In order, half wrong, wrong and wrong. The charging handle doesn't necessarily have to be directly in line with the barrel (though on the TDI Vector it's literally touching the top of it), the Vector's magazine is in line with the ejection port, and the ejection port is a hole looking down into the chamber immediately below it, so the base of the port is in line with the top of the barrel.

I thought we got over ejection port alignment long ago. In any case, the Kriss Super V defies all three of the criteria you listed, yet it still works.

I like the way you think, man.Accountfailed said:

I'll concede that perhaps you may have merit there, but just because people who've only last year begun to know much about guns make mistakes it's no reason to chew them out. I've never been able to properly remember the name of the Vector anyway.Evil Tim said:In order, half wrong, wrong and wrong.

Also, it's called the Vector, the Kriss Super V is the name of the mechanism. You guys are as bad as the ones who still insist Nintendo has a console called the Revolution.
Apologies, the latter point is something that rather bugs me given the number of people prone to insisting it's called the "Kriss Super V" even though the company clearly isn't marketing it under that name anymore.NimbleJack3 said:I'll concede that perhaps you may have merit there, but just because people who've only last year begun to know much about guns make mistakes it's no reason to chew them out.

Your remarks about 'you people' are rather un-called for. Try simply correcting mistakes rather than punishing them.
Ah, okay then. I'll remember for the future.

I love the idea that its a giant rubber band gun, you wouldn't use a scope though =/Godavari said:NOTE: This is an entry for the contest being held within the group.
Russian MR-B 8:
Commissioned in the year 2016 by Russian forces, this weapon was designed as a silent yet effective grenade launcher. The gun uses a synthetic elastic substance that never wears out or stretches permanently. The tool proved competent in the fierce trench warfare of the First Russo-Khazakstani War, however its bulk and slow rate of fire (after a shot, the user must use a handle to retract the elastic, then barrel-load another grenade) eventually lead to its decommission. Collectors still covet these rare weapons, of which only 1,296 were ever made. It is rumored that Russian Covert Ops teams may make use of a more modern version of the MR-B in stealth-based operations, but at this time, that is merely speculation.
Probably the fact that actually operating the lever would be impossible with the magazine right infront of it, and the fact that the adjustable sight is on the barrel.Wadders said:
Lever action Rifle of my own design. Not too pleased with the overall look of it, but hey. Something doesn't feel quite right with it though, anyone care to tall me what that might be?
Mmmmm that might be it but I don't see a reason the lever would have to travel out past the "straight up and down" point (I just woke up and don't feel like doing geometry in my head, sorry) if the internals are set up correctly to utilize that amount of leverage.Gezab said:Probably the fact that actually operating the lever would be impossible with the magazine right infront of it, and the fact that the adjustable sight is on the barrel.Wadders said:

you don't need the feed tube if you have a magazine, so the bottom tube should be much smallerTheRightToArmBears said:
Strange shotgun, feel free to comment.
