As a matter of note: We had one full thread about weapon discussion and we have another one going. So if you really want to contribute, check those for already considered weapons.

I'm not trying to repudiate your work, because you do an amazing job at maintaining that list. I just felt to point out those threads in this topic as well, because they include a lot of discussion already, which will happen in this thread again, very likely.

And for gun-talk, people should rather use those, I think.

Thanks shadow, definitely makes life easier.

I didn't realise the Gerund was an M14 look-a-like... but I totally see it now! Gonna have to get me one of those. :drool: I also loved the SCAR-H in MAG, might have to use the Rockstedi a bit too.

Nice Job Shadow, the carb 9 is a rifle carbine in 9mm, the "Kolt" looks like a derivative of a 1911 copy with a rail. i would guess a mix of the sig 1911 and the Springfield TRP but in the commander length, the suppressor in the picture on the "Kolt" is a http://www.knightarmco.com/images/suppressors_last_18.jpg (though that is a M4 suppressor, the Kolt's suppressors have the KAC's dimples)

if you are talking IRL that TROY M14 MCS will run you around 2800 for the scout model with the Troy MCS stock if you can get the M1A for two grand.

if you are talking in game, i would hope it is one of the earlier unlocks as the M14 weapon systems is one of my favorites.

In-game... not sure how legal, if at all, it would be to own one in New Zealand. :confused:

I <3'd my M14 in MAG... it was my baby. My deadly, deadly baby.

I agree with you that the Kolt is obviously an M1911 variant of some sort; made obvious by the type of trigger, hook under the hammer, and the name. But I'm just not seeing anything out there that looks even close. I think this may be one of the few weapons that they got a little more creative with to differentiate it from all the other 1911's out there.

The curved grip alone is enough for me to assume we will never find an exact match. The only other weapons that aren't nearly an exact match for its look-a-like is the SU-16 and M134 though. (With the M134 for obvious reasons)

But then again, it could just be an M1911 based weapon that none of us have found yet. The Gerund, for example, is a look-a-like of the M14, but is named after the M1 Garand that the M14 was based off of.

i looked at your guys laws at wikipedia, it seems possible, just need to get a Firearm License, pay a little extra and be willing to answer extra security questions, then have a police official sign off on an order (if mail ordering a rifle) then you can have your metal death stick.

or you could get a gas blow back airsoft version.

Why not call it the Seagull?

I find it very impressive how Splash Damage did this. I thought the name "Galactic SMG" was pretty terrible, until I finally noted that the UMP45's full name is the Universal Machine PIstol, and both Galactic and Universal describe regions in space. That was really clever.

This is an impressive thread, but I don't understand the point of it. The guns in Brink are inspired by real guns, but Brink is a very stylized game.

Mostly to get an idea of what to expect out of the weapons. Sure, it doesn't really mean anything and they can make the guns act any way they want, but I imagine that they chose weapons that acted the way they wanted not the other way around.

For example, the Gerund AR is based off of the m14, so it is likely a semi-auto weapon. Likewise the FRKN-3K may have the option to use 3-burst.

Many players are bummed that the game doesn't have an AK-47 based weapon, but the Rokstedi (based on the SCAR H) will probably have a similar role, since it uses the same round.

The Hjammerdeim is likely has 8, 12, or even 16 shell magazine; which could help to explain why it is a Heavy Weapon. Its also possible that the larger magazines are an attachment.

The CARB-9 is actually based off of a civilian rifle rather than an SMG, so its reasonable to assume that it has better range than other SMGs. There's also the fact that the term "Carbine" describes a rifle with a short barrel.

"It"?

Anyhoo, here is some fun facts for you about the weapon names:
