👉 A novelty weapon, often referred to as a "novelty gun" or "gadget gun," is an unconventional firearm designed primarily for entertainment and showmanship rather than practical self-defense. These weapons typically feature unusual designs, unconventional materials, or exaggerated features that make them visually striking and often humorous. They may include items like toy guns, airsoft guns, or even modified everyday objects repurposed as firearms. Unlike traditional firearms, novelty weapons are not regulated for civilian use and are usually intended to be displayed or used in controlled environments such as parades, events, or competitions. Their primary appeal lies in their novelty and the amusement they provide, rather than their effectiveness or safety as a weapon.
