Last time we told you about 2 animals that the military attempted to use in battle. After those projects, you might have assumed that the military scientists would have given up on strapping bombs to animals and throwing them at the enemy. Well, you’d be wrong.
Every year the military throws millions of dollars at research it develop new and more advanced weaponry. But the world of military science is not all lasers and guided missiles. Sometimes, just sometimes, the highly educated military scientists will forego the use of sophisticated weapon technology, and just strap bombs to various critters instead.
Since the dawn of war, humans have been coming up with an incredible amount of different ways to explode each other. In fact, it seems like every day the engineers at the gun factory are coming up with more powerful, more accurate guns that are forged out of the best metals and the purest lunacy.
In Canada, not everyone owns a gun. In fact, only about 20% of households have a gun in them. However, we can guarantee that 100% of households have seen guns on T.V or in the movies. If you are part of the 80% that does not own a gun, you might have some misconceptions about […]
Turkey is one of the most delicious animals, thats why people save the deliciousness of it to only one day per year – Thanksgiving. Hunting turkey isn’t easy – it takes an intense amount of resources to find and kill turkeys. Oh wait nevermind its pretty easy. Turkey’s are slow and big, which makes them […]
The Tumbleweed Tank was the brainchild of a Texas inventor, who chooses to remain anonymous. This is probably because he doesn’t want anyone to know that his only invention was a giant metal ball with guns sticking out of the side.
After becoming aware of the jet stream over the Pacific Ocean that blows toward the United States and Canada, some high-profile military scientists came up with the the brilliant idea of strapping some bombs to balloons.
The Goblin wasn’t so much a jet fighter as it was a flying roll of toilet paper. It was so pathetic and turd-shaped it could barely fly on its own, and had to be carried by a larger, more competent aircraft.
Nets have been used for hundreds if not thousands of years to capture all sorts of edible animals. Many different cultures use nets in many different ways, but it wasn’t until recently that people figured out that if you shove a net inside the barrel of a cannon, you can shoot it at other living […]
As you might have noticed from our last post, people will go to great lengths to stealthy obliterate wild animals. But for this next post, we want to introduce you to some hunting equipment that throws stealth right out the window and goes straight for unmatched explosive power. Feast your eyes on The Tyrannosaur Round.
Every hunter in the world wears camouflage when hunting their prey. In fact, all sorts of people wear camouflage even through they aren’t hunting. Camouflage is just one item in the hunter’s arsenal of hunting equipment. Hunters collect all sorts of equipment that allows them to more efficiently turn fuzzy critters into delicious food nuggets.
We have talked before about some ridiculous old-timey guns. However, we are moving on from just ridiculous guns. We want to share with you some guns that were fathomed in the throes of utter nonsense, guns that were invented for the sole purpose of being the stupidest contraption to ever launch a projectile.
If you thought that the gun katar was crazy, you’re in for a face-punching surprise.

As we have discussed in detail before, people have made bullets out of many ridiculous things. We would have guessed that no one would ever invest in making a bullet out of diamonds, but we were wrong. Chinese scientists from China (obviously), are planning on constructing a tiny diamond bullet, and firing it at 1000 […]
No, this isn’t a gun that floats in space and shoots stuff. This is a gun that rests on Earth’s surface, and uses an incredible amount of energy to blast stuff straight into space without the aid of rockets. Although no Space Gun has been successfully constructed, some attempts have come pretty close, and scientists […]
1) Scream Round This cartridge has been fitted with a whistle much like some fireworks are. The only difference being is that it travels much faster than any fireworks, and also, it is shot out of a gun. The description on the website recommends that you don’t use it as fireworks, because well, it’s a […]
The difference between a shotgun and rifle is that a rifle shoots a single bullet, whereas a shotgun discharges many small pellets that spread out. Each gun has distinct advantages, but the biggest advantage of a shotgun round is that crazy people can open the casing and jam anything they want in there. As a […]
Back in the day, gunsmiths were not overly concerned with how good-looking or sane their guns were. No, apparently their primary concern was making guns that were so ludicrously absurd that people in the future would be writing funny articles about how ridiculous they are.
Around the time when guns were first invented, people got a little creative with their gun-making. Or in other words, people went finger-kicking insane with their gun inventions. Here are 3 of the most ridiculous yet apparently usable firearms ever invented.
Do you own any guns, or are you thinking about purchasing one? One of the most important things to consider when buying a firearm is: are you willing to take care of it? Guns might seem like an easy hobby – but in reality the upkeep of guns is important and not something that you […]
