Mini-morning star heads ( that is, a morning star flail without the
handle and chain), fired out of a shotgun. Available in
buckshot sizes or
slug sizes. Can't think of a Geneva-convention-approved use for
them,
but then again... not all nations are signatories to all or parts of the
Geneva
Conventions.

I know what some of you will be asking me: do I really want to
give such a weapon to the sort of nations who are most likely to
use it? And my answer is this: I'm sorry... *give*? I wouldn't
*give* these people the time of day. *Selling*, on the other
hand... now that, my friends, is a question of a different color. |

Thought the subtitle answered that... a handful of mini morning
stars (sans handles), or a single large shooter marble-sized
morning star head, packed into a shotgun shell. The result would
essentially be spiky buckshot, or a spiky musketball. |

Ah, gotcha. Post amended. |

The ethics of bird shot have always bothered me. Those tiny avian creatures, genetically modified and bred for size and temperment, loaded into a small cartridge and condemned to lie in darkness until somebody pulls the trigger. |

From the title I had pictured a repeating mace with cartridge/spikes. |

Oh, then you'd really be bothered by my steampunk catling
gun... |

There is already an existing 'novelty cartridge' which fires a
pair of balls connected by a short length of braided wire.
Just add spikes. |

Saw that demonstrated on FPS Russia. I believe it was called Bolo
shot. My idea is basically that, minus the connecting wire, plus
spikes. The connecting wire AND spikes, however... now that
would be interesting. |

And then there's a morning glory shot, which is
altogether different. |
