What Is It? Game 91

Woohoo! Alas, FragKing is here! Quake III Deathmatch, anyone?

It IS a film/movie camera. Maybe to film insects?

Combination radar/speeder gun device. I think they’ve outlawed these now, but it used to be legal for Mounties to shoot you if you went a certain number of miles over the speed limit in Canada. I think.

Its a Japanese reel chalk line rifle, of course. For surveying over large distances.

its a high speed medium format camera.. ( hasselblad? )

a camera used to capture combat footage – the cameraman asked for this customization so as to not be distinguishable from other soldiers (during Vietnam, I believe) – but it seems to ma that the enemy would be much less likely to draw down on a cameraman …

a gun that shoots tranq darts?

I would like to say that it shoots ping-pong balls, but it has to be a grappling gun, surely.

industrial strength pressure washer

It appears to be a “gun camera” training device. By replacing a machine gun with this camera, you can tell whether you really had somebody “in one’s sights,” during a training exercise. Judging from the lack of sights, it replaces an unsyncronized, over-the-wing fixed gun.

Japanese WWII aerial recon camera.

It’s a bug catcher. Bugs get sucked into the clear collection chamber which detaches so your kids can view the critters. Do not use on daddy longlegs or crane flies because their legs tend to get ripped from their bodies.

its a sperm gun for cows

im correct right

It’s a t-shirt launcher, like what they use at concerts.

It is a camera gun that was used to train Japanese gunners on war planes. So as not to waste ammo.

Marshmallow gun?

It’s a Bowfishing DRAG FISH REEL . Draw, aim shoot: haul back the line with the reel. Maybe with fishy attached, if you are a good shot.

Yeah, it’s a gun camera. But Mcggyver could catch fish with it.

Do you really want to know?

Early. Colonoscopy. Device.

Check out the huge crank on the side!

OW OW OW OW OW!

T-Shirt cannon?

Meph. Too strange.

Crowd Control Beanbag firing gun!!!! also good for long range drunken bag toss!

Japanese aerial machine-gun style camera from the early 1940′s.

Riot-control beanbag launcher.

It is absolutely a Rokuoh-Sha Type 89 camera.

Swedish made penis enlarger pump

I think it’s a line gun for firing between ships to pull back a line

You know what it looks like, that weapon in the first Matrix movie. The one Cypher used to kill Dozer, and then Tank used to kill Cypher.

It’s a Barbie Defabricator. Insert Barbie into the nozzle, click, and 90 seconds later her clothes appear freshly washed and dried in the collection chamber.

The Defabricator is usually pink though. This one was owned by a perv.

the crank looks like it might transfer torque to a shaft, and the unit might be held held vertically. Some sort of core sampler w/ view compartment?

Clearly it is a plasma cannon. Perfect for killing Aliens.

It’s a coin-operated ping-pong ball gun for use at amusement parks. Put a coin in, you get a certain amount of ping pong balls, shoot them at targets. The metal bar by the stock is a mount, pulled back for this picture for some reason.

While this doesn’t give you an answer based on what I think the device was… but a remark based on what I think it should be used for:

“The best way to film people who want to be on Reality TV shows.”

Let’s start with the oldest show, Real World, and work our way up to the most obnoxious, saving them for last.

Oh, and if you can fit the cast of The Hills in there somewhere, that would be great.

It is a camera designed to train gunners in accuracy. it shoots half frames of 35 mm film and you can put a watch in the clear section to record time

looks like a bolt gun used at a slaughterhouse.

User aims at the cows head, and hits it with a bolt, knocking the cow unconscous. this way the animals throat can be split and it won’t feel any pain (except that of being hit by a heavy bolt). user reels in the bolt and waits for the next animal to come along.

i’ve never seen a slaughterhouse bolt gun, but the guy who wrote Fast Food Nation gives a good description, and that thing above is exactly what i imagined!

It’s a BFG!
