Homemade Weapons

[Sunray]

"...When it came up into the court..." That cost you a pile of money for a lawyer. Despite being justified and witness statements.
Not sure I agree with not using or having homemade kit, but your experience with a stick should open some eyes.
Use anything to defend yourself and you're open for an expensive law suit.
Mind you, our OP sounds like a youngster.
Jiopopp, there are all kinds of books in your local public library.

I used to make slings when I was a teenager, very powerful weapon and can be fairly accurate if you practice enough.

Also if you have the equipment take a railroad spike cut the head off the top end, then drill a couple of holes near the end of the blunt end and make them into one long hole with some filing or cutting or both. Polish it up nice and shiny then sharpen the sharp end a bit. Not to cut though, still keep it a bit dull. Take a very strong piece of rope, maybe climbing rope, and tie it through the end with the hole. Keep it a few feet long and you have an extremely powerful projectile. This is a very dangerous weapon though, so be very careful if you play with it or practice.

some of the best weapons you can use that are always with you are your hands, elbows, and knees.

Does this count? I made it in my Basement.

Yes, send it to the original poster, it's just what he was looking for and he didn't know it

'Homemade Weapons'

I tend to agree with 'HOMECLIP'.
A few Pool/Snooker balls in a STRONG sock would put ANY jerk on the ground.I KNOW.I served time for it.(oooh aren't I 'tough'?)
For all you American Folks out there, check out the '3 Poolballs In A Sock' scene in a film called 'Scum' (1979) with Ray Winstone.
It adds to One's confidence carrying it,and doesn't 'throw the book' at you as much as carrying a blade of any sort.
Don't argue or talk, just BANG! If the temple is hit squarely, Mike Tyson isn't getting up from that.Just make sure the sock is strong! Lol! :banghead:

Before I knew better I carried a roll of silver nickels wrapped in black electrical tape. Today it would get you in big trouble back in Rural Arkansas in the early 1980's it got me out of a few jams. Knees and elbows are always with you.

Walking sticks or canes are legal on planes, trains & federal buildings and probably one of the best weapons and oldest known. Easy to learn and the level of force needed can easily be applied. Try to get fancy and you will get hanged, learn to improvise weapons are all around you.

Brazos Walking Sticks Never seen a place where they were't legal.

I always thought a wood baseball bat with spikes/long nails drilled and planted through it would be brutal! Or alternately the hardware construciton ties that have small spikes!

Here is a homemade weapon: Cast Iron Skillet. Anything can be fashioned into a weapon, if you get resourceful enough. Now if you're asking me how to make homemade explosives, I'd have to kindly tell you what little I do know, I am not sharing.

I can't even begin to touch on all the weapons you can employ in a home. The id on the toilet as a blunt object, the playstation wire as a garrote... there is no end.

Terrible Two's

The last time I checked, kids were homemade...

Ask any parent, grandparent, babysitter, ...

I assure you, a kid, especially a two year old, going through the "terrible" phase is...err...well...something to be reckoned with.

-Folks give a wide berth in stores, and in parking lots to these...these...kids.

-Criminals Do Not want any attention drawn to them, and "terrible two's definitely draw attention.

-Remember folks, distance is your friend. Ask any parent, grandparent, babysitter, etc. YOU cannot get far enough away from a kid, doing the terrible-two...err..."bit".

Can I get a co-signer on this?

*grin*

I'll give Steve an "AMEN, BROTHER!" on the above post. Somedays I would be willing to rent my Monster out, or just give her to a traveling band of Gypsies.

As far as improvised weapons go...if you can't look at an object and not figure out a way to hurt someone with it.....well quite frankly you're not trying hard enough.

Pick up a random object. Hit yourself with it. Did that hurt? Yes, then it would probably hurt someone else. No, then pick up next item.

And just to play to the OP. A hammer handle secreted up the sleeve makes an effective equalizer.
