…To These Firearms Manufacturers

"An iconic science-fiction firearm, the M41A pulse rifle is the standard-issue weapon of the Colonial Marines, the ill-fated, but unquestionably badass protagonists in James Cameron's 1986 blockbuster: "Aliens."

Because of its huge popularity — I mean come on, that thing is way more badass than a blaster from "Star Wars" — a number of gun aficionados and sci-fi fans have made their own versions of the combo-pulse rifle and grenade launcher over the years, and the videos are again making the rounds.
