Pimp My Gun: Show your Creations [Image Posting tips in the First post]

[cuddlesRT75]

look up how a pump-action shotgun works. sure, your pump-action variant has the fore-end ("pump"), but it really isn't serving the purpose that it's meant for.

this page has a nice series of diagrams
http://science.howstuffworks.com/shotgun5.htm

Firstly mine doesn't have the internal magazine so all the pump is doing is cycling the bolt, this was to ensure there was no possibility of the semi-auto fire mode in the gun, the design has stayed the same externally (aside from the addition of the pump) and as such there is no need to change the feed system from the magazine. If you are familiar with the British single action cadet GP rifle - this gun looks and functions similarly to its big brother the SA80 however as it is illegal in the UK for under 16s the fire semi-auto weapons the GP rifle is designed so that it has to be cocked after every shot to cycle the bolt, reload the chamber and reset the firing pin. The gun i designed works on the same idea, no its not a traditional PA shotgun on pumping the bolt is forced back the firing pin reset and as the bolt comes forwards a new round is picked up from the mag and chambered. This is why the pump system looks smaller and so different.

No worries man, it was a good call, should have explained it earlier.

That's actually possible - If you assume that the knife is balanced and streamlined enough to fly straight, then it could function like a muzzle-fired grenade launcher: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rifle_grenade

So I've just finished number 5 in my non-lethal series, and to celebrate, I'm going to throw the whole thing up here.

First off is the newest one; a G36 that I rigged to fire foam rounds. It's like one of those SWAT bean bag guns, but a little flashier.

Spoiler

A BB gun that I built from the ground up. This is not an adaptation of a firearm into a BB gun, which should count for something.

Spoiler

Then we have a gun that spews AB foam. I'm not sure this is legal, but it would be awesome.

Spoiler

This one fires rubber bullets and is capable of being used as a marksman rifle.

Spoiler

A tranquilizer. Self-explanatory. This is the first non-lethal piece I built.

If you have questions about any of these weapons, ask them here. Comments and criticism are welcome for all of my creations, so if you have anything to add, feel free.

Here is my newest creation, the Vyper PDW.
3 layouts - 1st is compact, 2nd is fully extended, 3rd is tactical including holo sight and silencer.

Enjoy

Vyper... Alright I like it

You have just a few bugs to buff out, but it's cool to see some PDW's in here. Is this going to be a series like the TDI Super V? That would be neat to work with, I think.

Practice, thats all i need, only found PMG just over a week ago Though pointing out the bugs wouldn't hurt either!

You're doing well. Practice will smooth out out the bumps and if you think something needs work, ask us here. This thread is full of helpful people.

But since you asked, there are a few things. Firstly, the Vyper doesn't have a proper ejection port, and what I think would be your ejection port is blocked by the stock when folded. And just as a mechanical detail, that MP5 stock rises back up the metal support beam when unfolded.

So good luck in the future, love the PDW, and lets us know if you have questions.

 

[cuddlesRT75]

Yeah I didnt include a conventionally placed ejection port as i was using the F2000 upper receiver with the forward ejector port and was using that instead of making another one, however I did keep the export codes for this gun so i can tinker with it some more.

Never knew that about the stock, cheers.

I think the knife would have to be perfectly balanced, though, right?

 

[Evil Tim]

Little something I'm working on.

Upper module is a fully automatic 12-gauge. Yes, I'm aware the magazine and ejection port are currently a little far back.

That's certainly... interesting. Good work on the charging handle for the shotgun, and the carrying handle looks great. Only issue is the choice of barrel furniture - flash hiders, handguards, etc. They seem a bit off compared to the rest of the gun.

Awesome as always Toryu

Here are a few more creations from me

Firstly after the earlier non-lethal post by Sooperman i decided to make my own tranquilliser gun, its a break action gas powered pistol, the rear grip is to aid in breaking the gun, I know that having a bolt in there may look weird but its intended not as a bolt but as a retracting barrel - as the gun is mag loaded at the front every time you break the gun to reload the barrel retracts then upon closing the gun the barrel extends forwards and collects the next round. I call it the Spokoiene Noche - which means good night in Russian, but im not sure about it suggestions welcome!

Spoiler

Next is a scratch built single action sniper rifle called the Zobrost and what I'm calling the Colt Reaper but its really just a modified M4 - I dont like the G36 mag on this but didnt save the code

Unfortunately, the rifle is completely implausible. A hand-held Gatling rifle with 200 rounds + battery would be terribly heavy and awkward to carry, let alone fire. The box you have to hold ammo would be about 3 seconds worth of ammunition at 4000rpm. Shooting at 600rpm would also probably snap your wrist off, and jerk the gun up into the air or turn it into a bullet hose - even using 7.62 mm rifle ammunition. There's a reason these things are bolted to helicopters or the ground.
Even so, it would make a nice concept if you had the strength to carry and fire enough ammunition as well as the gun.

Looks like we have some problems, but I do always enjoy fixing these things. I suppose that I could lower the fire rate, though I still think three seconds of fire could work if you fired in bursts. If I fired at only 2000rpm, I'd squeeze six seconds of fire out of my 200 rounds, while still being able to dish out a lot of bullets.

The weight actually went into consideration while I was building. I tried to focus weigh toward the front to reduce muzzle climb, though you would probably have to be a space marine just to carry the thing with you. Thoughts on that?

Even firing in bursts, you'd have trouble compensating for the hideous muzzle climb that results from firing 10 rounds at once. All the problems are solved if you say 'it's for a space marine', but it's just not gonna happen with a normal, squishy person.

Hint: fire smaller ammunition. Instead of 7.62 (which is completely infeasible in a gun of this type), or even 5.56mm ammunition, maybe use a pistol round, like .45 caliber or something like it.

Edit: There's a very good reason gatling guns are bolted onto heavy objects: they're too heavy and too fast. At 3000 rpm, any handheld gun would not only shear your arms off, but break your back because of the weight. From world.guns.ru:

http://world.guns.ru/machine/minigun-e.htm

This should gve a basic idea of how much weight there is. the smallest minigun has recoil of 240 lbs, while the biggest has over 4 tons.

Well, yes. We've established that the gun's impossible to use in the real world. This is why we are talking about space marines.

I must've missed that one.

And it's not impossible, you'd just need a smaller caliber round, given that the rate of fire and recoil would be insane.

.22 minigun! You could carry that
