Technically not a firearm I suppose.
Yes, kind of silly but it got me to wondering when and how they would go about changing the legal definition of "firearm" if we get to a point where we are no longer using chemical propellant.

DAHLGREN, Va. — A futuristic weapon getting a trial run by the Navy demonstrated its destructive power at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Dahlgren.
In the demonstration Thursday, engineers fired the electromagnetic railgun at what they said was a record power level: 10 megajoules.
The previous railgun power-use record was about 9 megajoules of muzzle energy.
