I had made an airgun with a barrel made out of pen tubes for needles but the needles tumbled so I had to shoot from 5cm to have it stick I might make a video of it one day. it could mark coins and deform the needles.

So if they could stabilize by spin (impossible) it would make a nice target shooter at long ranges.

If you had a small enough rifled barrel needles would spin

Manche Dinge müssen nicht mehr erfunden werden. Cool

I've used these in a slingshot. Got to be honest, slightly scary having a pointy bit of metal fly right over your hand, but very fun and stick amazingly well into wood.
