... accounted for all of the 225 murders committed in the East New York, Bed-Sty, and Brownsville sections of Brooklyn last year.
The first time I saw a handgun I was eight years old. That gun looked as big and as scary as a meat-eating dinosaur! A friend of my mother's, Frankie, who worked in the construction trade with my uncles, had come to our home very late one night and asked mom to hide the gun for him......
Back in '54 organized crime held tight control over building construction and shipping in New York CIty. They would hijack goods coming into the Port of New York and force those who couldn't pay off their loan shark debts to sell some of the stolen merchandise..... if they didn't.....
In order to help some of these guys my mom would host what would be the equivalent of a Tupperware Party......a skirt party..... a shoe party..... an underwear party.... all weekend affairs to which she invited all the ladies on our block, plus family, friends, friends of friends, and co-workers. As hostess she would receive a percentage of her sales and turn the rest over to.... whoever. She was one terrific saleslady.
I loved those special weekends; the comings and goings, the food, the people.... the ladies oooo'ing and ahhh'ing as they tried on the various items offered for sale.....
As for hiding that gun..... that's one favor for a friend mom wouldn't do. And, as for those 225 murders in Brooklyn.... none were committed by organized crime.

I dunno. Originally, it was inspired by this: flic.kr/p/eftPpb
But I scraped the original, and it turned into this instead.
Thoughts?
Thanks to Goaldude for his M10X Hydra which this gun is based on. Credit to Soupset for the magnetic rails design.

This was going to be my contest entry , but I couldn't finish it thanks to PMG couldn't export the goddamn code,so i had to finish it fast.
I now it's pretty rough at some places , then again, i couln't finish it properly :( I dunno if i should still send this for the contest, i lost all motivation to do another one.
Credit to shock for the ergonomic stuff on the grip and the screws.
An electronically triggered flechette-firing handgun. I have no idea how it'd work, really.
Done in PMG 0.6.
For the contest... and unfortunately the best I can manage. Hope you enjoy it anyway.

I liked the Shirow so much (and a lot of you guys too it seems) that I just had to make another similar gun. Done in PMG 0.6.
