the problem is that the legit major commercial companies are not allowed to field such weapons. my daughter is currently part of a SECDET attached to a cruiseliner - if she could get access to a 20mm or similar she'd be as happy as a pig in schitt - needless to say they have to use other "options". there are unfortunately international restrictions in place for some onboard weapons.
