Anybody ever think of dressing up one of their guns to look like something from Fallout 3 or New Vegas? The idea just crossed my mind today when I was looking for news on FO4 with the usual disappointing results. I came across a few props that people had made from the fallout games and figured somebody oughtta be doing it with the real thing. I tried to think about the legality of it, which shouldn't be an issue. Kind of like putting a 10/22 in an airsoft body, except you'd have to build the body yourself. Maybe a 10/22 or a mossberg 500 "laser rifle" ?

I've seen pics of people doing AR's with wood furniture like the service rifle and I'm not going to lie, I kind of wanted badly.

The "chinese assault rifle" could probably be adapted from an AK pretty easily, with some custom furniture. The ".32 pistol" is essentially a top-break S&W or Iver Johnson. But I don't see the sense in making one that looks like something already in common circulation. I stumbled across a bunch of diamondplate aluminum and some other leftover metal I forgot I had lying around the other day, a "laser rifle" might be in my future!

It would be cool, but I have not the skills nor the time to do so
The airsoft body 10/22 has always fascinated me. I wish I knew how to do that |

Opie, you need to go to the RPF forums. Everything you've ever wanted to do with movie or vid game weapons has been done and has files, instructions, pics & parts already made for what you want to do. |

I wish I knew how to do that I had mine in an archangel marauder (G36) kit for awhile, had problems with their mag so now it's not in a stock at all. I love working with sheetmetal and fiberglass so this just might happen, albeit very slowly. |

I've got too many hobbies, mostly building or doing anything that I probably should just pay to have done. Waiting for FO4 has been driving me nuts, figured it'd be out by the time I got my new PC built, but it's been over 6mo since then.... |

Nope, never considered it.
I mean--I'd build a replica Fallout Laser rifle--sure! ...but a replica Fallot Laser rifle that shoots .22LR? 12 ga?...not so much. That would be disappointing. |

Well there is a scoped 44 mag in the game. Can't be too hard to make.

I've ran the whole "actual laser rifle" thing through my head too, neither practical nor safe, or effective at any range past an inch or so I'd imagine. I could probably rig up a pretty powerful laser pointer along the barrel that would illuminate the gases as it's fired. Might give a nice effect at dusk. A replica fallout energy weapon that actually puts a hole in something when you pull the trigger would still have a pretty big grin-factor. |

Dunno why no one has at least made the 10mm or .223 pistols yet.

The "barrel" of that laser rifle is so big and boxy I could house the whole 10/22 in there, I'd just have to lengthen it a little bit I think so the whole barrel would be inside. And I'd have to rig up some type of trigger linkage.

I need to find a blue jumpsuit one of these years, I'll sew some yellow trim on it as a Halloween costume. But I can't decide which vault number?

Or 34. That seemed to be the Arfcom of vaults, with the overstocked armory and subsequent love of all things that go boom. |

The original post talked about dressing up a gun is all I'm saying. The RPF people are amazing though. I've always dreamt of building a functional pulse rifle. There are tons of super accurate non firing replicas people have made and a couple of people have made functional facsimiles but they were way off on the overall look and details (one didn't even use a Thompson but used an M11 I think). I used to have an SD Studios pulse rifle. Had to sell it years ago though. That thing was a beast and weighed like 15-18 pounds. |
