blow your keyboard dirt away

japan keyboard brush gun

When you talk about blowing dirt off of electronics, most people think, of course, of plain ol’ canned air. And that works fine, sure, but the prank potential is fairly limited. With this gun-shaped keyboard brush, however, you can do all sorts of things, from tickling a co-worker’s nose with the dusty end of the brush to using it it…

wipeout chalk gun: like paintball, but without the paint

wipeout_chalk_gun

As much fun as a game of paintball can be, there’s nothing fun about trying to get all that paint out of your hair and off your skin. This fun shooter replaces the messy paint with chalk, making cleanup a bit easier – although god only knows what all that chalk dust will do for your lungs.

The Wipeout chalk…

get off my lawn: paintball turret

paintball turret gun

Some people go in for a regular ol’ security system, the kind with panels and codes and alarms. And you could do that, sure. Or, you could put together some real home security: a paintball turret.

It took two years to build this bad boy, and the finished product can fire up to 34 balls per second. Per second. Also? It’s…

bang bang, my zapper shot you down [wii]

nintendo wii zapper gun mod controller

Some people want games to be as sweet as sugar, with showers of fresh blossoms and lollipops instead of blood, and frolicking in place of combat. Those aren’t the people who made this custom Wii Zapper. No, these are the people who crave more realism in gaming… or at least comfortable shooting controls.

Creator THeOReos was having a lot of…

icon’s fighter jet-inspired motorcycle

The Blue Hawk’s got nothing on this one. ICON’s Warthog motorcycle is based on a US Air Force fighter jet bearing the same nickname. It has an 800-watt MTX Audio system, an 8″ LCD Screen, and a rear view camera.

What’s that Shaider? Yes. That is indeed a front-mounted minigun.

The Warthog’s profile adds, “The motor, much like the stereo,…

phone gun: deadly phone or ugly gun?

Cell Phone Gun

The Italian police have recently recovered a gun disguised as an ugly, outdated, monochrome-screened phone. That’s right: monochrome. James Bond would rather have his testicles torn off, boiled and then fed to him than be caught using this ancient tech.

The phone was seized in a raid of the Naples-based mafia group Camorra. According to BBC, the ugly outdated monochromatic…

homemade laser tag will have friends lining up to play

Let’s take a trip down memory lane… back to, oh, say, 1998. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, but regardless, we all played laser tag with gusto. Now you can play it in your very own home!

Yeah, I know, I’m excited too! Apparently if you have a good deal of time on your…

man purse deters criminals (and draws cops)

Koffski Holster Wallet

A few years back there was an alarming trend of small purse-like accessory bags (also known as “manbags” or “murses”) being carried by metrosexuals in the trendier parts of town. Regardless of how in touch I am with my masculinity, I could never bring myself to point where I would carry one. I eventually ended up with a messenger bag…

nes console stuffed into a light gun: bang!

NES in a Light Gun

Here’s another retro game console mod that’s sure to draw stares. This modder managed to cram a Nintendo NES 8-bit game system into a light gun controller.

Go figure that no actual Nintendos were harmed in the making of this system. To save on space and power consumption, modder GonzoMPM-1 used one of those cheap knock-off NOAC (Nintendo on a…

remote-controlled paintball turret is ready for action

Remote Controlled Paintball Turret

Do you hate most of your neighbors like I do? I was hoping to get my hands on that paintball-firing robot so I could deal with them, but it turned out that was a one-of-a-kind deal. So it gave me a little thrill when I realized I could surround my property with an arsenal of remote-controlled paintball turrets to keep…

web gun catches thieves just like flies

Net Gun Web Slinger

Why should cops need to zap suspects with dangerous Tazers when they could just catch fleeing criminals using a powerful Spiderman-like web-slinging device instead?

The NET-2000 Shooting Net Rod uses a charge of highly compressed air to fire a net at fleeing suspects from as far as 49 feet away.

While it doesn’t spin a web of just any old…
