Mafia Raid Uncovers Cell Phone Gun

Mafia Raid Uncovers Cell Phone Gun
If you think the mafia has just been sitting around slowly watching itself sink into irrelevance and letting the world pass it by you'd be sadly mistaken. Need proof? Just check out the Bond-esque weapon found during a Mob related raid in Naples.

A four round .22 caliber pistol was concealed within a somewhat dated looking cell phone, complete with dummy LCD screen. The keypad on the hand-set-handgun rotates out to expose the chamber and pressing buttons 5 though 8 fire. The barrel is disguised as a stubby antenna.

Even considering it's rather clunky appearance, the gun is a pretty ingenious device. It'd easily go unnoticed, unless you had a fetish for retro cell phones. [From: Daily Mail]
