Something for next year's Christmas list ... (assuming the "safety" Nazis don't spoil the fun).

This Rubber Band Machine Gun can unleash elastic hell with its 672-round ammo capacity.

The RBGM is a KickStarter project by Alex Shpetniy, a student of art and design at the National University of Lugansk in Ukraine. The RBGM touts some impressive specs like a CNC machined wood frame, fully automatic firing, 26-foot range, and a firing rate of 14 shots per second, according to the KickStarter page.

Loading all those rubber bands can be time consuming, but Shpetniy has thought of that too. With the “special fast charging device” the reload time takes only a couple of minutes.

Shpetniy and his team plan to sell the base version for $85. With $13,300 already pledged, they’ve already blasted past their $5,000 goal. And they still have 31 days left to go.

Just think of all the kids that can't have fun with that. We could have brought it to school and only had it taken away and had it returned at the end of the day. Now the cops would probably show up and blow the terrorist away.

Love the ingenuity. As the spool winds the thread up, the thread lifts the rubber band off of the notch. Pretty neat.
