I got bored today after I had had my pizza during a pizza party and after wanting to throw my DV6000 onto Interstate 75 because it realllllly hates L4D2. So in my boredom i modeled a Coil gun, it looks a bit steampunk-ish.
I kinda like the whole 'segmented' parts, which are the magnets used to hurtle the 10mm round fast enough to puncture a building super structure and vital support beams without causing any unwanted after affects and still disable the soldier, light vehicle, or heavy vehicle on the other side. If you want over penetration and to cause the air to be filled with gibs instantaniously then the Coil gun can do that very well.
Slightly, in the fact it fires a BB of a certain size and is a gauss/Coil gun to
igotnuthin 's Model of a similiar function Though the bbs used in the Coil gun i've yet to name likely aren't uranium bbs i believe them to still be leathal enough to do what its designed for and still over penetrate and kill who ever is on the otherwise.
The Coil gun fires 1 round per trigger pull. So it only fires as fast as your trigger finger and tug, release, then tug again. The tube on the bottom acts as a magazine and holds about 150+ 10mm bbs. Larger tubes can be used to increase the rounds at ones disposal. Also the two tubes on each side of the stock help build up the charge to the magnets, which are each traingular shaped section, the resulting charge hurtles the 10mm bb at light speed into its target. The Coil gun can be mounted as a door gun for most troop transports but often finds itself as a carried weapon by troops requiring a heavy weapon to deal with fortified positions or just to be sure they've completely nuetralized the enemy.
Can't think of anything else to point out.
Modeled in Google Sketchup 7. Took about 3 hours over all.
Enjoy~

It would be more akin to a simple click, then a loud bang. from the targets point of view, you just die. you hear nothing, see nothing and feel nothing. It is a truly horrifying weapon, no charge sound, no gunshot (from your point of view) no place is safe from it, you cannot stay out of range as it outranges you, even with a sniper in your hands. If one was so inclined they could make a projectile which explodes into tungsten fragments, now picture if you will a railgun which fires a projectile that fragments out moments before impact, acting like a shotgun at near point blank range.
They are sometimes called the finger of god, or a rod from god if fired from orbit down.

It gives a double 'chirp' when ready in the helmet that's almost necessary to wear when using this. In the redo i did last night it can be shouldered now so a helmet might only do any good if you don't want to pepper the area around the target trying to hit it. Then again, peppering the area around a target only does you good if they're lined up in columns and marching.
But i do agree, they won't know what hits them and the guy next too him is going to wonder were his comrade went and why he's covered in blood.

Theoretically possible to fire a slug out of a railgun at light speed, or at least C fractional velocity's.
The problem is that you would need an infinite amount of power to fire that railgun, let alone getting it to fling a shell without ripping itself apart from its own magnetic forces. However, a more realistic and still lethal velocity would be 25 to 30 Kilometers a second. a 10mm BB flying at that speed however would not gib something, rather it would put a hole in a person (a fairly big one, but i digress).
Uranium projectiles are highly incendiary to the point of oxidizing and or even combusting when exposed to enough oxygen, this is why modern military's use it as an incendiary tip to burn through things. Might I recommend using a tungsten based BB, as it is both magnetically conductive to a degree (where as uranium is not if i remember correctly) and heavier then uranium by 10 to 15%. ((19.7x the density of water, 70% heavier then lead :D))
And yes i know the above is a coil gun, i was referencing a railgun in this example as it would be the likely candidate to fire something at light speed. You cannot make a coilgun do the same, as they need multiple phases of magnets firing at the correct moment to speed things up. this needs more time then it has if firing something at light speed.

My error, i meant to put it as something close to saying 'breaking the sound barrier' or 'sonic speed'. My brain was all garbled last night so i had trouble think. Thus one reason i labeled it a Rail Gun and why some imformation is inconsistant or outright incorrect.
But I do thank you for explaining it out. Glad someone knows more than i do with my limited knowledge, i don't make hand held coil/rail/gauss rifles that often so what i learn from a previous work is pretty much lost by the time i make another weeks or months later.
