6. Aren't disguised firearms restricted as Title II AOW's?

If so, they are very tightly controlled under current Federal law (as in "10-year Federal felony for unauthorized possession&quot , and only people who could buy one would be law enforcement, military, or people who get Federal authorization to own one via the BATFE Title II process.

From a practical standpoint, an 8- shot pocket gun the size of an iPhone that is instantly shootable is a lot more effective (or in the wrong hands, more of a threat) than a 2-shot gun you have to play Transformers with in order to get it to work. But I realize that "ZOMG THE SKY IS FALLING" is Mr. Schumer's shtick, and he's been playing that same tune since he first tried to put people in cages for owning protruding rifle handgrips.
