The present disclosure describes a foldable firearm that collapses into a folded state under spring pressure. The foldable firearm may include a foldable grip assembly. The foldable grip assembly may include a foldable pistol grip, a foldable trigger assembly, a folding bar, and a foldable hand stop. The foldable grip assembly may fold into the top shell of the foldable firearm. The foldable firearm may also include an ambidextrous charging handle assembly that may include a bottom portion, a top portion, a guide bar, and two opposing charging handles. The charging handles may be pulled to unfold the foldable firearm, and/or butterflied such that pivoting one charging handle causes the other charging handle to pivot. The first-pivoted charging handle may then be pulled rearwards to unfold the firearm. The first-pivoted charging handle may then be pulled further rearwards to rack the slide of the foldable firearm.

In accordance with disclosed embodiments, there are provided systems, methods, and apparatuses for implementing video shooting guns and personal safety management applications. An exemplary personal safety device may include, for example, a processor and a memory to execute instructions; a rechargeable battery to electrically power the personal safety device; a front facing video camera to capture video data of a scene anterior to a front face of the personal safety device; a rear facing video camera to capture video data of a scene posterior to a rear of the personal safety device; an audio capture device to capture audio data from an environment within which the personal safety device is to operate; a trigger to initiate recording of the front facing video camera, the rear facing video camera, and the audio capture device when triggered by an operator of the personal safety device; and a transceiver to transmit the recorded video data from the front and rear cameras and the captured audio data to a remote location over a network. According to another embodiment, a holster operates in conjunction with a body camera to activate audio and video capture and streaming upon removal of a firearm from the holster. Other related embodiments are disclosed.

A tool. A firearm, a blade and an ancillary device are disposed within or on the tool. The firearm comprises a barrel through which a bullet passes to exit the firearm, a firing pin moveable to a firing position by operation of a firing pin control, a firing pin lock retaining the firing pin in the firing position when in the locked position, a biasing member for applying a force to the firing pin with the firing pin restrained against the force by the locked position of the firing pin lock. A trigger releases the firing pin lock from the locked position, such that the force causes the firing pin to strike the charge proximate the bullet. The bullet then exits the barrel.

A concealable firearm is disclosed. The handle of the firearm is adjustable from a concealed position to an in-use position. When the handle is in the concealed position, the firearm has the appearance of a cell phone. This allows the firearm to be carried in the open and be easily accessible without drawing attention to the person carrying the firearm. The firearm cannot fire when in the concealed position because the trigger is not accessible.

An intrinsically safe firearm may include a handle and a frame connected by a pivot pin. One or more latches of the firearm can temporarily fix the firearm in a stowed orientation or a deployed orientation. In the deployed orientation, a magazine of the firearm can be removed from the handle; a slide of the firearm can be removed from the frame; a magazine safety allows a firing pin to strike a primer of a round in the firearm; and a trigger of the firearm is accessible to discharge the round in the firearm. In the stowed orientation, the magazine is not removable from the handle; the slide is not removable from the frame; the magazine safety prevents the firing pin from striking the primer; and the trigger of the firearm is not accessible.
