Identical: TR & NC Pistols

Tikuto · 2012-02-18, 08:20 AM

They are almost visually identical and I'm actually not so impressed by that...

TR Pistol

NC Pistol.

well you do know that most NC stuff is just gear stolen from the TR or looted from poor civilans, no doubt a few things will look similar

TR one has that nice, rich man's, leather grip though.

And overall looks better.

I'd rather have a belt-fed revolver though.

the NC gear is mostly looted and scavenged from where ever they can get it so id also expect a few similarity's. weapons of today are the same. some pistols from different countries look the same. doesn't bother me tbh. everything will look the same when we blow each other brains out and all we see is the darkness of death lol

Easy, broski; put those emo goth feelings away. There is no death on Auraxis.

Could make NC pistols into high caliber revolvers to give them a different look and feel.

Like the S&W TRR8 - 8 round .357 revolver with rails.

Granted, it's a bit ridiculous with all those attachments, but just because it's a revolver doesn't mean you can't put rails and accessories on it.

I've seen revolvers with built in rails under the barrel. They make scopes for hunting revolvers, don't see why they wouldn't make other top attachments.

The Smith&Wesson M&P R8, for instance. Although, I would want something more thematically appropriate looking...

Couldn't agree more.

That's actually the same revolver as the one I linked. The top rail is detachable on the R8 (used to be called the TRR8).

Revolvers for the NC could add a nice style to them. Though I don't think it's worth redoing the gun models and adding new animations for loading the cylinder.

And then there's the bit about how suppressors don't work well with revolvers. However, nanites...

True, the NC Pistol's barrel should be larger... 10 gauge at minimum.

Not any more similar then REAL pistols, I think the TR's is ugly and the NC is one of the most beautiful Pistols I have ever seen. I would like to find a way to MOD a real pistol to look like that.

Real Pistol similarity...H&K USP Pistol......SIG Pistol

SuperMorto · 2012-02-18, 09:22 AM

We need a gun dude in here to sort this shit out! Coreldan?.............

Most pistols look the same. In fact the pistol design has changed little since Mister John Q. Semiautomatic designed the semi-automatic. It has a barrel, a chamber, a trigger, and a pistol grip where the magazine is inserted.

Funny how that works.

It's called efficiency of design.

OMFG DID YOU KNOW MOST REVOLVERS LOOK ALMOST THE SAME TOO?!?!?

Yeah, most pistols look the same for the exact same reason that most cars look the same - I mean, they all have four wheels, two bright lights at the front and two red ones in the back...

On a side note though, why don't the NC have a revolver for our sidearm? Wouldn't this fit our "hit harder" philosophy?
