Best Gun for Outer Space
So apparently the POTUS ordered the creation of the another branch of the military to be created to address all of our pressing national security issue in space.
https://apnews.com/5243dc564676441b9...39;Space-Force' This creates the obvious question as to what we should arm our space marines with. Ideas?

Seems like the obvious choice: Callahan full-bore auto-lock. Customized trigger, double cartridge thorough gauge.

Rail guns and nukes
Any ways, I always thought the navy and the airforce would merge in stead of a new branch So where can I sign up for the space force? |

I would say that whatever gun they use in space should be able to fix potholes in its spare time. Please fix my potholes before spending and money on this.

Just join the Space Force. You will leave the worries of potholes behind on Earth.
