Precision Syndicate, LLC, a gun manufacturer from Texas, has created a gun called the “Nintendo Glock”.
The pistol bears a striking resemblance to the Super Scope, the popular gun you used to shot down ducks in Duck Hunt. Since then, though, the company has encountered backlash for the danger of making a weapon that looks so similar to a child’s toy, as well as the copyright infringement of using the likeness of the Super Scope.
Precision Syndicate responded on their Facebook page, stating the following:
“In light of the ‘Nintendo Glock’ drama, we feel that the media and our fans need to know that this firearm will not be mass produced nor will it ever be. This is a one off custom build for a friend of ours. Do to the thousands of emails and messages we have received in the past 2 days we have been unable to contact everyone in a timely manner, please be patient we will get to you as soon as possible. Thank you all for your support! Oh, and please.. keep your guns locked up and away from children, it’s common sense.”
For the interested, here are a few shots of the Nintendo Glock:
