damn, is this for real or what? that's a lot of shell if you ask me.

no shell. It's a development of the railgun. Only a metallic bullet moves. No powder, no container.
It could probably fire steel shot. If built properly, the barrel probably shoot a train of projectiles travelling in the barrel at the same time. It's a version of the weapon in the Schwartzie's sci-fi movie Eraser. It has to shoot 16666 projectile per second to make a million rounds per minute. It's more akin an electromagnetic sandblasting unit... Depending on the mass and end velocity of the projectile, it must develop a considerable thrust (just like a jet engine or a sandblast gun). Physics rulez! |
With that many bullets flying in a straight line for such an amount of time, I'd imagine that you could almost start to see them.... not individually... but start to see a line being formed in front of you pretty much.

no moving parts except for the actual projectiles. Very cool indeed.
Sounds like more of a defensive weapon than offensive. |
here is that companies website...you can learn more about all of their weapons there:

Now that's what I call fire power!!

If you set it on "LOW" it gives a really nice massage.

The problem with something like this is that you KNOW the moment you go out and buy one, they come out with the million and 1 rounds a minute version, and your neighbour gets it.
Too hard to keep up with the Jones. |
