The chip gun

You know those chips they use to gamble? They should make a gun that fires those or even cards, would fit with the Vegas style. The casino gun maybe.

Cards ain't areodynamic for five cents and chips doesn't make much of an impact. I guess it hurts more being shot with a .32 Pistol

Check out the Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex episode Automated Capitalism - ??$. The assassin has a cybernetic arm concealing a shotgun that fires currency. It owns.

Getting hit with those things would be more annoying than deadly.

Wandering the streets of New Vegas, the poor, destitute man is unable to feed himself, and unable to pay for armaments to assist him in doing so. And while firearms are becomingly increasingly hard to find in the well scavenged ruins of new Vegas, the discarded, ill-gotten gains of a long extinct, greedy populace lay everywhere and are as significant to the current population as dirt is. Once hearing the small, circular metallic objects referred to as "Warters". The Destitute Man devised a way to accurately propel the "Warters" at high speeds by flushing the tank of a discarded and broken flamethrower, and using it to house pressurized NukaCola. Using the valve to release bursts of the highly pressurized gas created by the tasty beverage. Thus, the "Wart Launcher" was born.

Now this would be feasible IMO since chips are VERY hard to break

You need much firepower to eject a chip with deadly force, and a plastic chip would not survive such a blast.
What you would be firing is melted plastic.

As far as I know, all playing chips are made out of ceramics. I have some of those. I hit one with a 30 head-kilo sledgehammer. Didn't put a dent in it

If this sort of item were included in the game, I for one would not even consider buying the product.

With this weapon you'd be gambling with your very life!

on a more amusing note... the funniest part about this is that (assuming gambling chips are worth anything or used at all) you'd litterally be firing away a fortune just to pelt someone with an embarrassing barrage of plastic.

The actual idea of a gun that shoots chips is sorta interesting, completely fiction, but interesting.

Don't know about the US but here they do. As long as your in the casino that is. Then it's like trying to use Venezuelan money in a Chinese restaurant

embarrassing barrage of plastic.

I already had an idea like this. Called it the slotgun. I posted it before. I'll go dig it up.

Okay. Here was my idea for it. Couldn't find the quote, buy I had it written down.

The SlotGun
-When loaded, a pull lever on the right side of the weapon, and that feeds the weapon, and spins the 3 slots on the side of the weapon.
-Slot results affect critical chance.
-Three holes at the barrel, for a spread affect.
-Box magazine, loaded with chips or caps. Load it with a menu, to prevent the use of ammo you want to save.
-Slight curves like a slot machine.
-Neon lights on the stock. Or small LEDs. Lights flash more when slots match up for criticals.

That was what I had made up previously. Thoughts?

Living in the UK the concept of a "chip" gun just makes me want to put salt and vinegar in with the ammo and fire it into hungry mouths.
