smallest wearable pistol in the world!

edited June 2003 in Ask the Experts
I recently purchased online a customized pair of prescription eyeglasses (found my exact correction!) fitted with dual derringer-like pistols, one on each of the temples. (Sometimes referred to as arms). Each gun is double barreled (.22 caliber) and with all four barrels loaded is still not too heavy, although I have found much comfort by wearing additional padding on the nose-bridges.

All four triggers may be deployed simultaneously by quickly and firmly squeezing the included rubber bulb. (Similar to the one attached to a blood pressure cuff), which is connected to a slim rubber tube that runs from the back of my neck down the inside of my right coat sleeve.

Can anyone reccommend a good laser sight to use with this system? The tech guys at Lasermax and M6 both hung up on me, but not before spewing expectatives so horrible that only my sense of decorum precludes their use here. Also, the recoil tends to temporarily blur my vision (not too bad, for only about 20-30 mins), so if there is an Ophthalmologist on this site....I'm all ears. Any help much appreciated.

    Laughing hysterically [:D]. Is this for real? I'm envisioning (no pun intended) this contraption and all of the safety hazards that could be associated with it...to yourself and others. Is there a safety on the squeeze bulb...hopefully you don't sit on it, or have someone bump in to you!

    If looks could Kill! [B)] The laser beam eminating from you spectacles would be a hoot to see. Would something like this be legal?

    You now know what "It's" glasses look like.......and there should be something in the way of other looks in "It's" name, also. If you look through "It's" prior posts, you'll see "Old Horsie" here has a sort of fixation on what's "different" compared to most other folks. Frankly, "It's" no surprise anymore.............Whatever "It" says/asks!!

    Hosie;
    You have got to be joking. I can only imagine having a
    pair of .22's go off sitting on the bridge of my nose. I doubt you will find a lazer sighting system for this contraption. The hazards to yourself and especially you're sight from propellent gases and lead particles seems extreme, let alone the recoil applied to you're nose.
    You're ears must also ring for days, and I wonder what effect the recoil and the muzzle blast is likely to have on the brain. There is a reason the muzzle of the gun is an arms length from the hand of the shooter. The sqeeze bulb thing I find scary, accidental discharge seems unreasonable likely. This thing seems problematic at best, Dangerous to the user and bysiders at worst.

    Kill all the lawyers and the world will be much better for it.

    All I can think of is Travis Bickle standing in a mirror going
    "you talkin To ME!"

    Horsie, when you climb up the tower please make sure you jump off before you shoot, heard it will improve your aim!! [8)]

    I for one do not belive a word of it. This is the kind of contraption that can only be dreamed up and not really employed. If you only shot one bbl or two on the same side ( say the right ) the recoil would move the glasses to the rear forcing the other side forward and to the right. Your next shot would shot across your face maybe hitting your nose or( better in this case the temple ). H H if this thing is real please post a picture. I'v worn glasses for over 40 years and know what a little movement can do to them. If you had any sence of decorum you would not post this bull.

    You'v gota kill it to grill it
