I can think of lots of uses for this:
- Bring to court and bop MPAA lawyers with legos. Won't do much harm but if you get em in the right place they'll look like they have acne.
- Give to Richard Stallman so he can enforce the GPL. "Stop or I'll Lego". Poetic geek justice.
- Equip all the Jon Katz flamers with one and set up a shooting range. Maybe they'll get it out of their system.
- Build a scale model of the MPAA building out of balsa wood and shoot it down with a hundred lego guns at point-blank range. Fun for the whole family!
- Build a statue of Natalie Portman naked. Maybe then the trolls would finally shut up. You may use the recent Sun photos as a template.

From what I can tell, all this seems to be is an electronic firing system (think of a multi-barreled gun, with a bullet in each barrel, and each bullet wired to fire - hence no moving parts, high rate of fire - but not many bullets to fire).
Personally, I think a machine gun would be better, as these devices seem to make you reload after only a few shots (4-6 in the handgun case, maybe 50 or so in the larger versions). In the case of a handgun, it might make a little sense - but for anything where you want to "hose" something for a little while, well...

Essentially what I said previously, except multiple bullets in the barrel, each seperated by a charge. The charges are electronically controlled (set off), the heat of the explosion expands the bullet behind it, keeping the heat from igniting the charges behind the next bullet. Rate of fire determined by barrel cooling, and rate at which bullets leave barrel.

The basic idea was that if you'd shout "Beer Me!", the device would recognize your call, turn to face you, estimate distance, and launch a beer at you (which you'd naturally grab out of the air).
We had a couple problems that made us give up development:
- our targetting was poor. The device was able to direction-find pretty accurately, but the rangefinding wasn't very good -- it would frequently target the wall six feet behind you, or the like.
- the launching mechanism required a fair bit of power, that made the device relatively unfeasible for normal home use. For example, we had to attach two cylinders of compressed air, and that didn't last long.
- in order to get a clean launch, each can had to be placed in a "non-discarding sabot" -- a jacket that fit over each beer and provided a better fit against the launch mechanism. We only had one such jacket, 'cause it was a pain to make. Cans aren't terribly ballistic, as-is.
- since we used compressed air, and we weren't really good at metering it, our launches were of irregular force. It was nearly impossible to get the can flying at exactly the right speed.
In retrospect, we perhaps shouldn't have given up so easily, but when you've had a few too many cans shot at your head, you start to get spooked easily. Plus the cans were able to dent sheetrock, and therefore messed up our walls pretty badly.Anyone want to take up the effort? It'd be a cool party trick, but don't blame me if you kill someone.

Little Private Burrito (an unfortunate name) went to preschool one day, with great expectations of play time, only to be struck repeatedly with high-speed Legos from his (former) friend Humis' Lego gun. Several other children were bloodied, and almost 90% of the class wet their pants during this event. We cannot continue to allow such things in the hands of babes...
But in the hands of adults, Legos are even more dangerous. Jaques Strappe recently hijacked an airliner, with over 75 people on board, using a modified rapid-fire semi-automatic Lego Gun. Though no passengers were hurt, several first class travelers were apparently shouting such things as "Golly!" and "Lordy, Lordy!". After he was apprehended, Strappe claimed to have found the plans for his weapon on the Internet.
