    Default What are your Gun invention ideas?

    I figure there are a lot of people here that spend a lot of thought on guns so there must be a lot of good innovation ideas.

    So, tell us about some of the ideas you've got cookin!

    I'll start:
    What about a way to make a gun barrel not hold water. So that when you come up out of the water with your rifle pointed upwards, you don't have to take the time to point your muzzle down before firing. I'm thinking like a hole near the chamber that has some way of of shutting before the round passes by (like a small spring door that's pushed closed by the bullet and held shut with the high presure. Or mabye unlocking the bolt and pulling back the round a little by pushing the trigger forward and then advancing the bolt again by pulling back the trigger.

    What are your ideas?

    I've been thinking of a way to put two magazine tubes next to each other on the bottom of a pump or semi-auto shotgun. I'm going for doubling the capacity without doubling the length. I figure if you have them side by side, it will reduce the angle needed to feed onto the lever, compared to if you have an over/under mag style.

    Like your idea, my idea has very limited market.

    Rhineo, your idea is similar to ideas about sealing off a suppressor to help reduce first round pop. The difference is that you need something much more substantial to hold back water than you do to hold back atmosphere. I know that you can create a force field out of plasma that will separate atmosphere from a vacuum, but I don't know how shooting a bullet through it would effect the bullet.

    Along this same line of thought, I used to think about ways to have a removable end cap for suppressors so you could just buy one for your largest caliber, then switch end caps for when you use your can on your smaller caliber pistols. You wouldn't be able to change the baffles with this method (nor are you allowed to possess extra baffles) but it would probably be significantly more quiet than shooting 9mm out of a .45 diameter hole. The best idea we discussed was using some sort of aperture that adjusts like the lens of a camera adjusts.

    I put a gun on my gun so I can shoot while I shoot. Then Xzibit got word and stole the idea from me...

    That's a freaking cool video Ridge. Not quite as fool proof as I was thinking though.

    But the gun on the gun now needs its own gun.
