Best April Fools of 2019

Magpul Polymer Waffle Maker

First up… This April Fools’ joke is right on point. Posted on the high-tech polymer and composite firearms accessory giant’s Facebook page and Instagram, the post reads “You’ll stop skipping breakfast.” The photo says the rest. Dear Magpul, we really wish this were a real thing!

BRN-134D™ Minigun

Next… Brownells gets us good with their debut of the new BRN-134D™ Minigun priced just for April Fools’ Day at $125,000.

The post reads: In this special edition of our weekly Brownells new products vlog, Paul Levy shows us the new BRN-134D™ Minigun. Developed in partnership Dillon Aero, the BRN-134D is the latest addition to Brownells line of detail-correct semi-auto clones of military firearms. It sports all the standard Minigun features: rotary barrel system with 6 ordnance-grade steel barrels chambered in 7.62×51 NATO, electric-powered motor, disintegrating link feed chute, and a 3,000 round ammo box. The BRN-134D comes with a Picatinny rail up top for the red dot or scope of your choice (optic not included) and an aircraft-mountable stand of rugged, powder-coated steel (included). The price? Surprisingly reasonable!

Get Out Of Jail Free Card

Finally, the Joliet Police Department in Illinois have really found a way to build trust with select members of the community. The post on their Facebook page this morning reads: Today only, stop by our station to pick up a “Get Out Of Jail Free” card! If you have a warrant, come on in and one of our officers can take care of that for you as well!
