Aren't there laws preventing people from modifying firearms in the USA?

I'm sure this is illegal.

God, I hope this is illegal.

The US is a strange place... though, this is pretty worrying, being able to make a gun with a chainsaw bayonet.

this is one reason why there isnt an r18+ rating in australia is because people take something awsome from a game and try to replicate it in real life and having a high chance of failure rate which will likley result in injury or death.

there is a reason why its in a video game, its highly likley to fail in real life and dangerous.
there are others tho cant think of them jus now

Actually, I haven't taken a close look, but I believe the rifle is the type with a universal rail attachment on the handguard - so you don't have to modify the weapon itself at all; just build the chainsaw in such a way that it can make use of the attachment. It's the same thing used to mount tactical lights, etc. on SWAT weapons. I believe there's a video out there where they mount the same saw on a shotgun. Hence it's pretty clear that this guy knows what he's doing. It's not a weapon so much as it is a "nice hack" (pun not intended).

You gotta respect that level of boredom induced creativity. Disturbing, and not particularly effective, but credit where it's due.

That would make the best hunting trip ever.
How would he get close enough to kill something with the chainsaw?

Point one: Why is he a "gun nut" and not a "game nut"? He's a man with access to a rifle, a chainsaw and a copy of GOW. So why is he a "gun nut"?

Point two: Hunting- Yeah, it would be great. You shoot the animal, and rather than lugging the whole corpse back you can butcher the animal right there and then

If you actually look at this guys stuff he doesn't refer to it as a home made lancer. He calls it a chainsaw bayonet. Tis the escapist that likened it to a lancer.

I think it's safe to say that this guy is borderline insane and needs therapy. Seriously. However, it is definitely a cool gun...

The lancer isn't a rifle with a chainsaw bayonet, the two are more part of the same mechanism.

Its all fun and games until hillbilly Joe cuts off his foot. Then Gears of War gets banned.

God, why do people like this feel the need to give Jack Thompson more ammo?
