Middle-Management McGuyvering: Take Care of That Pederast Hanorhan With Your Very Own Cubicle Crossbow!

I certainly don't endorse the construction of lethal weapons from common office supplies like paper clips, rubber bands, and pencils, but, as Clarence Whorley said in True Romance, "I'd rather have an improvised paper-clip crossbow and not need it than need a paper-clip crossbow and not have it."

You know what makes this rock? The laser-pointer laser-site. Because we all know, from action movies, that just putting that little red dot on someone is enough to send them diving behind the coffee cabinet.

That little red dot is more effective at saying "I must insist you stop it right now or something very bad is going to happen" than the throaty kuh-chuck of a pump-action shotgun advancing its shells into the breach.

Thanks to the Fat Kid.

Ace, here's a better link, to a site in English. Complete with instructions on how to build your own.

Hey pal, "America First."

Thank the Digital Brownshirt if you're gonna thank anyone-- he's the one who sent it to me.

Cheers,
Dave at Garfield Ridge

Dave,

Thanks, but I think the pictures pretty much tell the tale.

Bah... you can't feel the laser on you. Unless you happen to be looking almost directly at it or are in a hazy room, you won't ever see even see the laser.

Now, loading a pump action shot gun WILL get even the semi-intelligent's attention...

No biggie, just putting it out there.

Like smallpox.

I dunno, my first reaction when seeing a laser sight on me would be standing on a ledge yelling, "You want my blood? Take my blood!"

(might be slightly obscure)

Do not take the shot! I REPEAT, DO NOT TAKE THAT SHOT!

LOVE the Fletch reference! :)

Actually they are a lot easier to see than you'd think. Just ask my brother who got pelted in the wedding tackle by a paintball while shooting his laser-equiped paintball gun from the hip. Laser sights do exactly what Ace said. I was talking with the guys at Crimson Trace (who hide miniturized laser sights in the grips of your pistol!), and they were getting feedback from SWAT teams who loved their sights because they had to shoot people a lot less often. There's just something about that bright red dot in the middle of your chest that says, "Don't fucking move!"
