Bizarre-o fantasy guns?

[CountryGent]

Ever daydream about a totally impractical, never going to happen (mechanically, legally, or whatever), firearm, because, well, routine work, boredom, or good old mental masturbation? If so, do share!

A few that crossed my mind today whilst running systems tests on this dreary December day:

Number One
Picture a Lewis gun. Now shrink it down to carbine size and chamber it in .44 Magnum. Replace the cooling jacket with an integrated silencer. Retain the pan feed mechanism so it will run with rimmed cartridges.

Number Two
Picture a Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer. Now make it modern, stainless steel, in .357 Sig, with a 32-round magazine, and gorgeous wood furniture.

Number Three
A lever-action 40㎜ grenade launcher. Because, well, the mental image.

Number Four
A lever-action rifle chambered in something .50 that doesn't cost an insane amount of money. OK, that one was a bridge too far.

How 'bout you wacky friends?

Lever action 5.56 with AR mag that doesn't look horrendous?


Ambidextrous Side feed/eject PCC with wood and blued steel chambered in 10mm or 5.7 FN and doesn't cost an arm and leg

A M1C clone in 5.7 FN; probably has to be beefed up chamber and bolt due to pressures

Over/under .45-70 over 20ga combo gun thats not in the thousands of dollars

Super-duper small, Mauser-action in 5.7㎜. The 21 Century version of the Destroyer carbine produced in 9㎜ Largo.

[CountryGent]

A modern, full sized (really full), break-action, revolver in .577-caliber à la the Bland:



The .44 Magnum is great for questioning punks on their degree of luck, but a .577 dispenses with any such intellectual inquiry.

A Hotchkiss revolving cannon.

As seen here, essentially it's a cannon sized magazine fed Gatling gun....this is my #1 bucket list gun.

Hotchkiss Revolving Cannon

The Hotchkiss Revolving Cannon was designed by an American, Benjamin Hotchkiss, in response to the Franco-Prussian War.

In California it'd be an eleven shooter.

A Glock Pulse Rifle? My head would explode.

Oh and a reliable well made Kel-Tec.

Oh, I've got one. And by that I mean one that runs something fantastic. The rest, dumpster fire. I don't like those odds, so "nie wieder" on an further acquisitions.

 

[Red98422]

In California it'd be an eleven shooter.

That's the best part about it...technically speaking it falls under the antiques legal status and thus it is legal even in Kali....which is fantastic to say the least, a 37mm rapid fire cannon.

Oh man, now that one would be a fantasy alright! Man would that thing make for some fun times at the range!!!

Truth be told, I'm kinda bored with most guns these days. Oh, there's a submachine-gun coming once Los Federales finally approve the first step in the antics, and that will be good fun for both me and the woman. Until, well, enjoy as one can and day dream. It is all good friends, because the journey is such a delight.

Thompson 1928.....bullpup.

This is one of the coolest movie guns, and I'm not sure why. Surely there's many many more that are more powerful. Or really cool. But the Blade Runner handgun carried by Rick Deckard has fascinated me since I was a kid. It's built on a Rossi Bulldog .44 frame, with a .22 rifle bolt action on top. It's huge and heavy and completely impractical, and presumably MUST fire some futuristic cartridges. I cannot imagine why you'd bother with a single bold action firing out of a 1-2" "barrel" on top of that contraption. Or the massive framed gun holding so few rounds. But it is really really cool ...

The original prop sold recently at auction for * cough cough * $270,000...

A few other fun cinema guns include:

* Ole' painless, from Predator. The portable mini gun carried mainly by Blain, played by Jesse Ventura.
* The heavy machine or plasma gun fired by the Terminator infiltrator in the underground bunker, during Reese's nightmare in T1.


* The plasma rifles seen carried by the Terminators in T1 or T2 in the futuristic scenes.

* Aliens space Marines weapons, 10mm caseless AP rounds with grenade launcher.

* Aliens M56 smart gun carried by space Marines Vasquez and Drake.
