IDEAL CONCEAL / PHONE GUN For Sale

IDEAL CONCEAL / PHONE GUN Product Description

The Ideal Conceal was a pocket pistol with a folding pistol grip. When folded and unable to fire, the pistol mimics the appearance of a smartphone. LIFECARD® .22 WMR

It was made by Ideal Conceal Inc., of Monticello, MN.  Phone Gun consisted of a derringer-style handgun containing two barrels, chambered for either .380 ACP or 9mm.

The primary color option available was black, with a plastic exterior and metalcore. Phone Guns were around the same size as a Samsung Galaxy S7 and had a handle that collapsed to give it the appearance of a mobile phone when not in use. When folded, it was locked so that it could not be fired.

The pistol grip itself acted as a safety and was held in place with a detent. To read the gun, the pistol grip must be manually swung open, at which point the firearm takes on the appearance of a conventional handgun, meeting the requirements of a pistol under the National Firearms Act.

The Ideal Conceal drew attention and criticism because of concerns over the resemblance to a smartphone and possibly legal and safety issues with law enforcement.
