* These weapons could deal non-physical damage depending on GM approval.

Fantastic idea. Possibly suitable for a Gamma World Wiki contribution? I'll submit anchor (tethered by chain, or not) as a heavy 2-handed ranged weapon. LaCrosse stick is amazing.

Tailgate: Shield / Heavy 2-handed weapon
Vaccum: 2-hand wpn; Lt. / Hvy
Flat Panel Tv: Shield
Ironing Board: Shield / Heavy 2-handed weapon
Suitcase: Variable melee depending on size and contents.
Kitchen Sink (stainless steel): Shield / Heavy 2-handed weapon
Microphone w/chord: 2-hand Light (1-hand light w/out chord)
Tricycle: 1-hand / 2-hand Hvy
* Size and strength can alter the use of an item, thus my multiple categories.

Yup. The fun part is that almost anything can be a weapon and a shield, depending on how you hold it.
Shields can include
Manhole covers
Garbage can lids
Stock pot lid
End tables
Fridge/freezer doors
Washer/dryer doors
Cabinet doors
Hubcaps
Wooden chessboard
Planks

Another thing to keep in mind is dual wielding -- if someone wants to use a pair of katanas or something, just count it as a two-handed weapon. If they lose one of the weapons, it drops to the stats for a one-handed weapon.
ETA:
This is also how you go John Woo with a pair of pistols.

Good call there. I can't even begin to count the number of times I've had to facepalm when people feel the need to ask about dual weilding weapons (in any game system).

For those who want to translate GUNS into GW stats.
LIGHT 1 HANDED GUN
Most handguns and revolvers.
9mm, .38 special, Glock
LIGHT 2 HANDED GUN
Assault Rifle (M-16)
Submachine Gun (Uzi)
Small/Light hunting rifle (.223)
Precision Sniper Rifle (H&K PSG1)
HEAVY 1 HANDED GUN
Heavy handgun or revolver
Any magnum, Colt .45, Desert Eagle
HEAVY 2 HANDED GUN
Heavy Assault Rifle (AK-47)
Light Belt-Fed Machinegun
Shotguns
Large Hunting Rifle (30-06, .303)
Powerful Sniper Rifle (Barret Model 82)
And I do like the rule that using paired weapons simply counts as a 2-handed weapon of the relevant type.

This weekend I'll try and post the list of make-shift weapons I had developed for my own conversion of D&D 4E to Gamma World before I learned that there was to be a 7th edition of GW. You might get a few good ideas for the list.
