Description
Every so often a gun comes along that makes people stop and pick it up just to see how it works. The Trailblazer LifeCard is that gun. Folded shut, it measures 3.375 inches long, 2.125 inches tall, and a half inch thick, which puts it right in the neighborhood of a small stack of credit cards. It weighs around 7 ounces, so it disappears into a pocket, a pack pouch, or a small tin without printing or snagging on anything. This version is chambered in .22 Winchester Magnum, giving you a noticeable step up in punch over the original .22 LR model without adding a single ounce.
How the LifeCard .22 Mag Works
Unfold the handle and the LifeCard turns into a surprisingly usable single-shot pistol with a full-length grip. It runs a tilt-up break action with a 2.5 inch pre-hardened 4140 steel barrel, and the updated barrel latch closes on its own, so loading is quicker than you might expect from a folder. The single-action bolt is fully ambidextrous, and the whole design is built so the trigger sits captured inside the handle when folded. It cannot be cocked or fired closed, which is exactly what you want from a pistol that spends most of its life tucked away. Pop open the grip compartment and you will find storage for three extra rounds of .22 WMR, keeping a reload right where you need it.
Billet Machined, Burnt Bronze Finished
Trailblazer machines the frame and handle from solid billet aluminum, while the barrel, bolt, and trigger are 4140 steel. Nothing about it feels like a novelty once it is in your hand. The Burnt Bronze finish gives it a warm, earthy look that stands apart from the usual black, and it wears well in a pocket. Made in the USA and backed by Trailblazer's lifetime warranty, the LifeCard fills a role nothing else on the market really can: the ultra-thin, always-with-you rimfire that is as fun at the range as it is easy to carry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the Trailblazer LifeCard fire while it is folded?
No. When the LifeCard is folded shut, the trigger is captured inside the handle pocket, so the pistol cannot be cocked or fired. It has to be fully unfolded into its pistol configuration before it will operate, which is one of the smartest parts of the design for something meant to ride in a pocket.
Does the LifeCard .22 WMR hold extra ammunition?
Yes. The handle has a built-in storage compartment that holds three spare rounds of .22 WMR. Combined with the round in the chamber, that gives you four rounds on board. The tilt-up barrel makes reloading straightforward, and the current barrel latch closes on its own when you shut the action.
What is the difference between the .22 WMR LifeCard and the .22 LR version?
The .22 WMR model delivers noticeably more energy than the .22 LR version while keeping the exact same footprint and weight. The magnum version also uses a full aluminum handle, whereas the .22 LR model uses a polymer handle. If you want the most performance out of the platform, the .22 Mag is the way to go.
Does the Trailblazer LifeCard have sights?
No, this model does not come with traditional sights. It is designed as a close-range, deep-concealment pistol where a snag-free profile matters more than precision aiming. At the distances this gun is intended for, pointing it naturally with the full-size unfolded grip works well, and most owners find it plenty manageable at the range.
