 Welcome
to BandGuns.Com, one of the only websites online
selling rubber band guns designed for use with Society
For Creative Anachronism, Empire of Chivalry and Steel
and LARP rapier combat. We also serve the Steampunk,
CosPlay and Renfaire communities with stylish, historically-accurate,
and realistic pistols. RBG's are the late-period equivalent
of combat archery in the SCA and ECS, and are a great
deal of fun when incorporated into average or larger-sized
melees.
These items are not built in an Asian factory, they are hand-crafted right here in America, one piece at a time using materials bought from other small American businesses.

Before you look at this site and think "Gee, I wonder if they are still in business" the answer is Yes. If you see this website, we are in business.
We are frequently low on much of the stock, and when we DO add a handful of new pistols they tend to sell out within the month. It may look like a ghost town on the In-Stock page but I assure you, we are still very much in business!
If you want a pistol made that's not available you can contact the Gunsmith and put in a special order, the wait time is generally 3-4 weeks.
On the In
Stock and Other Items
pages you can add in-stock items to a shopping
cart and check out. If you have any difficulties
please be sure to contact
the gunsmith.

 All
our pieces are crafted individually by hand, and are
based upon illustrations or photographs of flintlock,
wheel lock, and matchlock firearms used from 1500-1700,
as well as a few variations and hybrids. A great deal
of care and effort goes into these pistols, the end
product we are aiming for is something that looks and
feels like the real thing, as best we can.To see what
bandguns we have for sale, go to the in-stock pages
to see all available items. Our guns are not made as
mass-production items, and our online catalog will vary
from time to time as guns are created or sold.Note:
All our pistols and rifles fire bands made from latex
rubber surgical tubing. These bands hit hard, so be
sure to use protective equipment (such as a fencing
mask) when shooting these at your friends... and we
suggest your friends wear a mask as well.
