Hey guys, whatever happened to the raging ammo debate we had going. I assume
Quiktek and others are huddling in their bunkers preparing new toys with which
we can decimate the enemy.

While working on my GURPS Cyberpunk game, I realized there is a weapon type we
haven't discussed yet-at least, since I've been on. Gyrocs-Guns that fire
rocket-propelled bullets instead of normal bullets. They are 3/4 inch in calibre
and a variety of warheads can be put on them. I don't have time to post rough
stats but I'll try to do so in by tomorrow. It's 1960's technology, so it's
feasible, though I would like someone to tell me why they haven't caught on so I
can make them unusual in my game for a valid reason.

Concept (from a friend): Monofilament Net. Fired from Net Gun=Instant People
Fries. Problems? Please comment.
