Sure why the hell not? I know if I was going to die in combat I would rather have 4000 rounds pumped into me in less than a second rather than getting hit with a rifle and having to live through pain.

............Were not talking about the pain inflicted, but the fact that you can kill even more in mass with this weapon. + Im pretty sure a golf ball like projectile will hurt like a motherfucker.

You have a chance if you get hit with a regular weapon, look at the casualties from past wars, there is always about double the wounded than there is KIA - With weapons like these there will be NO wounded. One quick pull of the trigger and instant death. No second chance.

You ever noticed as the more dangerous the weapons become, the less casualties there are? I mean, christ, look at all the Medieval wars...thousands die within an hour. Then there goes the Civil War...millions die, and the rifles are weak as guck...modern combat, and we got the most souped-up weapons ever, and somehow the casualties are only in the thousands (Not that thats not high, just compared to past history..)

Ok. So you can make a gun that makes no sound. You can make a gun that doesn't involve gunpowder and can produce the equivilant firepower of an entire army...
..but you can't make a car with no gas?
..but can't beat the common cold?
..but can't get out of the solar system?
..but can't make a cheeseburger with no saturated fat?
I think humanities priorities may be off a bit. annoy:

Obviously. You give me one reason why humans are on this Earth and I'll start caring about every single persons' life.

Exactly. Absolutely no chance of survival. Way more deaths will occur as a result of massproducing a weapon like that...

You're assuming that every other country in the world is a killing machine, wants a weapon like that, and will commit genocide/massacres. oOo:

Actually I'm not. I'm assuming that the technology will be taken up as the pinnacle of small arms for the future generations of weapons, they will be used just as much as current guns except the end result will be no wounded casualties and all deaths. Bitchcake.
