So I'm planning on making an as accurate version / model of the sniper rifle in pic related for a cosplay, however the con I'm going to says "no metal/funtional/explosive/heavy wooden weapons". How far can you go without compromising the look of the item, and assuming I still want to machine parts from metal, what problems will this logically cause at a con?
>inb4 just foam it
Rather not, planning to keep it later; the more realistic the better.
All opinions here are helpful.

Most cons will say no "heavy wooden weapons" but all my guns are wood and I've never once been flagged for it. At most some cons will make you keep it strapped to your back or something so that other people can't grab it. Just email them in advance about it.

Sadly I didn't make this, I pulled it from the game files of PlanetSide 2. To be quite honest it's a pain in the ass because nothing is in detail, it's just bulky and even the barrel is an extruded decagon. I'm just in the process of measuring everything, and making individual pieces that can be machined/carved/printed.

I have never seen anyone do anything planetside related before, but that might just be me.

What's that got to do with anything

OP said the gun he/she is making is from planetside, and so far I have never seen anyone do anything from planetside, so this seems decently original.
