Making Props for SF Movies

[ManiacallyChallenged]

Please keep trying with the XD's MPM. I would like to see more, but it really isn't that striking a design for viewers or directors.
Of course, I don't mind seeing P99s, and would like more. Even thought that thing is as wide as a Peterbuilt.

Can't blame them with the bullpup. Bullpup rifles are cool and sexy.

The new Taurus PT 45 looks kind of cool.

Were cool and sexy, before everyone realized what a pain in the ass they are to shoot.

Plus, directors, propmasters, etc. in the 1990s figured that all rifle designs in the future would be bullpups. Nobody would have thought that modularity and Picatinny rails would be the defining characteristics of guns in the early-21st century.

Yeah, Bullpups feel weird for me, and I read so many bad reviews.

Bullpups have a rep of triggers sucking pretty much universally. Balance is usually poor too. I heard FN has their act together though and the F2000 is known to balance well, it sure looks bulky though. Why do the triggers suck that bad? The fact most arent even close to ambidextrous doesn't help. (Kudos to FN for solving that

I've held the FN P90 and an FS2000, the P90 is small and really fits tight on your body. I wouldn't mind having something compact like that. The FS2000 which is the civi F2000 does feel real bulky. The butt end is a bit long for me. When I held an M4 again with it's stock position all the way back, it feels less on my shoulder. The F2000, if you compare trigger to trigger with an M4 or M16 has a stock that is a few inches more. If you got long arms, you wouldn't mind the length of the F2000, but if you got shorter arms like me, then it bothers you and tires the hell out of your arms.

The F2000 truly looks like it shoots death rays, but the Calico family will always be the most futuristic weapons.

I want a video game to present the Desert Eagle .50 very well.

You would pick it up off a table, and be told to go to the firing line to practice(first person).

You aim, and pull the trigger.
The gun would fire and the recoil would bring it straight into your face, knocking your character back on the ground. You would climb to your feet, and look at the gigantic piece of shiny paper weight in your hand, and exchange it for a Glock. Bonus points if it jammed after that one shot.

Well give it SOME credit, it would only knock you on your feet if you held it like a dumbass and it would jam eventually, but it wouldn't jam on the first shot. The Desert Eagle has been over-rated yes, but don't hate it for that. It isn't perfect, but it isn't quite useless.
