They’re sold as dart guns from China on Alibaba. I’d bet a million of those little guys are on the streets.

They may or may not explode in your hand disfiguring you horribly.

Yes their is real life card pistols. This looks like a knockoff, the cartridge even appears to have a plastic "bullet" in it.

Yep this is a toy I have a fidget one that looks like a zippo, and shoots little darts inside brass cases that contain a spring. Red tip darts, you can even see the little release plunger on the end of the shell.

Holy smokes, so they confiscated a toy. Although, they will no doubt call it a replica, which is technically correct, but I can't see how anybody other than a gun nut would perceive that to be a firearm.

Guy on the ebike must have been a special kind of idiot to manage to get himself searched in a traffic stop. I bet he told the cop that the thing was a gun, otherwise most cops wouldn't have had a clue what that thing was.

There are lots of places you can stick a 22wmr, (giggidy) that doesn't make those places a gun. This thing comes with toy plastic bullets. If a 22wmr fits, and it can set it off, you'll be lucky to still have all your fingers.

But does the firing pin actually work for that 22 wmr? I’m pretty sure that the “pin” strikes the centre of the toy spring loaded cartridge to activate it and 22 WMR is rim fire….

If it could set it off, I’m really doubting it could do so reliably.
