Can you do this with your weapon?

This is from military.com; so, if you're not into weaponry and what it can do, do not view.

Not till I can figure out how to make my Spyder fly and mount the 20mm on it. Great video though.:2thumbs::2thumbs::2thumbs:

Are you speaking from experience? It's not like they were using sniper rifles.

It's not like they were using sniper rifles.
But they were still spraying. The Apache sighting system is better than what was demonstrated. Too bad they didn't use a HellFire...

it did seem like the sites were off based on the aim point. i wonder at what height they were. if the camera is zoomed...

that had to be some serious sized ammo... over 50 CAL.

Here is the ammo, its 20mm and wicked. Imagine it in a 7+ ft gun on a bipod. Its a lot of fun

now that is funny... could not even think about firing something like that if it was real ...

on the other hand (pun intended)
firinga 50 cal is not bad with the compensator they have on them. its loud as @#$@$ and the air pressure if you stand next to it is impressive but they are fun.

I have a 50 cal but selling. at $4.50 every pull of the trigger just a bit too spendy for the fun factor. its a single bolt action Armalite... have to fund the Spyder RT upgrades somehow ...

wonder how much each round of 20mm runs :shocked:

Training ammo is 10.00 per round and tracer is 15.00 per round:yikes::yikes::yikes:

For that price I think that I'm happier investing my milk money in .50s...
