Gatling gun

However for coolness I'd go for dual barrettas or kung fu

What's with you people and berettas? They are so...GENERIC. Semi-durable and accurate, yes. But there are much better handguns out there...

They are comfortable to hold and such, as for the firing part...? I found the kickback much worse than your standard 9mm (baretta, lol). I guess I shouldn't talk, after shooting a .50 DE, your wrist falls off. Lol.

I was under the impression that Barettas were known for being unreliable.

from what i hear they are very reliable. The Italians build 'em. They're pretty good at building guns and cars. Check out the Pirazzi site. Some beautiful guns there.

i like the look of Sig pistols. Just, this in at least black or nickel plated.
also this, the p226, passed almost equal with the beretta in the XM9 pistol trials to find the successor of the Colt 1911. And the p226 has been adopted as the official sidearm of the SEALs. comes in 9mm, .357, and .40SW

Berettas are pretty reliable. More than most, but no comparison to a P-99. On a scale of 5, I'd give them a 4 (for reliability). All in all, they really are pretty good guns, I just think they are so generic. Whenever non gun-fanatics think/hear "handgun", they get a picture of a baretta in their mind. It's just what has been projected through movies. I don't like their overuse.

.45's more reliable. i don't know why they don't use it more in movies.

No, when a non-gun-knowledgable person hears different words they bring different images to mind:

Pistol:
A pistol, no specific type, there isn't a whole lot of major shape difference. Major difference would be like an AK compared to an M16.

Assault Weapon:
If they're dumbfucks, they think of bazookas. Otherwise, they think of a rifle, no particular type, just a mixture of all the guns they've seen, unless one was imprinted on their mind well.

Sniper rifle:
See above, but with a scope on it.

Submachine gun:
An MP5 with laser sights on it, like morpheus has in Matrix Revolutions. That or an Uzi.

i think both the L85A1 and A2 have each had their fair shair of annoyances but are both very accurate in terms of mass-produced assault rifles.

btw are those gun models from RvS?
