Pre-Rifts tech plasmagun on youtube

Unread post by J_cobbers »

So in my free time over lunch I saw this youtube video, it's a nerfgun converted to heat projectiles into plasma, kinda like Rifts, but really more an homage to Mass Effect. Still it's a neat project; not really viable as a weapon but still pretty dangerous to play with. Also these guys have a functional bat man style grappling hook launcher and winch, and other crazy fun stuff.

not actually a plasma rifle. as the builder explains, it is pneumatic dart gun firing low velocity flint tipped projectiles that give off sparks when they hit metal.

it is just designed to look a bit like a video game energy weapon.. though the end result looks more fallout than mass effect.
