New York – Police and other law enforcement agencies have been told to be on the lookout for two new gadgets, a tiny gun that looks like a key chain trinket and easily could be smuggled onto a plane, and a plastic handcuff key that looks like a pendant.
The 2 1/2-inch-long factory-produced gun can be tossed, along with keys and cell phone, for instance, into a plastic basket before passing through an airport metal detector. The gun has not been found in New York City yet, authorities said. “It looks like it could be used as part of a key chain,” says Joe Green, spokesman for the New York office of the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.
The six-shot revolver is manufactured by a Switzerland company that bills the tiny gun as the smallest revolver and ammunition in the world, complete with 2.34-mm bullets.
The gun sells for about $5,000, but company chief executive Paul Erard has said most buyers choose the $30,000 model encrusted with gold and diamonds.
scary, this hand really looks like my booses. im going home now.
Hey don’t be sure that your wife would not use it on you. Anyway just because it is attached to a key ring doesn’t mean she can’t lose the ring and then heaven help us all.
This gun was found in Major European city’s over the last year and a half, it not that new.
Long ago, when people heard that you don’t need cannon balls to shoot people but small bullets, they laughed and said it could’nt possibly kill or seriously hurt anyone.
I want to see this thing in action before I say it’s just a plaything.
I’m looking to get the gold and diamond one for my wife – she’s forever losing her keys. I’m not worried that she’ll use it on me when she gets upset since the bullet is so small and the gun powerless.
cant be too lethal- unless you put it in a guys face. Otherwise its prob like a .22
did u use the regular version or the gold & diamonds one???
I just tried it, it’s great, I am already responding to you from heaven.
try it!
and let us know!
How deadly is it?
