Hoppy590, NCLivingBrit, Wheelgunslinger and Henry Bowman, thank you for the welcome and kind words, I'm quite embarrassed. :eek:

The young chap who started this thread here - and on many other sites - is not a well sausage.

He came onto the site I frequent most regularly and tried the same tricks.
He was shown by a number of posters that the products of his fertile* imagination would not work and even if they could there was no military or police use for them.

Peeved that he'd been informed he really wasn't the reincarnation of John Moses he threw a track and started being a royal pain on the site. Multiple log-ins, cross posting and holding conversatios with himself, the usual trolling activities.
I'd be astonished if he doesn't already have some 'sleeper' identities registered here.

He even used my log-in on other sites and caused them so much trouble that some of the owners contacted me on the military site to ask what the heck was going on. Well, I suppose imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. :)


Stop Press. I've just received a PM from our window-licking friend !
It's a single word and reads: "Stalker"

I think he's forgotten to take his medication. Again.



* One assumes his mind is fertilised with the same substance that farmers spead on their fields.
 
Ah, could be worse Cutaway.

Our friend could be a scary overly-tanned (think crocodile hide) scary older woman from Canada who swears blind that not only are you a vampire, but are her soul-mate and promised to her by destiny.

Which ain't bad for a Brit from a welfare project town, but it ain't me!
 
As for weapon design...

I'd like to see a .22LR minigun...

That's the kind of logic that makes the claymore mine excellent for its purpose. Each projectile, individually, isn't worth much. But when you've got several thousand all at once...

The main problem I see is that the belt would probably weigh nearly as much as the ammo, and take up nearly as much room in the box. And I don't think a linkless feed system would work, with the rim. Maybe .25 ACP would be a better choice?

Hm, a lot of the limit on rate of fire is the width of the cartridge. A very small caliber round could probably be fired at 200 shots per second pretty easily.
 
Hey, guys, a quick note regarding my post #26, above. It can be frustrating dealing with posters who show trollish behavior, and immensely satisfying when such trolls get an ultimate cyber-smackdown. Those smackdowns should only attack a poster's statements, not his personal habits or intelligence or likeability. I'm sorry I forgot, too.
