Customised Guns / rifles

Post by mandalorianBleahhh » Fri Aug 18, 2006 12:07 pm

Lets just post all the wonderful guns u guys have or came accross!

Verpine Sniper rifle (wonder frm what game...)

*edit*
heres what i found out abt this beauty:

The Verpine Sniper Weapon System
Arguably one of the most versatile and deadly weapons in the Star Wars universe, the Verpine Sniper weapon system comes with a hefty price tag. (Wouldn't we all like to have one! Some of us for more practical reasons than others.)

What makes this weapon so versatile is its ability to utilize not only multiple types of ammunition but also multiple calibers. Sometimes blasters just don't cut it, and as a sniper you don't want your position compromised by the trace of glowing bolts (unless you have an outlawed Stinger).

Ammo choices are limited to what you can fit into the EM (electro magnetic) chamber. In addition to the ability to fire armor pircing ammo, explosive ammo, 2 stage explosive ammo, smart grenades, smokes, laser dissipating aerosol canisters, EM dust tags, tracking devises, EMP grenades, acid rounds, poison rounds, frangible ammo, you can load it with rocks, nuts or bolts, rivets, even hard candy zipping at 3000 feet per second will do the job.

A super accelerated handful of dust and even water or ice could do considerable damage at close range. That's what you really are paying for. Almost unlimited combat usage.

The weapon system's EM coil allows for the option of silent firing with subsonic settings for ammo according to the size and mass of the round. This has a variable effect on long range accuracy depending on the planets atmospheric make up, gravity, and weather because barometric activity will change from planet to planet.

The optics house a barometer that compensates and applies changes to scope settings. The shooter can also do this manually.

The optics have multiple filters allowing the shooter to scan for targets in various light spectrums. The EM filter can visually detect radio wave, and hyper wave transmissions that can be used to pinpoint a target otherwise invisible to visual and other light spectrums.
The EM filter can work in tandem with the other filters allowing the shooter to track tagged targets while observing the target area in the most practical spectrum for the current mission.

The scope's rangefinder and compass can be slaved to a GPS or alternative global tracking system to provide coordinates for pinpoint accuracy for ground, naval, and orbital artillery batteries.

The ARD (anti reflective devise) on the objective lens keeps light from the internal workings of the scope bounce back to the target further concealing the shooter. The Verpine uses no active targeting systems to aim at or acquire targets keeping the shooter from being picked up by EM scanners.

The stock is also as functional as the rest of the weapons features and can be customized to fit the shooters dimensions and preferences. Its 30 cm barrel and collapsing stock make it concealable and light weight. Other features can be added as needed.
A Togorian stock and optics housing will look drastically different from a stock made for a Gand, and that would be far different from one for a human. The function, capabilities and deadliness stay the same.


The Verpine sniper weapon system is delicate in that if it is banged around or jolted enough, the slightest miscalibration will impede the weapon's effectiveness at extreme ranges. It will still work effectively at close range but your sniping abilities will be compromised. The weapon can be hardened against EMP, and slightly armored against kenetic shock but that comes at heafty upgrade costs as well.

This weapon has been a favorite of long range assassins since before the Clone Wars, and will continue to be.

That reminds me that I still got one more prop to do to complete- the BFG.

Don, that's one hell of a big great gun.

Someone (501st member too) posted a Clone' DC-17 rifle on eBay but when I pm/ email him he is not shipping to "Singapore specifically" due to his bad past experience. :( . Sad, don't know my hope of getting a clone rifle is dashed or if he mentioned Singapore. :cry:

why not ask him to send to vpost US and then reshipped to u...might cost more but chances are higher, but the other thing u must considered for the fact that toys guns are under restriction by A&E unit...so 2 scenarios can happen, either u need to get a license which my experience is tough and costly or they will fine u and detain ur item...do considered the factors..


thks

Don, oh yes, I am asking him if he still welcome me to bid if the item is to ship to vPost address in US.

Will there be a problem if it is item is a kit and not fully assembled toy gun? I think vPost is very ON on declaration and GST.

Jedi-Slayer, I thought you found a carpenter to work on the rifle?

Don,
I think I will think trice (that is x4 of thinking already) before I place the bid now. Its not very cheap for a kit to take the risk too. thanks

O'Dan,
The first carpenter that Aw and myself gone to quoted very high for the ARC rifle design I wanted. ($800 - I can almost get another armor kit with that. )
I have gone around the industrial park in Tampines and found one friendly carpenter who is willing to try. After 2 weeks, he still could not quote me but instead he asked me to quote. So I quoted what seem reasonable to me. I expect his work progress to be snail-like, so will call him another 2 weeks later.
The Kit in ebay actually is a DC-15 rifle which a standard issue for all clones and ARC.

Say, Jacen, actually the pic you posted look like the ARC rifle I am trying to get without the 2 stands and maybe add a round magazine. But alas, can only admire.
