If you could make a Makeshift Gun/Melee Weapon in DayZ with no limitations..

[Shrapnell 92]

.. what would it be?

Imagine if you had all the resources needed to make a unique, makeshift weapon at your hands in DayZ. Imagine if you could take a bat, a hammer, some nails, and fucking make a bat.. with nails in it.

Imagine if you could wrap barb-wire around a 2x4 and put some spikes in their too.

Imagine if you could saw off the barrel of your gun, tie on a hunting knife, all of that sort of stuff.

What the hell would you make?

I'd take a sledgehammer, a nice, simple one. I'd wrap some barb-wire around the 'sledging' part of it, maybe tie some sharp razor to the end of the handle.

I'd go all fallout and make a rebar club and a bumper sword!

Hammering some nails through a bat and other such weapons will most likely be the way the "crafting" system in Day Z will work. I don't think it'll be anything like Dead Island though which isn't fitting for Day Z.

It needs barb wire.

I don't know what I'd want to make for a weapon, would probably be cool if you could make a bomb of sorts. Everyone likes explosions.

Definitely a Javelin type weapon or spear. Good to keep the zombies at bay.

I hope to see the ability to make all different kinds of IEDs from raw materials.

A fuse-bomb. Made with a magazine, matches, and a jerry can.

Okay, I'd get a grenade launcher or non-lethal tear gas gun in 40mm. I'll remove some of the HE/Tear gas shells projectile and insert correctly sized roadflares. I would then fix a gas lighter on a metal bar going to the tip you ignite. Then, I would lightly douse the flare with petrol. Viola, I now have the ultimate PvP death machine.

A spring loaded bolt launcher, quiet and able to fire anything of a certain size ie, bolts, screwdrivers, knives etc.

Not accurate, but meant for close range.
