Sometimes there are gadgets that turn up that we look at and collectively and wonder WTF the designer was thinking. This is one such gadget – a golf ball launcher for your rifle. The accessory is cheap enough at about $20 and it attaches to the barrel of your M16, M4, or AR-15.
Once the device is attached, you put in a golf ball and load the magazine with blanks. The gasses from the firing of the blanks will shoot the golf ball out of the end like a cannon. Some of the users claim that the ball is good for as much as 400 yards and that you can shoot the thing about 200 yards with 5-10 feet of drop.
Golf ball sniping may be a real sport before you know it. The downside is that this thing attaches to a real weapon and fires what sound like real bullets. That means no trips to the driving range unless you want to see the inside of a jail cell.
