MAIN MILITARY WEAPON OF YOUR COUNTRY (MK. II) P2

[Solyhniya]

I knew I was going to go out of business.

Fix the rear sights.
Muck with the stock, something tells me it... needs something.
Gas block 2 barrel needs more clunk.

I think it's because the stock doesn't angle down, like an AK-type stock would, and is too high for the sights? I remember I had that issue with my SA-AR-3 rifle.

I want the stock to be on a level higher than the barrel because that will significantly dampen recoil (or at least the muzzle climb effect). It seemed to work when I measured it with the sights but I'll take another scale measurement to check.

Incidentally, I hope I'm not the only one who's noticed that loadsa NS rifles have their sights too low / stocks too high. Even designers like Lyras are guilty of this, and I think one of Anemos's battle rifles has a suspiciously low sight profile as well (though I can't remember if this is so).

Only battle rifle I've done is this:

where the stock is already quite low.

Yeah that's the one. Funny, the profile doesn't look as bad as I remembered it - my apologies.

Still, a lot of NS rifle sight profiles aren't too great, especially on bullpups.

[Solyhniya]

Looks NATO-tastic! I like the work you've done with the STANAG-style magazine, the whole thing just looks very realistic, like you could find it IRL.

Just wondering, if that stock is telescoping, what does it look like folded out or is it already so?

You're too kind.



Like this, I'd guess.

So why is it that your telescoping stock, if anything, makes the rifle less compact? Closed, it's the same length as the standard stock, open it's much longer.

I got a lot of that with my original SA-AR-1 lineart.
But that did start with lolhuge sights front and rear, they were probably about 2 inches above the gun. Most of the suggestions were about moving them.

Right bit of work before I have to go off

Better or worse?

Are you going for a cutting/ bludgeoning weapon, thrusting weapon, or general use?

General use. It's a spatha basicly. But they like to cut more then the Romans.

General use. It's a spatha basicly. But they like to cut more then the Romans.

Spatha was adopted by the Romans because the barbarians that made up the near entirety of the army by then didn't like the thrusting of the gladius

[Novariea]

Right, sorry, it's just that I thought that just about all 5.56mm mags were STANAG. And fair enough. I think I prefer the 20 round mags to a 30 round polymer one anyway. They just seem to fit the gun.

Well, STANAG-compliant, but the aluminium box was the original STANAG basis.

And that's not necessarily true. The FAMAS F1, for example.

G36 too. And I think the SIG SG 550 as well.

Ah, of course, how silly of me. Still...

[Samozaryadnyastan]

There're swords in the gun thread. Many of them.

I'm scared and uncomfortable.

wasn't it also that it wanted to improve it's cavalry core to combat the goth who whipped using lancers at the battle of Adrianople? Also, try a Type XIa, it's still broad , so it could cut and crush well, blade is shorter that a Type XI and has a better point and pommel than a type X. http://www.stronghold-knights.com/site/article124.html

If they had been paying attention to cavalry, they would have adopted curved swords, like the Byzantines that would soon arise.

The Spatha is a development brought on by Germanic mercenaries in the Roman Legions being more comfortable with their native long swords then weedy little daggers. The cavalry naturally adopted them as being better then anything else.

Musket?

Yes. Problem?

Need a PT MMW thread.

Get the fuck out, not everyone plays MT in the main.

[Interstellar Britannia]

That's one ugly musket

[Oterro]

Musket?

Yes. Problem?

Yes officer

Lacks bayonet

Lacks wood

[NewNation070611]

Yes. Problem?

Yes officer

Lacks bayonet

Lacks wood

Is space musket

Actually...

[NewNation070611]

Yes. Problem?

Why? Is it because lasers don't need rifling?

Not laser.

But yeah basically. Sort of. Maybe. You'd have to ask Konji Omniglomeratt

[Interstellar Britannia]

Yes officer

Lacks bayonet

Lacks wood

Is space musket

Actually...

But it is not muzzle loaded, if I am correct in ascertaining that that circular object is an energy cell of some kind.

[Oterro]

Yes officer

Lacks bayonet

Lacks wood

Is space musket

Actually...

All I hear is

''WOOD IS TOO HEAVY SAH

MY FEEBLE FUTURE TECH ARMS CANNOT HEFT SUCH A MIGHTY MATERIAL, BOUNTY OF THE FOREST, TREASURE OF THE GROVE THAT IT IS!

I MIGHT TRIP AND SLAY MYSELF 'PON MY BAYONET SAH!''

Fucking lol'd.

Yes. Problem?

Yes officer

Lacks bayonet

Lacks wood

Also, lacks general musketry.

[Oterro]

Aye but at first glance, wood and cold British steel are the indicators of musketry present on the firearm, wot!+

[NewNation070611]

Bayonet added. Can't be arsed to make it wooden colour. Imagine the stock is brown

Yes, my lightsaber looks more like a dildo. What of it?

It's a cuboid but yeah.

Still, IT'S JUST A NAME

Ah, I see; common mistake.

Basically, instead of clicking ''very light grey'' for the bayonet's steel you've clicked ''weird ass fucking blue''.

This is pretty common amongst those new to the business, there's no shame in it and it's easy to fix!

Aside from that, loliknownothingaboutguns.
