Maybe a multilayered round could be produced that first sterilizes the area to be shot with chemical, then the bullet strikes, then the wadding, then surgical staples, then some ointment, all occuring within a fraction of a second. I think high speed video of this would be interesting. A portable printer mounted to the weapon prints a get well soon card. |
