4"? So it's limited to the biggest... of small arms.

And from the sound of things, it requires consistent lasing/painting of the target. Not exactly Fire and Forget, like the ideal iteration would be...

That will never reach civilian hands

I think they are talking about length not width. And although that is huge in bullet standards they did say it was more like a dart.

$100 this is outlawed to civilians if it actually works.

These would be awesome for FPR matches @ Palo Alto, just have my spotter "paint" my target and bingo! Wind.....what wind, I can hit the target all day long! lol


I seriously doubt the gov would let this get into civilian hands, sorry 03P, no bet!

4" long projectile doesn't sound very fun to shoulder-fire at 2200fps.

Sounds like a 4in. laser guided missile.
