The Weapons reddit

Weapons - any device used in order to inflict damage or harm to living beings, structures, or systems. Weapons are used to increase the efficacy and efficiency of activities such as hunting, crime, law enforcement, self-defense, and warfare. In a broader context, weapons may be construed to include anything used to gain a strategic, material or mental advantage over an adversary.

While just about any ordinary objects such as sticks, stones, cars, or pencils can be used as weapons, many are expressly designed for the purpose – ranging from simple implements such as clubs, swords and guns, and to complicated modern intercontinental ballistic missiles, biological and cyberweapons.

From Phone stylus into sharpened concealed weapon...

So i saw a friend pull out a stylus from his phone and I had the craziest scenario play out in my head.. yes im high 😂 lets go ahead and get that out of the way. lol What if you took and fabricated a stylus that was a weapon.. you could literaly take it anywhere and be confident on taking it in anywhere... How crazy is that foreal tho. No one would ever know. You could use it and then hide it to never be found if your smart. You could take it on an airliner with absolutely no problems. Im wondering if anyone out there has had the same thought as i did or am i the 1st. Maybe, probably shouldnt even post this but i need know who else thinks like that. Im not a violent person, id never do this, but i know yall be thinkn things like this too 😂

Could one theoretically make a bone sword

Let me elaborate. I know bone spearheads, arrowheads and knives exist. But what about swords? If not, are there any types of bones you could make a usable sword out of?

GSh-30-1 30mm autocannon ejection?

Hi y'all,

I was looking into Soviet/Russian/Chinese aircraft ordenance recently, specificly the GSh-30-1 autocannon, as mounted on aircraft like the MiG-29 on the left side, which makes sense since it feeds from the right (at least all pictures seem to point to this being the case) but then there are the Sukhois and their derivatives like the Chinese J-11 which also carry the GSh-30-1, but have theirs mounted on the right side, so unless it can be reconfigured to feed from the left side, where do the spent casings go? And where do they find room for the ammo belt and how do they make it feed considering how little room there is? I know I probably sound realy dumb here, I tried searching it up but couldn't find any place that would dive into such specific detail, so I'd hope someone could explain this to me in simple terms, or if you know a place where I could read on about that please post a link.

Does this exist already?

An ethnic bioweapon (or a biogenetic weapon) is a hypothetical type of bioweapon which could preferentially target people of specific ethnicities or people with specific genotypes.

Gun stores shipping to Germany

Hello,

I was planning on buying the M6 takedown from TPS arms. However I can not find it anywhere in my local stores. Do you guys know of any stores or sites that would ship to Germany?

Thanks Marc

My friends! What do you call or is there a name for a dagger or sword where the handles "T" face towards the handler?

This looks like what I'm looking for, but the top of thw T is facing down.

Switch blade

Today I was at the grocery store and a guy walked past me flashing a switch blade. Like exposing the blade. I live in Canada, is this even allowed? The concept of people carrying knives doesn’t freak me out, but flashing it around seems weird to me. Not sure what the purpose of that was in a grocery store with a bunch of people.

Buying Weapons Online

I’m interested in buying some weapons (specifically sai and bo staff), but I’m not sure which online stores sell genuine weapons and at reasonable prices. I live in Australia so I would preferably want the store to be au-based. Thank you!

(And if there is already a megathread about this stuff I would like to know about it)
