Since not many people like the unlethal guns, here is the opposite extreme. Same visual component, same software, except now there are micro adjustment motors on the barrel that automatically points gun to fatal areas when the gun recognized the humanoid figure.
One shot, one kill.
Now let's
see which one people hate most.
(?) Guns that don't kill

Yay! Online & Java Defender

This game shares the title of "Highest Grossing Video Game of All Time" along with Pac-Man. To date it has earned more than one billion dollars! [thumbwax, Apr 15 2002, last modified Oct 04 2004]

I hate 'em both. This one is slightly more reprehensible, mainly because it is derivative horseshit. |
|
| |
Build the technology into the bullet, it will stay on target and you can't avoid it. A miniature heat seeking missile of sorts. |
|
| |
This will significantly shorten the shoot-out scenes in movies. |
|
| |
We can't do that rbl, otherwise John Woo's excellent "Killer" would be reduced from 2hrs to 20 mins. |
|
| |
true. somebody should invent something to reduce titanic to 20 minutes. including the trailers. |
|
| |
rbl, bris has already done exactly that. (See Lunchtime Movie Shorts.) |
|
| |
What we need are those smart bombs you get in games like Defender that kill all the villains with 100% accuracy but leave the heroes and innocent people. Oh, did someone say WIBNI? |
|
| |
They have those smart guns in movies, the bad guys fire 23million rounds and not one hit, the good guy has one shot at 4 miles with a pellet gun and kills all of them. (re: Titanic, I'm sure the best parts were left on the cutting room floor - the blank frames) |
|

Um, I haven't followed the discussion on the guns that don't kill yet(I'm headed there next), but wouldn't this be kind of a moot point if the person you were aiming at is running. Like [rbl] said, build the tech. into the bullet, not the gun. And aren't bullets sort of shaped like a cylinder with a point on one end, where are the flaps that it would need to direct itself. You would be better off with a smart bomb like [pottedstu] suggests. |

ravenwood: Sounds like Dial-a-Smite (see link). |
|
| |
Oh, I rather like the idea of guns that definitely kill. If the user is not authorised by our society's laws to kill others with impunity then use of this weapon guarantees their death. You pull the trigger and it creates a crater about 8ft across, with the space you once occupied at the centre. |
|
| |
Maybe the gun could fire a soft rubber ball instead of a bullet. |
|
| |
But it would use the a.i. "micro adjustment" to make sure the ball would bounce off of the target and into the nearest hornet's nest. |
|
| |
The technology is already in the bullet. Soon your gun won't go BANG it will go BLAM, as in Barrel Launched Adaptive Munitions. [link] |

Really? Like in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" |

//) Everyone is required to have a computer chip implanet inside their bodies somewhere. This chip sends out a constant signal giving their location, based on detection of GPS signals.//
With this somewhat intrusive technology, who needs a gun? The cops just send a signal to the wanted guy, telling him/her to give themselves up. If they don't, a small bomb explodes rupturing something vital, and the bad guy dies of internal bleeding (less mess) |

RusNash's idea's better... |
