Now that's just weird

Looks like it would be hard to get into your hand quickly and I can't imagine the recoil feeling good against the back of your fingers.

 

[Coyote3855]

What ARE they thinking?

 

[Iggy]

DUH!!

 

[armoredman]

The evolution of the belt buckle gun?

 

[On An Island]

Makes me think of a Machete movie.

 

[9mmfan]

It certainly is different. I wish the website had more information. I see that it should be launched on the 20th of this month. I'm going to assume that means the website and not the gun.

It will be interesting to see if anything comes of this. Wasn't there a modern "palm pistol" that was supposed to be in the works a few years back? Marketed towards the elderly or some such?

Vaporware.

I don't see it as anything more than a distraction IMHO

There will always be someone trying to reinvent the wheel...

Now if it would fit inside something like a cigarette pack, that'd be cool for my secret agent fantasies. Looks a little too big for that sadly in the firearmblog.com pics.

And the $800 price tag doesn't exactly make me want to run out and buy one just for kicks...

 

[armoredman]

Maybe it's one of the props from the movie El Mariachi?

 

[torqem]

What's actually weird is that anyone will buy, much less carry for defense, any sort of derringer or mini-revolver. There are so many choices that are much better suited to the task, plenty lw and compact enough, and which cost little or no more than those things.

 

[rhinoh]

Is that the same Bondhus that makes allen wrenches (hex keys)?

 

[Inebriated]

This looks more like it's on the offensive side of the ball, rather than the defensive. I just don't see how that's at all practical unless you know you're going to shoot somebody and already have it out and ready.

 

[RX-79G]

Got to admire thinking outside the box.

 

[F-111 John]

Will it need a tax stamp as an AOW?

 

[toiville2feathers]

Could be the same Bondus that makes hex keys, they are in the same town as DPMS. When I saw it I thought the same thing. Just can't find much info on them.

 

[Ash]

And yet Palm Squeezers were available in the late 1800's. There's nothing new here, not really.

 

[Ron James]

I was thinking the same thing, the Palm pistol, revisited except with a more powerful round.

 

[Jaymo]

^ This.

I really wish they'd bring back the Chicago Protector Palm Pistol, and make it in .380.

 

[MedWheeler]

Suddenly the Heizer DoubleTap is "okay"...

Seriously, wow.

 

[Ron_Miami]

Looks like AOW to me.

 

[Bondhus Arms]

No it not the same company as Bondhus Tool, the hex key company

More information and videos will be coming shortly to the website sorry about the delay

 

[Havok7416]

That's a spy gadget at best. No way I'd want one in my pocket for any reason.

 

[Zaydok Allen]

Why would anyone want this. At first I thought "good for runners" but I don't think running with a gun in hand is a great idea.

Makes no sense.
