Prop planes to Jet planes...

I always use the analogy of Airplanes to question what will be next.

Airplanes started off as gas engine, propeller driven machines. The technology was leap frogged by the jet engine planes (in the 1940s)

So what will leap frog " modern guns" ???
Guns are a mature technology, the only real change since WW2 was the introduction of plastics.

Your best bet for guessing is to look to science fiction novels/movies - Honest!!

My guess would be a laser gun with a portable energy source.
Range ??? Have to be better than 1000 YDS

Seeing how guns have not changed in 60 years, I"m sure that the
change is coming soon. <20 years
