I'd still rather have a snubnose .38...

Neat concept though, but it just looks too bulky to be carried easily.

I agree, although sub the snub .38 for a short barrel Taurus .500 But perhpas they'll become less cumbersome in the future.

And for home, a 12 ga. pump with #4 shot still trumps all.

It says it can fit in a pocket....yeah, maybe a backpack pocket! You'd have to be wearing some serious cargo pants to fit those comfortably in a pocket. Good idea though.

Default yeah, kinda bulky

I would almost consider getting my wife one...kinda bulky though. guess it would be good for when she is in the car and safer around the kids but I doubt she would carry it on her...I will just let her stick with her .38 with the shrowded hammer and crimson trace laser for the time being....thanks for sharing though...deff something I will be keeping an eye on....maybe they could trim it down a little.

Good idea, but lots of wasted packaging there. They could probably trim it down to an easy pocket size by getting rid of most of the plastic. But the folding grip is unforgivable. In any kind of actaul self-defense situation, a panicked person is never going to get that folded out fast enough to use it. A short curved grip would be much more managable and ergonomic.
