Your very own home made G36 coilgun rifle

July 14, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

This G36 is a fully functional coilgun that uses electricity to fire metal bolts. It feels very much like a weapon from the future. The three lasers making aiming straight forward and the view finder is impressive. The power? It’s not bad and you can imagine how it could be ramped even higher.

How to make your own NERF Vulcan sentry cannon

July 12, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Fancy making your own version of this gun? The instructions are here. This video was introduced to me as “Look what this geek girl has built!” This person, who shall remain nameless, was partly impressed with the build and partly surprised that a woman had made it. Why? What’s so surprising about that? You should […]

Bullets precisely split in half

June 22, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

When Necromancers duel: bone pistol set

January 13, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This bone pistol duelling set and the guns below are the creation of Bruce Mahalski. His work has been included in exhibitions since 1997 and, safe to say, has its own look. On his bio Mahalski notes that he started collecting shells, fossils and bones at a very young age, copying his scientist parents who […]

Bullet chart: exit and entry holes

January 5, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s sometimes remarked that roleplayers know far more about guns and weapons than the general public. Certainly, here in the UK if you found youself eavesdropping on a conversation about which type of gun to use… the chances are quite high you’re listening to gamers talking about a campaign.

Colt .45 Cufflinks

July 13, 2011 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s a reason I keep my eyes on the virtual shop shelves of the geeks over at Vat19. They come up with pretty exciting things to sell. For example, imagine cufflinks made from spent Colt .45 rounds. You don’t need to imagine because Vat19 sells them, and I can show you what they look like. […]
