Neoseeker : News : Guy builds Gears of War-style chainsaw bayonet

Guy builds Gears of War-style chainsaw bayonet
Kevin Spiess - Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008 | 11:53AM (PT) 0 Favourites (0)


Bzzzz bzzzzzzzz!

Some handy gun-loving American hailing from Montana took it upon himself to attach a small chainsaw on the end of a combat shotgun Armalite 15 semi-automatic 5.56 mm rifle.  He is now much more ready to effectively deal with any overwhelming alien invasion -- or shooting pumpkins and then chainsawing them in some forest someplace, like in this video:

Good thing this guy has that chainsaw -- his aim is terrible! I'm not gun-ologist but I'm sure I can hit a pumpkin with a shotgun from five feet away. If this is the best guy we can come up with, well, that's it for me -- I'm joining the aliens. Sign me up.

The improvised weapon bears a striking design similarity to Lancer gun, in that game you might have heard of, Gears of War.

    Obviously, he hasn't trained with Marcus Fenix yet. He's greener than the Carmines.

    He seemed to be having a hard time chainsawing through the pumpkins, too.

    Hey, Kev. That isn't a shotgun. That's an AR-15. It is a 5.56 rifle. Not a 12-gauge shotgun. Otherwise, he WAS moving, and that chainsaw is probably too heavy to the purpose...it probably un balances that thing so bad...

    Well Kev, if you were the one in that vid let's just say I'd be betting on the pumpkins! Speaking of which, I don't think those pumpkins will be hurting anyone anymore.

    Hey jarhead -- thanks. That's right -- I should've known that. I'm not a big gun guy but I sort of remember coming across a AR-15 rifle in a FPS that I can't think of at this moment...not to mention the AR15 does not look like a shotgun at all.

    I'm actually a pretty good shot. Though I've never fired anything more powerful than a .22. I suppose I shouldn't knock the guy much -- it's not like anyone can aim all that well firing from the hip with a rifle.

    He's also running at the same time, which might be what's throwing him off. I've never fired anything while still moving. The chainsawing looks really silly though!

    No prob, Kev. I just figured I'd set that one straight.

    Thats so cool way better than those useless replicas but that guy seems to careless with a gun. Running around with a gun that has a chainsaw for a bayonet is a bad idea. Now someone needs to make the locusts version with an sks.

    Bah. I'd stick a small chainsaw on the end of an M60 GMP. Now THAT'S fire power...

    Oh yeah Kev, you missed a spot. lol. 'I'm not gun-ologist but I'm sure I can hit a pumpkin with a shotgun from five feet away.'. :-)

    Nice a bit more functional compared to the one covered on Kotaku a while back.

    But the Kotaku one looks cooler.

    I watched a YouTube video of the Nerf Lancer, and it's hilarious. XD It's as functional as a fake chainsaw and Nerf gun get, but sure looks better than this guy's.

    He should have secured the pumpkins to something higher, instead he fumbles around with them on the ground.....
