I'm digging the SCAR GL on the FN2000, works really well.ygetoff said:Snip
I would like to see a 3D mock up (or even a real-life mock up) of this. It's hard to tell how it would be from these images. Cool concept though.LordMalachi said:Hey guys! So that Post Apoc Rifle I've been working on that I hope I've posted here already is in V3 now!
Well, last week Trish decided that she really liked the old version of the rifle, which I did indeed name Trish, so we sat down and tried to come up with a way of making the old design work. We got lucky one day as a traveler named Foz I believe passed by our camp and had a suggestion; Take an old bolt action bolt that he had in his pocket, hollow it out and cut a groove in the bottom so that it could slide over the bullet. That way it would form a seal with the barrel, and the blowback would force it back so the cylinder could be rotated by Trish's clockwork mech. So far this idea has worked pretty well, we cut a hole in the rear of the reciever for the new bolt to extend through as it's fairly long with all the parts inside it now, and the weight of the rifle has dropped some because the cylinder is lighter. Infact, stopping power has even increased because of the tight seal we get now compared with the other revolver system. And accuracy hasn't dropped in the least!
Reg is wondering if we could build something like this for him to use with a chain, and I don't see why not, we could make it full auto no problem and instead of a rotating cylinder just have it slide a chain through. But with his M60 I don't understand why he would want something like this o.0
We finally came across one of those tentacle monsters yesterday though... deffinatly not getting one for Trish... Ew...

Also, It is believed there is insufficiant room for you thumb to wrap around the top. I agree, but it's the degree of this problem that is in question. Would it be simply uncomfy? Or just not really possible?
What do we think guys?

Well here's my old chain revolver from back during the steampunk thing finally done in PMG using the same design as that rifle, but with better internal shots.Koeryn said:I would like to see a 3D mock up (or even a real-life mock up) of this.

The concept is kinda cool with the magazine being the barrel, but I have some technical criticisms. What's the point of the bolt and ejection port? Surely all you need is a trigger group and the empty casings to come out the front?sooperman said:It's that time again! Opinion Time!
It's another concept from my older brother; a fully-auto rocket launcher that uses a drum magazine.
The magazine attaches directly to the end of the weapon, acting as a barrel. It fires smart bombs that will lock onto a heat signature and travel to it based on geography and location. It is fully automatic with a 22-round magazine. The mag has two rows with the second feeding into the first row as you fire, just like bullets feed into a receiver.
Thoughts or opinions? Mechanical criticisms? Any feedback is welcomed, thanks.
It's really not an ejection port. A bolt was the only way I could fill in the empty space other than a shape tool. That part of the gun does, however, contain the firing pin, like a bolt would.NimbleJack3 said:The concept is kinda cool with the magazine being the barrel, but I have some technical criticisms.

I really like how smooth the rifle looks, though I do believe that in a lever-action rifle, the trigger guard ring is attached to the lever and swings down as you cock the rifle.LordMalachi said:Hey guys, I haven't seen another Lever action since that one that looked funny and we couldn't quite figure out why, so here's mine ^.^
As stated in the Details, the woodwork is a modified version of Aridar from Flickr's M14.The Smithana Arms Lever Action Rifle in .30-06 is one of the two models produced for both civilian and military use. The civilian model is used by target and game hunters alike with its special round-nosed ammunition, where as the military version is used mainly by under cover forces trying to blend in with civilian populaces and carries 50+ rounds in a helical mag. This allows any .30-06 round to be used.
The Helical Mag has been slimmed from the prototype for several reasons (I say to you white shapes grr ) one of which being the larger the tube, the more noticeable the fact that it's not a normal gun.
The ends of both tubes unscrew for maintenance and spring replacement.
Also the tubes may be detached and replaced if the user so desires.

Well I thought about that, but I figured it would make mine more unique, plus it would be really hard to do it that way >.> But thankssooperman said:I really like how smooth the rifle looks, though I do believe that in a lever-action rifle, the trigger guard ring is attached to the lever and swings down as you cock the rifle.LordMalachi said:Hey guys, I haven't seen another Lever action since that one that looked funny and we couldn't quite figure out why, so here's mine ^.^

You know, I have to check out this Flikr group. It sounds like you guys are pretty good.
Google Image search "lever-action rifle"; it just works that way. Not sure why.LordMalachi said:Well I thought about that, but I figured it would make mine more unique, plus it would be really hard to do it that way >.> But thanks
