It's not only about handguns... (LARGE PICS)

So, any comments on the quality of my models?

Blured, they looked good. How long did it take you to make one of them?

.44 Desert Eagle (my first) about 3 hours
Walther PPK about 3 hours
Walther P99 about 3 1/2 hours
Seecamp .380 ACP about 2 hours

Except for the Eagle, they all have removeable magazines, and all have a satisfying trigger pull.

Try wood-- I've made a Luger and a Walker Colt. You wouldn't believe just how big the Walker is... 14 inches! Unfortunately I don't have photos on hand... will try to supply ASAP...

Takes too long. I need to crank out as many guns as possible in a short amount of time for this project.

Hah! That's nothing, try a BWS Nuke50.

17", and 21 lbs

Note: The bit about firing a nuclear warhead is a joke.

A .50 BMG PISTOL???? that's a joke, right?

Seriously, unless the muzzle compensator's bloody effective, I don't figure it'd be much good... way too much recoil. you'd have to be Samson to fire that thing with any hope of accuracy.

Nope. The Nuke50 was inspired by the M-82B1P, another .50 BMG handgun, which is basically an M-82B1K* with the stock cut off.

The Nuke50 was built because of it's awesomeness, and used in several movies, most notably Armed & Dangerous.

* a greatly shortened Barett M-82B

EDIT: How long do you think it will be before someone shortens an NTW-20 down into a handgun?

I didn't see "X-men" enough to remember quotes. And I tought it was funny, hence my previous post.

A bit of advice: In the future, please try to use the Emoticons appropriately.

is not an emoticon that you should use carelessly.

You know, I saw the name of this thread and it immediately brought to mind that 'Monster Garage' clip where they blow the shit out of a car with a minigun.

I don't recall finding it funny but it was a good line.

For some reason I was trying to connect the orginal post comment with the reimagined version of Planet of the Apes and whatever Charleton Heston's character said about guns.

I had an interesting argument with a friend about the M-82B1K earlier today. It ended like this:

Him: Sure, having a really short .50 PDW would be cool and occasionally useful, but why would you want one?
Me: Well... what if your house is infested with Terminators?

I'd rather a .458SOCOM cartridge if I want sheer killing power.

Except that a Terminator wouldn't be really affected by that, and a .50 BMG can knock one down. For a few seconds.

And if you want extreme killing power, get a 30-30/45-70 handgun.

Like the Magnum BFR. They claim it stands for Biggest, Finest Revolver, but I think that Big Fucking Revolver is much more accurate.
