One strange little pistol

[Man of the Demoneye]

I was browsing /k/ and saw this strange little thing here. Called the palm pistol it is a 9mm pistol you shoot with your thumb. It was designed that way for old people and others who have limited dexterity. Doesn't even really look like a gun, and I'm not sure how (if) you aim it, but I thought I'd pass it along.

... are they serious?

That thing is pretty much a door knob, and they want a rail on it?

you pretty much just jam it into them I guess.

A Picatinny rail for attaching
accessories such as a strike bezel, light or the LaserLyte Subcompact V2 laser sight may also be
incorporated as optional features.

Strike bezel. Sweet idea for people who like to make their point up close and personal.

I want one. Wonder if it can handle +P+ hollow point rounds...

I think I'll pass. $300 can buy me something much better.

Needs a folding stock, a scope and a bayonet.

Make damn sure that's a new Sigma. The original production model was legendary for stovepiping rounds for no damn good reason. As Admiral Ackbar said, It's a trap! Don't buy used or you'll find out the hard way why they're so cheap!

I think i saw this on gizmodo or engadget a week or so ago, it was approved as a medical device, meaning old people get them for free or something like that.

Looks too much like a plastic corkscrew

I don't think Academy buys used guns, but how would I know if it was?
