In honor of April Fools Day, we’ve compiled a special Social Media Reload this week that will have you both laughing and shaking your damn head. Isn’t the Internet great? Read on to see what you may have missed.
INTERNET TROLLS CLIPAZINE REVOLVER
“That’s not how it works; that’s not how any of this works.” Earlier this week, a photo of a teen with a revolver (seen above) appeared on Facebook. Notice anything wrong? Besides his obvious lack of trigger discipline, revolvers don’t take magazines, especially those that are backwards. And as if this bathroom mirror selfie wasn’t embarrassing enough, the gun community quickly went to work sharing their own hilarious imitations of the teen on social media. Even YouTuber TWANGnBANG got in on the action with his own banana clip. Which is your favorite? (via Guns.com)
CONCEALED CELL PHONE GUN
After a public incident at a restaurant in which a child saw Kirk Kjellberg’s gun, he decided that he needed a better concealed carry option. However, instead of switching to a different pistol, holster or carry method, Kjellberg founded Ideal Conceal and created a Derringer-style .380-caliber handgun that folds up to look like a smartphone. According to the product website, “smartphones are everywhere, so your new pistol will easily blend in with today’s environment.” While the cell phone gun is not yet available, Kjellberg claims he already has over 4,000 requests for the product.

Despite the hashtag #KillerDrone written on the blade of the chainsaw, no one is injured during this video from a pair of “crazy Finnish farmers” (unless you believe snow has feelings). From pistols to flame throwers, it was only a matter of time before we saw a drone equipped with a chainsaw. What could go wrong? Once in the air, the drone is used to cut the top of a tree, icicles on a roof and the heads off snowmen in impressive fashion. Considering the pressure needed to cut through dense material, though, this drone setup is more fun than functional. (via OutdoorHub)
