Have any of the shootingpunks on the list heard of constructing a firearm from something akin to a internal combustion chamber?
You can buy one at Home Depot! It's called a cordless nailer. Powered by "fuel cells" which are probably propane. The Porter-Cable "Bammer" is one model.
I'll check into it. My thought was to create a very high rate of fire, simple and effective full auto weapon for caseless ammo.
In the US, at the federal level and at most of the state levels, I believe this would qualify as a firearm, as the expansion of hot gasses are responsible for forward motion of a projectile. -- Yours, J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org If Governments really want us to behave like civilized human beings, they should give serious consideration towards setting a better example: Ruling by force, rather than consensus; the unrestrained application of unjust laws (which the victim-populations were never allowed input on in the first place); the State policy of justice only for the rich and elected; the intentional abuse and occassionally destruction of entire populations merely to distract an already apathetic and numb electorate... This type of demogoguery must surely wipe out the fascist United States as surely as it wiped out the fascist Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The views expressed here are mine, and NOT those of my employers, associates, or others. Besides, if it *were* the opinion of all of those people, I doubt there would be a problem to bitch about in the first place... --------------------------------------------------------------------
