I have a friend who's interested in starting a company that produces unconventional firearms for unconventional gun enthusiasts.

God bless Mossberg! Did you know the mossberg 12 gauge shotgun is the most popular shotgun used by law enforcement agencies?

Mossberg. Putting one big hole or many small ones in people for over fifty years!
Okay, why not. Didn't want to die alone anyways.

So Dadricks, Gyrojets, unusual calibers, etc.?

Or more along the lines of custom machining and specialized handloads?

Anyone ever think about how Richter inhabits the same reality as you and just scream and scream and scream, but in a good way?   :lulz:

He wants to manufacture weapons that neatly sidestep gun legislation in regard to payloads, automatics, etc.  Like a gatling gun (technically legal) that neatly mods into an electric gatling gun (completely illegal).

Technically legal is the best kind of legal.

Been playing the "Sould Calibur" I take it?

Sword laws vary greatly by state.  Massachusettes, for example, will allow carrying a sword IN PUBLIC, so long as it is visible (no hidden scabbards; Highlander coat tricks or Zatoichi cane - like), and so long as you don't draw it.  (In a bag or case, secured shut is preferreabl thou.)
Due to the danger to others (and yourself), and obviously weaponized nature of a chain sword contraption, you're less likely to be seen as carrying a martial arts or ceremonial peice, and more as a maniac. 

You could likely hang (drape?) one on the wall.  Many dubious things can be kept as "decorative", or "collector's items". 

Do you practice anything with such a weapon?

More of an academic question,WH40K fan so thoughts of building a decrative one using a petrol driven R/C car engine and a blunted chain.

Again only an idea which popped into my head as something class to do but the cost is of course prohibitive and Irish law on swords is going to be tight, Hence the "agricultural implament excuse" (But officer,What if I have to parry when that tree comes crashing down)
