      16.6 thousand rounds per second? How do you feed ammunition into it that fast? That's downright nutty!

        My question:
        How do you keep the gun from melting?

            Must be mkII of the design as he was trying to sell this a few years ago.
            Ideal gun for terrorists though.

                  Well, I don't think ALL weapons are gonna be banned any time soon, so this type of weapon has distinctive advantages, instead of a minefield, for example. A commander doesn't have to shout CEASE FIRE! He just pushes a button on his remote control.

                  Wonder how well it works in the rain...
                  How can you possibly take anything seriously?
                  Who cares?

                      I guess that would take about 0.001 seconds

                        In that case you use the latest in grenade designed for the OICW (Objective Individual Combat Weapon). It's grenade has a programmable fuse and the electronics to use it effectively.

                        You first use its laser rangefinder to get the range to the obstacle, estimate the thickness of said obstacle then fire. The shell passes over the obstacle, passes it by the programed distance then explodes in a downward hail of anti-personnel fragments.

                            Military family and grew up on a farm, which meant a gun for each purpose....just like any other tool. No, you shouldn't really shoot vermin with a 30-06 nor should one shoot deer with a .22, and wingshooting pheasants with a pistol isn't really that easy

                              Red already mentioned it. The ideal use for something that fast is defense. Naval ships currently have tracking systems that control anti-missile cannons. This is a nice improvement for them.
