Weapons Consultation

Hi Michael,

The general consensus from the guys who work here is when you have a
game set in the future and weapons that are 50-100 years old it just
seems unrealistic. Not that we have not used similar technology for the
last hundred years but when space travel is that common, weapon
technology has to be farther advanced.

The benefit is you can create your own firearms, but please feel free to
come in an pick our sales guys brains if you have some more detailed
questions.

Thank you,

Nick

> Hello Riflegear, I went to your store today but was too embarrassed to pick up a consultation ticket, because I am not a customer. I am working on a video game and need assistance finding the right guns for my survivors. We're on a space station that's being invaded by symbiotic aliens. These aliens take the form of controlled Humans (zombies), human babies, thick skinned t-rex's, and large flying bats. The space station is not militaristic, so scavenging for guns should be difficult. I don't want the guns to be just perfect for the situation, and having a hectic reload time would be awesome.

What simple type of modifications could you make to these weapons without any real gunsmithing tools? (like taping a butcher knife bayonet to a shotgun?)
