Shotgunner Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I read the topic "DE-50 Blaster Pistol" and I was intruged by it. One of those who commented said that common and "famous" weapons, like the Desert Eagle, were not a good idea as they would not have as much as a "Star Wars" feel as lesser known weapons. Well, I have a mod request that is also a challenge. The weapon in question is the Gyrojet Pistol. It was a short lived experimental project that also developed a carbine and rifle. In the 9 years they were produced, only 1,000 of them were made. http://gungallery.euweb.cz/Pict/Gyrojet.jpg Several images can also be found at: http://www.deactivated-guns.co.uk/detail/Gyrojet_Pistol.htm As I stated in the title, this mod request can be fufilled in either K1 or TSL, although I would perfer it work for both games. So.......anyone up to this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oddball_E8 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 thats actually a decent idea... but IIRC there is already something like this in the starwars universe... check out wookiepedia for it... search for rocket weapons and such... (or dart weapons possibly) cant be bothered to do it myself tho hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Payne Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Are you thinking about the wrist launcher from K2? A wrist mounted weapon that could launch both rocket and grenades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oddball_E8 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 yeah... thought there were others, but that was only from one of the roleplayinggames sourcebooks... wonderful technologies or something like that... worth checking out anyway tho... on the other hand... just inventing a credible name and manufacturer would work nicely with this...

Shotgunner Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 I wish I knew more about the star wars universe.... As for my idea, it just popped into my head as a design for a new blaster after reading the DE-50 Blaster topic. The design, when scaled down, would look a lot more like a futuristic pistol than the Desert Eagle..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Payne Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 True, the DE does not look much like an SW blaster. However, properly modified and skinned, it Does look like a blaster. That was my idea behind my DE-50 thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgunner Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 true, very true, but one could still tell it was based off of a "modren" firearm. To be fair, I guess the same could apply to the Gyrojet Pistol. I have a pretty good intrest in firearms of all kinds, so maybe I can find one that is completely off the wall, design style...I owuld suggest the H&K G11 caseless rifle, but that has seen quite a few movies and books...also too plan looking - a grey rectangle with a handle and scope... Hmm.....got an idea. Give me a little time to do a little research to see if it was a rare weapon, like the Gyrojet weapons were..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Payne Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 What about these two? Based on two pre-existing weapons. A P90 mod: http://s275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Danyael27/?action=view¤t=FNP90MOD.jpg And one i am not quite sure on. I last saw this one in the movie STEALTH. I also have an un modded pic of it, somewhere. http://s275.photobucket.com/albums/jj306/Danyael27/?action=view¤t=071024.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgunner Posted December 19, 2007 Author Share Posted December 19, 2007 A looks like a modified H&H PDW7 which fires a 4.7mm round, while B looks like the same but with the folding forgrip folded under the barrel and a silencer attached... as for the p90 image, that is also a modified weapon, but THAT design almost looks good enough to mod in as a blaster... WHOOPS! LOL forgot what forum I was on. But the unmodified weapon, which I'm sure I can find an image of, would work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthriddick Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Both look awesome, but the P90 was used in Stargate, and it might be kinda odd in the the St universe. The second one would be Perfect in the Kotor game(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oddball_E8 Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 id suggest (like i did in the DE thread) to look at some of the weapons at http://world.guns.ru/main-e.htm mainly the russian ones since they are the most uncommon ones... heres a real nice one thats not in those pages tho (and is what ive based my tramp freighters heavy blaster on in the RPG): http://www.rbgunsandstuff.com/images/inventory/plr16b.jpg http://discountgundealer.com/images/P2D41-1.jpg theres a pic out there somewhere with a scope mounted on it... thats the version im using in the RPG EDIT: aah... there we go http://www.impactguns.com/store/media/kel_plr_wacc.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgunner Posted December 20, 2007 Author Share Posted December 20, 2007 After reading some of the Star Wars novels, I learned that some areas still use "slugthrowers" - esentially the same guns we use today. Now I can understand some weapons from modren day being modded in, but still, but still..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
