Halo weapon Mechanics

[Church]

Is there anyone out there who has been looking for a way to make the mechanism for the firearms the UNSC uses? I have and i think this thread could help everyone make slightly better props that could possibly work closely to the one in the video game

 

[Strikerkc]

How so? are you looking to make a functioning prop, like an Air Soft gun, or are you looking to make a fictional guide for how to disassemble/perform maintenance on the halo weapons? or make a "see through" or partially disassembled/cutaway display prop?

 

[Church]

Sort of both but so one could build off of it and one day build a fully functioning replica

 

[Church]

Ive been doing some research and the closest match to the halo SOCOM ODST pistol is the glock 17 it bears the most resemblance and if you scale the parts to the right size then you could in turn have the parts for the ODST pistol

 

[Church]

 

[Sean]

How do you plan on scaling up a real world firearm If I may ask?

 

[Church]

By getting hold of a glock 17 and a replica of the halo odst pistol you could compare the sizes and see how big they are to each other.

Then you could have a cutaway look of the glock 17 and halo odst pistol then compare where the parts should go and how much bigger or smaller they need to be.

But the only problem for me right now is getting the glock 17s parts to compare to the SOCOM odst pistol.

It looks more like a Hudson H-9 or even a CZ Shadow. Much closer than the Glock I think.

 

[Church]

More than likely there are multiple pistols like it and all of them are good comparisons.

But the data still remains the same though

 

[Sean]

Are you wanting to take a prop and build It around a real world Firearm?

 

[Church]

Why yes but its not going to be a real fire arm just have the mechanics of one

 

[Sean]

 

[Church]

While the 1911 is the most basic of handguns the odst pistol and the standard pistol in the game both have an integrated hammer and are more complex than the 1911

 

[Sean]

 

[Church]

Ive seen your vid already impressive.

 

[Church]

It seems to me that its more easier than it should be but the only problem that i have is getting the size of the odst pistol.

But its still going along nicely none the less

 

[Church]

So recently ive found a suppressor that is the closest thing to a ODSTs suppressor for the pistol

- - - Updated - - -

So therefore if i coulf make a cross-section version there is the suppressor complete but all that remains is the pistol itself

 

[Church]

Ok found one
