BrickTactical guns are the custom LEGO guns and weapons I design and injection mold myself for minifigures. In this video I go over some of my favorite pieces I have ever made, from modular rocket launchers and machine guns to ray guns, energy weapons and sabers, and this page collects every one of them in one spot. Watch the video, shop the guns from it right below, then read on for the story behind BrickTactical and a breakdown of each type of gun we make.

How BrickTactical guns got started
I love the custom LEGO minifigure. The design is impeccable, the parts are modular and you can turn a blank minifigure into something completely custom. What I love most is making the injection molded pieces that go in its hands, on its head and around its torso: weapons, helmets, vests and headgear.
I started on YouTube back in 2010, building dioramas, kits and models. Over time I noticed there were accessories nobody was making, and I wanted to fill that gap. My very first injection molded product came out in 2013: a set of blocky crafting tools with a sword, pickaxe, axe, hoe and shovel. The demand was huge, and that put me on the path I am on today. Now I make weapons, helmets, vests and headgear, and I have a huge list of designs still to come. Every BrickTactical gun is made in house, right in my own shop. Injection Molded in the USA.
Modular and overmolded guns
Two things make a lot of BrickTactical guns different: modular parts and overmolding. Modular means the gun comes in pieces you build yourself with no glue required. Overmolding means two colors of plastic are molded together into one solid part. Think of a toothbrush with a hard plastic handle and a soft rubber grip wrapped around it. You get two tone and three tone looks with no paint, no printing and no decals.
My modular rocket launcher is five parts, and you can actually rotate the barrels to index to the next shot, which is still one of my favorite features on any weapon I have made. The RPG launchers are another favorite. They have removable rockets, so you can pull them out and swap them for the standard, slim, ridged or fat rocket. Grab the RPG 7 Rocket Launcher or the RPG 7 Slim Rocket, and for an overmolded long gun check out the Overmolded Heavy Sniper.

Machine guns
The PKM is a heavy machine gun made of three parts: the gun, a detachable box magazine with bullets on the side, and a bipod you can clip on and off. Leave the bipod on for a minifigure laying prone or resting it on a crate, or pull it off for a run and gun look. The PKM Machine Gun Suppressed adds a suppressor on the end.
The BrickTactical M2 Machine Gun is one of the most meaningful pieces I have ever made. It comes with multiple modular parts, including a tripod, so you build it yourself. For more firepower there is the M247H Machine Gun and the M41 Vulcan Machine Gun.

AKs, shotguns and sniper rifles
I had always wanted to make a suppressed AK with an optic, and now there is a whole AK lineup, from the classic AK47 Rifle to the AK Rifle Long Mag. For close quarters, the BT12 Shotgun is a fun, chunky shotgun with the stock folded, and the BT12 Shotgun w/ Stock has it unfolded.
The BT SVD Sniper Rifle is a really cool sniper rifle, and an overmolded version is on my list. I definitely want to make more sniper rifles in the future.

Sci fi guns and energy weapons
I am a huge fan of sci fi shooters, and a lot of BrickTactical guns come from that. The Raygun and the MK2 Raygun are a must for zombie builds. The Energy Pistol might be my favorite energy weapon from any game. The Battle Rifle has the triangle details running along the stock and is based on a classic three shot burst rifle, and the M6G Magnum rounds out the sidearms.
Sabers and melee weapons
The moment I saw the black bladed saber from the hit space western show, I knew I had to make it. The Printed Darkblade adds white detail along the blade and hand guard and it really pops, and the Darkblade Hilt is there if you want the hilt on its own. The Energy Blade is molded in transparent light blue, the Tomahawk is made for close quarters builds, and the Gravity Hammer is a must for any sci fi army.
Blaster packs for army builders
If you are building a big space army, the blaster packs are the easiest way to arm everyone at once. Each pack comes with 10 blasters, and they are way more detailed than the basic blasters you usually find in sets. The quad blaster is one of my top five products of all time, with 14 modular parts.
