Are bayonets commonly used? Or is the risk of getting hit with the gun more than the usefulness of it. I was thinking of using pvc to make a long blade that ran the length of the bottom of my longshot, from the clip up to right under the barrel. Would it be too unsafe though?

Is the "bayonet" going to be foamed covered? If not then yes it is unsafe.
But other wise it totally depends on who you play with, some people allow and like mêlée others ban it.

Of course it would be foam covered, very much so! What I'm trying to get at is whether people like the idea of having a melee weapon attached to the gun, or not.

We implemented a melee rule last time I played.

It was ok. Not entirely the most useful thing ever, but kinda' fun.

I made a bayonet years ago for my SM5k. Never used it.

Okay, I'm going to assume you either don't use the search function, don't know how (which is deplorable since it's probably the most user-friendly search I've seen), or are lazy, or just wanted to post a redundant topic.

There was a question brought up very recently in the Homemade forum about H2H (hand "to" hand) weaponry, and a minute or two of searching brought up this topic on bayonets. The general concensus shows that most of us do not put noodles, plastic swords, or butter knives on the end of our blasters to "bayonet" someone.

But don't let that stop you from doing it if you catch your jollies to do so. You just don't want to bring it up too much on the discussion forum, is all.

Or , you can do like NerfMonkey and just make a sharp barrel on the end of your blaster...

If you can't hit them, impale them.

DON'T make a sharp barrel! For a couple of reasons
-when you angle your barrel, you lose range(I did a whole "experiment'on it
-Why would you want a sharp point? To stab someone? Seriously hurt them? Poke an eye out? Scratch or cut yourself or your house?

I just tap them with my gun, if I am low on ammo.

Sorry about that, I really didn't think to use the search on something like a bayonet.
