        <description><![CDATA[My first thought is about the effectiveness of it. Both the rifled musket and the machine gun were comparable and similar improvements. They both changed warfare greatly. The battlefield could become far more deadly and I cannot see body armor working against the rounds this is made for. This also has some other obvious applications. ... Yah, real obvious. It is part of a bigger change. This might seem like a nice gun or effective weapon, but it is also part of a bigger class of change. ... Dang, one more thing for me to figure out how to deal with.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[All it would take is an EM pulse to render that technology useless... The military and law enforcement could use that as a serious advantage should they encounter an enemy that is using the weapon to do harm against them... By that same token, an enemy with a little knowledge could use that against us if we were to rely to heavily on the technology. I agree that the gun could be bad in the wrong hands, at the same time I can see a few disadvantages for the gunman and advantages for the good guys. If used properly by hunters, it should mean fewer animals wounded by idiots (more humane kills). That would be an awesome gun for farmers to use for pest control.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[Some urban areas are overrun with deer, but officials worry (understandably) that shooters (even professional ones) wouldn't be accurate enough for such a confined area.  And animal lovers would have the assurance of a fast clean kill.I wonder if they could adapt this system to work with tranquilizer dart guns, which are notoriously inaccurate.  That would help conservationists study endangered animals, and help park rangers relocate dangerous bears.]]></description>
