P1 "Dillinger" Machine Pistol (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v630/Senor_Nb3/1200617865244.jpg)

Inspired by John Dillinger's jerry-rigged Colt .38 Super machine pistol, the Arsenal of Freedom decided to standardize the idea and turn it into a useful weapon.

The weapon itself, built on a modified M1911A1 chassis, functions on a simple recoil operated blowback method. The Caliber of the pistol, owing to its relatively compact size and taking a cue from the Beretta M93R, is your ordinary 9x19mm Parabellum fed into 20 shot magazines. Like Dillinger's pistol, it is equipped with a muzzle brake to reduce the effects of recoil upon the user--though ours is a bit more thought out.

Caliber: .45 ACP
Weight: 5.5lbs empty, 6lbs loaded
Length: 8in
Length of barrel: 4in
Feeding: 20 shot box magazines
Rate of fire: 900 rounds per minute (uses 3 shot bursts for controllability)
Action: Short Recoil Blowback System (Browning-derived)
Effective Range: 75yds
Sights: Iron Sights, Tritium-Illuminated Sights

USD$300 per P1.
USD$1,800,000 for P1 Production Rights.

Persuader Shotgun (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v630/Senor_Nb3/saiga12.jpg)

Tired of those damn kids on your lawn? Tired of those urban guerillas playing hide and seek in bombed-out buildings? Show them who's boss, with the Arsenal of Freedom's Persuader shotgun! Capable of selective fire from semi to fully auto, this will show them what for.....

Caliber: 12-gauge
Weight: 8lbs empty, 10lbs loaded
Length: 34in
Length of barrel: 18.5in
Feeding: 10 shot box magazines, 20 round drum magazines
Rate of fire: 360 rounds per minute
Action: Modified Browning Long Recoil System
Effective Range: 50yds
Sights: Iron Sights, Tritium-Illuminated Iron Sights
Accessories: Rails for mounting accessories, and adjustable stock

USD$800 per Persuader.
USD$4,000,000 for Persuader Production Rights.

SR1 Thunderbolt

OOC: Credit goes to MassPwnage, who no longer plays NS, and if it wasn't MP who made the scope, whoever originally produced it (possibly Doom). After some initial confusion, MassPwnage let me revive the design. If the scope is problematic, it can be duly edited to something else.

Description: The SR1 Thunderbolt Sniper Weapons System is the pinnacle of Mazara and New Dornalian weapons precision weapons design. The SR1 is manufactured to the highest standards from only the finest of materials and offers extreme accuracy. MP Ordnance guarantees that the rifle will shoot .25 MOA or less with proper ammunition, with figures generally ranging from .10 to .20 MOA at any given range.

Stock: The stock is constructed from two hollow pieces of Kevlar reinforced fiberglass with the action and barrel resting atop aluminum/epoxy bedding blocks. Steel inserts reinforce critical areas of the furniture to prevent breakage. The stock is especially wide and weighted towards the forearm, as to attenuate recoil and improve follow-up shots. The stock is adjustable for length of pull and height and the rubber recoil pads have buffer springs built into the stock itself, in order to assist with recoil absorption. The stock may or may not fold, depending on the wishes of the customer.

Action: The weapon's action is a modified Swedish Mauser action with 3 locking lugs that has a 60 degree throw and cocks on closing, which makes working the action go a bit faster. The fluting cut into the body of the bolt help to keep contaminants out of the raceway, as does the generous clearances allowed between the bolt and the receiver. The bolt itself is partially free floated, which allows the case head to align the bolt with the chamber and gives plenty of room for dirt or mud to fall away.

Barrel: The barrel is a cold hammer forged barrel, partially bedded (to avoid unnecessary stress on the action) and lined with stellite to prevent wear and tear. The end of the barrel is cut with threads co-axial to the centerline of the bore, so that attaching anything will only minimally affect barrel harmonics.

Trigger: The trigger is precision tuned and adjustable from 1-3 kilograms. It is positioned to have a minimum of travel length, thus reducing delay and improving accuracy. The sear and connector are also made out of aircraft grade titanium alloy, reducing the delay between pulling the trigger and the firing pin striking the primer even more.

Mounts: There is a bipod spigot in the forearm of the stock. Any standard bipod made by MP Ordnance, Jensen Design Bureau or DDI can be fitted to the spigot. Also, the rails on top the receiver allow for many different varieties of scope and accessories to be attached. There is also a monopod affixed to the butt of the gun to stabilize the rear of the weapon when firing.

