Folding Glock?

[IronMonster]

Just stumbled across this. I think its super cool in that the mechanics are neat and I like weird firearms. The advantage of course is the 22 rds in a package smaller than a standard handgun. The disadvantage is the complicated nature and increased manipulation required to deploy.

In any case, its fun to watch

I want one!

 

[nextgenar]

They are available at budsgunshop.com but the $1200 price tag was just a little out of my price range.

$1,200 is a lot of money, but if you add an extended mag you have a unique walking stick that's an excellent conversation starter!

 

[Heyjoe]

Cool!
First glock I ever lusted after....
Must be the exposed metal

Bigger footprint than a standard G-19.
How dose it function when it's reconfigured to be a gun?

sadly due to a childhood illness I am nonglock.

But to make a comment on the guys video. He never should have shown his draw as that points out the huge disadvantage of this silly thing. NO ROUND IN THE CHAMBER. So his draw is completely wrong he forgot to cycle a round into the chamber prior to pointing it at the target/threat. GOOD WAY TO END UP DEAD.

Why ? seem's gimmickish
more stuff to go wrong or break.........

Actually, he has a round in the chamber. He states that in the video.

You are looking at it as a tool, I see it as a toy. I think its neat because its gimmicky, that's why I would want one. I would never carry it, I would play with it though.

As a pistol: no

As a neat novelty: sure, why not. That would be a neat thing to own.

Interesting concept. I would have to see it on the market for a while with plenty of actual use before I could ever consider plunking money down on the thing. As it stands, the price tag is awfully high for what it is, and honestly, I don't know that you gain all that much with it.

 

[Wombat of Doom]

If it had a switchblade like mechanism where it deployed on a button push, yes. For $1200 it better be a switchblade folding glock.

 

[IronMonster]

You guys are all so practical and boring....

 

[Medic!]

That not true!

I got stupit chit!
And I enjoy it.

 

[bivy53]

Bravo to the innovation!

"Yes, it's a brick.".

It would be cheaper to just carry a slide, 80% lower, and a Dremel around in your pocket.

I'd rather carry a hopped up Roman candle in my pocket than that thing. o wait, I do
