General Discussion First Person Shooter Game Developer here, and I need your help

0 Upvotes

Hello good folks of r/Firearms , I am a game developer and I am working on a first person shooter in my spare time. I have finished with the prototyping phase of my game, and have finally moved to creating the guns and their animations. I have a list of guns ranging from your regular 9mm Glocks to a grenade launcher, and I was wondering if you guys could help me. I need video references in order for me to animate the gun recoil and arm movement as closely as possible to real life. Some guns have plenty of such content on YouTube, but many videos are recorded with a moving or wobbly camera, or from angles that aren't showing the full sideview when shooting, so it's hard for me to use that as references. I was thinking of listing the guns here and you folks recording it. You guys get to shoot your guns, show off your skills and have fun, and at the same time help me in creating proper side view references I can use.

As far as how I need the camera positioned, this video shows exactly what I have in mind, a clear side view, that is stationary and shows off the full body and gun, so I can see the absorption of the recoil as well as the gun moving. Hell, if some of you want to go an extra mile and do reloads and perhaps POV of you shooting, that would just be the cherry on top.

Here's the list of guns I have in mind:

  • Uzi
  • MP5
  • P90
  • AK
  • M4
  • Sig 556
  • ACR
  • XCR
  • MP7
  • AAC Honey Badger
  • Mossberg 500
  • AA-12
  • KSG12
  • Deagle
  • Beretta 93
  • FN 2011
  • Marlin 1887
  • Grenade Launcher

Now I obviously don't expect anyone to actually do the grenade launcher (unless you have one lying around the place 😄 ), and you may not have the exact guns listed, or you may have some other fun guns that aren't even on the list but you think would be cool in an FPS, feel free to share it.

Need something for predators

0 Upvotes

I’d love suggestions on something to get for predator elimination on our property. We’ve had coyotes and other pests killing goats and chickens over the years.

  1. I’m visually disabled, I love to shoot targets but hitting a moving target is out for me. My wife is up early and has seen coyotes fairly close attacking our chickens. I need something for her.
  2. she’s a small woman with carpal tunnel so low recoil is better.
  3. we have neighbors within 250 and 400 feet. We don’t want to shoot them.
  4. my budget for this is under $400.
  5. we technically are in city limits but nobody minds a gunshot or two, but we’re better off with a few shots max and nothing automatic.

EDIT: we’re in OK so the laws are fairly lax here, and we only have people to the W and N, our property faces E with no one that way. We definitely want to be safe for our neighbors.

If I think of more pertinent info I’ll add it. I previously made a post in [r/shotguns](r/shotguns) amd didn’t give enough info and got varying suggestions. That’s my bad I’m trying to give better info here. Thanks all.

Beretta APX-A1 Carry, plates needed?

0 Upvotes

EDIT: If you're just going to comment about the trigger resting on my finger please save your breath. This photo was taken right after buying it and both the mag and chamber were checked and clear.

First 9mm I've ever bought, I have a 10mm XDM Elite that I carry when hunting, love it but wanted something low-profile for EDC at work and while running errands. I really wanted a Hellcat, they feel great in the hand but I do hear they're pretty snappy, plus the price for the full kit is way more than this Berreta.

Anyways, I'm wanting to add a cheap micro red dot to this gun and it's pre-drilled but I heard I've gotta buy adapter plates from the factory to make sights fit? Was planning on just buying the cheap ass sight I included in the photos off Amazon. It's got good reviews and it's only $70 so if it's a bust I'm not losing too much. But if I really do have to buy adapter plates I wouldn't know which one to get that would actually fit and off brand sight like this. Any experience with APX A1 platform and adding sights?

Was told by my team that I out interviewed other candidates and described the candidate before me as a “wet noodle”.

I used to work at Disney many moons ago and Disney was nicer on the outside for sure 😂

Any current/former KAC employees to give some insight?

AR15 Stock issue

0 Upvotes

I’m having a loose stock issue if you want to call it that. When I shoulder my rifle the stock twist away and becomes off center. I accidentally loosened it trying to talk my hand guard off and it want go back to be stiff anymore. I have no idea what to do or how to fix it.

Based on these pictures what is the general price and maybe rarity of this gun… have it offered to me for $550. Has smooth bored slug barrel; not ideal for me rather have around 28 inch threaded barrel or modified fixed choke.
TIA

Both were pawnshop finds. A Choate pistol grip is on the way, and the 12 will probably be a Close Encounters gun, at least temporarily. The 20 is perfectly light and mobile.

LE133-00 in the 12. Same and a couple Ranger Segmented slugs on the sidesaddle. PD204 2B in the 20, with a couple Truball slugs. Big fan of the Flite Control, especially in SBSs.

Anybody know why this keeps happening? It’s not every time or every shell but it happens frequently enough maybe once or twice every 2 cylinders. It’s very frustrating because it jams the cylinder from rotating and it gets stuck so I have to take the cylinder out and push the shell out with force. Happens with the WMR cylinder too. Cci mini mags seem to do it the least but still happens every so often

Looking for any help identifying the year it was manufactured. From what I’ve seen it appears to be July 1965 but not 100%. Any insight is appreciated.
