      I wonder how long it will be before China reverse engineers this and sells the stolen technology to our enemies. The battlefield is going to be vastly more dangerous when every terrorist with an AK 74 has this.
      Removing a single turd from the cesspool doesn't make any difference.

        All it seems to do is range, and then access stored data on bullet drop. How does the system account for wind, relative humidity, temperature, slope? Maybe I'm missing something, but my guess would be that it's not as effective as claimed.

          The ~$12k Zeiss Hensoldt 6-24x 72mm SAM riflescope system includes much of that. You dial in crosswind component vector and range to target, and the scope feeds-back information instructing you on relative changes to turret settings and also on holdover when settings exceed the adjustment range of the turrets. It does not self-adjust the turrets, and does not manipulate or interrupt the trigger. See the video below from 2011 SHOTShow in the latter segment beginning after 1:51.

              If you are emotionally invested in 'believing' something is true you have lost the ability to tell if it is true.

                At least he is taking himself out of the gene pool.

                Don't you guys down under has healthcare? I mean there must be better ways of turning that outee to an inee. Besides, if he does not straighten his aim first, when he goes into the mens room he is going to have to face the next urinal so he can pee in the one beside him. AWKWARD! I know I don't like someone else facing me when I have Jr out watering the porcelain, and I sure as hell don't like some other guy watering the porcelain while he is facing me.

                  Sorry to disappoint but this guy is a prime example of good old American manhood (at least temporarily). As the song says "Born in the USA!" Besides if an Aussie wanted to shoot his dick off he would need at least a .44 cal.
