	Club (weapon) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Shillelagh (pronounced "shil-LAY-lee") is a wooden club or cudgel, typically made from a stout knotty stick with a large knob on the end, that is associated with Ireland in folklore.
		Shillelaghs may be hollowed at the heavy "hitting" end and filled with molten lead to increase the weight; this sort of Shillelagh is known as a 'loaded stick'.
		X-Men villain Black Tom Cassidy was known to wield a Shillelagh both as a club and, as his mutant power, generate destructive concussive force through the wooden stick.

	MGM-51 Shillelagh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Ford MGM-51 Shillelagh was an anti-tank guided missile designed to be launched from a conventional gun (cannon).
		It was originally intended to be the medium-range portion of a short, medium, long-range system for armored fighting vehicles in the 1960s and '70s, but proved the idea unworkable instead.
		The Shillelagh was considerably larger than a conventional round, so only a small number could be carried.
