The original application for this was probably police/military crowd control, firing tear gas, rubber bullets, etc. The weapon would be too expensive and bulky to stock in lifeboats, that would hardly need the rapid-fire capability anyway.... Appeal here is probably to weapons freaks who like to experiment with making their own (illegal) explosive or anti-personnel rounds, and like the idea of packing a whole barrage of such in one magazine.

I checked the link and these are used weapons coming out of Poland. Former communist state police equipment it would seem.

If you think about it, the Communists were the "Party of Law and Order". Sound familiar?

The rule-of-law anti-Federalists have elevated a King George monarch aspirant to the Presiding office.
"Originalism" indeed!
