a gun i made in 10 mins.. and some backstory.

Spoiler

Spoiler

the year wrtien is 2052 and the Royal nations of Netherland are pushing The communist republic of People further and further from europe. The CRoP is in a big dissadvantage because of their old AK's and they dont have the funds to buy new modern bullpul weapon's (wich are very effective in the cities of europe) so they start designing their own weapon an come up with the "современная винтовка атак" wich means modern attack rifle. this weapon is easy to make and like his ancestor the AK he almost never jams. this weapon starts dominating the battlefields of europe and Dutch special commandos start using this weapon on a regular basis. this was a smart move because this weapon played a great role in the "assault on Kursk" where this weapon was used by every Royal soldier however the warriors of the people still used some old AK's.. this was the finale battle of WW3 and the end to the communist opresion.

Just wondering but does anyone know if the guy has updated the site in a while?

Apparently not, unfortunately.


Now, this is a bit of a mess. I was inspired to make something like this after a few space battles on Star Wars Battlefront 2.

Spoiler

The Goliath StarCruiser MK.1

Those funny coil things are the sheild generators, the bits on top are the communications array. The two shells right at the back are the engines, and on the bottom there's a dock and a large laser cannon. At the front, there's the command bridge and powerful laser-wave cannon, capable of destroying masses of unsheilded light spacecraft, and severely damaging larger Spaceships.

Perhaps I might make a better version sometime, I feel it's generally a good idea. Feel free to comment.

 

[desternu]

I really need the update, I'm just running out of ideas and I'm making crap like this.

Spoiler: Just an SMG based around the MP5SD

I agree.. same problem..

Spoiler: i have no ideas any more

Spoiler: a top feeded AR. or how you call it

I've checked on Skipper's blog and it looks like a lot of people are flaming him for PMG's inactivity. It doesn't look like there's going to be an update anytime soon, so get ready for the long haul.

It sounds like both of them have hit a rough spot. It seems like donations aren't going well. They should consider either advertisement or charging for their services. It makes sense to me.

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

I think there's two main problems with the layout: the lever itself looks very flimsy and would probably get bent out of shape, and you'd have to take your trigger finger out of the guard in order to operate the lever. It's a shame PMG doesn't have any classic rifles, I'd love to be able to make this in it:

For those commenting earlier that a levergun with a box magazine doesn't work, I point out the Winchester M1895:

Typically the rear sight was mounted ahead of the receiver because there's often nothing on top of the moving bolt to mount it on. It's certainly not impossible to use a conventionally-placed rear sight if you have a mount or a bit of reciever that covers the rear of the bolt, but the sight on the barrel is correct as an option.

That's a great photo to show how lever-actions work. Thanks.

But now, I have ORIGINAL CONTENT! Made this over ~2 hours using Malachi's principle of 'internals first'. It's very detailed, so there's also a pastie so you can take it apart on PMG. It's a space marine-flavored pump-action shotgun with an assault rifle counterpart. Feedback would be much appreciated.

Shotgun

Rifle

Note that, even on the shotgun, the top half swings forward and down like an M4 for maintenance. There's a rear iron sight near the trigger group masquerading as a reinforced hinge.

To provide a few notes to go with: most leverguns use a tube magazine under the barrel similar to the average pump-action shotgun, with a loading port either on the side of the receiver (you can see one of those in the image on the previous page, it's the dip that looks like an ejection port) or the underside; or you might have a combined ejection / loading port up top.

Also, some modern ones like the Browning BLR have the trigger itself disconnect and swing out as part of the lever rather than hinging down or staying put, which reduces the opportunities for accidental discharges and / or lever bite.

Replying to the earlier comments of yours lol
Thanks for the pics And I guess I'll have to edit my rifle to actually have a solid lever and moving trigger guard. Is the rest of it alright though?

I only have a few qualms lol I'm not sure which part is the pump, and if there's enough room to pump it o.0 But that could just be me not knowing much about pump actions lol.
EDIT:
Ok looking at it disassembled helped lol, but I don't understand how you pump it then. Unless the pump itself goes over that RIS piece you have behind it...
END EDIT:
As for the rifle the only thing is the gas tube you used is meant for internal use only, it's too thin and flimsy to be outside of a housing of some kind. That's more technical critiquing though. And just to clarify, you do know the bolt is going to travel into the stock during use right? Not a problem, just can't switch out or fold the stock then (this way other people know as well ) OH and there's no bolt spring But that's just me nitpicking lol

I think the only major issue is I can't see the helical mag variant working; the mag tube really isn't thick enough, and I can't see how you'd be able to wind the drive member backwards using just a loading gate.

Yes, the pump does go over the RIS. It's also no longer a RIS, just a sort of secondary handguard.
Also, the stock's not meant to fold or anything, and you can just swap it out with another stock with the same bolt hole.
I couldn't be stuffed to make a spring, and I don't think they look that good anyway. Better to just handwave it.

That looks RIDICULOUSLY uncomfortable, especially with sustained fire. Interesting concept, but wow.

Spoiler: Arctic Combat AR Pistol (With bayonet lazily stuck through a modified flashlight holder on the left side of the hand guard.)

Nothing really impressive, but it was still entertaining to me.

The pistol grip's behind the receiver, so you'll need to bring it up a few layers. The red dot's not meant to be mounted like that - it's designed for the special mount for the ACOG. There's other problems too, like the stock and the top rail. Keep improving your designs, and show us what you can do.

Congrats on the Gonzo.

Gonzo?

Stock: I stuffed the tube 'behind' the receiver, to make it more 'Patriot' style.

Spoiler: This is the look I was going for.

Pistol Grip: I'd done some shuffling with putting rounds in the magazine (and trying to find a low-profile sight), I didn't think to check the grip's position. Thanks for the heads-up, I'll try and watch out for that on the next one!

Top Rail: There are no rail risers in the current PMG listing, so I had to improvise. It's definitely not perfect, but it's the closest I could get to what I had in mind.

ACOG: I've never dealt with that red dot (I'm an EO-Tech user), and it just seemed to fit the 'small' feel that I was going for. I'll have to track down the proper system for the next time weapon I work on.

Thanks for the tips, and the congratulations? Don't know what that's for, but yeah. I'll see if I can't do better with my next design.

Spoiler: My entry for the impracticality contest

Impracticality, or AWESOME contest?

I guess both now. I mean, who doesn't want a shotgun with a under barrel machine-gun, a over-barrel deagle, grenade launcher, rifle scope, and a grip? The answer, no-one.

i want two of them, you know were to send them 007

Spoiler: Second attempt at pump action

Went for a more traditional pump action this time. It looks weird mostly because the AK reciever is too long. Couldn't figure out any fixes for it unfortunately. Still, mostly happy with it.
