Re: Cell phone gun
Not exactly. To draw it you would have to manipulate it into the firing configuration (the reason it isn't an AOW). So they are asking you to give it to them, and if they see you deploying it they will know it's not a cell phone. This assumes that they actually ask for. If using it on a belt holder, they may not ask and simply take it. Even if it's in your pocket there is the risk of pick-pockets - it's print looks like a valuable smart phone and makes it a target.
Once somebody has the drop on you, successfully deploying a firearm is unlikely. They're too close if they are asking for your stuff and too many steps ahead of you in the process if they have a gun or knife on you. There may be some exceptions to this such as shooting a revolver through your jacket pocket, but really the answer is improving situational instead of relying on impractical tacticool inventions.
This is just my opinion and train of thought. Could there be unique scenarios where this product is useful? Maybe, but I can't think of one in which another product wouldn't be more practical.Last edited by giant_g2; March 10th, 2019 at 12:29 PM.

Re: Cell phone gun
To make such a big deal about how comfortable it is to shoot is just wrong. It's not meant to be a target shooter, it's meant to be basically a weapon of last resort. Something that you would use when you absolutely need it, and when you're in such a situation you'll never even notice how much it stings to shoot because you'll be so hopped up on adrenaline. I would think these guys reviewing it would understand that.

Re: Cell phone gun
$800 for a novelty gun is just crazy. The thought of OC'ing with their cell phone holster is intriguing, though. Who would notice?
Looks like they're printing the holster. Such low volume that it's not worth building an injection mold.
"Is your holster printing?" LOL

Re: Cell phone gun
What's a cut on your finger vs defending yourself? I can see a use for this, as there are times you may not be able to carry a normal firearm. It certainly isn't meant to be something for a sustained gun fight while defending the Nakatomi Towers. But it would be useful in some cases.
