You may have heard a little about it... well here is the whole story behind the technology of Metal Storm, the 1,000,000 round per minute, no-moving-part, electronic, machine gun. You'll never guess what inspired the design...

Watch all the way through. You'll get it.

pretty cool. I think he said 1 million rounds per min, not sec.

>>fixed. thanks swampgirl. It's actually funny, I tried to remind myself several times that it's "per minute" not "per second", but I wound up screwing it up. Oh well, when it comes to 1,000,000 rounds per "anything," "anything" starts to not matter anymore. lol.

As fascinating as it is, I was disappointed we got stuck with looking at all these computer generated images. I want to see the real thing fire (if it exists.)

This whole project is a huge waste of tax moneys. You can't reload it quickly, First round gets no rifling so less accurate. Last round is accurate but it is the last round till it goes back to factory or refurbished at a FOB logistic section. Huge waste of time.

Let's just hope it never gets the BSOD or a virus.

There is live video within the first 20 seconds in case you missed it. Watch it again. ...or just listen for the terrifying AAAAAANK sound that means something just got severely deadinated. There is also live video toward the end.

Also, there are plenty of demo videos out there on the web. I posted this one to explain the method behind the gun(s).
