honestly?
props for the attention to detail.

new ban proposals in 3...2...

 

[PaulR]

Impressive!

 

[snax]

I bet if the stock and other black parts were painted to match they wouldn't have looked twice, they could have messed with the grip a little too to change the look. It looks obviously glock. Remove finger groves/logo, add magwell extension, paint the mag release/slide stop/trigger.

This is still my favorite

I gotta say, I am impressed. That is even better than having a Hello Kitty gun.

Yeah, Bloomberg had some proposals in NYC back in the day. Leaned so hard on it that at least one contemporary resident of the Big Apple still believes it was actually the law.

Now I kind of want one of these, but I might do yellow and orange.

 

[Reptile]

I always wondered what the response would be when a police officer comes upon a person with such a gun.

It has an orange tip.

That means it's not a real gun.

If Bloomberg made a law that all toy guns must have an orange tip, that would save a lot of lives.

so who makes orange thread protectors in 1/2x28?

 

[VetteGirlMA]

Is it wrong to say I like it?? I remember seeing an AR15 build that was designed to look like a storm trooper battle rifle. It was an awesome idea.

Sounds like a DIY job.

People are painting bullets green and pink now, right.

Get some nice orange paint for the job.

It would be a like a moped, its fun but dont let your friends see you with it. However, i always liked that one and would have got one if the price was not stupid.

Painting? Hornady sells pink bullets.

Then there is Federal's Syntech line in red & blue:

The side-view of an expanded round (the one on the left on box)
looks like a bare-footed person face-down,
with their toes dangling over the end of the mattress.

Once you've seen it,
you can't unsee it.

Once painted the muzzle of a spitfire carbine orange to screw with people.

Group buy ?

Bastard!

9mm, Nerf- not much difference. I bet they drop the charges.

 

[AHM]

I showed the thread to The Bride just now;
and with the small hint that,
yes, the thing you're supposed to see
was in one of those two expanded rounds on the box,
she said, "toes?".


P. S. She also said, "Tell them: 'you should try living with him'".

I bet you could make some .460 SW Mag ammo look exactly like the Nerf darts.

 

[Picton]

I swear to God, I once had this exact same idea once.

I still think it's brilliant.

 

[gunofthrones]

Where can I buy it?

 

[chindogg]

You could gain access anywhere with this.
