I would like to see one using a very small caliber like the .17 or 22 caliber. Problem is that ammunition like whats needed for these is really troubling the market, try buying ammo nowadays, also check out what the price of copper has risen to with all the demand for it in the bullet component process. What we really need is a new form of bullet, like a dense ceramic that has ballistic stability. Or better yet “smart” bullets that can home in on heat sources or a laser designator, “fire and forget”, the key is not mass “spray and pray” but guided munitions. I remember a Tom Selleck movie that used a guided bullet, THATS what we need.

That would be Runaway, released in 1984.

I particularly liked Gene Simmons (of the band Kiss) as the bad guy. He met a fitting end. *snicker*
