Downloads: 2 Uploads: 0  | Star trek Projectile Weapon Star trek Projectile Weapon Following on from the Sniper rifle that was seen in Deep Space nine i have been asked to create a Trek Carbine. This is it, it is based on the SA080, M4 Carbine and the Tavor. It is just over 51cm from butt to tip, the barrel extends almost the length of the weapon and the ejection port is near the back as is the magazine. The idea is that as the round ejects the rifle if not pushed of target (much) and the shorter weapons allows for better control. The oval is the heat discharge this mean that the weapon cools down mush faster and is less prone to jamming. I did toy with the idea of have a top loaded Mag like the P90 but not sure about that at the moment, maybe for the next one. The Magazine is one of two, it is either just like a real one with so many rounds, or it has a micro replocater with a small battery that can recreate 50 rounds before needing to be replaced (hence the magazine) Let me know what ya think..

Downloads: 0 Uploads: 1 | Hmm, i'm not exactly a fan of Trek but there's something about that weapon that just screams..... Unwieldy. For one. It has a foregrip, and is has a bullpup style magazine, this is not conducive to quick reloading. Or efficient. The large "oval" doesn't fit the weapons appearance. And the underbarrel weapon looks very heavy compared to the rest.... |

If Starfleet were using some kind of projectile weapons they would be EM based and there would be no need for propellents or cartridges to contain the propellents. A projectile weapon should be a standard weapon for all Starships incase they are in a environment that renders Phaser weapons useless. Keep up the good work and keep those updates coming on this project!  |

As for the desgin... um... kinda messed up, i have all my scales wrong, i was using 1/2 for the Di of the barrel but 2/1 for the length... so it looks out of wack... working on it now... This is a P90 ish type weapon, i am going to rework this as well but i think i will keep the basic desgin. Matt | |

Downloads: 0 Uploads: 0 | Hey, cool designs and all that, they're pretty good, and with some work they'd be great. Just one thing i noticed, the stock on the rifle is WAY to long. Any person trying to fire it would just barley reach the pistol grip if they had the stock up against the shoulder, nevermind that fore grip or magazine. Alos, those scopes are way to far forward to be of any real use to some one using them, they should be a bit farther back above that oval heat thing. It has the makings of a good rifle design, except for a few small things, but once those have been ironed out, it will be a good rifle and it will also look good. |
