Aaaha! Sorry for the bad information! It is called a volley gun!

Isn't this called a ~~deck gun~~ volley gun? They're for dealing with mutinees, the concept was that four people could die at random and nobody wanted to be that guy so they should stand down.

Oh man imagine the smell during and after that.

I'd probably go to bed because I am clearly not awake and this must be a dream.

I thought the same when I got it. I ordered it online and when it arrived I was kinda surprised.. But I've gotten through a little bit more than 3/4 of it in about a week so I guess I like it lol!

Right now I'm reading Leviathan Wakes and I cannot put it down. It's such a good book!

At work I'm listening to The Digital Plague and it's pretty darn good. Book 2 of the Avery Cates series which is in the dark, gritty cyberpunk genre with a good amount of dark humor.

Both are really good books!

My tiny flashlight will light up my whole yard and then some like it's day. I do admit that's a little bit excessive but it's great for when I hear something out there at night. I don't exactly live in the best neighborhood.. Makes clearing the property a hell of a lot easier and when that things pointed right at you, you can't see shit.

Even on the lower settings though it's far better and faster than using your phone. Also I guess it's a little bit more specific to my needs because I am a machinist, it's a lot easier for me to just pull out a flashlight than to strain my eyes trying to see something.

A tiny keychain tape measure. It's one of those things you have no idea how much you'll use until you have one on you all the time.

Looking at something online? How big exactly is it? It says 16.5" but can you picture that in your head somewhat accurately? It's just easier to pull out your tape measure and see.

I've also started carrying around a small flashlight everywhere I go. I have an Imalent LD70 Mini. It's small enough to fit in my change pocket and it'll put out a blinding ~4000 lumens on turbo (for about a minute before it gets too hot). I do admit that it's not the best flashlight ever. It has a ridiculous magnetic proprietary charger that will short on whatever if you leave it plugged in but it does what I need it to do.
