chrisinnyshotgun Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 I'm well aware of the various types of gyrojet-type weapons avaliable, but I haven't seen any based on the real world Gyrojet designs. I was wondering if someone would make at least the Gyrojet pistol. Wikipedia link for the history - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyrojet Image Links for Pistol http://world.guns.ru/userfiles/images/handguns/usa/1/1287739508.jpg (real life example) http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6018/5970091422_6663dd4b44.jpg (fictional example, but better looking design for FO world, in my opinion) http://www.deactivated-guns.co.uk/images/Gyrojet/Gyrojet-12.jpg (silver model of real one) http://www.ammo-one.com/Gyrojetcartridges.jpg (image of several Gyrojet rounds, in case you HAVE to make it as accurate as humanly possible) While I'm not one of those "IT MUST BE LORE FRIENDLY!!!!" types, it DOES have the ability of being somewhat lore friendly at the least, as the real weapon was developed in the 1960's and the divergence between our world and the Fallout world happened sometime between 1945 and 1961, though the article over at The Vault (fallout.wikia.com) does say there still a few similiarities between our world and the Fallout world, even after the assumed 1945-1961 divergence, such as the "pro-peace" and "hippie" slogans found at Hidden Valley. The point I'm trying to make is that even if the real weapon was developed after the fallout world's divergence, the timeframe is still close enough to justify it being, at least, lore-possible.

minngarm Posted August 28, 2011 Share Posted August 28, 2011 Im not sure how youd get the Gyrojet physics to work right, the round would have to become more lethal at range, and start out at the speed of a plasma projectile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sindrie Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 dont the Gyrojet use explosive tips also, so couldnt you use mini fast flying missles, maybe there not explosive maybe i'm playing to much warhammer40k lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
