GUNS in GAMES

[trickybus]

Truly, a complete shit-ass of a gun, but it was dirt cheap to make and it won a war and a half

This reminds me of yet another Metro gun: the Bastard. It's also an SMG inspired by a real gun (an early version of the PPD-40) and, similar to the grease gun, is a mass-produced piece of shit.

The Bastard is the first gun you get because of how easy they are to manufacture in a post-nuke city and the quality is very apparent when you use it. It overheats, jams, suffers from a massive drop in accuracy after a few yards and the recoil is absurd. The only things going for it besides ease of manufacturing and repair are the bullet capacity and the high rate of fire. It feels awful to use but it's also a very effective piece of world-building.

Man, this is so awesome. There's tonnes going on with this gun. Normally when a gun is "homemade" it's just a bunch of pipes loosely screwed and taped together that look like it'll explode in your hand, but this looks like something that could exist.

The parts are mostly PPD, like all the main firing stuff, ejection port, etc, looks very PPD. But then you got the AK looking pistol grip, and the front is really reminding me of something I can't place. And what's even nicer is that it's all been bashed into an extremely economic STEN looking design.

(The STEN is the British piece of shit answer to the MP40)

Fun fact: PPD's (and assumedly Bastards based on those bullets) fire rifle rounds, making them technically carbines and not SMGs, however, Russia doesn't have a term to distinguish between the two (they use a catch-all term for all small automatic firearms like that) so when translated, Russian carbines are often called SMGs. CoD games flip-flop on this when it comes to AKs with them being classed as SMGs if the game is set in the past and ARs if it's modern
