Disintegrator Shoots 40 Rubber Bands Per Second

Many a days I sit around the office popping people with rubber bands. You know, just like you did as a kid. Wrap the rubber band around your index finger and thumb and let it launch. Imagine launching 40 of them a second. Composed of 479 pieces, the Disintegrator shoots 40 rubber bands per second and as far as 22 feet. 24 revolving barrels hold up to 288 standard #36 sized rubber bands.

You can table mount it like a turret or shoot off the hip. As the video below shows, you really don’t want to be caught in the cross fire when this bad boy is fired. You will only get about 7 minutes of fire-power from a 5 hour charge, but I’m sure that will be more than enough time to get your point across.

I wonder what the kind people at the TSA would say if you walked into an airport with it? It only shoots rubber bands, and it’s velocity is well below the limit for a firearm.

The gun isn’t for sale, it’s a hack-together project that took over 2 months to pull off. However, the creator has the constructions details on his site
