Real-life Gears 2 Lancer with real-life chainsaw bayonet to real-life murder you
9:00 PM on 12.01.2008, Jim Sterling 31 comments

     Gears of War

Gears of War 2 is an excellent game, but it is also little more than testosterone-soaked gun porn. It should come as little surprise then, that the ultimate firearm fetishists have taken to producing a real life version of Gears of War's sexiest weapon -- the Lancer.

Just in case you didn't know, the Lancer is an assault rifle with a chainsaw bayonet attached. It is at once the most awesome and most ridiculous concept on Earth, and now there is a real-life version of the bloody thing. 

The weapon's creators seem to not be taking Gears 2 as the inspiration -- instead claiming this to be a "Firearm Mounted Anti Zombie Device." The resemblance, however, is certainly uncanny and worth a look. Just take a peek at the above video to see this thing in action.

If I were a zombie, I'd certainly be sh*tting myself.

That looks like something good for any kind of apocalypse, zombie or otherwise.

"The resemblance, however, is certainly uncanny and worth a look."

Maybe cos GoW2 just grabbed a nice rifle (ar-15, I think, with quad picatinny's and a nice scope) stuck a chainsaw on it and claimed it as an original assault rifle?

That is absolutely terrifying.


(And Max Brooks would disagree with using a firearm or gas powered anything during the Apocalypse. Too much left to chance in terms of ammo, fuel, and jamming)

An AR-15 with an electric chainsaw attached to it? I'm pretty sure that I could do better...

How about someone who isn't as likely to cut off their own limbs demonstrate next time?

^ Exactly what I came to say. He stumbles back toward the camera revving the damn thing and it looks like he could lose his footing at any second. He's highly likely to saw open his gut.

I will only be impressed when its an assault rifle/chainsaw/shotgun combo. Could you imagine the amount of bitching if a developer but that into a game.

It would take about 12 hours to cut through someone with that. You'd both be standing there, looking at each other as it gradually makes its way through his collarbone, sheepishly trying to avoid eye contact. One of you might pipe up and say "well, this is awkward..."
