Radio-controlled bullets leave no place to hide

Interesting read here.

Saw a taped demo of this one and it would seem to work as advertised. You have no place to hide and they can definetely reach out and touch you with the explosive round.

They could do that with an M79, and it didn't seem to make a big change in how war was fought. These are incremental changes; there may be some small additional value, but I wouldn't be overwhelmed by this. Let's remember that it's a 25mm round, and if you want any kind of flat trajectory, you will have to have one heck of a shoulder to SHOOT this mother; else it's a small M79.

Might help me get a clean shoot.

Now THAT'S a different story! ?Just when in the 19th century do you recollect seeing this kind of weapon. Actually, were I to use a gatling gun, it would help my score, but somehow I don't think the match director would agree.

Every western that John Wayne, Gene Autry, Roy Rogers, etc... were in. They could hit anything with their six shooter!! <img src='http://www.goodguysposse.org/forums/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/gunfighter.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':gunfighter:' /> They must have had radar guided bullets.<br />

Problem is that every kid with a garage door opener will be trying to set them off.

Devereaux

Ah, but you see, opening the garage door implies you MAY be doing work, and today's kids are even more averse to work than we were (I think it might have been that our parents didn't let us off the hook so easily).
