1. A gun comprising: a tubular valve, the tubular valve moveable between a closed position and an open firing position, the open firing position adapted to cause a motive gas to expel a projectile from the gun, the tubular valve defining an interior cavity portion and an annular motive gas sealing face; anda fixed core adapted to substantially fill the interior cavity portion when said tubular valve is in the open firing position;the gun adapted to prevent, when said tubular valve is in the open firing position, the motive gas from flowing through the fixed core or through the interior cavity portion. 2. The gun of claim 1, wherein: the gun is adapted to, in the closed position and within approximately 2 milliseconds, substantially halt flow of the motive gas, the motive gas having a static pressure of approximately 3500 psi or more. 3. The gun of claim 1, wherein: the gun is adapted to, in the open firing position and within approximately 10 milliseconds, pneumatically deliver up to approximately 2,500 foot pounds of energy to the projectile. 4. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: a movable double acting piston connected to the tubular valve and adapted to move between an open piston position and a closed piston position as directed by a control gas provided by a solenoid controlled by a controller. 5. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: a solenoid valve adapted to control a flow of a control gas provided to a piston that is adapted to open and close the tubular valve. 6. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: a first solenoid valve adapted to control a flow of a control gas provided to a piston to open the tubular valve; anda second solenoid valve adapted to control a flow of a control gas provided to a piston to close the tubular valve;the first solenoid valve timed independently from the second solenoid valve. 7. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: a controller adapted to transmit a request for a timed burst of the motive gas, the request based on at least an available pressure of the motive gas and a weight of the projectile. 8. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: a controller adapted to transmit a plurality of requests for a timed burst of the motive gas, each burst adapted to fire each of a plurality of projectiles at a substantially constant muzzle velocity throughout a range of reservoir gas pressures of from approximately 300 psi to approximately 3,500 psi, and throughout a range of projectile weights of from approximately 10 grains to approximately 1200 grains. 9. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: a controller adapted to transmit a plurality of requests for a timed burst of the motive gas, each burst of gas adapted to fire one of a plurality of projectiles, all of the plurality of projectiles, upon exiting a muzzle of the gun, having a user-selected and substantially constant kinetic energy or a user-selected and substantially constant velocity, each burst corresponding to a different reservoir gas pressure. 10. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: an energy indicator adapted to indicate a non-zero kinetic energy of the projectile. 11. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: a velocity selector adapted to allow a user of the gun to input a user-selected non-zero velocity for the projectile. 12. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: a kinetic energy selector adapted to allow a user of the gun to input a user-selected non-zero kinetic energy for the projectile. 13. The gun of claim 1, further comprising: a user interface adapted to indicate at least one of a number of remaining firings, a pressure of the motive gas, and a position of a safety. 14. A gun comprising: a controller adapted to transmit a plurality of requests for a calculated timed burst of gas, each burst of gas adapted to fire one of a plurality of projectiles, all of the plurality of projectiles, upon exiting a muzzle of the gun, having a user-selected and substantially constant kinetic energy or a user-selected and substantially constant velocity, each burst corresponding to a different reservoir gas pressure, each burst calculated based on a user-selectable projectile weight. 15. A method comprising: transmitting, from a predetermined gun controller, a request for a calculated timed burst of gas adapted to fire a projectile, the request based on at least an available motive gas pressure, a user-selectable weight of the projectile, and a predetermined non-zero kinetic energy for the projectile or a predetermined non-zero velocity for the projectile.
