            If Middle Earth had guns, Gandalf definitely would have carried an AK instead of a stick. Tolkein fought in WW1, it's no wonder he romanticized a time when wars were fought with swords. His war was a meat grinder over literal inches. Just waved of bullets and bombs that killed indiscriminately. So he built a world where combat was about skill and one highly trained and motivated person could beat 100 enemies face to face The people in WW1 with the highest kill counts were the ones that spent 12 hours a day loading shells into artillery miles from the fighting.

            > See that little stream — we could walk to it in two minutes. It took the British a month to walk to it — a whole empire walking very slowly, dying in front and pushing forward behind. And another empire walked very slowly backward a few inches a day, leaving the dead like a million bloody rugs. No Europeans will ever do that again in this generation.” > “Why, they’ve only just quit over in Turkey,” said Abe. “And in Morocco —” > “That’s different. This western-front business couldn’t be done again, not for a long time. The young men think they could do it but they couldn’t. They could fight the first Marne again but not this. This took religion and years of plenty and tremendous sureties and the exact relation that existed between the classes. The Russians and Italians weren’t any good on this front. You had to have a whole-souled sentimental equipment going back further than you could remember. You had to remember Christmas, and postcards of the Crown Prince and his fiancée, and little cafés in Valence and beer gardens in Unter den Linden and weddings at the mairie, and going to the Derby, and your grandfather’s whiskers.” > “General Grant invented this kind of battle at Petersburg in sixty- five.” > “No, he didn’t — he just invented mass butchery. This kind of battle was invented by Lewis Carroll and Jules Verne and whoever wrote Undine, and country deacons bowling and marraines in Marseilles and girls seduced in the back lanes of Wurtemburg and Westphalia. Why, this was a love battle — there was a century of middle-class love spent here. This was the last love battle. --F. Scott Fitzgerald, Tender is the Night

              Wait untill you see my America enchanted gauntlet. ![](https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/1f9d2e8a-a1d6-4c25-b1a9-28fb5d4fdaa1.webp) Yeah this was an actual real thing developed by the OSS during WW2, primarily for assasinations, the Sedgley Glove Gun. One side is a plunger trigger, the other side is a one shot .38 cal gun. ... It pretty much just is a glove with a gun duct taped to it, it was used in Inglorious Basterds, and also real life, it literally is just punch someone in the head and also shoot them in the head at the same time.

              Oh good. I thought the plunger was on the finger side. I was thinking I would blow my own ring finger off with this thing.

                  i love how the battle scenes in the books are really short compared to the scenes where the hobbits are smoking, eating and enjoying life. i think tolkien romanticized more the simple life, peace and quiet and good tilled earth.

                    iirc, pistols are pretty resistant to firing when they are dropped/receive a shock of some sort. So if slamming the staff to the ground, it might not go off. You'd rather strap a shotgun to it

                      The plunger is closest to the viewer of the image, the gun barrel is further away. So, you make a fist, and the plunger extends out from uh, on top of the ridge between your pointer and index finger's first knuckles, the gun barrel is over to the right. Should be fine if you keep your hand as a fist. I guess you could blow your finger off if you are wearing this, and then splay your fingers out against a wall, but with your hand straight to your your, all your fingers bent backward. ![](https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/4a4aa026-55d3-4256-9cef-d74d26772c31.webp) Like this. That would uh, not be the recommened operation of the Glove Gun.

                          This reminds me: I need to eat 4lbs of bacon, sexually assault a family member, vote against my own interests, and then get some duct tape.

                                There was a video game that did this. A silly multiplayer focused wizard game. Net code entirely unplayably broken on modern operating systems. One of the big warfucker franchises released a 'Vietnam' dlc in incredibly poor taste, so they did too. Spells like 'call airstrike' and a staff thats just a machine gun.
