Wouldn't that constitute a good use for the gun?

I'd walk the streets of Baghdad with that thing.

At 80-100 pounds just for the rifle and half a pound for each round I don't know how far anyone will be walking with that thing.

We took a 23mm gun from some Bosnians one time and I had to haul it from the Hummer to the TOC which wasn't far. That was bad enough. I'd rather be able to carry more ammo than a big gun.

Even better idea, get one of those lumber carts from Home Depot mount ttwo of em on it with a couple hundred rounds of ammo underneith, add a standing patfourm behind it with turret mounts. Yes its all coming together :biggrinjester: now all I need is the $20,000 or so it would take. "rlol"

In the bed of the pickup with a dark tinted camper shell to conceal it and a remote controlled lid. In the cab, a red button marked "for emergency use only". Great for ensuring you won't be tailgated and the added boost could cut my commute time to work in half. I always wanted a bat-truck :biggrinjester:
