Real Life Rail Guns
Although I think this article has been on Digg for awhile now, Fredericksburg reports about an officially developed rail-gun for military ships. If you don’t know what a rail-gun is, the article explains the difference, at least somewhat.
Along the same lines was the recent article at military.com about the DREAD Weapon System. It goes into great detail about the DREAD ‘gun’, although doesn’t have a video. TechEBlog does have a video, though I didn’t watch the whole 4 minutes, nor did I have my sound on, so let me know if it’s no good.
Ah, but those are only for the military. However, here’s something for us consumers. A centrifuge BB Gun. Now that’s almost exciting!

Video was a little cheesy but informative. It never showed any actual video of the weapon in action. It sounds pretty cool, if they have one.
