What are Gamaxers?

Post by Subnormal »

I read it in some old 80s short Sci Fi stories. I believe it has to do with gamma type lasers. Am unsure, wondering wether any of you have heard of them.

And no you can't have a small version either

Sorry bout that, damn. The host of the picture changed the one I wanted to use.

That was pretty horrific LOOKing but in reality it is a movie prop from Saving Private Ryan, fodder of the Flakk gun.

Three things Doku

1. It matters not if its a fluffy bunny or a horrific sceane of death its much to big
2. Picture Sigs are on the most part discouraged, See MK Shepereds to see what is about the Max in picture size
3. I have no fucking clue what the Gamaxers are

I've never heard of them and google draws a blank. Could you be thinking instead of grasers or xasers?

It's used in a story called: The crazy boy and the Bully. Used before Gravshields as info on the Kalaxi ship armaments. In ancient book series by Analog or something.
