LifeCard
One Hit Wonder or Innovative Genius?
The LifeCard is a single shot .22 LR that folds up to about the size of a stack
of credit cards. Length and width, it is exactly the same size as your Visa. It
is roughly .5 inch thick, and weighs less than 7 ounces. The company calls it “
the last gun you will ever leave behind”, and they are right.
This gun is tiny, discreet, and capable of unorthodox hiding places due to its
design.
This design took roughly seven years in development to make the LifeCard which
is a slim single-shot rimfire pistol. It consists of 27 components and it’s
discreet design allows easily to slide your pocket or a small compartment.
It works by folding out from a box shape to a gun shape. Pull one lever, the
barrel hinges away from what becomes the handle. The handle is surprisingly
comfortable, and it is basically a full-sized grip. It locks in place too, so no
chance of shooting your toes off. The trigger becomes accessible as soon as the
gun unfolds, and a simple cocking mechanism arms it. The sight is a notch cut
through the top of the gun. A small compartment in the handle is also capable of
holding four extra rounds.
