Thread: What will the hunting rifles of the future look like ?

I ask this question because in the news at present we have both 'Havana Syndrome' and a disabled Austrailian warship, with magnetic pulse weapons suspected as the cause. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/world/460...an-aid-mission.
Is it possible that in the future there will be some sort of pulse or stun rifle that works a bit like a Taser but without the wires - a directed energy Tesla rifle ? The US military is working on this type of concept with laser rifles
Stun the Stag, measure the antlers take the photos and let him recover. Or maybe even cut the antlers off and leave the stag to grow a new set next year ?
