This thing would be a bitch to fire, I have a .380 body guard and it's freaking hurts to shoot, it's small so all the force goes into about a inch wide space on your palm
Good luck, you got a single .22LR. Don’t fuckin’ miss lmao
EDIT: You guys can stop correcting me on the caliber. I get it. Apparently this is a different version in WMR.
Well that's why people are saying it's only useful for assassinations, you know a situation where you're shooting at an unaware target from close range and where one shot is likely all you'd ever get anyway. For that even a .22sr cartridge will absolutely get the job done.
This is only useful for pulling out of your back pocket at the range and going "look at this wacky shit I got."
There are plenty of better and cheaper options for an assassination...like a rock, or a brick, or a screwdriver.
You're fucking stupid if you think a rock that can fit in your pocket is more deadly than a .22 pistol. Also clearly assassins are all idiots, because every single one I'm aware of in the last 100 years has used a firearm and not a brick.
No one would argue a 22 can’t kill, but it’s absolutely not a self-defense caliber. I’ve seen someone kills by a pellet gun before. Doesn’t mean it’s a good weapon for self-defense.
Long rifle but this is 22wmr Winston magnum rim fire.
Edit I was correct properly it’s Winchester I guess my brain was in Winston smokes cause I’m trash haha
That could be a good thing if you have another gun though. Give the robber the gun that you have to fiddle with while you pull out the one that's ready to deploy.
Don’t underestimate 22lr it sounds and looks wimpy, but it’ll do enough to kill you. It’s not great for self defense tho especially in a single shot form factor cause unless you shoot someone in the brain a single shot won’t stop them, even if they’ll die from it eventually.
Bigger is better for defense. You want to put them on their ass INSTANTLY. 45 acp is the go to pistol cartridge for it and they make’em pretty small too.
I mean exactly! Like foreign abstract objects usually puts people into that parasympathetic “deer-in-headlights” thing… I mean Anton walked up to mfs with a literal metal canister of gas and just bopped them… and ofc it’s a film but I didn’t find it too uncanny tbh! I could totally see that happening…
It’s a gimmick. Something like a basic OG LCP is barely bigger, chambered in 380 and is 6+1 with easy mag changes. And it’s ready to shoot all the time.
I mean, the whole thing is a gimmick anyway, so I’m guessing having “magnum” in the product description helps reel in the kind of consumer who would actually buy this.
I enjoy target shooting and I used to hunt. While I’m no tactical expert and I’m not a concealed carrier, if I was to carry a firearm for protection, I wouldn’t want it to be a Rube Goldberg machine that holds a single .22 rimfire round.
Oh yeah this is a terrible defensive design. It’s a gimmick weapon for people to screw about with on the range and show off to people, not actually be a viable weapon. People here are right to think assassination since that’s pretty much the only practical application, but even there it’s blatantly obvious the design is underdeveloped.
Yeah. Even as an assassin’s tool it’s a poor choice. Unless a cns hit is scored, anyone shot with it will almost certainly live long enough to feed it to their attacker.
Yeah it’s definitely more of a novelty for someone to play with. Like those credit card shaped knives that you keep in your wallet. My dad bought me one years ago because he thought it was cool. I forgot the thing existed until I sent my wallet through security at the airport lol
If it’s well made probably not. Tip up barrel actions like this have been made for quite a long time and it’s not exactly a powerful cartridge being used
I like that you got two response that were exact opposites, because one guy was talking about actual well made, effective guns and the other was talking about this piece of shit specifically
Yes, I've shot one. On a scale of 1-10, it's flimsy as fuck. Feels like it will fall apart in your hand. Even failed to fire twice. Dented the .22 casing but wouldn't fire.
It’s called “Lifecard”. Fuck, that’s dark. It feels like American gun enthusiasts have this persistent fantasy of killing someone in self defence. At least enough to make fun little gadgets like this.
Nothing about this product makes it useful for self defense.
This is something you sneak into a venue to kill someone with, this isn't a firearm for self defense or protection.
Oh this isn't for self-defense, it's for assassinations/murders. In a situation where you're in danger, you're not going to have the time or reflexes to get this out of your pocket, unfold it, load the breach, and accurately fire. This is for people who have a target in mind, who need something concealable until the last minute, where a single shot is all that's needed to make a problem "disappear."
Glad to know if I ever need a gun in a life or death situation I can politely ask the assailant to please wait for about 30-45 seconds while I convert my credit card into a gun and load it.
Pearl clutchers of reddit: These are intended as goofy range toys, not for actual self defense or "assassinating people".
Jesus. The fact that assassination is the first thing that someone's mind goes to says a lot more about that person than it does the range toy.
The fact so many people here are seriously calling it an assassination tool just shows that they've been playing too much Hitman or watching way too many movies.
Not even the dumbest assassin is going to bother with something like this.
What are we just ignoring the measurement of 'width' to sell more clicks?
Measurements in 3 dimensions are height, length and width and this gun can not be folded to the size of a credit card.

