This answer in Space SE contains the images below which come from a 1959 report on project Horizon which was found here (direct link to PDF).
The images show an astronaut on the Moon using a hand-held weapon using a Claymore mine on the end of a stick to disable and perhaps kill several other astronauts at the same time.
Question: Is this a rare instance of fact being "stranger than fiction", or has something like this hand-held Claymore mine-based weapon been written about or shown in science fiction earlier than it was proposed for use in reality, which usually turns out to be the case?
Some of the other links in that answer are probably also interesting to read.
