Every now and then a DIY project surfaces on the Internet that's so cool we have to share it, especially those we should probably recommend you not try at home. YouTube user Larsplatoon's 1.25 kilojoule coilgun is exactly this kind of project. We're not even sure where this battery-powered projectile slinger falls with respect to your state's gun laws, but perhaps the best advice we can offer is what's plastered to the side of the coilgun's receiver: "Danger. High Voltage. Do Not Touch. Death or Serious Injury May Occur."
