GUNSMITHING - High (12+) Level Fabrication?

[system]

Dangit.
Use the modular system!

[spoiler=Mechanic parts]1) Assault Rifle m. - Good speed, able to burstfire(maybe also fullauto mode? Like, shoot until you can aim enemies and have ammo in the ammo box), utilizes standard rifle ammo, gives out intermediate power but rather rare and hard to manufacture
2) Hand-loading m. - Slow, fully manual, high power, rather easy to manufacture and find
3) SMG m. - very fast, but carries low punch. As difficult as AR mech., but easier to find
4) MG m. - VERY fast, carries power of an elephant, INSANELY HARD TO FIND AND PRODUCE
5) Pistol/revolver m. - semi-auto, low-caliber ammo and shells, easy to find and make
Modifiers:

1. Rapid-fire - allows auto/burst-fire
2. High-caliber - allows usage of higher caliber
3. Shell-shot - allows to use shotgun shells
   [/spoiler]
   Barrells: Long-short, heavy-light, caliber dependant, no need to go deep here.

[spoiler=External parts]Stocks:

1. AR - absorbs shock nicely, but rather heavy
2. SMG - VERY light but absorbs almost no shock
   Modifier: Telescopic - absorbs shock much better
   Handguards:
3. AR - quite long, allows middle and long barrells
4. SMG - short barrells only, but light
   Modifier: Railed - allows installation of additional handle
   Handles:
5. Pistol - light, shitty stability. Used also for SMG
6. AR - slightly heavier, better stability sine it’s constructed with auto-fire in mind
   Complex parts:
7. Rifle box - handguard, stock and handle together. Good stability, but heavy. Allows placement of longest barrells
8. Short-cut rifle box - no stock, shorter handguard, middle-length and short barrells only
9. Sniper stock - stock combined with handle, very good shock absorption[/spoiler]
   Ammo boxes: too lazy to write it because too obvious

Everything said here. XD Though I think the SAW uses cloth bags for ammo, could be an amusing thing to see Cloth bags on non-MG weapons XD

we already have ‘crazy’ people with belt fed AKs and ARs It’s not too much of a stretch…

Belt Fed Glock D:

ok… maybe

[AseaHeru]

I would image that many of the weapon mods in game could be used to make guns.

So a pistol grip, rifled barrel, etc. = pistolriflethingie221

It’s clever and a few should probably be useable in that way but not all of them, the rifled barrel for example is intended for use on a shotgun (and should make it unsuitable for firing shot, haven’t used it so I don’t know.)

[AseaHeru]

Still, the idea still sora stands.

[FunsizeNinja123]

Can I make a double barrel mag fed shotgun? That would hold 6 or 8 shots? Mag would look like this:

---

|O-O|
|O-O|
|O-O|
|O-O|

[AseaHeru]

Wouldn’t have to be belt fed.

[system]

Did anyone mention belt-fed double-barrell automatic shotgun?
Count me in.

[FunsizeNinja123]

I said it was mag fed, but…

[AseaHeru]

You know that we have large capacity shotguns already, right?
And that they are full auto?

[Misha]

[quote=“AseaHeru, post:22, topic:3621”]You know that we have large capacity shotguns already, right?

And that a full 30 round mag of 12 gauge shotshells weighs around 8 pounds?

I STILL WANT AN AUTOMATIC DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN

Double barrel shotguns should have an alt fire mode where you fire both the barrels at the same time. That’s one reason to use 'em.

Also, WHY CAN’T WE MAKE DOUBLE BARREL PIPE SHOTGUNS

[EkarusRyndren]

I STILL WANT AN AUTOMATIC DOUBLE BARREL SHOTGUN

Acquire Two AA12s

Wield one in each hand

…?

Profit

[FunsizeNinja123]

I mean, I could just duct tape two saigas together but the recipe isn’t in there and my fingers would probably not reach the other trigger.

And we both know that you can’t dual wield anything.

[system]

How about adding a little stick to the dut-taped saigas that you can actually pull to pull both triggers at once?

[kevin.granade]

GIVE EM THE STICK! DON’T GIVE EM THE STICK!

[vache]

GIVE EM THE STICK! DON’T GIVE EM THE STICK!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

As fun as this would be, actually making anything more complex than a muzzleloader or a zipgun generally requires the use of some relatively heavy machinery (a lathe and/or drill press at the very least unless you’re insanely skilled). You could probably find said hardware in LMOE shelters, cabin sheds, public works etc, but I don’t think even a UPS is strong enough to actually power them for a reasonable length of time; you’d need some sort of generator in place to do that.

did someone say

GUNSMITHING?

I went to school for gunsmithing. it’d be interesting to see a feature in cata about this,

also I want to see the ability to make a Remington 1740 870+870+some metal bits =Remington 1740. two recievers held together rigged up to one trigger and one pump. ofcourse in real life you need a left hand 870 and a normal right hand 870 but for cata we could probably let it be. unless…

Left handed options for firearms.
