It’s kind of like putting a Rolls Royce grille on a Volkswagen Beetle, but it lets you go out into the woods in Muzzleloader season looking evil and scary…Bet some game wardens have a heart attack when they see it.
I like the AR-15 Monkey Upper better. When the hammer falls on the monkey’s tail, he flies forward off the rail. Accuracy and range aren’t very good, but entertainment value is high. The psychological effect on an adversary of having an angry monkey clawing and biting his face is also said to be high. LA SWAT teams have already been issued the Monkey Upper for use in hostage situations, and the US Army is considering using it in Iraq to reduce incidents of pick pocketing.
The inventor of the Monkey Upper, Belgium-based, August Bruler, recently stated, “There is only one thing that cannot be launched from the AR-15 platform, but we have yet to make a determination as to what that would constitute.”
FN is said to be interested in the idea as an “up caliber” compliment to their widely laughed at FN Five Seven. An FN spokesman who spoke on condition of anonymity said, “I don’t care how big you are, you can’t laugh at a monkey on your face.”
When asked about the fact that the monkey that the Monkey Upper launches is fairly small, the spokesman replied, “Small! Small! I am sick of hearing about small!”
