Firearms Inspiration

[FrankManic]

Hey folks. Here are a bunch of links I've scrounged up to provide inspiration for new Fallout weapons. Some of them are weird, some of them are ugly, and some of them are more dangerous to their user than their target. Some are all three. Enjoy!

A gun blog full of guns. Also dead foxes, pheasants. Not as bloody as Fallout, but some people are bothered by that.

well there are some Cool ones! but their are some WEIRD!! :D

Would love to see someone do the barrett Sniper rifle with enhanced optics allowing you to see and shoot farther than most sniper rifles. I mean really, what could be more fun than hunting the deathclaw with the big .50?

 

Shotguns, shotguns, and more shotguns!

I've tried 2 different mods for the combat shotgun, neither worked (or I screwed up)

Besides what I really want is a nice 6 shot Remington 870 Pump gun!

 

Add to that a Winchester Model 12, perhaps a nice Browning high back auto. You get my drift.

 

There is a glut of bigger boom gun mods out for F3.

 

Would love to see more large caliber historical guns.

 

There are tons of classic 30-30 winchester lever actions in the USA.

Loads of 30-06, .308, and .270 scoped hunting rifles.

 

Another would be a nice scoped .22 for headshooting radroaches and Molerats.

Ok that might be a little undergunned but you see my point. :)

 

Even a classic Double barrel Elephant gun, several calibers to choose from.

Take your pick.

 

Military weapons have been done to death, but the Civilian side is stuck with a bolt action slow firing hunting rifle. How many combat shotguns have you seen on the streets?

Compare that with the vast number of pump and auto shotguns carried by LEO's, not to mention those owned by hunters and sport shooters.

 

And btw the pump shotguns should be able to fire more than 1 round per second also.

If you don't agree come on up to North Dakota and I'll show you. :)