Iron Sights: The SR1 comes with a set of flip up aperture sights for engaging targets if the scope is broken or if the scope cannot be used for risk of exposure. The iron sights can be used for shooting out to around 400-500m, depending on the skill of the shooter. Both the front and rear sights are adjustable for elevation and windage.

Optics: The standard optic for this weapon is the SDSV-33.The SDSV-33 is the ultimate expression of Pwnage precision optics. Finely crafted, with laser ground lenses and high performance electronics, the SDSV-33 allows shooters to take full advantage of the DRS-84 sniper rifle's accuracy, allowing shooting at all distances and in all conditions.

The glass used in the scope is Level 2 scratchproof, normally reserved for high powered microscopes and the finest cameras. To protect the glass from bits of dust, water and mud, the surface of the outside lens is coated with titanium dioxide, which causes contaminants to slough off more easily. Also, due to the quality of the glass, very little light is reflected off of the scope, making it more difficult for a sniper to give away his/her position.

The SDSV-33 can automatically shift between American and European crosshair placement. In the American placement, the crosshair remains the same size at all levels of magnification, thus, the reticle only obscures a tiny portion of the target in long range shots. The European placement has the reticle cover the same proportion of the target at all magnifications making it easier to estimate distance using mil dots.

The charged coupling device inside the scope can detect visible light or light in the infrared spectrum . The scope can either automatically change the color and size of the reticle judging by outside lighting/target conditions, or the shooter can manually adjust it. The scope's electronics have been waterproofed to 150m. Crosshair styles include illuminated mil-dot, standard mil-dot, red dot and v-sights.

At night or in low light conditions, the shooter can select between multiband IR or light amplification modes. The shooter can adjust for range, windage and parallax via the knobs on the scope housing. The shooter can go through the entire minute of adjustment range in two turns of the knob. The scope's electronics can also handle adjustments for range, windage, and mirage much faster than a human can.

The scope can download and record video, allowing the sniper to act as a forward observer. Combat USB 3.0 ports are included for uplink with transmission devices and laser rangefinders. The SDSV-33 runs on rechargeable lithium ion batteries, although the scope will still work to a limited extent even if the batteries are dead.

The scope housing is made out of durable, incredibly hard wearing high impact plastics. In tests, we have run over the SDSV-33 with an 18 wheeler, dropped it from 15m, dragged it through mud, hit it with a sledgehammer repeatedly and subjected it to extremes of temperature. Occasionally, the lenses cracked (but were still usable to some extent), however, the scope housing stood up to all the vicious punishment we could throw at it. The scope lens covers are made from the same aluminum oxynitride blocks used to guard tank optics, and are scratchproof, with very little glare. Part of the durability testing was that this scope be mounted on a 15.5mm machine gun. The scope remained stable despite the intense recoil of the heavy machine gun.

The scope is designed to be mounted on any M1913 RIS. PLEASE DON'T BE A HICK AND ATTACH THIS THING TO A HANDGUN.

A simplified version, without the ability to record video and without infrared ability is available and costs $5,000 less.

Precision in Manufacturing: Every detail of this weapon is manufactured to exacting standards. Every item is blueprinted and machined to within .000001mm tolerance before and after assembly and all measurements are confirmed via laser reflection. Before delivery of the weapon, the barrel is boresighted and compared with the alignment of the furniture. Then, 18 rounds are fired, a 3 shot group at 100m, 300m, 600m, 1200m and 1600m. The man sized silhouettes used in the testing are then delivered along with the gun. All metal parts are finished with a Tenifer coating for greater durability.

Custom shop edition: MP Ordnance (OOC: or possibly Jensen Design, since MP left NS) offers a service, where the company will send technicians to travel out to the residence of the buyer, in order to determine his or her shooting style and shooting needs, as well as height, build and other considerations. The technicians will watch the shooter shoot and march with a standard SR1 and determine what adjustments need to be made in the field. Also the, buyer is equipped with motion capture sensors while shooting, to determine the optimal placement of the various elements of the gun. Other technicians will perform an eye exam on the shooter, so that the SDSV-33 (or any other optic the shooter wishes to use), can be custom tuned to fit their eyes. Any other requests the shooter has will be duly noted. The rifle will be built at MP Ordnance and delivered to the shooter within 3 weeks.
