I'm imagining a shoulder mounted auto-targeting pistol. 9mm rounds go 1500 ft per second, so probably within 300 meters a drone wouldn't have the reaction time

I'm imagining a shoulder mounted auto-targeting pistol.
9mm rounds go 1500 ft per second, so probably within 300 meters a drone wouldn't have the reaction time to dodge a bullet with precise aim.
It could also be mounted on a dog, real or robotic.
Actually building this thing though might be a science fiction dream.

About a decade ago, DARPA developed a .50 caliber gun round that has onboard guidance.[1] They were thinking snipers, not anti-drone, but maybe the concept can be adapted.
