Judge Dredd 'Black Box' recorder/spy kit for guns unveiled

Casper Orillian

Errm

Yeah this is going to help with who shot the guy more times then was needed,

but it looks to me like the black box goes inside the handle, where the magazine goes on pistols, which means either there going to have to have an added stock or a new model of pistol

Actually it is from mostly harmless, after arthur gets rescued by ford, and they ride the perfectly normal beast out of the village and to the land of the king (I.E elvis(on an alien world, go figure)) and ford sees a nice ship outside the bar of the king he wants to buy, so he starts a tab at the bar, goes to the lead singer who owns the ship, and gives him a large amount of cash from his hitchikers card, he then names the figure to arthur, who asks what it could buy, ford runs a few calculations and says it would buy switzerland.

this is a rubbish desicion and is still no better then the original trial desicion
