The Metal Storm is a beast. With a 16,000 round per second rate of fire, there’s nothing else even close to the same league. That’s over 1 million rounds per minute. This thing makes the M134 – the machine gun with the highest rate of fire in service has a rate of fire of 6,000 rounds per minute – look like a Daisy Red Rider by comparison.
Developed for the military, Metal Storm Inc. began delivering their gun systems to the US Navy in 2007 for use on surface ships. Theoretically, if you could hunt with one of these bad boys, you could single handedly hit the bag limit for the entire U.S. for the next decade within minutes.
If you ever do see one of these monsters up close, be careful, you’ll shoot your eye out, kid.
