Mateba "earth Shaker"

Burncycle

<div class="IPBDescription">in 7.62 x 39</div> I saw this lil gun on one of those cyberpunk webpages, I thought I'd give it a shot.

In cyberpunk, this shoots ".357 ultramax" but I thought that was boring, so now it shoots 7.62 x 39. I know it's not rimmed so I dunno how it works, but bear with me anyway <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

It probably doesn't fit in the NS theme, since it's a 3 shot revolver, but I thought I'd show you guys anyway

Oh i'd love to blast a gorge with that baby, but it'd be pretty hard to animate a 3 bullet revolver for a 10 bullet clip >_>;;

maybe the anim could throw the gun on the third shot and start firing another gun...

i don't know how you would do the 10th bullet ~,~

Mateba....I'm sure this is the revolver used in Ghost in the Shell, the movie not Stand Alone Complex (haven't seen that one yet) I'll wait on Sheena's word on it, no time to go boot up meh DVD right now and check, but I'm sure it was the one that the "human" dude that was working with Major Katsuragi insisted on using, instead of semi-autos. I think. Didn't know it was a 3-shot, that's weird. Looks nice though, you could....like.......er.........okay I'm lost on how you would make it fit for the NS pistol....ah screw it, I'm sticking with meh Seburo Compact anyways.

nope.. you mean the mateba model 207 handgun from gits...
this strange revolver, built sometime in the 1990s, is togusa's weapon of choice. It is chambered for the 9mm parabellum cartridge and it's six round cylinder is hinged at the top of the frame rather than the bottom. the M207's hexagonal barrel is lined up with the bottom-most chamber for greater accuracy and the weapon's strange design is counter-balanced by a top mounted weight. It should be noted that the mateba's greatest feature is its accuracy. unfortunately, it is not as quick or as high powered as most automatics. additionally, its design causes problems with loading, making it less than an ideal choice in situations where a lot of ammo is being expended. features ergonomic grips and interchangeable barrels.

:edit: whoops.. forgot a pic

Chrono

ok i tried modeling that hand gun and i failed misserably its just got too much detail and i dont have enought experience can anyone out there model it animate it and skin it too? it realy looks nice and i wouldnt mind having it as a pistol replacement and it doesnt have to be a 6 shot revolver it can be a 10 shot revolver =)

i mean sheenas picture not burncycles pistol

Katsuro

Id rather have the hellbringer in 13mm UltraMax myself.

As for the Mateba, its not as fake as most people seem to think. The Mateba is a real revolver, made in Italy, and uses the unique "autorevolver" action. When the trigger is depressed, the cartidge fires and the recoil drives the upper portion of the gun backwards, rotating the cylinder, and cocking the hammer. The barrel aligns with the bottom chamber of the cylinder, rather than the top, contributing to greater accuracy. It is to be noted that the cylinder opens downward in the normal fashion, rather than upward, as seen in GITS.

The gun has interchangable barrels, and is chambered for several calibres including .357mag, .44mag, and .454 casull.

It's one of my favorite guns now I think, my first revolver, and I'm kinda in the 7.62 x 39mm mood lately because I'm going to be receiving a Yugoslavian M59/66 SKS soon <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

not the recoil.. its the gas pressure...
and i would call it "semi-auto revolver" a veryfast construction for a revolver... brings in the best parts of gas loader pistols and double action revolvers
when you fire the gun a part of the combustion gases getting through a tiny hole in the barell to the gas piston inside the upper frame of the barell, the gas is pushing the piston and the connected guiding rod backwards.that spins the drum,and cocking the hammer,after that the piston spring brings the piston back in the front position for the next shot..

the round gets fired from the lower chamber to prevent that the gun breaks out upwards while firing,additional counterwheights can compensate that effect even more.. a very balanced system

omg she said **** <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

I only remember one old revolver that actually slides, I think it was french

Chrono, that's an optical illusion, milkshape exaggerates perspective I think. The round isn't actually longer than the cylinder, it's just slightly shorter atually
