Ok, so when are NJ FFLs going to have these in stock?

I'd rather have a DoubleTap 45.

I'd rather have a folding shotgun as you can "carry" it in NJ: http://www.popularmechanics.com/military/weapons/a17376/folding-shotgun/

Wow that's pretty cool

That is nice

Seems like more of a novelty to me.  How fast would that be to draw?  Would you have to ask the attacker to "hold" while you take a call?

Since it's made to look like a cell phone, won't this be an NFA AOW (any other weapon) requiring an ATF stamp and CLEO sign off?

The nicest folding shotgun I ever tried that is both light yet refined is the defunct Beretta 412.

They show the draw in the article.

 

It seems rather quick to me.

That's an interesting question. I think that the AOW applies if the gun doesn't have a handle but in this case the handle has to be folded down in order to shoot the gun, so I don't think AOW applies. USFA Zip 22 does not have a classic handle that sticks out from the frame and is not considered an AOW. I think this folding gun will not fall into that category.

I'd be interested in picking one of these up as a novelty piece.

Thanks NJGF, that was a very interesting read. It would be nice if there were reproductions of that.

They do come up for sale but the prices are pretty high. I found a RIA listing that had an estimated price of $6500-9500 almost two years ago but I couldn't see what it actually sold for:

That is beyond crazy, for that money you can buy the semi auto SAW.....almost 10 grand .....its not that cool

That's exactly why I want it, because it's a novelty. obviously it's not practical in NJ but it's a great conversation piece. And I don't think that $400 is too much for something as unique as this.
