When you look at the evolution of firearms, it's been a pretty slow progression when compared to some other things... like electronics.
Then along comes guys like Benjamin Henry, John Browning, David Williams and Eugene Stoner who all thought "out of the box" & gave us some of the greatest designs ever. So far anyway.
Then look at the time frame. All of those mentioned were in the last 150 years or so.
Not very long ago it would be difficult to even imagine 3d printing... but it's common today.
Imagine what our very near future holds.
My impression of the current generation is they aren't stuck thinking in traditional ways. As such, I expect them to come up with something brilliant that makes traditional firearms obsolete.
Of course I don't have a clue what that might be, but we will still be shooting far better than we are now.
Wait & see I guess. I hope I live long enough to see it.