youre shooting your own body guard?!
Good luck, you got a single .22LR. Don’t fuckin’ miss lmao EDIT: You guys can stop correcting me on the caliber. I get it. Apparently this is a different version in WMR.
.22 Magnum A .22 will absolutely kill someone.
It’s not whether or not it will kill, it’s whether or not you can confidently hit an assailant in a vital area with one single shot.
Well that's why people are saying it's only useful for assassinations, you know a situation where you're shooting at an unaware target from close range and where one shot is likely all you'd ever get anyway. For that even a .22sr cartridge will absolutely get the job done.
This is only useful for pulling out of your back pocket at the range and going "look at this wacky shit I got." There are plenty of better and cheaper options for an assassination...like a rock, or a brick, or a screwdriver.
A rock is better for an assasination than a .22 Win Mag to the brain?
You're fucking stupid if you think a rock that can fit in your pocket is more deadly than a .22 pistol. Also clearly assassins are all idiots, because every single one I'm aware of in the last 100 years has used a firearm and not a brick.
Can confirm. George W survived his shoe-based assassin unscathed.
I was on a murder trial, that guy was killed by a .22lr so yes.. a 22 will kill
No one would argue a 22 can’t kill, but it’s absolutely not a self-defense caliber. I’ve seen someone kills by a pellet gun before. Doesn’t mean it’s a good weapon for self-defense.
Hope the sights on it are good ... oh, nevermind.
What does LR stand for?
Long rifle but this is 22wmr Winston magnum rim fire. Edit I was correct properly it’s Winchester I guess my brain was in Winston smokes cause I’m trash haha
I prefer the Camel Magnums myself
That would be a solid branding name for a cigarette. Camel magnums, a caliber above the rest haha

For people who have never seen a credit card...
Yeah i was thinking this guy has some thick ass credit cards
This “credit card” gun is the size of my entire wallet.
Kind of looks like a ridge wallet
Can you imagine giving the robber your ridge wallet thinking to grab your LifeCard after then realizing you gave them the gun instead?
That could be a good thing if you have another gun though. Give the robber the gun that you have to fiddle with while you pull out the one that's ready to deploy.
Tbf their website says "stack of credit cards".
"excuse me mr robber, please wait until I unfold my single shot gun that might hurt you"
Oops it's stuck in my credit card holder, I don't know how it's clearly the exact same size.
[удалено]
It’s been a while since my dick was blown off
same. whatcha doin later?
Priceless
Is Visa ok?
Do you keep your wallet in the front of your underwear?
To be fair a .22 won’t blow the head and shaft off. Might lose a nad though.
It's a .22 mag. Definitely enough power to blow a dick off.
Don’t underestimate 22lr it sounds and looks wimpy, but it’ll do enough to kill you. It’s not great for self defense tho especially in a single shot form factor cause unless you shoot someone in the brain a single shot won’t stop them, even if they’ll die from it eventually. Bigger is better for defense. You want to put them on their ass INSTANTLY. 45 acp is the go to pistol cartridge for it and they make’em pretty small too.
Its for public assasinations, not for robery. Like how shinzo abe was killed.
Uh his assassin used a homemade shotgun, that thing was literally anything but discreet
But what about private assassinations? I’ve heard that those were pretty popular too.
Seems like it can stay loaded so deployment wouldnt take much longer than a regular gun. Better make that shot count tho.
Damb thick credit card
Better hope the other guy doesn't happen to find a rock to throw at you while you're getting that thing ready.
Idk why everyone is making this out to be such a big deal lmao. It’s not exactly a design flaw… you can discreetly do that shit easilyyyy
I guess you could confuse the shit out of a person before you shoot like Anton Chigurh.
I mean exactly! Like foreign abstract objects usually puts people into that parasympathetic “deer-in-headlights” thing… I mean Anton walked up to mfs with a literal metal canister of gas and just bopped them… and ofc it’s a film but I didn’t find it too uncanny tbh! I could totally see that happening…
Not in any self defense scenario. So this is literally just a tool of assassination.
It’s a gimmick. Something like a basic OG LCP is barely bigger, chambered in 380 and is 6+1 with easy mag changes. And it’s ready to shoot all the time.
Now make it out of wood, then I'll be impressed.
And immediately burns itself away after use, so the evidence is gone.
And it takes your fingerprints off with it! As an added bonus
i'll see your butt dial and raise you an ass murder
Why bother making it in .22 WMR? In a barrel that short there’s no ballistic advantage over .22 lr and the bullet absolutely won’t expand.
That's a good point. The gun would probably last longer with LR as well
Luckily you can choose between LR and MWR when purchasing a lifecard.
Yeah you could probably improve performance slightly by reducing the case length, since that would create more room for a longer barrel.
I mean, the whole thing is a gimmick anyway, so I’m guessing having “magnum” in the product description helps reel in the kind of consumer who would actually buy this. I enjoy target shooting and I used to hunt. While I’m no tactical expert and I’m not a concealed carrier, if I was to carry a firearm for protection, I wouldn’t want it to be a Rube Goldberg machine that holds a single .22 rimfire round.

