Daily Activity Assist Device?
 
Huh?????

Ok, just how can this be considered a medical device?? Medicare approved?

I'm a member of the NRA and as gun-owner friendly as most but this is ridiculous.

"For the gun to be fired, two mechanical safeties must be depressed with the fingers on either side of the barrel before the trigger, located on the top and bottom of the gun, is pressed by the thumb.
A three-digit combination lock is set opposite to the loading button to help prevent accidental discharge."

Oh yeah, THAT sounds easier to use than a derringer. :-?

At first I agreed with you but thinking about it i'll bet you can operate it more quickly than you can describe how it works and much more easily as well.

Doesn't that look a bit too much like an inhaler?

The story I linked to has been edited by MSNBC. Now it says the FDA rejected the device.
