This is pathetic

[lightweight]

Weapons systems maker has created a turret that can be mounted on the roof of a regular vehicle and operated by the vehicle's occupants or from a remote location. For a demonstration, the firm fitted a turret with two 12 gage shotguns to the roof of an SUV. Such a system could be used to breach a door or gate, expose a hidden device, destroy a roadside bomb, and more. After the jump is a video of the system. Watch closely and see how the operator makes minor adjustments to accurately hit different targets…

I think it's pathetic because it's on an SUV. It is very awesome though.

I second the patheticness. Guns are crap.

It seems to be a similar system that the M1 abrams tank has with it's .50cal gun.

What is wrong with guns? They can be useful in many ways, the only way they are bad is when they are used to kill humans.

Aside from hunting, that's pretty much their main or only purpose.

Guns don't kill people - rappers do.

Good idea for shooting roadside bombs...if you can see them...

It would come in handy with a rocket launcher when you drive by a speed camera...
