The Lyrics
New non-lethal variable velocity gun. Uses a gas-vented .50 Cal round with enough Kinetic Energy and speed to bring down a body without penetration. Still in development. Approved by police and acceptable for civilian security jobs.
Pogojet- something new
Right for times
Rubber bullets and bean bags crude
New tech applyin'
Slowed bullet flyin'
Laser rangefinder decides it
Velocity of the round
Out to 100 meters
Gas vents slow the .50 down
(Aimed at torso, brings suspects to the ground)
Pogojet- something new
Right for times
Cool design
Useful tool
Police approved
Civil app too
Better than rubber bullets or bean bags
Non-lethal cares
Speed, KE
No need for guns with mags
Could replace taser too
Pogojet- something new
Right for times
(So far, mostly positive reviews)

If you thought of the Convair XFY-1 tailsitter "Pogo" plane- sorry!
Pogojet sounds more interesting that taser. I did like this.
I wonder what the liability would be if the laser rangefinder malfunctions and wrong velocity seriously injured somebody?
That's why they call all the new stuff "less leathal" rather than "non-lethal". Any time you have a projectile, someone could get hurt. I had some Brazilian "anti-motin" ammo, 12 gauge with plastic pellets. Wouldn't scratch the paint on an old water heater. Warning on box in Portuguese said "lethal up to 3 meters". There is a bean bag gun I saw once on line, but too expensive to practice with.
I can't imagine that being hit by any .50 Cal bullet at any velocity and KE would be pleasant. But it might save lives. Send some to inner city cops!
There are people who have died from Tasers. Some would say an allegedly "non-lethal" weapon would make cops even more likely to shoot someone.
