Looks like a fast way to accrue both hearing loss and brain damage by directly vibrating the users skull. Maybe even detached retinas?

APPLY RECOIL DIRECTLY TO THE FOREHEAD!

Recoil could severely damage the neck bones, too.

All in all hilariously dumb idea.

The pickel at the top is so that when recoil pulls your helmet off, it can pierce someone standing behind you.

Perhaps we could call it… a gat 😎

Or a firehead.

Why is that dude missing a chunk in the top of his head?

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 17 points 6 months ago

He actually used this thing is my guess

You need to put the extra rounds somewhere

Here is William Osman's video on it and trying to make something similar.

Ideal for when you are right in front of a (taller) superior officer and you don’t like what he/she is saying.

This is more "America" ​​than Wal-Mart, Coca Cola and financing coups around the world

Forgotten Weapons

1510 readers
6 users here now

This is a community dedicated to discussion around historical arms, mechanically unique arms, and Ian McCollum's Forgotten Weapons content. Posts requesting an identification of a particular gun (or other arm) are welcome.

https://www.youtube.com/@ForgottenWeapons

https://www.forgottenweapons.com/

Rules:

1) Treat Others in a Civil Manner. This is not the place to deride others for their race, sexuality, or etc. Personal insults of other members are not welcome here. Neither are calls for violence.

2) No Contemporary Politics Historical politics that influenced designs or adoption of designs are excluded from this rule. Acknowledgement of existing laws to explain designs is also permissable, so long as comments aren't in made to advocate or oppose a policy. Let's not make this a place where we battle over which color ties our politicians should have, or the issues of today.

3) No Advertising This doesn't apply to posting historical advertisements.

4) Keep Post on Topic This rule will be enforced with leeway. Just keep it related to arms or Forgotten Weapons. If you feel you have something that's worth posting here that isn't about either of those (and doesn't violate other rules) feel free to reach out to a mod.

5) No NSFW Content Please refrain from posting uncensored extreme gore or sexualized content. If censored these posts may be fine.

Post Guide Lines

These are suggestions not rules.

-Provide a duration for videos. eg. [12:34]

-Provide a year to either indicate when a specific design was produced, patented, or released. If you have an older design being used in a recent conflict provide the year the picture was taken. Dates should be included to help contextualize, not necessarily give exact periods.

-Post a full URL, on mobile devices it can be hard to tell what you're clicking on if you only see "(Link)".

-Posts do not have to be just firearms. Blades, bows, etc. are also welcome.
