Weapons

[[name_withheld]]

While surfing the web I found a website that gave out some gun info/statistics. Whoever finds this interesting might want to check out the site: http://www.olive-drab.com/od_other_firearms.php3

My dad used this gun, except his had the foregrip from a shotgun and a mid-power scope added on.

This site will come in handy when I do researh for my RPG combat engine. Danke.

I want one of these for my birthday, along with about 5000 rounds of ammo for it.

I gots a RPG engine in work right now too - I call it TIRES (pronounced "tires", it's an acronym).

M-14s are one hell of alot more powerful than an m-16 or any other rifle using .223 ammo (about 2/3 to 3/4 as powerful as a shotgun per bullet), but later on they found out that the m-14 wasnt very feasible for combat because it weighed too much or something (and it got replaced by the m-18 and m-16, though the m-18 didnt stick around very long either - that's why most people dont know of it).

I got a better site for you if you're looking for weapons:

http://world.guns.ru



This one was directly accessible from the first link above:

The site design is very nice (wouldnt expect anything less from frontline)

Are you aware that
a) it is insanely heavy - heavier than it looks
b) you can't carry it around and shoot with it - if you try to fire it (assuming that you have the strenght) from your hip, it'll tear your hip out of your body and send it flying 20 meters or so.
c) There's a risk that it malfunctions damn often - I've seen one of these in action and sometimes they just fuckin' refuse to work.

But other than that, it's a mighty cool weapon and it sounds cool as Hell too >:-]

I have a gun...IN MY PANTS!

Can any of these guns:


1. Function reliably in all circumstances? Underwater? Dirty? Rusty? Zero gravity? In mud?

2. Put a hole the size of an elephant in the side of a UFO?

3. Shoot a hole straight through the planet?


No?

Then who cares, broken down unreliable pussy assed weapons.

Yeah, the only good gun in production anymore is the Glock 9. Fill it with sand, it shoots. Take it underwater, it shoots. Point it at some asshat's head, it shoots.

Glock 9, pff. I assume you mean the Glock 17 right, the 9mm model? The Glock 18 is better, it has the full auto switch... which lets it fire at 1500 rounds per minute. You'll go through those 10, 17 or 32 round clips in no time flat. =)

Personally I'm a fan of the Glock 21, the .45 ACP model. You only get 12 shots instead of 17, but if you can aim you can do a hell of a lot more with that. If you're a good shot you really don't injure people with a .45 the same way you do with a 9mm. ^.^

GIT OFF MAH PROPERTA!

[Doom-Child]

Yeah, whichever, the 9mm version.
