As usual, I want one.

How do you shoot it?
wolf • Feb 18, 2003 2:46 pm
It's an accessory, not a firearm. ;) But I still think it's cool.

It's a buckle. A big buckle. I assume you put it on a large rope and swing it for self defese. I suppose you could swing it and catch a ledge and climb walls like batman [Adam West era].

You know, I bet you could join the ends of a piece of leather with this...

or put it on your shoe to look like part of a dandy.

Ohhhh! Tales of Ribaldry! How very naughty! ;)

Place the bore of your fav<B>ou</B>rite firearm to the surface of item. Pull trigger.

Anything else I can clear up? :)

Had you asked how to fire it: Pour gas on and around said item, ignite.

In order to officially become recognized as the most ignorant individual here in The Cellar, I'm going to go ahead and ask the stupid question which is kicking around in my head right now.

What is unusual, special or otherwise desireable about this particular buckle?

I'm not a bucklophile, so I'm sure I'm overlooking something really obvious. Go ahead, take your whacks, I deserve it.

elspode, youre not the only one. i keep coming back to this thread and looking at the pic trying to figure it out.

Perhaps we're overlooking something. It's not the buckle at all that's of interest. Check out the color of that table! Amazing! I've always been a fan of off-white.

The thing in the middle looks like a gun barrel. Whoop-dee-fuckin'-doo
wolf • Feb 18, 2003 9:51 pm
I will admit ... it's a bit subtle.

No, the tongue of the buckle is NOT a gun barrel. But that is the key ...

*giggle*

(I'm only going to give it a little bit more time. If nobody has figured it out by the time I get home from work I'll let you guys off the hook ...)

I got this from a website that provides information for police departments and such. From time to time they post pictures of things to watch out for in searches. This is one of those things.

Hmm.. so it doubles as a lockpick? Or maybe you could hide a needle in the tounge?
Undertoad • Feb 18, 2003 10:51 pm
Oh, I got it! The tongue is a standard handcuffs key.
Elspode • Feb 18, 2003 10:53 pm
Clearly, I have not been arrested enough to have grasped this subtlty.

So these things are now all the rage amongst the anarchy set?
Cam • Feb 18, 2003 10:55 pm
Ahh, I thought something was odd about the tongue, wasn't exactly sure though. Interesting

We have a winnah!

Congrats, Toad. If you ever need to commit a family member of your choice, you know who to call. ;)

That would be great if they ever let me flip my belt buckle around to my backside before they cuff me. It probably wouldn't work otherwise, would it?
russotto • Feb 19, 2003 1:51 pm
That's what yoga is for, so you can become flexible enough to slip your legs back through your arms.

Better yet, learn to dislocate your thumb and get them off without a key. The next step is to have somewhere to run to...

If your buckle is smaller than your belt loops, you could just pull the entire belt around until it was behind you.
Thadius • Feb 19, 2003 2:50 pm
Another use would be to use it for removing the lids off tins of paint.
