I need to start checking gunbroker. This would be worth a $200 ATF tax stamp.

A strong conviction that something must be done is the parent of many bad measures.

Years ago I got to see one run with a load of dummy rounds on a maintenance rack at Eglin AFB.  Impressive is putting it mildly.  Later got to see shipboard MK-15 CIWS fire up close and personal.  Also impressive even at 20mm vs the 30mm of the GAU-8.

If victorious, we will have everything to hope for in the future. If defeated, nothing will be left for us to live for.”
