Comments
1) No round clip thing.
2) Nice and beefy, the pictures make it look weak.
3) No front grip.
The helical magazine however isn't a bad idea, especially for a HMG. My budget arms 6mm uses one
Oh, and...

awesome gun, but im thinking the v_model for it would be pretty bland and chunky.
this is why there aren't that many HMG models... hard to find a gun that really *fits*
It's definatly different.

I Think it is a good gun, but you would be better to use the 50 round magazine pistol version for a LMG, and none of those guns on the webpage are suitable for HMG use, only LMG.
Del that version is very sexy...could just be me...but I'm in love XD
either taht or be a hacker(in terms of modelling) combining parts from other guns to make it seemn futuristic and fit NS
Back on topic, well if Del has seen the TSO pack then it's all good, I was wondering how come he had the exact same pic as Crabbeh... <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo--> Either way, I'm intruiged to see how this turns out Del!
and also an image i'm not using... but still of the calico...
anyway, why not two versions? my junky version, and crabby's awsome possum version that's uber?
Ugly? Ugly?! It's f***in' beautiful!!!
And could u tell me where I can get the TSO pack or this model?
Looks like the blaster from star wars a bit.
It's definatly different. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Agreed <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
I know it's a good gun and the clip has to be like that for the 50 bullets but for a HMG version do what the NS HMg does and have like a C-mag.
If you don't have anything good to say about the model, then whats the point of saying anything at all ? i like this idea, not many games or mods have the calico apart from chaser, thats the only time ive seen it.
That gun looks like it would be back heavy even with the 50 rnd mag.
I bet its a poor shot, recoil would ruin your aim when its got all that back weight.
