Civilian Riot control gun?

Yeah, that's a great idea, Rambo.

"Crowd Control" via randomly mowing people down with a gatling gun isn't a viable tactic, nor is it part of any relevant training program. But it is the sort of silly BS that helps embarrass this community. :barf:
 
Oh Boy... Another Doug.38PR thread... :rolleyes: :barf:

Lets drive around and mow down rioters. That makes great legal sense. In a riot, leave town if you are able to do so safely and fortify the house if not. If people go through your door, then you can blast them.

Can't you enjoy a gun just for the sake of it or are you really so hell bent on shooting someone?

Besides, your little .22 is useless compared to this gun from Metal Storm.
 
A better place for it would be mounted on it's own turret 15 feet away from your front door. That way, as these so called rioters made their way in your front door, you would be able to mow them down with thousands of mosquito bites... :D

There, now instead of being a reckless truck mounted murder machine, it is a viable home defense weapon for SHTF... ;)
 
It really IS getting sort of tiresome Dougey...... Shouldnt threads like this be confined to a video game board?

:barf:

Any situation justifying mowing downs rows of anyone also justifies buring your house down instead, to deprive them of the comforts and relief afforded by a house and stocked refrigerator. I'd also salt the lawn on my way out if I were you.

Your idea is more than impractical, it's so far from the range of rational and generally acceptable thinking that it would, in my mind, call into question your intent, where you ever involved in a shooting.

I'm currious whether you would actually consider buying such a thing for your stated purpose. I mean if you had an extra 500 bucks, and you saw one at the gun show, would you buy it, so that you had it just in case there was a riot?
 
The problem with riots is that the good and the bad get mixed together. Up this way, when the Red Sox finally won a world series, police used rubber bullets to disperse an unruly crowd. One struck a college girl in the eye, killing her (please don't anyone say she should have known not to be there). Fenway Park is a crowded h*llhole on any game night. The innocents had nowhere to go but through the mayhem. Bullets don't think, and neither did the CC officers in my opinion.
Now if civil unrest broke out, and a "rape gang" was coming down my street kicking in doors, well....away we go, but if I even had that in my mind, I'd keep it to myself. Only my wife would know it existed. BTW, not too hard to figure out the mechanics of it.
 
Doug, The best way to eliminate a bunch of riot threats is to hit them with a single round. This will persuade the others to leave you alone and no inncocents die. If they all bum rush your position 50 rounds of 22lr flying all over the place is not even close in effectivness to controlled rapid fire from an AR-15.

Really you are in la la land with this thread. The purpose for full auto fire is to saturate and area and keep heads down so that you may move troops to flank. It is very wasteful of ammo (hit ratio is low).

For me the most effective riot weapon is my AR-15. My accurized rifle can make easy hits on 10 inch steel from 100 to 300 yards almost as fast as I can pull the trigger. My other AR can mow down bowling pins with insane (pardon the pun) speed. I know its not cool looking but I don't worry about looks just effectivness.

Vehicle mounts???????why just shoot offhand. This will allow you to stay lower and enjoy more mobility.

Think about what you are saying and you will see how silly it is. Use the tactics you have learned and apply them to this scenario. No need for gimicks.
 
Anyway, the rest of you, if the gun was bolted to a car or house it would be helpful against a mob of rioters hellbent on beating people and looting houses.

PLEASE do not continue to feed the troll !

sounds like someone is off their Lithium again, Moderators Please.....
 
Okay since everyone is so bent out of shape over this I will delete this thread myself. Didn't want this to turn into a flame throwing thread
 
Doug may be in la la land with his scenarios but he isn't a troll. Please save the big word for the real thing.

What if Doug really believes that the gun shown is appropriate?
What if he thinks a riot is comming in his area?

I have a riot preparation plan myself. Not far fetched since I've been alive for at least 2 local riots, one here in Tampa and one in St. Pete. The Tampa riot was less than one block from my grandfathers printing business and I was prepared to eliminate anyone who threatened us. It made me think outside the box. It made me prepare for anything. You guys can laugh but really it would be like someone laughing at you for being prepared for a gunfight that will probably never happen. I have family that think I'm nuts for carrying a CW. Dougs scenario was crazy but if he wants real riot weapons and tactics info we should help him...........if it has happened here it can happen anywhere.
 
Oooo a riot, like Kent State? I remember that one.

For riots I unload my spud gun :) knocks em down right away and you can use the frags for making fries :) a win win IMHO :)

What you afeard of doug? Riots? I say you need a job that uses your brain up a bit more :)
