Foldable Glock

Thoughts? Is this real and has anyone had a chance to inspect/try?

Yeah, conceal that and take two minutes to return it to firing position while someone is shooting at you. Two things a conceal gun should be, easily concealable and two, fast draw. That frankengun is neither.

And glock already has enough stupid engineering issues, this will only add to them.

It reminds me more of a novelty item than a weapon to defend my life with when seconds count.

It is more of a smugglers use. The old design seemed better. Yes it is real. I have handled earlier versions.

Agree, there are better options depending on intent.

There is a new .22 quite similar. Cleaner looking too.

Both are really just toys for conversation pieces of collectors.

LE take note as a FYI.

That's how I viewed it.

As I was trying to figure out why a person would want to add complications to defensive shooting, all that came to mind is Why? You could just take it apart and put evert thing in separate pockets! Looks like someone who is less skilled with a hacksaw than me just hacked the lower part of the grip off and added some flimsy metal as a trigger guard and hinge. But there are people who will buy it so the guy will make money at it... Another solution to a problem that doesn't exist, like so many other firearms "upgrades". I can make lots of accessories and convince the uninformed that it solves a problem that nobody has ever actually had. Snake Oil cures every ailment that you never had to begin with...:rolleyes:
