I'm kind of a retard when it comes to gun design but this looks plausible. good job, OP

>>34663984
I call it: "Very Long Recoil".

>>34663984
Now mount a bayonet onto the barrel.
Use with blanks for CQC spearing.

>>34663984
Put the drum just Infront of the trigger guard. It will balance the gun better and you need less distance for the barrel to travel. Results in a lighter main spring.

What cycles the drum to load a new round? Constant spring tension or does it turn on the blow forward cycle?

>>34663984
is the spring inside the barrel?

>>34664405
You're a genius

>>34664509
Not OP but the spring as shown would have to be on the outside, it's like a captive recoil springbut the barrel is in the middle.

>Put the drum just Infront of the trigger guard.
Tell it to Bethesda.

>>34663984
Needs a bayonet or a sharpened muzzle device.

Except the gun in the game doesn't actually do that, so Bethesda is still retarded.

Still, nice job, op.

Blow forward has been used in a handful of guns.

The spring would go between the barrel and the shroud.

>>34664672
That's a bit of a leap from a handgun round to a shotgun round, could probably work with a heavier spring

Retard

>>34663984

reminds me of the cobray terminator

Shit, you just found a way to make the fender melee weapons from EDF. They're basically magazine fed policymakers.
I actually want one of these retarded Bethesda shotguns now

Direct blow back. It has a massive bolt, recoil spring, and a short barrel. Easy to produce in the wasteland.

Right off the bat, I want to reeeee, but your idea is interesting, OP. I don't think it would be very practical, but it would be a novel design. Mock one up!

>>34663984
You are a genius op

Alternative, less ridiculous version

>>34668238
Out of curiosity, how would you get the last three shells out of the mag and into the receiver?

>>34668238

>>34668469
Perhaps excess gas from firing can be diverted?

>>34664410
Escarpment like a dp28

>>34668469
Two walking beams that alternate with every round fired and shuffle rounds into the lifter

>>34664664
It could be like a handgun slide, so fast you don't see it.

>>34668469
I had the RCI XRAIL in mind when I drew it, but now that I think about this, there doesn't appear to be enough room in the drum for several springs
Could be a spring inside the strut in front of the drum, but how that'd work is beyond me

>>34668469
I mean, with Fallout's ridiculous design maybe it's just always 12+3
