EMT Paintball Sentry Turret renders your personal militia useless

Just came across this story on a few sites today and thought it would be fun to play with.

Hmmm, that's cool, but I'm not sure how effective it would be in a game. Probably sort of like the M134 miniguns used in Airsoft. They are cool as anything, but rarely used since they are too cumbersome to move quickly and basically are a very expensive prop for certain games.

looks cool, but I agree with Elwenil. Besides, airsoft is my cup o' tea and I would like to encourage people who play paintball to check out airsoft if they already havn't.

Id bet that would be useful for defense scenario games, put it up either near the entrence location or in a turret and have the operator near the flag just incase any enemy make it into the base area unseen,

Re: EMT Paintball Sentry Turret renders your personal militia useless

Here's where it'd be real fun. Leave 4 of them obscurely secured and powered, with a good view of each side of your home (this would only work if you live in the country). If you ever suspect a trespasser (i.e. robber), use the cameras, aim, and fire. Could be a pacifistic yet fun way to ward a would-be burglar!

I'll have this to go along with my alligator filled moat when I become a hermit someday...

You know, as soon as an URL to Think Geek comes up, it's a good conversation.
