"Fifty-six percent of the felons surveyed agreed that "A criminal is not going to mess around with a victim he knows is armed with a gun;" 74% agreed that "One reason burglars avoid houses when people are at home is that they fear being shot." A 57% majority agreed that "Most criminals are more worried about meeting an armed victim more worried about meeting an armed victim than they are about running into the police."

Thank you for sharing that with with me gogodogs it was a fascinating read

Thinking out loud here... I wonderif a person could make a holster that looks like a wallet that completely conceals a little Kel Tec or derringer .45 ACP?If you were to be robed youcould pull out your wallet/Gun and put one threw their eye. The bad guy wouldn't be the wiser. He would just think you were going to give him your wallet?

There are dozens of companies that make and sell pocket-holsters for firearms like the one in the picture shown earlier. They are as common as spit. Google "Pocket Holster" and you will find a million of them.

The trick is not to purchase or modify a holster in a manner that allows you to fire the gun without removing it completely from the holster.

For instance, if you took the DeSantis shown above and cut a hole for your finger to go through to allow you to pull the trigger you have just committed a felony. You don't even have to put the gun in it, just possessing it would be illegal. It doesn't even matter how well it works either, even if it means the gun would jam when you pulled the trigger and therefore fire only one time, it is still an illegal "All other weapons" (AOW) weapon.

Other than that though, they are quite popular and common. I have one myself for my Kel-tec P32.

On the topic of wallet guns, there are a couple of manufacturers that claim that the ATF classifies their holster as a modified grip and not an AOW. http://artofthehide.com/ is one of the companies. I don't think it's as safe as a Desantis Nemesis though; on top of having a crappy grip on the gun. The Nemesis looks like it'd still print like a wallet, which is the idea anyways.
