True, but try replacing a tank barrel in the middle of a battle. Or making an auto-replacement system for a tank.

I do think it is a good idea, but it's not an automatic - Pun not actually intended this time, but sure - replacement for traditional guns.

As a gun owner I think that the accuracy of this system must really stink. The first projectile has no barrel length to go thru, and when you get enough barrel to impart a spin to the bullet you have already fouled it. Just a thought.
