Just a little something I've been working on, not quite done yet stil have a few things to add on, one of them would be obvious, its the rear grip that lets you fire the platform.

What is it? Well, lets see I toyed with the idea of a futuristic, or quite possibly steam/diesel punk improvised weapon that is cobbled together from various bits and pieces to form the function of a large industrial nail gun (think foundation nails) used as a weapon.

Though its function could also be laying large rivets in the hulls of ships, airships, etc but was repurposed into a makeshift weapon. Either way this thing, in my head, would be capable of defeating all body armor as well as pinning targets to walls or other conveinent objects behind the target.

It has fairly large magazine, but it uses 12.7mm (otherwise known as 50 BMG) saboted rounds with the nail itself in the sabot. Prior to the attaching of the rails the force of firing the nail or rivet into the hull is enough to get it in there, but after the rails attachement the nail/rivet is given extra oompf as its hurled at a target.

Might make an attachement for the end of the rail that deployes cutting lasers that'd turn the nail/rivet into shrapnel and give a shotgun type effect.

Oh well, just dropping a WIP for the time being before I leap back into it and wrap it up, though might be tomorrow before its remotely finished.
