So I was being highly productive at work today, and reading Cracked.com's list of 7 Items You Won't Actually Believe Are Legal. Amusing list, but it got particularly funny when it got to #4, "Improvised Weaponry": one of the pictures they have is of someone's duct tape wrapped SNAP, although they don't name it as being Nerf.

I couldn't place it offhand, anyone recognize it?

"Why is it legal?"

"First of all, because a gun with an unrifled barrel is only accurate to a few inches. "

Obviously they haven't seen NH yet.

This is amusing. I just read that article about 3 hours ago and thought the exact same thing. I believe I saw the SNAP at NHQ a few months back.

I'm gonna use a SNAP to hit a button that ignites a flamethrower that sets the tannerite on fire, blowing up the car, sending a piece of shrapnel onto the firing button of a minigun which fires at the ground, setting off my homemade claymores which set fire to my thermite grenade that burns so hot its residual heat lights my Salvia blunt. :P

I can shoot a fucking pea through an "unrifled" straw at least 10 feet accurately. These people are retarded. :lol:

That's not a Nerf Homemade. Looks like it's meant to trigger a shotgun shell.

The little critters of nature, they don't know that they're ugly. That's very funny, a fly marrying a bumble bee. I told you I'd shoot, but you didn't believe me. Why didn't you believe me?

CaptainSlug's got a point. That thing doesn't even have a barrel.

So stop with all the "new Recon" crap. This thing definately isn't a Recon, I'll wager my soul. Someone can quote me on that if they'd like

Oh yes. Except with a twist: it's much more fun to watch because of this simple reason:

Shit blows up.

Yes, it is. Link. (It's NerfFreak's GNS Variant)

Although, Langley mentioned the same thing to me, that it'd be pretty trivial to make it perform true firearm functions.

Actually, I did know Minigun, Flamethrower, and Thermite... Never heard of Tannerite or Salvia, and I didn't figure too much on the homemade guns.

My friend has that book, and it kinda reminded me of Max Brooks' "Zombie Survival Guide".
