Needs to be belt fed.

They should make it a revolver and add small charge in the back to increase that laughable muzzle velocity.

or better yet combine it with Dardick

a weapon to surpass metal gear
>>30440121
Cool future shit. Wish someone would be willing to make a reproduction.

Said charge should be a .410 shell and said revolver could then be a Taurus Judge or S&W Governor

Sure, but what about ammo?
>>30440121
A great idea marred by shit quality control. If someone were to try it today, it would be awesome, especially for conflicts in microgravity environments.

They were dogshit.
I mean, they were fascinating, but still dogshit.

Ammo was pretty expensive even for it's time.
>>30442800
It's not just that ammo was expensive and spotty in quality, the Gyrojet guns just were NOT good weapons.

that would be pretty pointless. You'd get ballistics barely better than .44 magnum if you're lucky, shit accuracy, and still the same level of noise and recoil as a conventional firearm
>>30445545
the round is already pointless, this makes it hilarious

still I can't help but think the concept itself has potential even if the gyrojets were undeniably impractical. Obviously we couldn't mass-produce mini-rockets cheaply anytime soon and there's the issue of muzzle-velocity, accuracy and feeding system, but it's the no recoil and no hearing protection required that makes it somewhat awesome, and who knows in the distant future this could redefine small-arms if not coil guns
Does anyone know what happened to that anon who got that massive collection of guns when his granddad died? He had a gyrojet if I recall correctly.
>>30448335
I don't know of anyone has heard from him since the third thread.
>>30448335
He won the case, i think he still lurks a little
I remember when /k/ found the 7th (or maybe the fourth?) Gyrojet ever made on craigslist in California
>>30445144
How do you load this?
just put bullets in the ejector and rotate cylinder counterclockwise?
>>30446721
That looks exactly like a mac 11 with some plywood and shelving hardware stuck to it.
