>>>In the form of an smg or pistol, having to change out your barrels to reload sounds really ineffective. <<<

Picture a clip with the rounds lined up one after the other - end to end - instead of on top of one another. Thats the clip/barrel of this type weapon!

Suggest you got to post #23 and view the video at the Metal Storm site. Pretty damn impressive if you ask me! you may not want to throw too many rocks at the concept!

I have looked at the site and they really dont explain enough. If they have a way of reloading the weapon without changing the barrel or having to reload bullet by bullet that would be good. I'm not saying I dont like the idea of this technology but as they've described it I dont see how it could replace artillery or even smg's or pistols.

Does anyone know how they load the bullets into the barrels in the first place?
