The gun gurus at USA Today attempted to explain, for some reason, not only the features of the Ruger AR-15 used by the demented coward responsible for the Texas church massacre, but the “possible modifications” one can make to an AR as well. Including, naturally, the ever-popular chainsaw bayonet.
Wait. What? Yup. This actually happened. See USA Today’s video below, followed by a small sampling of the internet’s hilarious, meme-laden response…
To be fair, chainsaw bayonets do actually exist. I mean, they’re an $800 gag gift movie prop but, much to everyone’s surprise, somebody did really design one and does [attempt to] sell them.
Anyway, on to the memes!…
Edit to add Jeremy’s animated version:
TTAG writer Jon Wayne Taylor implements the ferocious Schnauzerschutzen PMS (possible modification system):
dangerous, dangerous stuff, that

Ok… the Adepta Sororitas want their stuff back.
Besides, everyone knows the sword version is way cooler.

Gotta love 40K and Captain Marcus.
Ban all of it. No one needs that for hunting. Sporting use only! (Holds up mini 14 with under barrel crossbow and extendable fishing pole attachment)
Oh shit,. I’m lol, the Kittyhawk, lol.—— Call me a pirate, hijacking — the Geneva convention, what’s the difference, cannon or hollow point?
The legacy media establishment has become a parody of itself. I would have said it’s beyond parody, but obviously nothing is unparodyable (that’s totally a word).
I think my favorite one is the blamethrower. It reminds me of Mystery Men.
I was thinking just yesterday how most action films involve guns, yet most actors denounce them. Samuel L. Jackson pissed me off with that,” just put the gun down” line of,,,,
Totally agree. All action movies involve lots and lots of firearms yet Hollywood somehow denounces their use. There are a lot of anti actors.
…and then played in the QT movie “Hateful Eight”.
Haven’t watched that or any other SLJ movie since his unfortunate comment.
Not to mention that Hollywood has exemptions written into California laws so they can use firearms not allowed for the general citizenry. That’s because they’re more responsible, right? Just ask Spacey, and Weinstein.
The best one is on underground tactical’s IG page.
Added 🙂
Kittyhawk
That ANTIFA/Leftist model will drive a lot of Lefty LQBQTXYZ types into some kind of recursive ABORT/RETRY sequence.
As the old saying goes – STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES! Only a liberal media outlet could come up with this BS!
Did you know that it is impossible to eat lunch while rolling around on the floor laughing? LOL I love the corgi attachment, since I love corgis… but the “blame thrower” is the winner by a mile.
All better now, finishing lunch. 🙂
I guess I’m the only one with an M1A2 Abrams tank attachment.
Personally I just about fell out of my chain when I read ‘San Antonio, Texas’ as an AR modification. XD
That’s definitely in the running for the best of the bunch.
It’s criminal how these news orgs take advantage of their oblivious and ignorant readers like this.
Snake oil media is what it is.
Any of you’s ever play the game Lollipop Chainsaw? So much fun.
A ‘meh’ game at best.
The chainsaw reminded me of Gears of War immediately.

“Fight through the pain!”
Same here. The first thing I thought of was also Gears of War. I was actually surprised that it was not more prevalent in the other parts of meme-verse that I visit.
The ANTIFA Special Edition is the hands down wiener
Now that you’ve brought up wieners, I think a Dachshund would be better than a Corgi.
Don’t you mean an incarcerated Anthony Weiner taking a nude selfie attachment?
I think the Antifa model needs a Glock accessory rail version for campus carry.
I’d be OK with a tactical nuke😆😎😜
From the same rocket surgeon at USA Today who thought orange ear plugs were rubber bullets.
I liked the Laughing Stock version.

That was outstanding.
If that’s a full-size F-16 then that is one MASSIVE AR-15.
Gotta wonder if this is viral marketing though. If so they have succeeded.
Agreed. That was my first thought. I was recently talking with a social media marketing “expert” and he mentioned that being wrong gets you more traffic and engagement. Basically, that it’s a good idea to include something in articles or YouTube videos that’s wrong, as it will cause people to comment in order to correct you, discuss it in the comments, and share it with their friends, etc. I guarantee you USA Today has had more traffic from this than they’ve seen in months. It’s almost too silly and hilarious to be genuine, but it has gone viral like you wouldn’t believe.
I think USA Today may have played a little too much Gears of War
The Blamethrower is fantastic.
I mean, it should be Feinstein, but full points anyway.
That’s not half as stupid as the quad-rail muzzle break made of aluminum… (BB&C link, Amazon doesn’t sell ’em any more.)
God the comments on the Amazon page for this were fucking EPIC.
http://www.breachbangclear.com/rampant-stupidity-or-tactical-trolling-you-decide/
They don’t sell the quad rail brake anymore because they were so bulky, so they switched to keymod. Now the mlok muzzle brake is what the cool kids get. You get lots of ports, unless you fill them with rails. Genius!
I actually included that bad boy in the last muzzle brake test: http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2016/10/jeremy-s/ar-15-muzzle-brake-shootout-3/
to be fair, the chainsaw bayonet thing falls into roughly the same category of dumb crap youtubers put on an ar to make a video that included bump fire stocks.
The Spacey Modification is especially effective against young male soldiers.
Don’t know how to post images here.
Chuck Norris mod:

I believe the Chuck Norris attachment violates the Geneva Convention. Nobody needs that much Chuck.
Perhaps the stupidest gun accessory ever; it’s going to spray infected zombie blood all over the place.
The dilly attachment on the antifa model is on the wrong end and facing the wrong way
The blame launcher is genius!
Thanks for the great laughs!
In that last meme the dog isn’t wearing eye or hearing protection! We really have to start taking safety seriously people!
Jon Wayne Taylor has the Schnauzerschutzen PMS attached backwards.
Guess I’m the only one that attached an A10 Wart Hog to the top rail and a Glock brand Glock to the underside rail. The side rails hold a coffee maker and a Minute Man 2 missile…
Nobody should be allowed to carry more than 5 chainsaw bayonettes. Please contact your city council to write a restrictive law about this.
I am disappointed that you missed the Gun Nuts.

Great post. I used to be checking continuously this blog and
I am impressed! Extremely helpful info specially the
remaining part 🙂 I care for such information a lot.
I was looking for this particular information for a very lengthy time.
Thanks and good luck.
Okay, this article made me laugh out loud! Really well done. Bravo!
I bought a nice AR15 velco patch of the AR15 chainsaw! http://stickthison.org has ’em.
