Burglary In Progress

ForgedReality says...

You are assuming it's a high velocity rifle. It's likely only 9mm, meaning minimal impact and penetration.

A .40 cal pistol with hollow point rounds can do exactly what you describe as well. Just because it's a "rifle" doesn't make it any more deadly or dangerous.

There's a very big difference between a pistol round and a high velocity rifle round. The rifle could easily penetrate a several typical suburban houses and still kill someone down the block in another house. A pistol (or shotgun or sub machine gun) isn't nearly as likely to do that and is just as effective for killing folks that need killing at close range.

I assume the officer is trained on it and knows that, but if folks start shooting, things tend to go wrong.

Literally no different from a pistol other than it can have better accuracy and sometimes higher caliber. It's also more menacing looking so can often lead to more effective deescalation of critical situations. Can you tell me why you believe it's "not a great idea" when the criminals already all have guns too?

AeroMechanical said:

I can't say I approve of the police using a rifle in a house in the suburbs. That's not a great idea.

And you'd have shitty cell reception, so good luck posting about it on social networks.

Yeah, plus you have to wait for the drop...

No, it's not EDM. It's machined. We produce a variety of cylinder / piston pairs, some with keyed anti rotation or beveled flanges to prevent pull through. The achievement of a visually seamless interface between two parts is certainly not trivial, but with care and the proper sequence of machining steps (guess which face you mill last? right - the one the user sees as seamless) you can do this on good quality CNC's with the right cutters. EDM'ing the complex curved shapes that truly mate across the surface on the early parts shown in the video is very (prohibitively) difficult, as you have to rely on ram EDM which is plain nasty.

Outskirts of Night City in Cyberpunk 2077. "Was bringing her here the right choice?" Ciri from The Witcher 3 visited the Cyberpunk world for more than a year. She had to save humanity. Again.

So hyped for Cyberpunk.

ISIS survives on similar principles. They even have his support. He claims they have been "defeated" so the American people will be okay with leaving them alone. Is he an ISIS plant in addition to a Russian spy? I'm only kind of half-joking about that...
