Well he already is pretty well established as a manufacturer of BBMGs. I think his main staple is the Gatling guns (which are already patented), but he's mentioned that law enforcement and prisons are interested in metal Strafers for riot control. If that takes off then he will be rolling in money considering that he would sell them for over $600 apiece.
$600? man you serious I think, i have never built a strafer, that a homemade one will cost you about 25-50 dollars. Am i correct? But 600 man thats alot, even if the gun is metal, which it probably is. Thats alot of profit.

The high price is even less justified now that we know how childishly simple the internals are, and it wasn't even an original idea, but props to piper for living the american dreamLikimysCrotchus5 wrote:$600? man you serious I think, i have never built a strafer, that a homemade one will cost you about 25-50 dollars.

And props to him for making the dough. Law enforcement is expensive, as departments tend to spend high dollar for something very simple.

I guess I am just idiotic...
But, can someone please write a description about how this gun works, that someone as stupid as me could understand?
Because, i may make one myself...

It doesn't work any better or worse than an ordinary strafer, don't lose too much sleep over it.
