Betcha it can't outrun .410 or .22lr.

.22lr suppresses real well.

Or paintballs, at a closer range.

Hitting a drone with a subsonic suppressed .22 would be challenging, to say the least.

I'm presuming they hover in place as part of their flight pattern, but yeah, it would take a pretty good shot, a pretty good marksman, otherwise.
