Have you ever want to design a gun, /k/?
>>
Seems like diminishing returns. There’s no more heroes. Only committee
>>
I want a revolver with a barrel at 6 o'clock that isn't a Rhino.
>>
i don't know how gun works but I'd like to see RGB lighting effects when you shoot it
>>
>>65332394
Its very fun as someone with no engineering background and no idea how firearms are supposed to work
I keep coming back to a "revolver" with a ringshaped cylinder you have to put your hand inside of like megaman

Yeah. Enough to go through university and become a firearms designer.
>>
>>65332894
That's nice. Can you show us the guns you designed?
>>
>>65332895
My job is mostly calculations on machining tolerances.
I did some work on the CZ P10, obviously can't share it here lol.

I see. I guess it's impossible to be like John Browning in this day and age.

>universal compensator
>externally attached, does not impede barrel or pressure/back blast
I know glock has a few versions but that's glock. We want a (firing muh) laizorr too.
>>
I want to get a job at Kel-Tec, do a bunch of blow, and design shit like a lever action 40mm to fire hornets nest rounds, fed from a P90 style mag
>>
>>65332923
Sad, really.
When was the last time someone did something truly revolutionary about small arms? Glock?
>>
>>65332394
I would love to make some weird shit just to see if it works like a gas-delayed blowback rifle with a huge piston to counter the chamber pressure.
>>
>>65332915
You have to go the Accuracy International route and start your own business.

no I just want to own an AR forever, call other designs shit and if you disagree you are a third worlder
>>
>>65332394
Lookswise yes, but I'm the kind of shooter to whom guns are basically black boxes outside knowing how to field strip them and make them go bang

>>65332887
cool.

>>65332394
I design many things and most of them are garbage, but some I consider truly amazing. Nothing ever gets built of course. It's just things I think about.
Recent weapon ideas:
>Plastic gun for firing ~50cal rocket ammunition. Such weapon would have awesome power in a lightweight package as long as fewer than 50 rounds are carried. Recoil and noise is low but ballistics weird. Very situational.
>Light gas gun using an explosively expanded metal sphere inside a gas filled spherical chamber as a sort of a 'spherical recoilless piston' for gas compression. I love it.
>Anti-tank rifle with J-shaped ammunition singly loaded attached to a locking bolt, which could also be the gun's buttstock. This gun would be as short as possible with more weight in the rear to accomodate longer barrel. Not super useful tho.
>>
>>65332394
I want to design a gun that uses an easy to follow template, hardware store components, a drill press, and a dremel.
the main housing will be a C-channel, and a pair of 2x4s glued and clamped together before being cut out into the receiver. it will be SBB so limited to .380ACP, the bolt will be made with stacked washers soldered together.
>>
>>65332394
I have an extremely basic list of specifications but no real engineering, machining, or mechanical knowledge to back up the idea. The rough specs are as follow;
>16-ish inches overall
>.410 bore
>magazine fed
>straight blowback
>bullpup
>semi-automatic
The idea is basically just an extremely goofy pdw, but it's one I think about often nonetheless.

I I could stop procrasturbaiting, I would like to teach myself FreeCAD. Got some ideas in my head I would like to sketch out.

I do, but I wanted to have a company that makes the worst ideas, like an AK that takes Vz58 mags, or a Winchester 70 chambered in .22LR, except its not scaled down & the feed position is as far back as possible, uncontrolled feed of course. I had a bunch of awful ideas, I shouldve written them down.
>>
>>65332394
No. I'm retarded and have difficulty grasping simple material science concepts, so anything I did design would just be derivative and generic.
>>
I'm designing a break action double barrel underwater rifle chambered in specialty .308 which utilize long tungsten spikes as ammunition. With an optional fold out bang stick adapter "bayonet".

For shark defense and big pelagic fishing.
>>
I want to build this. I don't know how it would work, but I want to do it.
>>
>>65332394
Starting a gun company and yoinking all the big procurement contracts has always been a pie in the sky dream of mine, though I doubt it'll ever go anywhere. Not exactly sure what I'd make, rifles are already figured out and the handgun procurement/market abhores anything not povertyfag 9mm poly-strikerslop about as much as I hate that pansy ass caliber.

A break-open .357 magnum revolver that isn't total unobtanium would be a cool I think.

anon wants to make the "2000s action video game cutscene pistol" real

>>65332394
>folding stock
>double barrel (side by side)
>integrally suppressed
>built in 2x red dot
>10mm auto
ships with two sets of barrels, 8" and 21"
>>
I want to make single shot, itegrally supressed, bullpup 22s but I'm not capable of replicating the pure sex that is Italian styling.

I already did. Here is a pic of a 12 gauge blowback i designed
I also designed a bolt-action version but the blowback is much cooler and simpler too.
I am currently in the process of designing a small single shot 12 gauge that gets cocked as you pull the trigger (similar to a revolver) as well as 44 magnum blowback
