Compact, reliable options for everyday personal protection are rare; the best designs blend controllability, safety, and pocketability without sacrificing firepower. For users who prioritize concealment and immediate readiness in a lightweight package, a carefully engineered folding revolver can fill that role effectively.

Design and construction

The SWITCH GUN is a single-action folding revolver machined from stainless steel. Its CNC machined frame and barrel deliver robust tolerances and corrosion resistance in a package that folds into a compact form factor (2.125 x 3.75 x .75 inches folded). When folded, the polymer grip encapsulates the trigger, creating an effective mechanical safety against accidental discharge — an important feature for pocket carry.

Materials and ergonomics

Despite a mere 9 ounces loaded, the SWITCH GUN uses a large polymer handle that simulates the feel of a full-sized revolver. That larger grip surface provides purchase and leverage, improving control and follow-up shot placement compared with other micro-revolvers.

Performance and handling

This folding revolver chambers five .22 Magnum cartridges. The .22 Magnum (also known as .22 WMR) offers higher velocity than standard .22 LR, producing better terminal performance in short barrels while keeping recoil low — an advantage for shooters who need to manage quick, accurate engagements from close quarters.

Action and sights

The single-action mechanism requires cocking the hammer for each shot, which simplifies the firing cycle and enhances reliability under stress. The short .88″ barrel limits ballistic performance compared to full-length barrels, but the combination of a heavier projectile in .22 Magnum and the secure grip helps maintain useful point-of-aim control at close defensive distances.

Practical carry and training

The SWITCH GUN’s pocket-sized folded dimensions make it comparable to a cell phone in footprint, ideal for deep concealment. Users should prioritize retention, consistent draw practice, and using quality .22 Magnum defensive loads suited to short-barrel platforms. Given its single-action design, dry-fire and live-fire practice to build muscle memory are essential for reliable operation under pressure.
