Hey, don’t lump US prone shooters in with the Whining Sheilas.

Yes but any class III machine gun dealer can own a new machine gun, its called a dealer sample. He just cant sell it to a private citizen. Law enforcment is a different matter..

“Typical Americans–just a bunch of whinging Sheilas.”

If it wasn’t for the whinging Sheilas you would be speaking Japanese right now!!

Good one! Also under development is a 12 caliber version that uses big nails as projectiles to reduce the cost of ammo….sort of a ‘machine gun stapler’.

The ‘NHSS’ version (Nail Head Super Stapler) is being tested by air gun BR ‘smith/air cylinder re-filler Cal Billfee. He says “Man, even though I’ve never fired a shot from a real gun, I can tell ‘ya that this thing is killer accurate. If people will just listen to me, I can show them how to use this to be just a killer shooter, man. Send me a self addressed letter stuffed with $100 bills and I’ll lead you down the pathway to killer accuracy, man. 5 years from now, everyone will have to have one of these or you’ll be shootin’ for last place, man.

“Make sure and send lots of those big bills, man ‘cuz I just found a place that sells some killer liverwurst. I slice it up and put some onions on it and stack it on some killer bread and it’s just killer good. I also have some Killer Koolaid to drink with it, man. Lots of guys I know love the Koolaid I make up, man. It’s just killer.”

Yep,
Good old April fools day stuff I’d have to say.
Metal storm technology is for real but this guy has never been in competition and nor has the gun. Metal Storm technology is from my home city of Brisbane so they do exist. I do shoot benchrest and am in the Hall of Fame and we sure ain’t never seen this fellow or the gun. The targets in the picture are US benchrest targets. Aussie targets have a SSAA badge on them and a centre line between the two boxes.
Someone made this lot up….but not quite good enough. The technology is for real though.

Suckers. Don’t you recognize Jef Fowlers world record targets when you see them.

I like the off kilter leupold mounted behind the “barrel block”.
An excellent piece of April foolery (like strategery).
Well done!

You’ve got a great sense of humor. This is even better than last years. Both would be hard to top.
