Josh Montgomery: World Armory Looks Like Terminator 7
In the past, one would think that nearing 2020, we would
have a lot of flying cars, robots, and other fancy futuristic items. Plus,
every Terminator
fan would watch the movies, thinking how fancy those weapons look – and how
unlikely it is for us to see anything like that in the near future.
Well, it’s 2019, and while we may not have flying cars, we
have the world armory growing more and more every year. While the guns of the
past look so “western” and old-fashioned,
the world armory nowadays looks like someone dived into the Terminator 7 armory
and took the guns out from there.
So, here are some examples of guns that make it look that
the World Armory is preparing for a new Terminator movie.
· The AA12 Atchisson Assault Shotgun
As far as the
Terminator movies go, it is likely that in the 7th installment, the guns will
take a life of their own and start shooting the targets themselves. This is why
a gun such as the AA12 Atchisson assault shotgun is something you would
definitely find in Terminator 7.
This gun can fire
around 300 rounds per minute – which is perfect, especially when you have
enemies surrounding you from every corner. Plus, compared to other shotguns,
this one has reduced recoil – making it perfect when you have to get back on
your feet quick and find your other enemies.
The
Armatix iP1
The Armatix iP1 is one
of the safest futuristic guns – and the one you always want to have around if
you tend to drop your gun in a brawl. Considering that this gun needs a
fingertip enabled watch in close proximity – 25 cm distance, at most – there’s
almost no risk of someone using this gun against you.
So, if you drop your
gun and someone picks it up to shoot you with it, they’ll find out that the gun
cannot be fired. This would certainly save your life in a Terminator situation,
where guns are flying all around the place. It is also compact, so it is the
perfect kind of gun for a surprise.
The
CornerShot
Lt. Col. Amos Golan from the Defense Forces of Israel
created the CornerShot – a gun that would allow you to shoot a target from
around a corner. This gun was initially designed for terrorist
situations where hostages were taken – but considering its futuristic
design, it is difficult to imagine how this gun would not play a good role in
Terminator 7.
The XM23
CDTE
When you are in a Terminator situation, you may have a bunch
of enemies coming at you with a thirst for blood – and you will have to get rid
of all of them at once. So why not use a grenade (or a couple of them) to get
that done? This is why it is not unimaginable to think that this gun would have
a special place in the Terminator 7 armory as well.
The CDTE is practically a gun-looking grenade launcher that
would send grenades through the air like footballs. Plus, since the gun can be
tracked and detonated at any second, it makes the weapon perfect for a life or
death situation. Considering that the gun has also received the nickname The Punisher, it’s actually a perfect
fit for Terminator 7.
The PHASR
Rifle
There’s something futuristic and sci-fi-like about this gun.
It is not exactly a bullet-based gun – and in truth, it’s not even lethal. But
it can sure be convenient when you have a bunch of angry creatures coming at
you – and you have nowhere to run.
So what
does the PHASR rifle do? Well, it’s a non-lethal weapon, so it obviously
doesn’t kill – but it can stun your enemy. The laser that it has been equipped
with can temporarily blind the target, making them disoriented and allowing you
to make a run for it. The weapon is still being worked on – but by the time
Terminator 7 comes around the corner, so will this gun.
The FN
P90 Compact Rifle
This compact assault rifle is shaped like nothing you’ve
probably seen before, being a gun you’d most likely see in a video game – or a Terminator movie, for
instance. Only that unlike those guns from video games, this one is as real as
it could possibly be.
What makes this weapon outstanding is the fact that it has
an incredible fire rate – one that can get rid of a lot of your enemies in a
very short time. It’s a perfect fit for the Terminator 7 world – and it’s
amazing to know that such a weapon actually exists in the world armory.
The FN
Five-Seven Pistol
When your life is on the line, you can’t always carry large
shotguns with you wherever you go. Sometimes, you may just need a small, yet
powerful gun that you can take out at short notice.
This gun is so deadly that a civilian can only buy it with
sporting ammunition; imagine what it could do with actual ammunition. It can
practically penetrate any kind of armor, giving it a Terminator 7 vibe that can
kill every target.
Plus, it is extremely lightweight despite having a large
capacity. This way, even if you have to carry the gun around for many hours,
you should not be inconvenienced by it.
Full
Conceal M3G43
When you are going full Terminator, compact weapons are your
best friends – and this super compact concealed carry gun is exactly what would
fit the Terminator 7 movie set. Whenever you would be attacked, you would have to take out the gun, unfold it – and
start shooting. It can carry around 12 bullets, making it perfect for surprise
situations.
Final Thoughts
We may not have flying cars – but we have guns that look
sci-fi enough to be thrown into the Terminator 7 movie. The world armory today
is so advanced that we are not even surprised by laser-shooting guns anymore.
They seem natural. Deadly, but natural.
