BFG9000.
It works against demon spawn and giant cyborg minotaurs, it'll work against dinosaurs.

What I recall is that my M16 was ineffective. I only had a few grenades. There was some bureaucratic problem with getting more ammunition. Very weird dream.

I love the video of the PTRS-41 firing that i put in my last post. Watch the violence of that recoil in slow-mo and enjoy.
This would be a good alternative as long as you're in a semi-static position:  M-107 self-loading .50BMG rifle, 10+1 capacity. The PTRS-41 is twice as powerful though. Quote:

  A 40mm HEDP round should definitely get the job done with one shot. An M-16 rifle would probably be completely inneffective vs a thick skinned critter like a T-Rex unless you're making eye shots. Last edited by m21sniper; 09-08-2009 at 09:28 AM.. |

Not sure what the deal with the aliens was. They weren't in the dream long enough for me to figure out how to deal with them. There was mind control involved, and not in a good way. And next time, I won't run up that dark tunnel . . .

Sounds like the the Market is full of huge peril (man eaters) at the moment and you do not have the tools or money to effectively deal with it. The Aliens are unforeseen things or territory that lurk on the periphery, something new that you don't know how its going to play out and your going have to be dealing with as in new government regs, taxes or programs. Lots of anxiety in this one.
Maybe a little self introspection is all the weaponry you need.

As for literal T-Rex stoppers...a 50 BMG in a Barrett 81 or similar is about the only thing man portable that would get a T-rex's attention.

A hummer with a Dillon Aero-gun attached and a trailer of ammo would do it.

Lot of moving pieces right now and am scrambling trying to get "in sync" with the market's direction in the next three months. At this time of the year, we are basically on a countdown - finishing the year strong is what its all about. Feeling kind of hectic on the schedule too. Came back from vacation, then had to travel in SF Bay Area last week, then an out-of-town wedding this last weekend, taking redeye to NYC and then to Boston this week, its all kind of nuts. I have a committment to the board of my kids' school, am supposed to set up a meeting and literally have not been able to schedule it for the past multiple weeks. Or, maybe the son's stuffed dinosaur was the last thing I saw before falling asleep? Maybe I need to drink more.

OrBS - Orbital Bombardment System
One of these days, if we ever are sucessful in making it to other solar systems, we may actually have to worry about things like this.

Global winter or meteor impact, but I'm not sure what caliber that is, but it should work for most of the big "saurs". However, it might take awhile, and you gotta stay warm too.
Slack off a little on the meds John. Your dreams should eventually de-escalate to zombies which are a little more manageable with regular household utensils.  Try this website: http://www.sleeps.com/forums/nightmares/22215.htm Sherwood |

If you are ever confronted by a t-rex or other giant meat eater and have limited firepower.....just go for the eyes.....they can't eat you if they can't see you.....
Raptors?.......a mini-gun would work we...... Or just find a M1A1 and relax
