You know what this reminds me of? I have no idea why, and it doesn't look or function like one, but it reminds me of a Thompson with the 20-round clip. Like a Thompson, mixed with a magazine-fed WW2 carbine or something.

Anyway, resemblances aside, nice work. Decent range, impressive design. I just wish you hadn't painted it black, or at least flat black. Throw some fluorescent green and yellow and hot pink on there!

Sorry you guys arn't going for the black paint. I though Boltsniper's guns looks serious and professional and that's the look I was going for. I really don't mind it. Visual styling is not my thing, so if anyone has any suggestions for a better appearance than post away. But the one thing I will not do is add any orange, green, pink, purple, or anything that will make this gun look retarded (aka, like a toy). I know that if I walk around outside with it and show a bunch of overly concerned citizens then the cops might get a call about me, but I don't plan on actually doing that. Its a sacrifice I have to make due to the looks of the gun, I know, but I would rather do that than have a socially acceptable paint job.

I really don't know what you guys see in these neon colors.

Really nice gun, I like it a lot. I have a suggestion for the paint job, add some darker blues or reds and some gray, it would add some variety and in my opinion maintain the darker, more professional look you are going for.

Wow, it kind of looks like an mp 40. But back to the point, I'd use it as a secdondary anyday - but it doesn't fit the role of a pistol, pistols usually are your last resort and aren't suped up gifts sent from the gods...




I think you might have a little too much free time on your hands

My opinion on a good/professional paint job: nonvertical Grey stripes on the black.

We make them look like what they are...toys. I see what you were going for, but you aught to slap some orange duct tape on there when you're in public. That thing just looks menacing. It looks very sleak and proffesional, but the real main reason for us going so heavy on neon is that it keeps it looking like a toy (What it's suppost to look like), and less like a real firearm, which generally, in public places, causes a tad bit of dismay.

Plus, they look cooler in neon.

I mean, have you ever seen a neon-painted blaster under a blacklight? That shit looks amazing.

I say if you don't want that, go for dull reds, blues, or greens. Something chromatic, so people realize it's a toy.
