well i was hoping for the Deagle but meh .45 colt is a great gun

he's dead. i will definetly kill him for it,..[censored] with it for a bit, then revert back to a previous save, and be friends with him again. maybe.

Correct me if I'm wrong but the Desert Eagle is made in Israel right? So in the Fallout world I don't see how that gets to America, especially since the Middle East was torn to shreds in the fight for fossil fuels and oil before the Great War. They could add it it just wouldn't make any sense how it got there...

If there is going to be Colt M1911 in the game they have to be .45 cal. Anyhing else is crap. With .45cal in the game we can also have the Tommy Gun. Never fired a Tommy Gun but I have fired Colt M1911 many times and it is great. :fallout:

The war takes place in 2077. That's plenty of time for the US to import them.

if they were there before the great war, they would most likely be there afterwards, just like most of the weapons in the game.

Deagle was designed by IMI and yes you are rigth t's an Israelie gun but it's produced by Magnum now(i think) so it's not verry farfetched i think allso it was in the original games

Ah. Thank you for clarifying

More guns = more awesomeness.

I'm aware. But the Fallout world is different, it seems Americans in Fallout only used American weapons. I just think it's weird that you would have all these weapons made in America and then you find an Israeli handgun. I'm not saying it isn't possible: [Searching a town, find a place where Israeli immigrants were living, find Desert eagle in safe]
It just doesn't seem likely the U.S. would import them for combat.



same reasons above.

Edit: about the 9mm and M1911 confusion, J.E. Sawyer clarified on his http://www.formspring.me/JESawyer that it's NOT a 9mm.

Differences between M1911 and 9mm Pistol:
Trigger Shape and Where the Trigger is
Shape and Color of Hammer
Front Sight
Shape and Color of Grip
Screws in the M1911's Grip
Format
Looks
Design
Cartridge

Push through safty, hammer lock due to .45 being double action & Hi-power being single action.

Wooo! I hope there is a unique version.

Should they make a new round? 10mm is a bit shy of .45 (about .40). I'll let that slide though, as long as they give it adequate power.



1. The Springfield M1903 is a WWI weapon.
2. So is the M1911....
3. It'd make sense if they do add a .45ACP round to add another gun that uses it.
4. And why not WWI/WWII Era weapons?

Why not have a M1928 Thompson without the drum mag and front grip, those will be available as weapon mods(just like in medal of honor airborne)

yea, i think there's old pics of general patton holding a M1911. (in real life)

But ww2 weapons are so last century .

Haha yahh WW2 comes back with a vengance YAH!! :flamethrower:

The M1911 and Browning Hi-Power are both single-action.


10mm Auto is, in most loadings, more powerful than .45 ACP.

Perhaps this article pretty understand about this gun: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1911_pistol


Is this why add in HH?

Ok? It's been used in a lot of wars (WWI, WWII, Vietnam, Korean). But it was deployed for standard use in 1911, making it a WW1 Era weapon (actually a bit earlier)

ok? yes,i was agreeing with someone, who was correcting someone else.

My bad i always thought the .45 was DA??
I did carry the Hi-power for 13 yrs though so all my time was with it. Only fired the .45 a few times out here on the range.

Edit. Just rang my mate his is a Para Ord clone which is DA. Knew the one i fired was DA.

Browning designs or designs using Browning patented desgin details confirmed in the game: M1911, Hi-Power, M1918 BAR, Semi-auto shotgun (long recoil), Lever-aciton Shotgun, Superposed (over/under) shotgun, Trail Carbine, Pump-action shotgun and quite possibly even the varmint rifle, since it was oringally in .22LR.


No. :blush2: Less barrel = less velocity = less energy = less force abailable to transfer to target.


Yes. :icecream: More barrel = more velocity = more energy = more force available to transfet to target.


As it should.


As explained elsewhere, shotguns work differently than solid bullet weapons. Short barrel on shotgun = more spread = more area penetrated. Short barrel on rifle/pistol = less velocity, blah, blah, blah. I think you guys get the idea.


As stated above, trigger, safeties, hammer, grip, slide, frame. To someone who is familiar with both weapons, they look nothing alike. The most noticable difference, for a layman would be the necked down slide at the front near the muzzle on the Hi-Power. The M1911 does not have this machined area, but rather the slide is the same width for the entire length of the weapon. This is easily seen, since most of the M1911s in the screenshot are laying on their side and you can see the entire top of the slide. Now look at the 9mm, from the top looking down. You will see where the muzzle end is thinner for the last coupla inches.

-Gunny out.

Oh, sorry. My mistake.

Other Fallouts have had .45 ACP ammo. Even if 10mm is more powerful than .45 ACP, I still don't see that as a reason not to include .45 ACP ammo. I really enjoy Colt M1911. I also like having the thompsons sub machine gun in Fallout. It was in Fallout 2 and Tactics. Fallout 2 had both the 10mm and .45 so I don't see why Fallout New Vegas can't.

Fallout New Vegas also has .50 cal ammo which I am really happy was added but it is only for one weapon. At least .45 cal can be for two weapons. Unless you are going to add a browning .50cal machine gun :woot:

12.7mm is a 50caliber round. It's just that it's pistol ammo so it's used in a pistol and SMG, while the 50MG is rifle ammo. Ma' Duce would be a hell of a weapon. Not sure if it's plausible to have one unless it's hip mounted like the mini-gun.
