The '''Sticky Launcher''' is a weapon cut from ''Half-Life 2''. It can be found in the playable Development of Half-Life 2 game|''Half-Life 2'' leak.
==Overview==
Appearing like the standard ''Half-Life 2'' 9mm Pistol (Half-Life 2)|pistol, it shoots "Sticky Bombs",Development of Half-Life 2 game|''Half-Life 2'' leak source code red/pink blobs that stick to anything, including enemies (but not to each other), and somehow reflect the surrounding environment. The player can then detonate them with the secondary fire key, much like the Satchel Charge or the S.L.A.M. It also has long range firing capabilities (like a grenade) if pointed higher. It uses medium rounds, which are also used by the OICW and AK-47.Playable Development of Half-Life 2 game|''Half-Life 2'' leak
It is unknown what faction was to use the weapon nor if it was to be in the final version of the game. The pistol model is also probably a placeholder.
