Man Test

Gatling. With tracers of course.

Do you want to know if you are a man? It simple -- you are a man if you didn't question the need for EITHER of these things on your car. For the record, I think I'd go with the gatling gun.

I completely disagree. A man does not need or want to destroy everything that bothers him. Quite the opposite. A man deals with the cards dealt to him, with respect, with regards to himself and his surroundings.

Babies throw tantrums and break stuff when it doesn't go their way.

Now if you had only asked which would you own, I'd pick the gatling gun. Actually a M134 because my AR is chambered for .308 already.

The whole 'mount on the DD' makes it sound like you can't cope with the stress of driving to work or something. Man up and deal with it.

Getting way too serious in here....

Sorry.

Mrs. Oldtin sez, machine guns are for girls. Club or bare hands for a man's man.

I'd love to have a gatling gun mounted on the ol' P71. That would be super sweet. Road borne idiots would be at an all time low!

Um, I'd do this.

The Confederate Air Force is gonna be even more awesome if the .gov lets them buy some of these things when they're retired.

I feel very comfortable and secure in my manlines, and don't need or want a weapon fixed to my car. That being said; Gatlin gun all day.

Now if it ever became socially acceptable to act out on violent road rage related impulses I would prefer a full contact method, using something like a hybrid combination of Herkimer Battle Jitney and Dakar rally truck.

Loves me some rally truck

See, I misread this. I want a Tommy Gun in a violin case the back seat of my car.

If you post a pic of GAU-8, it needs to be this:

Stop being such a Bob Costas and answer the damn question.......otherwise you'll have Arnold calling you a "Gurly Man"

I would say a simple man test is if you can put a spare on your car and actually would. I see too many pretty boys that can't change a tire. Sad.

For the record, I have shot the M2 and the MK19. Tough to chose between the two. The energy you can feel coming from the M2 or the devastation you are putting down range with the MK19.

Hellfire missiles weigh about 110 pounds each. Realistically three of them would over burden my underpowered Miata.

Gatling gun was my first choice anyway..

I think you are misreading the intent. With great power comes great responsibility. WANTING a Gatling gun on my car doesn't necessarily equate to WANTING to obliterate everything in my path. If you own an AR, I am sure you are familiar with how that argument has been used against your right to own it.

I have a high HP car for the street. It doesn't mean that I want to use that power in my DD activities. But it is there . . .

XKCD said: If I mounted a GAU-8 on my car, put the car in neutral, and started firing backward from a standstill, I would be breaking the interstate speed limit in less than three seconds.

Can I haz one of these slung under my jacked-up Raptor?

What? I totally want to use all the power of my sportscar in my DD activities. I just refrain from using all the power.

I've always thought about Photon Torpedoes, a la Star Trek would be awesome.

I would definitely want to OBLITERATE everything in my path, my actual use may be a little more subjective...... or not.

You figure out if my wife said "No." last night.
