habnad Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 People with too much free time on their hands equals... (didnt think this should go into the [Official] Gears topic) The Gears of War Lancer replica is certainly cool to pose with and the Nerf version is definitely... cute. But neither packs the actual killing power of the real-life version with working chainsaw attachment.A few enterprising gun enthusiasts have gone the extra mile for their bayonets, strapping on 14 inches of chainsaw for proper eviscerating. They call it the "Firearm Mounted Anti Zombie Device" but we know it better as the standard issue Lancer from Epic Games' third-person shooter. Yes, it works, as proven by the video of the thing in pumpkin-slaying action. Here is just one of a half-dozen videos of these things laying waste to squashes and tree limbs. We'd definitely recommend not trying any of this at home, especially if you don't have the health regenerative powers or biceps the thickness of Marcus Fenix's. Kotaku Pics from AR-15.com forums More vids at above link in the forums Wow. :woot: I want one. Chainsaw isn't as powerful as I'd like it to be, but it'll still do the job on those stubborn tree limbs in the yard. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neo003 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 In the video I just lol'd after 0.6 :laugh: I just can't imagine phoenix doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konstanov Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 The guy in the second pic is U.S. Army Airborne, scary guy to have a chainsaw on the end of his gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habnad Posted December 3, 2008 Author Share Posted December 3, 2008 Heh. I can see it now: Ultimate Deer Hunting"Oh, you didn't die when I shot you, huh?..." :p -Spenser I've been to WI (Janesville)...I'm sure that would work real well for hunting up there! There's another video on YouTube where the guy is showing a close up of the saw part of the gun and the pumpkin guts on it. At around 20-24 secs, you can hear the unmistakeable sound of someone in the background cracking open a canned beverage. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madd-hatter Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I was going to say "aesthetics > performance?" but then I looked at it again and noticed it looks lame and nothing like the lancer. So... pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MasterC Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 I was going to say "aesthetics > performance?" but then I looked at it again and noticed it looks lame and nothing like the lancer.So... pointless. That's what I thought when I saw them too. If I were to slap a Lamborghini logo on my Mitsubishi, it wouldn't become a Lamborghini no matter how hard I wished. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scirwode Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Remind me to never invite them to the house for dinner, they might offer to cut the Roast Chicken and I like my kitchen table to be in one piece if you don't mind. Scirwode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacer Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Poor attempt at making a Lancer, IMO. Doesn't look enough like one to be called a "Real Gears Lancer". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael1406 Posted December 3, 2008 Share Posted December 3, 2008 Some people really have nothing to do I guess. What a waste of time. Everyone has hobbies and does things with their free time - he/they chose that. Why the negativity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gigapixels Veteran Posted December 3, 2008 Veteran Share Posted December 3, 2008 Poor attempt at making a Lancer, IMO. Doesn't look enough like one to be called a "Real Gears Lancer". Agreed. I came in here expecting a frickin' Lancer, and instead I get this poor hack job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
