I want to make my own Nunchucks, has anyone ever done this?

You know guys reading the thread really helps!

:bang:

Making weapons? If it's safe and legal not too much of a problem, though some might wonder why you'd do it with a weapon such as the one in this thread.

Encouraging stupid and dangerous practices? Hmmm not so much.

Read the thread. You will see that the flow of the conversation rolled onto people criticising others for criticising those who did not undertake appropriate training.

The criticisms weren't necessarily about making weapons, they were about dangerous practices and why some of us speak out about them.

 

Well then first let me thank Dave for serving in the military. So Dave, thank you.

Your post on California law also makes perfect logic. She needs to know the laws of her land. I live in NE, and I was out running one day swinging my nunchucks, and got pulled over by the police. They asked what I was doing, I explained, and then they asked for a demonstration. I obliged, and they told me that they didn't want to hear of anything being destroyed or people getting hurt, and they left.

Perspective is why nunchucks are illegal in CA. They are perceived as a weapon, which they CAN be when used that way. But so can a pen right?

The politicians were not able to distinguish another option for the use of nunchucks. I also can say that when martial arts schools have competitions or demonstrations in CA, they still use nunchucks.

Maybe she is trolling this thread. No one knows for sure but her. Maybe she will be videotaped practicing with nunchucks and get put on a fail blog for doing horribly and tons of people will say she sucks and should die or whatever. I know I wasn't good with nunchucks when I first started. I bruised the insides of both my elbows for months before I finally learned not to hit them.

Anyway I keep getting distracted now with others things. Sorry for rambling and jumping all over the place. Hope it makes sense to you guys.

Peace.

 

I don't think she is trolling, she's just misguided.

 

I would imagine 7 pages of encouragement to the OP to "make weapons and go out and 'freestyle' with them" would make quite a statement to any impressionable people viewing.

So would 7 pages of people encouraging safe and legal practice.

 

How many people have died of Nuchuku related injuries? How many of those were self inflicted?

 

I am just amazed that we have managed to get to page 8 on this subject.... ROCK ON

 

Here's a thought. If you don't train with the weapon, don't bother sawing the stick up and use that. So if not doing anything will make a more useful weapon for an untrained attacker then couldn't it be argued that by encouraging the O/P we are in fact saving humanity from a crime wave of violent assault similar to Clockwork Orange? Your Honour

 

There was one a few years ago where a kid killed someone with nunchaku, but you are missing the point.

 

No, I'm not. If it's illegal, then don't do it. Fine. But don't give me that crap that a nunchuku is just as dangerous as a katana or explosive fertilizer. Not to mention if I came on here and said I wanted to build my own shotgun are you saying that's more acceptable because I can legally own a shotgun but not a pair of nunchucks?

EDIT: Sorry if that came off as harsh I am a bit under the weather.

 

How many other threads get Katana, Nunchaku and explosive fertilizer in the same post!

Awesome

 

Awesome!

 

Cyborg T-Rex would of had much more awesomeness awesome.

 

I said that? I must be dreamposting again. Damnation.

If people build shotguns and get done for it, it doesn't affect the martial arts community. Go build!

Fret not. Get well soon.

 

You're most welcome, I served along side US troops in Iraq. 10th Mountain to be specific.

 

But with his small forelimbs would he have been able to twirl nunchaku ??? (Let alone make his own).

 

No worse than this guy.

 

Dude, I told you not to post pics of me in mid-hangover! :woo::ban:

 

That's not you Steve..........











He looks too happy.
