International military officials say the new infantry guns could open up a revolution in infantry.

While the MK19 is the fastest-firing infantry weapon in the United States, it is capable of firing up to 60 rounds per minute, which is 4,000 times faster.

Engineers at Metal Storm say that the firepower of this new type of gun is capable of making a bullet wall that intercepts enemy fire at 50 m
