Is it ejecting spent cartridges from both sides?

Love this a few comments

1) I assume they have no rabbits or in fact any other game in the states
where these are legal. Got a bit of a rabbit problem here that would be
awesome

2) Are you allowed to carry this gun concealed in those states? Just imagine
it :- Is that a gun in your pocket or are you just happy to see me (
although the consequences of a premature discharge could be interesting ) or
when you are held up by an Uzi " you call that a gun now this is a gun"

3) does this come with a car mounting? now that would discourage tail gaters

4) what states isn't it allowed in because I wouldn't want to visit a state
with such wimpy gun laws

It might depend upon the state, but to the best of my recollection,
Texas only considers handguns able to be concealed... Thus, you would be
able to carry such a weapon anyplace that you could normally carry a
rifle or shotgun...

> 3) does this come with a car mounting? now that would discourage tail gaters

It would work better for that with a van or SUV with a rear door that
could be hydraulically opened and then the unit mounted in the rear
cargo area of the vehicle... Of course, you would also need to have a
remote control on the unit... I suspect just the doors opening and the
barrels starting to spin would deter even the most ardent tailgater...
<evil-grin>

Well, technically it would be allowed in all the states since the 2nd
Amendment says, "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED"...

On the other hand, having a similar device that shot paintballs instead
would make for a more appropriate tailgater deterrent...

One of my best celebrity sightings ever, for a born and raised Los
Angelino, was seeing Mr. T stuck next to me in stop-and-go traffic on
the 405.  He was driving a white Mercedes, wearing a purple sleeveless
"tunic" and lots of his characteristic jewelry.  He was just as
helpless as me, A Team be damned.  (It still doesn't beat having
Christmas Brunch a few tables away from Ron Jeremy, though)

I love L.A.

When I was back in the LA area before I went in the Navy, the only
celebrity that I ever saw was Redd Fox coming out of a Scaggs Albertsons
grocery store while I was going in... Best I remember, it was probably
somewhere around Canoga Park or Thousand Oaks... Other than that, I
didn't see anyone... Well, at least anyone that I recognized... Grace on
the other hand ended up sitting across from Tommy Lee Jones while
waiting on her office shuttle driver... Of course, he was probably
waiting on a limo... Still, they were both being 'chauffeured' around --
he just probably had a more expensive vehicle... <grin>

My best (and only) grocery store sighting was Rodney Dangerfield
heading to the Gelson's in Century City.  He was absolutely tanked and
it was still morning.

no, seriously. He is a gentleman and wherever he is, there is a party.

Women flock to him.

However, he can't drive a golf cart while intoxicated.

each show expended about 10,000 shots.
did they _ever_ hit anyone?

I never saw any blood.

Bump up the air pressure a bit to get the velocity to 2000 fps and use
steel BBs... The ultimate tailgater deterrent... <evil-grin>

Several years ago, there was a company that brought a Chevy Suburban
to an NDIA demo shoot at Crane NSWC - - it had been modified with an
oversized "sunroof" to allow an operator to stand up on the seat and
use a spade-grip minigun off of a pintle mount.  IMO, the falling
brass & links must have been tough on the paint job.

For tailgaiters, there's other alternatives ;-)

Actually, there is something much better, but I damn well woundn't put it in
an email for documentation, if I ever get around to it.  It would also
address the people that can't figure out when they need to get out of the
passing lane.  It would leave a permanent, non- lethal opinion.

Evidently the .50 DTC cartridge is still legal in California

So .50 BMG - bad Bad BAD!
the .510 DTC A-OK - heck, its even legal in France. Almost identical
ballistics to the BMG though.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.50_BMG

Evdently, as a point of pride for the Canadians, the longest range confirmed
sniper kill, Canadian Corporal Robert Furlong shot a Taliban insurgent at
2430 meters - 1.51 miles (or 12.08 furlongs).
