Future weapons for cops
Posted on Jan 23, 07 06:51 PM PDT
Being a cop has never been more attractive, despite the current perks of donut and coffee discounts around the precinct. Popular Science have outdone themselves by thinking up a list of essential tools that all cops should arm themselves with in order to maintain law and order throughout the country effectively. The machine gun featured above stands out from the entire bunch, boasting the ability to shoot up to 700 rounds of pepper-spray pellets in a single minute, creating eye-stinging clouds up to 200 feet away almost instantly. This is definitely more fun than a water cannon when it comes to crowd control, and you get to make people cry literally. Are any weapons and arms manufacturers reading this? Make sure you include a donut holster into the final product.

the idea is cool, but thats just a Tippmann A-5 paintball gun outfitted to shoot balls filled with peperspray instead of paint. Nothing too genius of the device itself. I have the same exact gun I do paintablling with every week.

Future weapons my foot... That is a Tippmann A-5 paintball gun with no special modifications, just a front air-feed system and different ammunition... Good idea though, even though I hate police officers even more than George W. Bush.

Yep, Tippmann A5, and the stock barrel no less. Whats funny, is that If any cop that plays paintball and is knowledgeable enough about it and knows they will actually NEED one of these in advance, they will just go get a speedball marker, and increse shooting capacity to exess of 30bps at 1600 rounds per tank.

it looks funny for a cop to carry but it seems to be handy and it might be the best toy for the instance of chaotic crowd.

The fact that we are protecting those that protect us on a daily basis is, no matter what the cost, is the best thing we can do to make our communities safer.

It's ugly, but it might just work.
