Behold: Cutlery pistols
As for game weapons, one that always struck me as pointless was the EMP gun in the Jedi Knight games. There's only two enemies in the single player that are hurt at all and in multiplayer it's just a slower, clumsier version of the standard blaster pistol that eats disruptor rifle and bowcaster ammo.
well lets compare with SA80:
-weight: cutlery wins
-conceal-ability: Cutlery wins
-reliability: well, a musket is more reliable between each reload, Cutlery wins
-capacity: knife "infinite hits" no reload. Cutlery wins
-price: I have never seen cutlery that costs more than $17'000 a piece, SA80 loses, while Cutlery increases in value SA80 is so crap NO ONE will buy it (no overseas sales).
-intimidation factor: "guns for show, knives for pro"
-utility: you can use cutlery as a multi-purpose cutting/eating tool... SA80's secondary function after being an oversized paperweight is it occasionally may fire bullets
-range: OK, 50% of the time SA80 has advantage here, but the time it takes to clear a jam you can run over and shank them.
-running costs: ammo ain't cheap
You know there is a reason the British army STILL practice the bayonet charge and use it effectively was well. Because quite literally cutlery stuck on the end of their rifle makes it more effective that using the rifle itself!

Wow... i take back what i said about the Klobb's... SA-80's the winner of the worst weapon. I was actually looking up what some Paratroopers thought of the gun series: One of them likened it to a 'civil servant = It never works and can't be fired'. It's unreal that such a money grabbing scheme was orchestrated for something so vital.
I have a lot of respect for the Klobb/Skorpion when you consider what it is: a machine pistol firing a very weak round.
Skorpion is the size and weight of a pistol, it is SO ACCURATE even under full auto which is extraordinary for such a compact weapon, I love it in Black ops for how I am able to be a machien gun sniper.
Dual wield it is a beast, with a long 40hp damage range, huge combined rate of fire and loads of ammo.
But in MGS3 it was my weapon on choice for it's literally laser accuracy, it was the only weapon with a laser sight and had no recoil it was an auto-sniper.
But this is the gun IRL, notice the almost non existent recoil. In fact the top comments are all alleging that he is firing low-recoil blanks (actually impossible with this weapon, it needs an obvious blank-firing adapter)
