Semi-retired like Vito Corleone before the heart attack. Consiglieri to J.Kb and AWA. I lived in a Gun Control Paradise: It sucked and got people killed. I do believe that Freedom scares the political elites.

Sad thing about the revolver … it’s believable.
me minion is 20mm baby!
Boberg shipped a single shot tweak of the XR-9, which the customer could then restore to normal operation, specifically to get around CA idiocy.
On the Gatling, is that a 20 or a 30? I know the Dutch navy operates systems like that which use the GAU-8 (from the Warthog) as the gun. Nice way to deal with suicide bomber terrorists and other pirates.
The CIWS in the US Navy is a 20mm gatling gun with two radars in the dome.
Very effective!
That’s what I thought. The Dutch system is called Gatekeeper: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Goalkeeper_CIWS
Nice, because it is likely to work effectively not just on missiles but also on enemy ships, at least the smaller ones. Actually, I wonder how many current day Navy ships have enough armor to stop a round from the GAU-8. Tanks can’t do it, that’s the whole point of that gun. Battleships have armor, but do modern war ships?
