Honestly this item will not sell very well due to the tactical problems. Just give me a Semi Auto and a Stinger Flashlight and it will do the same thing only with more bullets and the Flashlight will not even get warm lol.

unreliable at best. . . . only one shot. . . . I'd assume horrid accuracy, plus it looks like an assassin's weapon, not a weapon associated with self-defense. That's one snake I'll just leave in the bushes.

Somebody is going to shoot themselves with one of these.

I suppose the idea is that should an LEO get taken hostage (a la "The Onion Field") he'd be able to use something like this. It'd be easier to just put a Kel-tec in a sock or boot.

Gun grabbers are going to have a field day with this one.

The .25 is an under-rated round. It's good for what it is designed for, holding it tight up against someone (usually a soft target like the belly or the eyeball) and pulling the trigger.

I would bet that you need to replace at least the bulb, if not other components, every time you fire a round. Or are these one shot deals? Anyway, pretty silly. Now they won't let flashlights onto planes either.

Woo Hoo!

This is as silly as the "Cell Phone" gun.

The "pen-gun" is an adaptation of a flare gun used by downed US pilots.It was part of thier survival kit that hung by sord on thier flight vest.

I think it was more reliable as a weapon when it was still a flare gun!

I don't think that the Zip gun is a BAD idea per-se... .22 pen guns in little tubes as an inaccurate stupid and dangerous weapon...

But the flashlight/zipgun? I mean come on...

Is this a recent development? I flew a couple of months ago and didn't have a problem taking on with me. As well as...um, never mind ;)
