The other nite I watched an olde Western movie that had a wild banjo player always in trouble!! Three tough gunman came in town to kill him and he asked if he could play one last song. He played a few notes then turned his banjo over and had a rifle built into the neck and body !! He drilled those three gunman before they could pull a gun !! Wildest thing I ever saw !! Every banjo player should get one of these !! Would probably work on a lap steel also !! My thought for the day !! Eddie "C" AKA the old geezer

When considering the sound that comes out of a banjo, I'm surprised that banjos don't come standard with a gun installed for self defense.

I am a survivor of many a banjo blast.
Every banjo should be registered with the NRA.
You might be at a concert and all of a sudden a banjo player could walk on stage.

Gotta love spaghetti westerns.

Then there's this ... the mythical yet real rifle guitar built by master jazz guitar builder John D'Angelico.

If you run out of ammo, you can bop your opponents with this:
