Crazy New Weapon......CHECK this out

[DPGLAW]

This is a new weapon called DREAD. It apparently fires both .30 and .50 caliber steel balls with no flash, no sound, meaning that it is stealth. It also has no recoil....wait till you read about this gun, it's crazy and I think that it will literally change the way war is fought as this could destroy anything in it's path.

"Remote DREAD Centrifuge Gun Pods can be outfitted with heat and motion sensors, and left in unmanned areas. These remote pods can be pre-programmed with both less-lethal/non-lethal and lethal protocols that would function automatically and not require a human operator."

--sounds like the sentry gun from Counterstrike rofl rofl

Interesting.

What's the accuracy on that thing?

Interesting.

What's the accuracy on that thing?

Probably not that great considering that it fires round shot with a variable velocity.

the DREAD's ammunition will be .30 and .50 caliber round metal balls (steel, tungsten, tungsten carbide, etc...) that will be literally spun out of the weapon at speeds as high as 8000 fps (give or take a few hundred feet-per-second), striking their targets with overwhelming and devastating firepower.
I can see some uses for it such as mounted on top of an APC and being used for suppresion.

I can't wait to see this thing in action some day. I think they should send it over to iraq or Saudi Arabia and let our soldiers take some target practice on these terrorist cameljockeys...They certainley deserve it and they would really get a taste of what happens to you when you mess with America....

Simple **** :) not worth mentioning and not much practical for things other than grenade laucher I think...
