Talk about road rage! A remote controlled 50 caliber!
The 50 caliber was kind of fun to shoot, but I am glad I didn't get more experience with it. I was very impressed by the size of the shell.
The article said the recoil knocked them right off the truck. Ouch! ![]()
Here ya go, the Serbu BFG-50. I want one.

Well both, but if it was one or the other I'd pass on the T-shirt and get the Serbu with the "Have a Nice Day" engraving on the muzzle face.
Neat T-sshirt though, so I'll probably get that first.

If you click on "Next" at the top of the Photo Clay "A Columbian performs" you have the perfect driver for it.

I wonder what kinda mileage it gets.

The only good thing is they almost HAVE TO park at the end of any parking lot. The bad is they always take up 2 parking spaces front to back.
The geniuses don't know how to drive the things. Don't get me started. (snarl, mumble)
even be on the road (i.e goes over the pavements (pedestrian walkways)). Given that we have rather narrower roads in London than you probably do in America, I would be quite happy to have a turret-mounted gun on top of my small "run-about" car, for those occasions when they don't even indicate at roundabouts etc.
I tend to keep my road rage inside the car, but did make the mistake once in mid-summer when my window was wound down fully...Ooops! Maybe they took the hint, or not, judging from present activity.
The thing about the American toy is that similar ("tank-type") vehicles have been around in various forms for quelling urban riots etc for quite a while. Just makes me glad that I've got enough in the store cupboard that I never need to go out ever again.
