Anyways, I'd love to see some of the more unknown firearms in the world in Knex. Such as all those Russian bullpups, which are cool. ;-)
The TKB is very ugly but so awesome... :-D
Also, PK is neat as well.
'Fraid the TKB-022 will never get featured in a videogame, and therefore will never be built in Knex...
Why does he want the TEC-9 in Knex anyways? No one knows it, and it looks ugly.
And why a revolver, actually?
I do think there are more aftermarket parts for sale for Glock then for M9, but I'm not too sure about that.
As to the question, why a revolver, they are capable of better accuracy. When you pull the trigger of an autoloader, the hammer (or striker) flies forward and hits the cartridge's primer. This in turn lights off the powder, which propels the bullet forward. Before the bullet leaves the barrel, the slide starts moving backwards,and the empty cartridge case starts the ejection process. The fresh cartridge starts moving up out of the clip. There is a lot going on. This all happens while the bullet is moving down the barrel, affecting accuracy.
In a revolver, when the trigger is pulled, the hammer strikes the primer, lighting the powder, which pushes the bullet down and out the barrel. Much less is going on to diminish accuracy in a revolver.
Finally the issue of Glocks versus 1911's or Berettas, personally speaking, In a situation where my life is at stake, I'll pick Glock every time. I carry a G19C 4th Generation compact, and also have a G21C I use for pistol matches. I love them both. The safety on a Glock is keeping your finger OFF the trigger.
There are no external safety levers or buttons, the only safety on a glock is built onto the trigger. You pull the trigger, and it fires. No fumbling for safety buttons, no need to try and remember if the safety is on or off or need to have a proper grip to release the grip safety, just point, and pull the trigger and it WILL fire. A lot of people criticise the Glock because the absence of a safety, but this is the same system all revolvers have, and no one has a problem with wheelguns.
Besides, 44. Magnum does not fire 50 cal (maybe conversions do), it fires 44. cal. Magnum. (Obv.)
The 50AE chambering must be pretty new, as when I was looking at them a few years back, they only came in 357M and 44M.
I went with a 500 Smith & Wesson revolver, with a 4" barrel as I wanted something heavy enough to drop a grizzly or brown bear. The 500 grain Hornady 9252 rounds are a real dangerous game stopper, but the gun is *very* intimidating due to the heavy recoil. I don't use it for much practice, I only carry it as a last ditch defense when fishing in Alaska
Btw, I just readed the post below. Oblivitus won't post it.
too sad i have no pieces for this and i probably going to make a XM8
