Somewhere I have an old Mad Magazine with that line in it.
There have been a lot of odd guns developed that never saw much use; from the Puckle or even earlier to today. A bra gun? Probably sounded like a good idea at the time to someone. Pointed bras were in fashion, it didn’t add much size or weight, and the heat or recoil from something like a .25 is basically nothing. So why not? The only real drawback I see is the triggering system and the idea of letting an attacker get that close. But like I said, they still sell tons of those for-shit belt-buckle .22 revolvers so ------ who am I to judge?
That’s exactly where I got it. 
In a Dick Tracy comic strip there was a gangster with an oversized denture fitted to fire bullets.
Yea, I was tired when I wrote that. It came off far more serious than I meant it to.
I was just reading, the other day, about a man who built up a fistula through his body so that there was a full, uninterrupted path from the front of his body to the back. He used it to stick swords through himself, as a stage act.
If you took the time to do something similar, going through the rib cage and pushing the organs to the side, theoretically, you could run a barrel through your chest. Probably, you would just want to do one breast though.
That scene with the “arma disparando consolador”* at the end?
But now that I think about the question, wouldn’t a bra gun be redundant? :rolleyes:
*Had to keep this post SFW. Translate it if you want, that film was weird.
Superb contribution to a superb GQ thread. Going on my cocktail-party-facts list.
I’ve seen people do that with their earlobes. From now on I wil call them fistulas.
Nobody mentions “Deadly Weapons”, a 1970’s film by Doris Wishman, the queen of sexploitation films, with Chesty Morgan and Harry Reems.

Presumably this would work only with fencing foils, not regular swords, which have flat blades. Unless this “fistula” happened to have a rudely exaggerated diameter that could accommodate a wide blade.
Probably too impractical for anyone to even bother coming up with.
The breasts do not seem capable of taking a lot of recoil, even from so so handgun rounds. The barrel would have to be very short to not look ridiculous and apparent.
So poor ballistics from an already weak round launched from an unstable mound of fatty tissue…
I think a single shot design firing a projectile that doesn’t depend on energy or much penetration would be best. Like a smallish bullet, hollowed out and filled with a fast acting poison or some such. Maybe designed with a gel recoil pad that braces against the sternum.
Or just be practical and design a decent concealment holster that rides high on the thigh/panty line, that can be easily concealed wearing a skirt/dress, etc…
That way you can actually have a somewhat effective weapon.
How about Chester Gould’s denture pistol?
I had just read about a similar murder. Story here.
Also, in the book Diamond Age there is a guy who gets a gun implanted in his forehead.
Oh crap that murder happened in a town I used to live in, about a year after I left. I guess I left just in time!
(Not shocked, that city made national headlines for its bikini baristas.)
She was totin’ a set of 44’s, an’ they were both loaded!
Perhaps it could shoot a stream of breast milk, sort of like a water gun. You could blind someone that way.
Last I heard, the female body comes with that power straight from the factory (after enabled).
Well, I do hear squirters are widely sought after.
IIRC the flashbang? Personally I don’t like the idea of asking someone to pause while I rummage around untucking my shirt and fishing around … I am more fond of a 5.11 tac shirt to be honest. Not entirely as concealed but with my Sauer 38H it works [and I can keep my droid phone on the other side. I wear it as the skin tight undershirt under a looser oversized thermal tshirt.]
I suppose you could go for a custom tac shirt with something like a Semmerling LM4 or another seriously compact weapon.
[Though for knocking around the house I prefer a left crossdraw on a belt under an oversized shirt, but YMMV]
