Smart gun? A gun still waiting for a doped operator to pull the trigger before it goes fire, cannot be too smart at all. Actually it seems to be a very dumb gun. :D

40mm for president!

Skybird just raised a very interesting point with his "40mm for president" line.

Man-portable, direct-control, indirect-fire weapon.

If I were Secret Service, I'd be hating this idea a lot.

How many presidents have been shot with a pistol? 6-7?

JFK was the only one shot with a Military Weapon IIRC.

Honestly I think the Secret Service has more to fear from a pip bomb or 9mm pistol than a weapon like this.

Well its not like the 10s of thousands of AKs floating around there.

I would imagine that at least for the time being they have a pretty tight inventory control.

Do you give a girl an XM-25 if she has been good or naughty? :D

Yes.

Frau,

Lemme guess. you are good, but when you are bad, you are better. :shucks:

Hey... I resemble that insinuation!

I like the comment, " Finally - the flying Claymore. The toy, the world's been waiting for..." :haha:

Weapons mean nothing if your determined to kill someone.
The only time a special weapon is considered is if you intend to get away.
If I have no intentions of escape?
Your dead.
I'm dead.
Everyone wonders why it happened.

It is not an insinuation, but a reputation. :salute::salute:

:agree:

Bit offtopic. But what does XM mean? Besides Satellite radio? :haha:

IIRC:
X means Experimental
M is a letter added to every weapon (kinda like the Navy use of 'Mark')
The # is to specify the specific weapon (not necessarily sequential).

XM-25 means experimental weapon # 25.

XM-25 is a recycled designation so when its accepted in to service it may receive a different M number (there is a M25 sniper rifle that was also called the XM-25 when in development)
