This guy designed and built a simple hardware store special:
Oh, the Menards jingle haha ✨.. a classic.
Total $80 and some time for a fully functional gun is pretty cool. The 3d printed accessories are a nice touch. He has a bunch more videos on his channel of this build and his over revolver one too if you’re interested.

A Russian guy named Alexander Atamanov gave it a go, and the results are awesome:
😂 epic. Looks like he used a knockoff of the Boston Dynamics spot dog.. something called the Unitree. Seems to work really well. It’s game over once someone starts making autonomous robot dogs with guns 😫. There is already apparently semi-autonomous sentry guns (human still in the loop to do the actual firing) in South Korea along the border of North Korea.
The guy who cobbled this together has a bunch of cool stuff on his facebook page. He apparently is the founder of a Russian hoverbike / sky car type company called Hoversurf. Cool stuff.
Thoughts?

The Collector talks about his collection of Cabots:
Cabot makes some very nice looking guns. The one thing that has always bothered me about the company though is the low end stencil looking type logo, and the bad looking “dual wield” logo that they put on everything. Also, it should just say “CABOT”.. the “GUNS” is extremely redundant. Sure, it all does the job currently.. it just should look more refined for such a high price point.
The Cabot gun of the month club gets you 12 limited edition 1911s. The have pics up on the website of the 2020 and 2021 collections. Beautiful looking as expected. The subscription model is genius too. I’m actually surprised more gun manufacturers don’t do something like this. There are TONS of people out there would would pay the same amount for an insane custom Glock subscription, just for the instagram flex alone.
It’s pretty wild that Cabot only lets 25 people into the gun of the month club. The collector mentioned there are 2500 people on the waiting list 😮. That’s a lot of extra money. I’m sure some manufacturing constraints prevent them from adding that many people though. Not to mention the fact it would be a lot less exclusive if 2500 people had the guns.
I think my favorite from his collection is the ICON he shows at 6:40. Really clean looking.
They should really get their act together and buy cabot.com. Sure it’ll be up there in price (mid to high six figures), but for a company that make the money I think they’re making that’ll be a drop in the bucket for the extra clout it will give their brand. A lot of company’s make the mistake of thinking they’ll eventually get it because it will come down in price etc.. this rarely happens. What’s more than likely to happen with that domain name is that one of the other companies with lots of money who call themselves that (unsurprisingly tons do, if you Google) will realize they need it before Cabot guns does, then it’s gone forever.

Some history:
He did a really nice job of the vid. Worth watching.
While we’re on the topic of Animation, I miss Conrad the Constitution. It has been 7 long years since the last vid 😫.

Uhhhhhhhh…:
My algorithm is so cursed haha. Pakistani pranks just hit different, you know? 😂 The video really isn’t worth watching in it’s entirety, so if you skip around you’ll get the gist of it. This “pulling out a fake gun on actors” style video seems to be a “bit” for this guy.
If someone did this in a public place in the US, they would be taking their final breaths before helicopters and a SWAT team showed up.

LOL this guy is a menace:
0:53 – Ahhhhhhhgggggg the testing of which lego bricks hurt the most to stand on 😂😫
3:j35 – LOL the extendo.
He also made a NERF gun that shoots him in the face:
Cool to see kids doing engineering stuff like this for fun rather than just mindlessly scrolling the internet.
