Looks like what my nephew describes as a throwing weight for track and field, although id say they are alotmore heavy than those are. BUUUT, it's obviously a pig castrator!

I never heard of a clam gun before.

I have been watching a great many of "The Fish Locker" videos on YouTube, which are excellent. He pours salt on the small holes above the clam and waits for the clams to push themselves up. He catches many razor clams that way.

The clam gun looks more efficient.

I didn't know what it was called but was going to say I saw a video of a guy using something similar to get clams out of the sand

Well, you guys figured it out; a clam gun. It kind of surprised me that a national chain like Basspro would stock a whole isle of them. In my past experience these big box outdoor stores aren't very good about stocking strictly regional items.
