Calico Weapon System

[Krossviper]

A very odd looking familiy of weapons: M900s

 

Varying from carbines to pistols, from submachine guns to something resembling a sniper rifle.

 

With very futuristic aesthetic which I feel could be completely in the Fallout universe, chambered in pistol-ammunition, could be a decent early to mid game addition.

 

Personally I think it could what was thought about the vanilla combat rifle, a standarized frame for many situations (cqb, long-range, mid-range).

And it doesn't need to stop there: the M900s (above) could be merged with the M100s

Since Fallout isn't the real world, and even these mergings have more sense than the freaking combat rifle-shotgun abomination (the rifle part) in vanilla.

 

Ideally chambered in either .38 or 10mm, could be used in .45 or even rifle rounds for sniper/combat rifle purposes.

 

Ever since I saw this gun I thought of Fallout, so might as well share it, who knows, perhaps someone might try to do something.

Animations for this should be brand new, I suppose. That could be a pain, as I understand.

If this weapon is already proposed, well, sorry I didn't see it, I will take this thread out.

 

I don't own the images or the weapons. In fact, I don't know how to make the images show up at all, derp.

@krossviper

thanks for sharing these forgotten implements,

they've not even been on Ian's Forgotten Weapons, so

they're as rare as anything.

 

it might be possible to make a mockup with Any Mod Any Weapon,

though this'd be great as a weapons parts pack too.

 

 

 

these are an actual thing, so that's awesome!

 

it looks interesting,

these look a little like an AR15 or M16 short stroke etc.

there's hints of Stoner and M60 in there too (the skeletonized prototype M60/m58b)

it looks to have been a modular concept,

a little like the keltec sub 2000 or H&K and Arsenal uppers.

they're also a little similar to

FN P90 a little...

 

is it a side-stack, or are those 'tubular magazines"?

 

yet, it also looks like the 10mm from fallout,

and the real world integrally suppressed SIG/SilencerCo 10mm from shotshow.

and, prior fallout implements too,

so, it's a really neat find that ties a lot of stuff together.

 

that m-100P/m110 looks a lot like a TMP phaser

 

EDIT:

someone recently proposed a XM29 SABR/CICW also...

take a look at that, and tell me,

if it doesn't look like a butchered FAMAS2000 with an MPL or MPK-zmk5

or, like one of the recent pattern new production calico's with a Steyr Bullpup on the back.

 

now that's a 2-in-1!

a calico version of something like that,

but with the 'over' as a lepage or serbu 4 gauge shotgun would be very interesting,

for a bean-bag round dispenser rig.

 

a calico would be alright, if it had something more like the lancaster-style

or arsenal style revolving striker system,

and a better feedramp, and could fix those timing errors, so you can't outrun it.

Those are tubular mags, just like the PP19.

And yeah, one look at this thing and can see resemblances to other weapons all over the place, which I think is cool; can be explained as experimentation based on previous models of weapons in the lore.

A thing that came to mind is the different magazine sizes could have different ideal roles: short better for pistols/snipers, medium better for smgs/carbines and large for assault rifle/lmg for example. (even though I think there's only two sizes)

And yeah, lol, the m110 looks like a phaser.

Very cool looking weapons that suffered from one problem, they were so poorly made, they hardly ever function properly!
