The dealer salesman I was hanging around with had one mounted, as Ian mentioned, under an M4 barrel, like a masterkey or a Plus, he had hung a can on it, making it a two tax stamp item registered both as dealer samples which the sales group paid for, no doubt.

The idea that had come from the manufacturer or perhaps him was to develop a market in Israel for troops like Sayeret Matkal and the like to hang them off of their rifles with cans to shoot dogs, lights or sentries when raiding in denied territory.

Hmm… this would looks at least… eccentric. A joke of modern technology and material which could not even be thought a century ago. However, screwing the moving parts should not be an application for the joining pieces but also doing the same for the design. Great dare for an enterpriser thinking for long range production. Besides, importance of finger protection should not be underrated.

It works best with BX-1 round magazines and has issues with using the BX round magazine, which feeds too slowly. Which suggest that time of one cycle is so small that normal magazine has problems with reliable feeding of cartridges.

Reliable feeding should be accompanied by correct linear motion, sufficient transmit of moment coming from decompessing spring, good contact of case back with breech face and etc. This should be done for the easiness of both hands using. But in a pistol with such width, there should be found many other cocking aid locations providing this requirement.

Even the late production Japanese last ditch rifles and Type 94 pistols would outperform the Zip22 in durability and effective lethality! Did I mess up? Seriously though, calling. I believe the consensus opinion is that. Also even poor rifle would made better bludgeon if need arise. The right hand is holding the grip, with the right trigger finger ready to fire the service round. The left hand is used to fire the. Madness to the next highest power of ten!

You could have lost a finger to that obscene p. There is or was a review vid on YouTube where the reviewer shot him self in the web of the hand trying to clear a jam out of one of these things. Your finger in the way of the muzzle when charging the pistol is asking for trouble. By the way: what happened with the. The video was reported by The Firearm Blog after an individual named "Doug" emailed them about the video, and the TFB post had a comment from a user named "Doug", who praised the pistol and the video.

It was believed that Douglas Donnelly enginneered the entire setup. The weapon began manufacture the same year; the weapon failed to generate any revenue for the company and was considered a failure in every regard.

Manufacture is estimated to have lasted only a year, and it is estimated only a few hundred weapons were produced before ZiPFactory lost their Federal Firearms License. The weapon's extremely small size meant that the bore axis is almost completely aligned with the shooter's hand. The gun has no distinct grip, and users must use their index and middle finger to grip the trigger and a small loop underneath the trigger, and their palm resting on the back and their thumb wrapped around the weapon.

The weapon has no slide nor any visible bolt handle. Instead, there are two charging rods, both located directly above the muzzle. Pushing it into the frame and releasing it will move the bolt back and chamber the first round.

Pushing it into the frame will, in theory, reset the striker but not open the action far enough to eject the chambered round. The two rods are reversible if the operator desires, since the only reason the restrike rod stops short of ejecting a round is that it is not physically long enough: both rods push on the same mechanism in the same way.

An inspection port on the top of the weapon allows the user to check if the weapon is cocked or not. A hex wrench is mounted on the underside of the top cover plate and is used to disassemble the weapon, along with a recess for using the entire cover plate as a wrench to unscrew the barrel.

The safety is a small button located near the trigger guard. The magazine release is a small lever located behind the magazine. The weapon is modular and allows for many customizable components from ZiPFactory to be used. It works best with BX-1 round rotary magazines and has issues with using the BX round magazine, which feeds too slowly. The extremely small and light polymer bolt cycles very quickly, which causes aftermarket magazines to fail to feed or double-feed, only exacerbated by the weapon's lack of a feed ramp.
