Spoiler: SA - IRAC 9th Honor Division

Spoiler: Info on it

The Imperial Revolving Autocannon as shown for the Imperial 9th Artillery Honor Division. They are the single highest ranking division out of an artillery units.

Shown is the Towed model, with no wooden parts. That fact alone proves the 9th Division's skill as an all metal weapon platform is only rewarded to a crew that has gone 7 engagements without a loss of crew, or damage to the platform itself. The entire 9th Division boasts these machines. Serving as living medals for their deeds.

Spoiler: SA - IRAC Normal Field Edition

Spoiler: Details on it including actual stats and more backstory

During the World Steam War of 1838 The Prussian Empire set plans into motion to out do the British Trench Guns. These plans became the Revolving Autocannon, firing much larger shells than the older British guns. However, due to a lack of resources the Prussian Military had to cut corners where ever possible, and that meant making every possible piece of every gun out of wood. The guns ran hotter since most of their housing was wood, but they were cheaper to build.

Massive 35mm and 40mm versions of this design are also on the drawing board for base defense. These versions are to be steam driven so as to avert any problems with a failed round. Also, it will allow firing speed to be easily regulated. They will not be man portable in any way however. They require large engines and thus are for building and steamship mounting only.

Bullet Scale: .45ACP/5.56mm NATO/7.62mm OR/.50BMG/20mm (apx)

Name: Imperial Revolving Autocannon
Catagory: Revolver Autocannon
Caliber: 20mm Shell
Action: Fully Automatic (5 round bursts are reccomended)
Operation: Gas Piston
Cooling: Liquid Jacket-Water
Magazine Capacity: 50 (Shown) 100 (Double wide mag not shown)
Crew Size: 3 (Optimal) 2 (Minimum Portable) 1 (If stationary)

I think it'll need hydrolic stabilizers because of the weight of the cooling jacket. And a quad-pod might be a good idea for recoil. Also, the trigger is the mag release. The actual trigger is a double button setup, one button per hand grip. The tan cloth on the cooling jacket is actually a leather cover so that the crew can handle touching the super hot cooling jacket in order to replace it. It has seen some wear and tear in the field. The first brass bump on the top is the charging handle, offset slightly to the left side. The second is the targeting sight. The third is the coolent access. The coolent access is frequently used as a front sight, although that is not its purpose.

Spoiler: Short Desc. of it

The Smithana Arms Sporting Rifle Gladiator shown here in 7.62mm is a single shot break open rifle. However, it's simplicity allows it to change barrels in under 2 mins, allowing the user to fire almost any existing rifle round, including muzzle loaded black powder! (This will be my next version)

For the moment I'm using the Draggy stock just because it's late and I don't feel like making a new one, I just did that with the handguard

That's what I've been up to The SpR also has a muzzle load version that I've done so far, but I've been busy remodeling the house too.

Harbinger Rifle

Spoiler: Harbinger Rifle Mk1 with Internals

Spoiler: Details on it

Alright. It's finally done *dies* This was 6+ hours of work right here lol.
Seen in:
Ready
Firing
Ready (Internal)
Firing (Internal)

Caliber: .30-06
Action: Semi-Automatic
Operation: Direct Impingment/Recoil (This means the gasblock/tube shown is ONLY the charging handle mechanics and does not function as a gasblock/tube)
Classification: Anti-Personel Sniper Rifle

Based on the aging and problematic "Twitter" Rifle, the new Harbinger line will have the same purpose and will complete it much better. The rifle shown here is in its "Standalone" form so there are no current attachments. It was felt that a satisfactory sniping platform be perfected /before/ designing the attachments for it.
It is currently being tested by genaric sniping teams throughout several armies.

The Ejection Port should have an internal cover that slides forward in time with the bolt sliding backward. But I didn't show it so you could see things better

I'd love thoughts and opinions, even just "Wow". Anything at all. I feel this is my best work to this day. Although I don't know what those black dots on the last pic are lol You can ignore those and I'll edit them out tommorow or soon at least.

 

[sooperman]

words and guns and stuff

Damn, Malachi, you've been busy, huh? Love the SA steampunk weapons, that is some crazy detail you have going on.

Anyway here is my newest piece of work. The hypothesis is that instead of having an under-mounted shotgun OR a grenade launcher, you can have both in one device.

Spoiler

On the underside of the launcher is a slate that slides using the handle pictured. On the left is shown the launcher with the slate pushed forward, allowing a magazine to be inserted into the launcher making a snug fit. On the right the launcher is shown closed, allowing 40mm grenades to be loaded. In the middle is a front view of the launcher not drawn to scale.

Mechanical criticism is welcomed, and I want to know if you think it would work.

Lol well thank you
And from what you've shown I think it would work, but you'd have a hell of a time sealing that "slate" so the pressure isn't released through it when you fire the grenade. And I'm not sure how you'd get the shot shell to fit in the hole as a grenade >.> You might need an insert to keep in the barrel to hold the shells. I'm not sure if I explained that well...

 

[sooperman]

You might need an insert to keep in the barrel to hold the shells. I'm not sure if I explained that well...

I think I know what you are talking about. If we are thinking of the same thing; oh bugger you're right. I have a fix for that, but I will have to rebuild it so that will wait until I have time. :/

Alrighty. I'll wait then

 

[Godavari]

EDIT

Spoiler

Well, since nobody seems to have taken an interest, I asked one of my weapon-savvy friends and he said the bottom-feeding horizontal mag was a no-go. So, it's out with the old and in with the new. This sniper feeds from a horizontal mag on the top. As in the old version, the F2000 scope cover acts to lock the magazine in place, and slides foreward when changing mags. The scope is set on a pivoting mount, so it can be moved out of the way when reloading. Thoughts? I'm looking for functional critiques.

 

[desternu]

tell me what ya think

 

[Godavari]

Spoiler

tell me what ya think

Aesthetically, it looks robust and pretty interesting. There are a few issues with blending (such as where the reciever meets the stock), but I'll let them slide since you're new.

Functionally, I take issue with two things: one, the magazine doesn't go where it's supposed to. Not only is it shaped wrong, (what I'm assuming is) the gas tube gets in the way. Second, you put a bolt handle where there's really no need or possible use for one.

With a few improvements, it'll look pretty damn awesome.

 

[desternu]

ty.. ye when i posted it i noticed gas tube.. and the bolt handle is there as a de-jam.. of some kind if a bullet gets stuck..

Hey man, really good stuff. The pistol looks very space-mariney, and the SMG looks like the Bushmaster Carbon-15[footnote]

Spoiler: Bushmaster Carbon-15

[/footnote]. Using the H&K gas bock as a handguard works well. Note that the technical definition of a sub-machine gun is that it uses pistol calibers, so look for the .40 rounds if you want high-caliber. You're using rifle rounds in yours.
I like your 'gun evolution' thing too. The black tape on guns 2-5 looks really awesome, too.
