I'd hesitate to call this "tacticlol". A gun that ridiculous, with the two optics mounted like that, is probably a pure-competition AR like the airbrushed-grip 1911s we see posted.

I'd say no and no. The Valmet(?) has a minimum amount of custom stuff (Optic and flashlight), and the AR is definitely a competition gun. To be truly tacticlol, the gun must have been assembled/customized to satisfy the owner's fantasy of being a badass operator.

You're going to spend around $300,000 on the smartgun all told. The steadicam arm alone is $60k+

However.

I wonder if you could fit a 10/22 and a 12ga flare gun into the airsoft chassis of these.

Edit: Well I guess you couldn't disguise a flare gun as that 870 bolt and it wouldn't be worth a Form 1.

I was thinking more along the lines of the open magazine just asking for the thing to gently caress up.

This thing is actually pretty cool. I saw a video about it, and while it seems totally ridiculous in any normal tactical situation, the guy designed it specifically for use with extreme close-range urban fighting in lovely 3rd world countries etc.

Its meant for the sort of place where you cant even have two guys standing side-by-side because its so tight.

It would take a lot of practice to be good with it, because one of the features is that you can quickly snap between the different angles.

Dunno if I would want to use it, but it seems like it could have its place.

Not sure how I feel about that. On the one hand, I can imagine that not being very promising in wet weather, or if you're running for your life from through mud or whatever...

Then I think, my Makarov has open magazines, but they sit in the grip, covered.

Yeah... You're right... the open magazine, on second thought, is probably not a terribly good idea, but at least you dont have to count your shots... "Oh look, no more red... I'm hosed"

American planes, full of holes and wounded men, took off backwards from an airfield in England. Over France, a few German fighter planes flew at them backwards, sucked bullets and shell fragments from some of the planes and crewmen. They did the same for wrecked American bombers on the ground.

Dude, those things were DESIGNED FOR WW1 TRENCH FIGHTING. And somehow they neglected to remember that there was going to be mud and dirt?!?

The open mags sides would let all manner of dirt and mug get in the mags. On the off chance that this didn't cause the springs and follower to just say "gently caress you" and knock off for a cig then you had dirty casings.

The Chauchaut, in addition to all its other problems, was a finnicky bitch that needed to be kept hyper-clean inernally to function. Too much fouling from powder would cause it to jam.

I bet you can imagine how it reacted to grit and mud inside the chamber, deposited from muddy, dirty bullets.

I saw an interview with an old American first world war vet once. It was fairly recent (mid 90s?) - at any rate the guy was something like 98 years old. He was asked about the Chauchaut and if it was really as horrible as everyone said it was.

His comment was something along these lines: "It was a terrible gun, absolutely horrible. We all liked getting issued them, though, since you could break it down and make a half decent still out of its parts and a few old kettles."

It was a gun that people preferred to make trench hooch with rather than use in combat, and this in a war where a fully auto LMG was about the most badassed thing you could possibly want.
