- haneefmubarak 7y agoCoil guns require a lot more precision and accuracy in both manufacture and timing than rail guns, because you have to sequence the pulsing of the coils (compared to one massive burst of sustained power on a rail gun). In a nutshell, you need to deal with most of the rail gun hard problems and then also deal with the added coil gun problems.
