Camera Gun Would Let Hunters Get Killer Wildlife Shots
Zothecula writes "Not too long ago, brothers Randy and Michael Gregg were out on a hunting expedition. It was the day after deer season had ended, yet they spied a handsome animal bedded down in the snow. Not wanting to pass up an opportunity, they silently crept up on their quarry, raised their rifle, lined the deer up in the crosshairs ... and then took a picture through the scope with a mobile phone. That photo provided all the proof they needed that they had successfully stalked their prey, without bringing home an illegally-obtained carcass. It also inspired them to create the Kill Shot — a replica hunting rifle, that takes pictures instead of firing bullets." The Kill Shot isn't just for hunters. Think of how great this would be at sporting events or family reunions!
I think a replica rifle is liable to cause some consternation at your average sporting event.
Microsoft leads to Bluescreen; Bluescreen leads to downtime; downtime leads to suffering.
Police will be called out to those events because "there's someone with a gun!" Family reunion becomes a family bloodbath.
I like you, Stuart. You're not like everyone else, here, at Slashdot.
From multiple angles too...
Seriously even I think this is tasteless and only going to get more so before we are done.
Didn't even read the summary?
Sounds more like evidence that the US needs to sit down, shut up, and take a chill pill. Just mellow out.
