A Cellphone That Is Really A .380

[Wannabe]

That is awesome, I understand the police's concerns though. Most times if a man has a gun nobody is going to mess with him as opposed to somebody that wants to steal a phone. A phone won't scare anybody off, a gun would. I think if I was licensed to carry I'd want a gun. However I'd love to have the phone gun but only as a novelty, not as a carry piece.

Never pull a gun to scare someone off. If you feel that your life or someone else's is in danger then pull your gun and USE it to stop the threat.

I agree wit you but if I pull my gun and they start running off I'm not going to go to jail for shooting them in the back.

Correct...In my classes I taught folks that if the assailant is more than seven or so yards from you, and is not pointing a gun at you, you have time to avoid the confrontation...But if an armed assailant is advancing on you from a closer distance, feel free to shoot...And commit this phrase to memory, "Officer, I was in fear for my life, and I shot only to stop the attack"...Repeat in court if necessary......Ben

Your goal is to remove the threat. If they run they are no longer a threat.

Two rounds of 380...not much stopping power in that caliber... maybe a modified form of the Mozambique Drill. Just don't miss ....

My normal choice when carrying is a Taurus 38 model 85, in SS. It is a five shot revolver with a 2" barrel. I have no interest in killing anyone. It's enough to make someone rethink a bad decision.
