I don't normally post articles like this about weapons, but this is quite an evolution in small arms technology.

The unique weapon allows a soldier to remain behind cover, with only the barrel of the rifle exposed in the direction of the hostile fire.

lool...hmmm...interesting
 
I have a feeling this will be one of those "Nasa spends millions on pen that writes in zero gravity, Russians use a pencil" stories.

US spends billions on gun that shoots around obstacles. Russians use grenades.
 
You mean russians use hand gun and mirror?
