Yeah, I was thinking the correct answer was to turn off the camera, get out of the car, and beat the bastard to death.
Too bad they don't make the punishment for pulling such sh*t the three times as much as would be dealt out to the driver if the puke had gotten away with it.
[rocketride] No, that's a gyrojet. The rounds are little solid-fuel rockets having a pair of tilted nozzles. This to impart spin as well as forward motion.
A Dardick was odd but not actually quite so unconventional. The cylinder had a notch in the shape of a 'trochoid' (Basically if you took a compass and using each vertex as a center point, drew an arc connecting the other two-- also the shape of a Wankel engine rotor.) Which would strip a round out of the magazine at the bottom of its rotation and fire it at the top. The rounds were basically bullets of that cross-section with a length (same cross-section) of plastic-y propellant molded onto the rear and a primer wedged in a hole at the rear. Basically a caseless round. Problems with the propellant and wear (and eventual failure of the 'topstrap' which formed the 3rd side of the trochoidal chamber are what prevented it from getting much past the prototype stage.
Oops. Posted before finishing my screed. Both were conceived (among other reasons) as ways of avoiding having to eject shell-casings. IIRC, the Gyrojet was also envisioned for use in space when they weren't sure ordinary firearms would work right.
#10 ... that bride made me a tad nauseous as well.

ReplyDelete#5 - When the shoe comes off, the pain begins ...
ReplyDelete#8: hold mah beer!
ReplyDelete#1 the old Gyrojet pistol shooting rocket rounds. Cool!
ReplyDeleteMade by Dardik (sp?) The rocket rounds were called "trounds." They were triangular in cross section. Never saw one fired irl.
