next possible 1/1 scale firearm

[nothing]

the xm8 is undergoing feild trials now as possible replacement to the m16. the same people also made a 40 mm grenade launcher that looks similar in design that is being feilded now.

I'll be voting for the '34. followed by the '44 or '42.

If you wanna do another 19th centry design, a Colt-Walker revolver would be impressive

[treadhead1952]

MG 34, MG 34, if only for the trick mounting possibilities.

Is there any chance of a Winchester 1873 '1 in 1000' maybe?.... how difficult would it be to make the under lever actually work?

[ltla9000311]

I vote for the mg42. I am biased, I actually got get behind one of those on full auto! That was something I will never forget! I need one to mount on my wall.........maybe a pair flanking the door on the way out......

[mousemuffins]

Well, the MG42 could also be used as a basis for the M56 smart-gun from aliens...

(still voting for the MG 34 though.)

johnl- what year? makes a big difference.

malc- definately.notsure about the lever id have to study it.

mousemufins1- the mg 34 could be the basis for a stormtrooper gun (not the one based on the sten)

I think you should do the MG34, it looks good on the tripod!!
