Pretty cool looking, but at a $1000 I think I'll wait for my range time...Around here though I wonder what the neighbors would do if they saw you darting around your backyard with a gun in hand....either ask if they could play too or call the cops...hmmm.

That looks like too much fun. If I had the money and the free time I would definitely try it.

I also noticed they used a .22. I wonder what would happen if they used a .50AE Desert Eagle, or a .500 Magnum or hell, even AR15. :ar15: (with full automatic.) I wonder if it would be considered cheating. :whistle:

Simple web camera and laser setup. Software to detect that isn't hard either. It looks like a simple 2D "bitmap like" overlay. All in all, very simple. Would be neat to combine the two systems. 3D game mods with the laser setup.
