They then butchered the animal, froze the meat and sent it to the customer. Their claim was that most of their customers were from countries that outlawed guns or simply lived where hunting was something one could not do.
I am quite certain this required reserve employees "shooing" a passive, probably drugged animal in front of the rifle's field of fire, which was quite narrow.
Thankfully they were in operation only a short time.

Samsung Sentry Drone? Sony Autonomous Combat Droid? Those things are real, unfortunately, though under different names.
And they all run by Chinese-made chips, like almost all Western hightech weaponry as well.
I wonder if that is clever.
Hm. I am hijacking my own thread again.
