a load of bullshit essentially.
Specifically, i believe the spec is that it's some kind of Ninja Commando CQB martial art utilizing some kind of "multiweapon". There is a weird grip that mates to a sidearm or a knifeblade. |

I don't understand the advantage to having a handle that attaches to a gun and knife. Seems like if you're disarmed, you're screwed. You don't have a back-up weapon.

Explanation.
Example. BTW the second vid is the whole ending of the movie and if you havent seen it just watch the first minute. It's called Equilibrium. Last edited by Crazy Legs; 07-02-2012 at 07:52 PM.. |

own the movie, but this is vastly different than the BattleKata Roadblock is rocking.
Also, Gun Fu is bullshit. Entertaining, but still bullshit. |

The way they explained it at the con, was that it was a custom grip piece that was basically adaptable to all of your custom weaponry, so for example if you are shooting a gun at someone in front of you, and then you realize someone is coming up behind you, you can push something that causes the gun portion to fall off, then reach behind you with the handle part which could then attach to a sword you're carrying on your back. In theory, it's supposed to be some kind of multi-purpose adaptable weapons system. To me though, it seems incredibly impractical and basically just like a Hollywood gun scene/way to sell toys.
