Ive read about all kinds of ammunations like hollow tips, incindiary (explosive slugs) and tracers (with phophospores tips that ignite with air friction) just to name a few. What do you think the future of ammunition will have in store for s*******.

Well, I'm hoping some one who is able to, will take his head out of his ass long enough to realize that the word S.H.O.O.T.E.R is acceptable and will fix the problem already.Removing a single turd from the cesspool doesn't make any difference.

Originally posted by sniperdude411We will probably see frangibles sometime in around 10 years; we already have tracers, but for foot soldiers, we don't need explosive bullets (imagine the cost).
There was a drive (at least by HK) to develop truly caseless ammo in the 70s and 80s, but I don't think they continued the program after the Sovs went belly-up.

The G11 with its caseless ammo were adopted by Germany for a short time. After the downfall of the combloc Germany didn't see the nessecary for such a expensive weapon/ammo because of the lack of the threat that the cold war could turn into a hot one. So they droped it.

Originally posted by leibstandarte10That's probably because they really haven't done much development on it. I'm sure that they can find cheaper and more efficient ways to manufacture the rounds.

Originally posted by Mt1The power of the laser could be adjustable. Using lower power for a human to save energy and higher power for maybe even a tank if needed. A disadvantage could be that a laser could be easily deflected with a mirror.
though flamethrowers would be very effective (melting the plastic and if glass cooking people like a roast chicken in tin foil)
