Pull the trigger once and the pistol fires a single round of 9mm. Pull the trigger again and the second round is fired.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned=\"\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/tv\/CXBInnbluc3\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\">\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The Ideal Conceal Smartphone 9mm pistol is an up-close-and-personal firearm which we found consistently accurate on targets 15 ft. and closer. Presumably 15 ft. is actually a greater distance than would exist between an attacker and a would-be victim anyway.<\/p>\n<p>One thing to note on the Ideal Conceal Smartphone 9mm is that the gun is not designed to fire +P ammo. We fired only 9mm FMJ rounds out of the pistol we tested, but <a href=\"https:\/\/doubletapammo.com\/collections\/9mm-9x19-standard-pressure\/products\/9mm-124gr-colt-defense-ammunition-a-jhp-20rds\">DOUBLETAP Ammunition\u2019s<\/a> 124 grain standard pressure 9mm JHP ammo is a solid option as well.<\/p>\n<p>The Ideal Conceal <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idealconceal.com\/product\/ic9mm-blue-line-edition-pistol\/\">Smartphone 9mm pistol<\/a>&nbsp; is American made and carries a MSRP of $724.00.<\/p>\n<p><em>AWR Hawkins is an award-winning Second Amendment columnist for Breitbart News<\/em><em>&nbsp;and the writer\/curator of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/downrange\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Down Range with AWR Hawkins<\/a>,&nbsp;<\/em><em>a weekly newsletter focused o<\/em><em>n al<\/em><em>l things Second Amendment, also for Breitbart News.
