A boomstick is a defensive weapon utilized by divers to protect themselves against oceanic predators; primarily sharks. The weapon is an impact-sensitive firearm that houses a shotgun shell at its tip. When the boomstick makes contact with a surface, the round is discharged into said surface, causing damage accordingly.

Slang


A boomstick, in slang terms, is also another word for a gun, usually a 12 gauge, double barrel, sawn-off shotgun. If used in a casual manner, a hick stereotype might use this word.

The term "boomstick" was used by Bruce Campbell's character, Ash Williams, in the movie Army of Darkness. He used this word to describe his gun to a group of villagers after he was sent back in time. The word has also become somewhat of a staple in the lexicon of fans, and has also made its way into a video game based on the film: Evil Dead: A Fistful of Boomstick. Because of the reference to Army of Darkness, it most likely is the reason the term is used in the Quake series of games to describe a double-barrelled shotgun. Boomstick is also used to describe the pump shotgun in the popular online game Counter-Strike.
