Awesome Weapons

A ballpen with a butterfly knife-style case that you can twirl, flip and spin without fear of hurting yourself (or anyone else). It’ll probably get you a couple extra gropes with the TSA though.

Life-sized metal replica with a diameter of about 24″. Wield Cap’s mighty shield, hang it on your wall, or use it as to actually block stuff. Don’t expect it to return when you throw it though.

(NSFW: Language) Our favorite Russkie is back with more wanton destruction, Glock 17 in hand, with a couple of special tricks up its sleeve, including a jumbo magazine and explosive rounds.

If there’s one thing that Jörg Sprave knows how to do well, it’s making over-the-top, yet deadly weapons. His latest project definitely fits the bill – a portable guillotine to deal with the undead.

(NSFW: Language) EpicMealTime and FPSRussia get together to mix food, liquor and guns. They say “do not try this at home,” but we’re not sure if they’re talking about the gun part, or the food part.

While nailing your enemies with a couple of paintballs is annoying, there’s a more efficient way to annihilate your foes – assuming you have the Master Blaster, which fires pellets en masse.

Jörg Sprave shows off his new creations. The big star here is his strongest, most accurate and thus most lethal slingshot crossbow yet, with 22mm thick rubber tubes and an assault rifle scope.

Employees at a progressive company teach us a few humorous lessons about gun safety in this public service announcement – with a little bit of help from Freddie Wong. (Thanks Kyle!)

Presenting the latest in water gun technology. The Tornado Strike is a pump-handle blaster that fires a spinning stream up to 20 feet away. Works with Nerf’s Super Soaker water clips.

Capable of nailing your enemies from up to 85 feet away (YMMV), Xploderz toy guns fire gel pellets filled with water instead of paint. Not quite as mean as paintballs, but they still get your point across.

The guys behind this brain-twisting video describe the clip as what might happen if the time-bending game Braid were a first-person shooter. Confused? Ask the creators your questions over on Reddit.

Joerg Sprave is back with another dangerous weapon. This time, he fires a spinning sawblade from his slingshot of doom. Reminds us of the first time we got our hands on the Gravity Gun in HL2.

If the Kraken has been released and you need to TCB, try the WASP Injector weapon; it injects a freezing cold ball of compressed gas into prey at 800psi nearly instantly. Video here. (Thanks Eric!)

Behold this demo of the 40mm Machine Gun by FPSRussia, the most powerful machine gun a civilian can own: it can fire a 4 pound projectile (or a giant bullet) at 2800 feet/second. (Thanks Ben!)

WETA makes full-size dupes of the first gun Wikus fired at MNU HQ for target practice. Based on the original design by Greg Broadmore, WETA says the weapon won’t fire unless you are part prawn.

Freddie Wong’s protege Jayson Floyd pulls out the big guns and deals out the punishment to save Eliza Dushku from her captors with Freddie’s usual effect and action-packed consequences.

Al Farrow uses ammunition and firearms to make amazing religious sculptures, such as miniature churches, mosques, synagogues. Pictures taken by Meighan O’Toole; more at her Flickr page.

Like the Gatling Slingshot Crossbow, Jörg Sprave’s Avalaunche uses 20mm steel balls, but it can fire up to six of them at once. We can’t wait for the 6-shooter version of the machete slingshot.

If you picked up the Collector’s Edition of Dead Space 2, you know it came with a cheap plastic replica of the Plasma Cutter. Kipkay improved his by outfitting it with laaaa-ser beeea-ms.

From the creator of the machete slingshot comes the equally dangerous Gatling slingshot crossbow. It fires 20mm steel balls, and has a firing rate of 960 rounds per minute – faster than an M16 rifle.

Freddie Wong is back, taking on all comers thanks to a handy set of claymore mines, a bunch of the Action Factory stunt team flying through the air, and the requisite Freddie dose of After Effects.

It doesn’t explode, but the 40mm HEMI (Human Electro-Muscular Incapacitation device) will deliver a 50,000 volt-charge to whatever it sticks to. Watch the clip for a demonstration (of sorts.)

The striking Concealed Carry Tiki knife from Strider is aesthetically pleasing as well as practical; the handsome grey hue features some dynamic skull art, and a custom sheath is included.
