That was a rail gun, meaning a projectile weapon. Not a beam/electricity projecting weapon.
As for the OP. Yes that gun is real. It's called the Arc Caster from Star Wars Battlefront the video games. You get a nice little jump pack too. Not as nice as Boba Fett's. But, you know, the Empire had to cut back a little bit after the death star. Can't be spending all willy nilly like.
In all seriousness, if you really want an answer tell us where you saw/heard about this gun. Being so coy will get you nowhere. You have never been in area 51 and seen a secret weapon so don't try to make people here think you have seen something special. My opinion.edit on 29-4-2011 by James1982 because: (no reason given)

"hits a 3x3 target"
should be -has an area effect of 3'x3' at ?what range?- does that grow down range like a cone? if I am understanding what you meant by that correctly...
what is the maximum effective range?

I think the OP is making things up and playing games. I would love to be proven wrong though.

How is he making things up and playing games? He is not claiming that such a gun exists. Only asking if one does.... Is it so bad for the OP to have a question?

He's asking about a classified Electro Magnetic Pulse gun, or EMP. Range of only 30 -45 feet. The beam dispersion is 36x36 inches at 15 feet, so it get appreciably weaker the further out. I have never seen one of these, only a description on a technical white paper.
Question to OP, have you seen one? At Alice Springs?
