23 Lethal Thingamajigs People Threw Together in their Basement
The only thing more powerful than the force of human ingenuity is a bullet from a gun. And this gallery has both!
Since caveman times, people have been cooking up contraptions to blow each other’s heads clean off. Technology may change, but the determination of a tweaker in his shed never will. Some of these homemade guns were used by their creators in war, some in prison, and some to kill the trillions of ants and spiders crawling all over their skin.
Some of these guns probably have a decent chance to shoot a bullet when you pull the trigger. But I think that chance is much lower than the chance your hand will explode. So don’t try these at home, kids.
