It's all perspective.

Flamethrowers are better in close range and MACs beat guns in long range.

>>422758
Nice guns.

>>422745
Flamethrowers are ridiculously cumbersome and not exactly suitable for using point blank, also tend to get you shot because people dislike being set on fire.
In "close range" circumstances you'd want to use a knife rather than trying to carry about a flamethrower or sword.

Well what if I just like setting shit on fire?

>>422802
Become a flame-based superhero, this sill satisfy your urges, while will keep you alive for long enough until Mr Freeze arrives.

>>422806
You replied to the wrong post.

>>422809
what the heck is this?

This is actually real, they have swords that look just like this.

except that's not true:
>No, it wasn't the actual trophy for the Korean Series champions. The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) doesn't hand out swords or any form of replica weapons.
>You see, the Dinos are owned by NCSOFT, one of South Korea's top game developers. The sword that was brought onto the mound at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul, after the Dinos' 4-2 victory over the Doosan Bears in Game 6, was the real-life replica of the "Execution Sword," a highly coveted item from "Lineage," one of NC's signature games.

I can't stand shit like this. it doesn't look cool it just looks tacky as shit. Same as the vast majority of "skins" or whatever other customization people slap on guns.

Seems as if you are mixing up videogames and real life a bit.

"Skins" are a digital thing, while mods are what people slap on their physical guns until they are covered in so much unnecessary tacked-on bullshit they end up as retarded abominations

>>423544
I know they're a term used in vidya, but I've seen plenty of firearms with a "skin" on them too. I presume with the same technique as they do this shit: HOW WE PAINT HELMETS WITH THE LATEST PRINTING TECHNOLOGY
They almost always look like shit.

>>423408
How would you sheath this?

>>423555
Presumably it is ceremonial rather than for proper use, so its not as much a concern.

Wonder if laser swords will ever actually be a thing that exists.
Obviously it won't be for the purposes of combat, most likely existing as some sort of advanced cutting tool.

Don't know about laser swords, but some guys on youtube built themselves lightsaber lookalikes. One using a super heated tungsten (?) rod, and a much cooler one from a plasma torch which can extend/sheath at a button press and have different colors.

There are obvious usability concerns (you have to carry the gas canister) and it can only melt stuff, not deflect bullets or one-hit-kill space marines.
