I hope that all youse guys thinking of skeet also remember gravity. The shot that rises to take out the drone eventually falls and lands with much of the energy it had leaving your barrel.

I suspect this will be a future news story, how some poor guy (gal, kid) was hit (seriously injured, killed) by falling projectiles sent into the sky by some idiot pissed off at a drone.

This is, after all, a country with a gun in every face.

I was just wondering how they taste and if my dog will retrieve it after it's dead. I hope one comes over my house cause inquiring minds want to know.

Re: the Russian quad copter machine gun.

How cool is that? We have indeed reached the point where the world and the human are completely incompatible.

I've heard this thing hovering above the neighbourhood a few times now and caught the bugger a few streets away high up earlier today. I know its a drone... and a pretty sophisticated one too by the expanded view (and check out the camera!). I just wonder what it is up to. A Jihadi drone? Or am I being paranoid?

Don't shoot it. It might be an Amazon drone trying to deliver your next new camera.

If you look closely I think that the dummies were blown up by something inside them as they seemed to explode as did the car... Think it could have been a fake...

Quite likely- it would take a strong gyro to dampen the recoil from a submachine gun of 9mm or heavier. A Russian take off on what was broadcast on Hawaii Five 0 at the end of last year's season?
