As the picture below indicates, this golf ball launcher is attached to the end of a rifle and fired. To launch a golf ball (which is lethal at high speed), just chamber a blank round, take aim, and squeeze. Bam! It’s effective up to 200 yards.
We’re not sure if this was cooked up by American soldiers in Afghanistan or Iraq, but the golf ball launcher sure puts a new spin on target practice. Customer feedback has been glowing, to put it mildly. Here’s a sample:
“Absolutely awesome. I put it on the end of my M4 and just looks awesome. This thing launches a golf ball a good 400 yds. It only drops about 5-10 feet at 200yd for me. flies like a knuckle-ball. but fun as can be.”
The launcher is compatible with M16s, M14s, AR15s, and the M4 carbine. If you want to try this on a weapon yourself, we suggest extreme caution. You wouldn’t want to kill your neighbor with a projectile like this, would you?
What are the chances of this ending up on the next Call of Duty?
Here’s the kicker: For an accessory that’s a perfect fit to several automatic weapons this goes real cheap—only $20.
