I love your weapon designs. Absolutely amazing.

Very nice concept

So in all honesty, what you have is actually a rocket gun.

In the US, civilians aren't even allowed fully automatic weapons, just semi-auto. The reasoning behind this is that a fully-auto gun with limiters could easily be modified so the limiters do didly squat. Plus, I think you got the wrong idea for a "gas operated gun". What a gas operated gun really does is it uses a little bit of the gases from the gun powder explosion to eject the spent shell and reload itself. Nice look for an paintball gun, though. It would probably give any user a massive advantage.

I love it. One comment else, change the wording of the rounds "fiery" to "Incendiary", which is the official terminology for a weapon round which causes fire or combustion upon impact.
Beautiful picture. I couldn't have done better. In fact, I don't think I could have done it at all.

nope. It was 60. I know, it's very slow firerate, but it's limited as civillivan weapon.

Is that fully automatic or semi? Because if it's semi then the user will be able to pull the trigger much faster than that.

It's full auto.
Fire rate is limited by goverment claims. Gun with firepower more than 80 units (M101A1 has 180, and Kalashnikov AK-47 7.62 has 135) must have limited firerate (68 rpm max).
But you can remove or tune electronic limiter to achive higher firerates.
Maximum expected firerate is 420rpm/7rps.

Nice design, but it needs a stock.
I like how you integrated the technical papers into the 3D. Brilliant.

My suggestion actually comes from paintball guns, if the cartridge is integral to the operation of the weapon, putting some sort of stock on there to shoulder it more securely would greatly increase the effectiveness of the weapon.
Grip looks like it would be fairly uncomfortable.
Take a look at handgun grips, you'll see that most of them are effectively straight, maybe with just a slight amount of palm swell. Very AR15 looking grip on this one, Tango Down, Ergo, and Magpul all make popular grips that are quite comfortable. That might give you some good ideas.
Final suggestion is the mag release would be better forward of the magazine (so you don't have to go around the magazine to release it for a reload). This is more of a HK type configuration. Or on the side of the weapon like on the AR15/M16. It's actually somewhat unsafe to have the magazine release near the trigger, especially if you use the same motion to release the magazine as you use to pull the trigger!
Good work. Don't see suggestions like that from me unless I already like what you've done.

You'd be surprised just how real that thing actually is. Rocket-powered bullets capable of use underwater and in space for handguns and rifles have been around since the 1960s. :3 [link]

You don't need rocket powered bullets for use in space. Just put a little atmosphere in a tube with a bullet capping it off, and let fly. It'll already have enough force to destroy it's target.

True, but the idea is that rocket-powered bullets CAN work in space. XD And underwater. They're just horrible at short-range.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They'd only be practical for the underwater bit...

We already have bullets for that though, some CIWS emplacements use them to fire on sea mines
