Future weapon corner shot

atctimmy · January 29th, 2008, 09:54 PM

Has anyone else seen this thing on TV? It is really cool. It takes any standard auto pistol and mounts it in a rifle style gun stock that pivots L/R to 45 or 90 degrees or can be pointed straight. A camera under the muzzle allows you to view and engage targets around a corner without exposing any of your body parts. It's cool!!! I want one for my home defense plan

It's been out and in development and play by Israeli's since the late '90s.
It was featured in an issue of IIRC Popular Mechanics during like '99 or '00 when I first saw it.

it would be considered an SBR under the NFA due to barrel length and the abiity to fire from the shoulder. i beleive it may be in production as i've seen them offered for sale to law enforcement but i don't realy know what company manufactures them. i'll check with some of the online NFA sellers later and link to if i can find it.

I saw it on TV, and it is made by an Israeli company. I first saw it on the show Future Weapons about two years ago and I thought it was cool then. Now they have a cat puppet they put over the muzzle and when they hold it around a corner it looks just like a kids toy...until you get shot. It is really cool!! I wish I had a link, but I'm going to look for one so everyone can see what we're talking about.

Very cool but I wonder how accurate the sighting system is?

I bet the recoil feels funny. I think there's something like that in some video game for Xbox...one where you shoot the bad guys. It might not be the best idea for HD - unless all your walls are bulletproof. If you can stick that thing around a corner without it being noticed, you can stick your face around too....still, a neat idea.

It's still exposing your firearm to the BG, if he takes out your primary you best hope you have a BUG for when he comes around that corner at you!!
