leichenschrei replied to your link: Apparently competition shooting in the Olympics now uses laser guns
would be sweet if they used blasters like from Star Wars. pew pew.not that a .22 has a lot of recoil or anything but still…. there are just some aspects of a ballistic firearms you cannot replicate with a fucking arcade laser pistol
If they use CO2 canisters to replicate recoil then I don’t have a huge issue with it. The army uses setups like that to do virtual reality type training. It’s a little disappointing that the sport has become so dissociated from its origins, but lots of sports have.
