Good news is that zip guns are perfectly legal in the USA because the government realized they are completely impossible to regulate since there is no single definition on a "zip gun" or something like that. The bad news is that many home-made zip guns are unreliable pieces of shit and have just as much chance blowing your hands off than actually working effectively.

Yes they are impossible to regulate, doesn't mean they're not illegal. This also depends on the state. In some states they are legal as long as they aren't a shot barreled rifle, shotgun or machinegun and as long as they aren't disguised as another object, i.e. a pen, flashlight or cane.
Why do I get the feeling this thread is going to be locked down soon?

A shovel would be a pretty good improvised weapon. Just don't swing it. Too slow, heavy, and cumbersome to do that. A forward thrust is what you should do.
Does it count as improvised if it was made as a sculpture?
