    It could be cool,
    if they could get it to work over more than just idealized experimental conditions

        It wasn't a very good answer. What's wrong with more firepower?

          Zylka is indeed the master. even Sava, that supposedly hates him, uses his methods, albeit in a very crude and unskilled manner.

              Hey, we need something to crush the coming communist revolution with. That's assuming, of course, that you pussies stop talking about the revolution and actually bring it.

                This sounds like a load of old bollocks. I bet we never hear of this again.

                  Australia develops supergun?

                  Some people are just paranoid about illegal immigrants...

                  Anyway, not possible to sustain fire for very long. Too much heat.

                  It might TECHNICALLY have an ROF that high - I doubt it could maintain it.

                    I wouldn't mind having one of these babies, but I doubt you could get a regular Joe soldier to use it effectively at first. Also, it's probably prohibitively expensive.

                        Damn it.. they obviously stole this from my Punisher Weapon Systems. This is a copy of my Shotgun From Hell! Well mine wasn't very modern, but I wonder if I can sue these dudes!

                            Maybe we can reach a settlement.. I don't sue them, and they'll buy my The Sleep Watcher Systems, so they can re-sell it to the Americans and few other countries. I could live with that.

                              What's the point?

                              1 milion rounds per minute is overkill of the worst sort, and a waste of rounds.

                              Nice gadget, but little better than that.

                                well, for use as anti-personnel, as the MG-42 was, it would be pointoless, but this would be an awesome anti missile defense system.
