A Nail Gun for the Survivalist in Each of Us

Nail GunHere’s the situation. You’re holed up in an old farm house surrounded by zombies. You need to board up the house, but there are too many zombies that need killing. In such a circumstance, you’d have to exterminate the zombies first, then board up the house second. Imagine doing them both at the same time? Introducing a real nail gun that is not messing around.

Here’s an excerpt from slippery brick which covered the story sometime back:

This thing has blood and carnage written all over it. It’s ideal for fixing up the house if you don’t mind everyone inside ending up dead as a doornail. It can send a 6-D nail through a 2 x 4 at 200 yards, and as it’s creator David Wiggins points out, you could literally sit in your lawn chair while building a fence.

So as you can see, this would be a true multitasking zombie killing weapon. I’m guessing you’d be actually nailing the zombies to your wall, making a nice barricade of animated flesh. In any case, this is a custom made gun so you can’t buy it in stores (thank god) otherwise constructing a simple house addition would be like visiting Omaha beach on D-Day.
