Guns actually shoot "glimmer".
Ever noticed how ammo packs look digital, like glimmer?
Ever noticed how the ammo is universal?
Glimmer is programmable material, which means they turn it into ammunition.

You know, you can load a shotgun with bubble gum, and it will fire, but it doesn't change the fact that the chamber needs to be aligned with the barrel to work.

Edited by Snow: 5/25/2015 10:37:10 AMYeah, and we used to have to put gunpowder into weapons and shove the bullet down the barrel, but design and function changes. The proof is in the fact we, today, have weapons who's barrels can bend 90 degrees around the corner and shoot.
-
Uhm... no. We do not have "weapons with barrels that bend 90 degrees and shoot".
-
There are guns that do this look up corner shot.
-
The corner shot does not "bend the barrel 90 degrees"... I am well aware of what the corner shot does, and it's not that. It's a platform in which you place a standard sidearm. The platform moves the entire weapon and allows you to fire it, "around corners" by virtue of a camera you can use for targeting. He specifically stated ""who's barrels can bend 90 degrees around the corner and shoot", which is simply not true in the slightest.

I'm sorry but... you're an idiot. (read above)

The Germans actually produced a few working firearms with angled barrels during the second world war. They were used in conjunction with a sort of periscope for firing over the top of trenches and around corners. It wasn't something that was made in great numbers, or carried by every soldier on the field, but they [i]did[/i] make some and they [i]do[/i] work. I don't remember the designation for the weapon, but with a little help from Google I'm sure you'll find what I'm talking about. Assuming of course that you care to look it up.
-
The statement about the barrel might be wrong but the point he was making is, that there are guns capable of shooting from behind a corner.
-
Which I've never denied. The problem with his argument is that the guns placed into the corner shot are ballistically unchanged. He made a statement that is patently false. Period.
-
Again, you're an idiot. Regardless of the technicalities and what you want to whine about, the Corner Shot is proving my point that gun design and form changes. Is it too crazy to think 700 years more and gun could be [i][u]slightly[/u][/i] different than what we have today? You'd probably be one of those people who thought the Earth was flat and centered in the galaxy.

No. The cornershot is not "changing" guns. It's a gun holder... that is all. You put a standard Glock into it, and you get a standard Glock back. Saying that the corner shot is changing how weapons work is like saying that a tactical light changes how weapons work. Your entire train of thought here is just ridiculous.
