diy weapons book: DIY Makeshift Weapons for Survival Ronald Williams, 2017-03-31 Rocks. Clubs. Spears. Bows and arrows. Catapults. Muskets. Pistols. Shotguns. Automatic rifles. Rocket launchers. Intercontinental missiles. Nuclear weapons. What do all of these things have in common? They are all weapons that man has created over the centuries for the simple purpose of defense (or for hunting, with some weapons). It's almost as if creating weapons has been just as big a priority for mankind as building shelter, foraging for food, or finding clean water. Of course, there's good reason why. Our natural instinct as human beings is to survive, and one of the top concerns in both our ordinary day-to-day lives and in a true life-or-death survival situation is security. Not only do we strive to protect ourselves, we will also do anything we possibly can to keep our loved ones safe and our homes and property secured as well. Today, we take modern technology largely for granted and weapons are definitely no exception. But let me ask you something: if you found yourself in a wilderness survival or in a large scale national disaster scenario without any modern weapons, what would you do? No guns. No knives. No machetes. No fancy crossbows or compound bows. Just your bare hands and the materials that are either in your home and/or that nature has provided for you. In this kind of a situation, you would have to settle for weapons that are more primitive but that are still effective at hunting game and defending yourself and your family from attacks from other people with ill intentions. If these weapons worked for our ancestors hundreds of years ago, they will continue to work for you today. A post-disaster world will be a dangerous place. Paper money may become worthless, stores and restaurants will be looted, there may be martial law by the military and law enforcement, streets will become shut down, and once ordinary people will become hungry and desperate and start raiding other people's homes for food and supplies. You cannot allow yourself or your family to become a victim in this scenario. You have to learn how to fight and to have the weapons to give you an advantage in a life-or-death situation. Hopefully you'll already have tools such as guns with you, but if you don't and need to make your own primitive weapons instead, the information in this book will undoubtedly come in handy. In this book, we are going to cover a series of different DIY weapons that you can either make in your home or in the wilderness with a detailed step-by-step process for each one. The specific weapons that we will cover include the following:* Club* Homemade Pepper Spray * Homemade Stun Gun* Long Bow* Paracord Monkey Fist* Sling Shot* Spear (Fire Hardened)* Spear (Knife)* Spear (Pronged)By the end of reading this book, you will know how to build each of these weapons and the only thing left for you to at that point will be to, well, build them!Hopefully you never find yourself in a situation where you'll have to use one of these weapons to defend yourself or your family. Nonetheless, the circumstances that would force you to do so are largely out of your control. You never know when disaster could strike and looters could come knocking on your door. This is why it's always better to be prepared, and the knowledge and ability to construct these weapons (and training yourself in the use of them) could be what saves your life and the lives of your loved ones. |
diy weapons book: Ghost Guns Mark A. Tallman, 2020-08-13 With thorough analysis and balanced reporting, Ghost Guns: Hobbyists, Hackers, and the Homemade Weapons Revolution is an essential resource for readers seeking to understand the rise of homemade firearms and future options for managing them. For more than a century, strict gun control was possible because firearms were produced in centralized industrial factories. Today, the Fourth Industrial Revolution, combining old and new technologies, threatens to upend this arrangement. An increasing number of hobbyists, makers, technology provocateurs, and sophisticated criminals are proving that you don't need a factory to make guns anymore. The security challenges of this transformation are increasingly apparent, but the technologies behind it hold tremendous potential, and while ignoring the security implications would entail risks, the costs of new policies also must be evaluated. Do-it-yourself, or DIY, weapons will bring significant ramifications for First and Second Amendment law, international and homeland security, crime control, technology, privacy, innovation, and the character of open source culture itself. How can a liberal society adjust to technologies that make it easier to produce weapons and contraband? Informative and thought-provoking, Ghost Guns: Hobbyists, Hackers, and the Homemade Weapons Revolution carefully analyzes the technical, legal, social, political, and criminological trends behind this challenging new area of illicit weapons activity. |

diy weapons book: The Gun C. J. Chivers, 2011-09-06 The author, a New York Times reporter, traces the invention and mass distribution of the AK-47 assault rifle, and its effects on war. He traces the invention of the assault rifle, following the miniaturization of rapid-fire arms from the American Civil War, through World War I and Vietnam, to present-day Afghanistan, where Kalashnikovs and their knockoffs number as many as 100 million, one for every seventy persons on earth. It is the weapon of state repression, as well as revolution, civil war, genocide, drug wars, and religious wars; and it is the arms of terrorists, guerrillas, boy soldiers, and thugs. From its inception to its use by more than fifty national armies around the world, to its role in modern-day Afghanistan, he discusses how the deadly weapon has helped alter world history. |

diy weapons book: The Morality of Weapons Research John Forge, 2019-04-10 This book addresses the morality of engaging in weapons research, a topic that has been neglected but which is extremely important. It is argued that this activity is both morally wrong and morally unjustifiable, and this implies that moral persons should not engage in it. The argument is not based on any pacifist assumptions: it is not assumed that neither individuals nor states should not defend themselves. What is wrong with weapons research is that it is the first step in the production of weapons, weapons are the means to harm, and harming without justification is always wrong. Those who study science, for instance those who are interested in the responsibilities of the scientist, are given a new perspective, while those who are practicing scientists will realize that they should not consider working to design new or improved weapons systems. This book is of interest to students and researchers working in ethics and technology, philosophy of technology, military ethics, and history of technology. |

In the first chapter, we go over the reasoning behind making the weapon, such as: Sometimes people don't think about how the law can be used against them if the intruder tries to sue them. Some weapon crafts are not ideal for those of us who have children and may think about their protection only in the aspect of being there physically, but what if the children need protection from themselves. The viability of a weapon in a specific scenario: the closet. After we make sure that your intentions on making a specific type of weapon are clear, we go over the many types of weapons there are. Pointed Weapons is the second chapter which we show you how to make a full tang blade if you want to make among other common types of blades so that you can craft them or buy them if you feel that it makes more sense. Then we go over Blunt weapons and Bracing weapons, in which blunt weapons are broken down into two types and we show you how to make a bracing weapon like Brass Knuckles without the Brass. In the remain chapters, we go over such things as: Spears Primitive Bows Arrows In which we explain to you how each one is made so that you can craft your own. The purpose of the book isn't to provide you with blueprints on how to make a single type of the weapon. It is about laying out how these weapons are commonly made so that you can make your own version as needed because survival isn't about how finely crafted a sword is. It's about how fast you can craft an immediate weapon so you can defend yourself if that sword is somewhere else in the house and all you've got is as a mop, garden shovel, and duck tape or some other combination.

diy weapons book: Use of Weapons Iain M. Banks, 2008-12-22 The man known as Cheradenine Zakalwe was one of Special Circumstances' foremost agents, changing the destiny of planets to suit the Culture through intrigue, dirty tricks and military action. The woman known as Diziet Sma had plucked him from obscurity and pushed him towards his present eminence, but despite all their dealings she did not know him as well as she thought. The drone known as Skaffen-Amtiskaw knew both of these people. It had once saved the woman's life by massacring her attackers in a particularly bloody manner. It believed the man to be a lost cause. But not even its machine could see the horrors in his past. Ferociously intelligent, both witty and horrific, Use of Weapons is a masterpiece of science fiction.
