Right on, that's reasonable.

That's cool but if you really want to carry something for less-lethal self defense, please just carry pepper spray. You're just gonna hurt your hand and piss off an attacker if you use this.

When a state-of-the-art prototype super-drug gets mixed up in the wrong CIA drug delivery, one Berlin teen is in for more than she bargained for. Will she rise to the occasion and become... The Heroine

guy who's only played deus ex and dishonored: it felt a lot like deus ex the way you pick up and throw items, it's got the dishonored style controls for leaning/peeking

In the original DiC release, yes. There's a better English dub by Viz.

In school, i tried building a glue and spaghetti tower like this. It was a disaster.

i like the poster you made

 
 
 

they have more moving parts than a glock, it's like a mechanical watch inside those things, a mechanical watch that requires hand-fit parts, that gets dirty and gunked up and undergoes dramatic shocks when used

i've seen them jam more frequently than autoloaders, and when they do, you gotta unscrew the sideplate (which required me to also remove the grip) and fiddle with its bits

so, if you want a reliable defensive pistol, go with something like a glock

i still think they're neat

A better bullpup trigger. (www.youtube.com)

How come all modern production bullpup rifles use long trigger bars? I'm assuming (maybe incorrectly) that's what makes them notoriously mushy.

Check out the TKB-022PM. The trigger releases a backward-traveling striker, that hits a class 1 lever, that hits the firing pin. I feel like that's got potential for a much better feeling trigger.

Well for one con, I could see that there's probably more time between the trigger break and actual ignition. And you have an extra part, that lever, undergoing a lot of force. And how do you recock the backward striker? On the return stroke of the bolt?

gotta free palestine and go fast
