    Yeah, but it's not so amazing when it's pointed to your head.

    we're way too insignificant for anyone to waste a million rounds on so i seriously doubt if anyone is actually going to point that thing at us. but it sure is a radicle new weapon system.

    Metal Storm is a good technical exercise but it will never go into any kind of service. Electrically based weapons just can't hold up to the elements like current firearms can.

    On the other hand, they can't jam.

    I don't want a big car, particularly. I have no need for acreage, and I don't like the fuel bills. But I don't want a small one because they're all like supermarket own-brand cola: weedy imitations of the real thing - Jeremy Clarkson
