Magpul FMG-9 flips from flashlight to submachine gun
Just when we thought we had enough problems with cops thinking innocent MP3 players were weapons, along comes this Magpul prototype FMG-9 submachine gun. Ordinarily disguised as a flashlight, a touch of a button lets you pull a Megatron and flip out a fully-functional submachine gun. If you don't want either, the whole thing folds into a back-pocket sized brick -- but as the demo dude says, if it "gets nasty, get down to business." Video after the break.























wow...I want one
but will it blend?
that's so awesome, why in the world would people want to ban guns?
Just don't drop it, thats serious business.

"Walking the dog or take the garbage out"? "Get the mail"?? Are people that insecure?
"The ideal protection from other people who also have one!"
Depends on your neighborhood. In some areas, people are VERY strict about other dogs poopin on their lawns. What's a hick to do? Get down to business.
Also notice how he hunched over. He was probably going to shoot an angry dog about to attack his prize smell hound.
This person make a lot of sense. No-one needs a sub-machine gun for 'protection'.
"Guns don't kill people, people kill people. Guns defend people against people with smaller guns."
While i like the idea and concept of this weapon im not really looking forward to a world where we have to use it.
I was out getting the mail a few nights ago and this big-ass cougar strolled down the street.
Hell yes, I'll take two.
Does it play Doom?
No, it lets you play Doom.
But officer, that's not a gun in my pants.
;) :D
Fold up bullet proof vest? :P
that would make no sense, because when you find out you need it you would be dead, you wouldnt have time to unfold it
Yes yes... it was in vest. I mean jest.
OH...MY...GOD
I'll take 6 !
ok Goro
OH...MY...GOD
I'll take 6 !
You fail with your double-posting.
Maybe he wants 12?
He forgot to order 4 more
omg give me! oh wait, I'm not allowed to have guns anymore =D
Question. Is it an Autobot or a Decepticon?
either way, it's more than meets the eye.
Its a Decepticon for sure, Megatron's little brother actually, name is Minitron.
Decepticon...If I'm not mistaken, most all the autobots transform into vehicles, while decepticons transform into weapons and/or military things.
I'm pretty sure Soundwave did not turn into a car. He also looked surprisingly like this.
its an autobot... because its is a flashlight that fires only defensively when it transforms. Lets call Michel bay and tell him we have a new cast member. a flashlight that shoots at dogs poop... er.. i mean decepticons
This is no different than taking a Wii remote and making it look like a crossbow.
Hidden inside the hollywood shell is a "normal" automated Glock.
Yeah, really it looks like they just took a Glock 18 and put a fancy shell around it. Very cool, but not too different from that MP5K briefcase HK built a while back.
You have to admit it's at least a *little bit* different.
thats not a glock 18c, he says you can put an auto sear in it, implying that its not auto as standard, so its probably a glock 17
Where do you walk your dog and it requires a SMG Glock?
Detroit, Michigan
Miami, Florida
Washington, DC
...
Only thing you need it for in DC is to pwn overzealous condo board members and to threaten the guy at Balduccis for not cutting your smoked salmon thin enough.
Well it looks like I have a reason to buy that Glock. Me and my brother were looking , but maybe we can buy this adapter and keep it in the car, locked up of course for our road trips.
I guess its the primitive man in me that wants one. Plus playing Army of Two for 4 hours last night is not helping.
Unfortunately, even though DC is one of the few places that you would need this, you would not be allowed to have it.
@THJ - I'm thinking you haven't been to all of the neighborhoods in DC yet.
THJ - you must live in maryland
If you feel like you're going to get shot in DC, you're probably looking to get shot.
Clearly, I haven't been to (North) Miami in a bit because that is the only place I can think of that you will be shot walking your dog.
Not cool dude... Not cool.
India needs more guns.
Does it have a compass in the stock and a thing that tells time?
No, there doesn't appear to be a clock in the glock.
I think a clock in the stock of the glock would fit nicely
Ba-Dum-Dum-Chhhh...
You'll shoot your eye out.
If you put a clock in the stock of that glock you could chock it up as an innovative and useful tool.
Man one: do you have the time?
Man two: sure *pulls out gun*
not that practical but oh well :p