[удалено]
Not just self defense, protection of others, property...any possible legal reason to kill someone, really.
Nothing about this product makes it useful for self defense. This is something you sneak into a venue to kill someone with, this isn't a firearm for self defense or protection.
Furthering your point, I'd imagine that it can't be fired too many times.
Like kids knocking on their door by mistake and other such patriotic duties.
That title feels very "We'll have peace if I have to kill all of you to get it."
Oh this isn't for self-defense, it's for assassinations/murders. In a situation where you're in danger, you're not going to have the time or reflexes to get this out of your pocket, unfold it, load the breach, and accurately fire. This is for people who have a target in mind, who need something concealable until the last minute, where a single shot is all that's needed to make a problem "disappear."
add to that: at very close range. Like, you'd have to be in a room with them.
> It feels like American gun enthusiasts have this persistent fantasy of killing someone. Edited for clarity.
That's my dad's shootin car, only 3 more payments and it ours.
What's the use for this kind of thing? If you need a secret gun like that wouldn't you want one that's already assembled?
Compact and basically a Derringer. Meant to be super close and even then there's not much ass behind it
If you carry around a derringer you probably don't have to take the time to unfold and load it right before you fire it though, right?
Correct. But yeah extra steps isn't ideal when you have a small window to react.
Perfect for hunting, especially if your prey is sitting in the driver’s seat of a parked sedan.
I mean, it's clever and everything, but it would require my intended victim to wait patiently while I load my credit card.
Accurate to 3 feet
I'm trying to understand why he had to shoot the windscreen...
North American Arms .22 mag is smaller and has five shots.
That's the ol shootin car, two more payments, and she's all ours
Can we stop inventing new ways to kill people?
Lets invent a way to kill the next person that invents a way to kill people.
Yes, and make it the size of half a credit card.
Debt ends up killing a bunch of people and comes in credit card size. The American way
Shooting people was invented quite some time ago
Better go talk to the military
This isn't really a new way to kill someone, more like a redesign.
For real! Alcohol and tobacco already kill enough people
TRANSFORMERS!!!!! Murder in disguise!!!!!
When you are in crippling debt from your other credit cards, you pull out this "credit card" on yourself to make the debt go away.
It's called life card but would be more effective as death card.
"yeah hey bro hol up a sec while I unfold my single-shot low-caliber gun and then shoot you."
*to the size of a deck of credit cards*
Glad to know if I ever need a gun in a life or death situation I can politely ask the assailant to please wait for about 30-45 seconds while I convert my credit card into a gun and load it.
Played with one of these at a shooting range once. Was fun for about 15 minutes before the gimmick wore off. Also way overpriced for what it is.
Hate, hate, double hate, loathe entirely
Yeah me and OP find very different things “interesting”
Pearl clutchers of reddit: These are intended as goofy range toys, not for actual self defense or "assassinating people". Jesus. The fact that assassination is the first thing that someone's mind goes to says a lot more about that person than it does the range toy.
Dude this isnt even a "fun range toy". Its an ugly, useless piece of shit. A cheap derringer would be a better option for fun or defense than this
The fact so many people here are seriously calling it an assassination tool just shows that they've been playing too much Hitman or watching way too many movies. Not even the dumbest assassin is going to bother with something like this.
thats pretty cool but how much power does that little thing really pack

Excuse me mr. robber i will take out my credit card for you
Yeah! Fuck you, car!!
For when you need to shoot someone in self-defense, once, with a 22.
That’s not the size of a credit card. Maybe the size of a ridge wallet
Shape of a credit card. I hate nonsense like this. How thick is your credit card?
The way he holds his finger in front of a loaded gun without a trigger guard \*chefs kiss\*

Got one and it’s just a novelty item only
"Oops, I missed, Mr. Robber please let me reload my single shot .22 credit card gun"
By the time you're ready to shoot...
My naa revolver is probably smaller and holds 5 shots, but that's still pretty cool.
A 1 shot .22 ...... are we going to pretend this is for self defense?
Would that make it through TSA?
What's even the point of this that's not even going to be good for protection

It’s time for a… charge back.
Is there no discharge for the cartridge? Assuming you have to remove it after each shot and reload again. Neat idea, not exactly very practical.
