        Sounds pretty similar

        Well the graphics showed walls being blown down, vehicles shattering and missles detroyed, but it was all simulated.

        The Metal Storm is quite capable at all of this stuff

        I don't know about the company name, but all the rest is kosher. Also don't know what strategy they used to deal with recoil, but I think it was something pretty clever.

            There's no way the metalstorm is flashless and bangless.

                Plus Doc Strangelove said that the gun he saw had "electric propulsion", not electronically initiated firing.

                This electric propulsion would go with flashless and bangless

                  Oh all right!!!

                  The Metal Storm is flashless
                  I am bangless.

                  Happy?!!

                      Looks like an electric motor spins a disk, which thus accelerates rounds.

                        That article's full of holes, unfortunately.

                        It makes a lot of claims that are physically impossible.

                          That's because it's a magic item, silly.

                            'kay the recoil-less bit is easy if you're firing in a 360 degree range. The forces simply cancel out.

                            Sounds like they've done some fancy work on recoil-attenuation for other firing configurations too.

                            They're having themselves on with the frictionless claim. Someone's been spending too much time staring at goats,.. I mean besides Joncha.
