Taurus®, a U.S. gun manufacturer has launched a controversial smartphone sized gun that is equipped with LEDs.

The patented Taurus Curve handgun is “print-free” and designed to be easily concealed and worn by the user on a daily basis. The double-action only, semi-auto pistol has integrated a LaserLyte® LED light/laser combination system, built within the gun frame for efficient target acquisition during most lighting scenarios. A bore axis sighting system™ is designed for instinctual point shooting at close distances. Traditional sights were removed from the design to keep the subcompact handgun design smooth and snag-free.

This curved polymer pistol has a carbon steel slide and a stainless steel barrel for increased reliability.
