lefty will want to ban.
Being left-handed, I just spent the last 5 minutes staring at that picture trying to figure out why left-handed people would want to ban that... I definitely need to get more sleep.
 
I can just see all the gun forum boards light up when someone posts a newspaper report, "...and the burglar was shot with a knife!" :D

Say what?

Yup, "any other weapon", IIRC. I also recall the tax stamp being a different one too, like $5 instead of $200, but someone else will surely chime in with the correct figures.

If you're close enough to use the gun, you're close enough to use the blade. You'd have to get up above .30 for it to be reasonable. And a flip-out blade?:uhoh:
 
That's also a switchblade and would be verbotten for the masses to own or carry in most states, and is already illegal to put into interstate commerce excapt for the .gov. Also, note the dagger blade. The law frowns upon those too.Stinger made a folding knife pistol, that IIRC, wan't an AOW because it needed to resemble the shape of a pistol when fired.
 
I was thinking about the switchblade part too, but not all states dislike dagger blades.

I wonder if the AOW status supersedes the federal, interstate switchblade law?
 
Now you'll never have to worry about bringing a knife to a gun fight...or a gun to a knife fight...you'll be ready for both!
 
"Switchblade" is a generic term for a knife that is opened through a spring mechanism as I understand it.
It doesn't look like a switchblade, more like a very odd fixed-blade knife.
It appeared, to myself, while watching the video that the blade was released by spring action, which is the definition of a switchblade in a number of states, even if the blade is released not by a switch but by the blade, a la Assisted Opening. Examining the video closely, there is a spring which actuates the blades opening. It is, in my humble opinion, no more a fixed blade than any other side folding pocket knife.
