The Nickel Plate M1911 event was a fun event for me.
You can participate in a short period of time and get souvenirs for completing a few tasks. I like this kind of thing.
I look forward to another event like this coming.
So, if there is a mini event like this next time, what pistol would you all like to have? Please post a pistol that has not yet appeared in the game, that existed before 1945, and that you would like to have in the game.
Or you can post about pistols that were given out at past events that you strongly want to see redistributed.
Let us know our wish list to dev!
My Wish List
Walther P38K
It is cool with the barrel trimmed down. It was used by the German secret police.
Colt Model 1903
It was never adopted by the military, but during World War II, high-ranking officers in various countries purchased them at their own expense for self-defense, and a small number were procured for the purpose of self-defense by aircrews.
It is said that the gun was often used by secret agents and operatives because of its small size, ease of carrying, and the need to conceal the gun and fire it in case of an emergency.
Shiny, sleek and sexy.
During World War II, soldiers were allowed to carry privately purchased handguns into battle.
Japanese also used the Colt M1903 and may have used the C96. Especially with regard to the Japanese army, many officers favored foreign-made pistols because domestic pistols were initially unreliable.
I would like military-issued rifles and submachine guns to be tied to each country, but as for pistols, those that were sold to the public could be possessed regardless of nationality.
I would like to add this to the list.
I want American soldiers to have this. If there are Japanese soldiers who carry swords into battle, there should be Yankee’s who carry cowboy guns.
It was hidden in Enlisted files (and used in some mods) for some time as well, later replaced with stocked version.
There were so called “M1930” C96 with 20 round mags that were made in semi-auto only mode.
I agree, but Japan has a fine selection of smaller pistols already. I would like to find something with a bit more punch, preferably a more unique gun.
There was a suggestion about a Navy double-barrel shotgun in a pistol configuration somewhere on forum.
For Germans I would like to see Dreyse model 1907 & 1910
Model 1907 is in editor
(Model 1907)
and For axis, I want to see Frommer M1910(Hungarian)
Glisenti Model 1910(Italy)
For Japan hino komuro m1908
For Americans Pre-war colt.22 automatic
Each of the three barrels had a different colored flare and was used for a variety of purposes. I have heard that this pistol was also used to direct targets to naval bombers, so it would not be surprising if, for example, the Japanese naval land forces had one of these in their possession.
But it is a flare gun and I don’t know if it can be loaded with shotshells.
It would be interesting if it was a weapon that would more reliably burn a person it hit than a shotgun and then spread around like Molotov.
A direct hit would kill you instantly, but otherwise it would perform like a Molotov, with a load of 3 rounds and a long reload animation.
Well, a unique toy this elaborate should have a chance to be obtained over a long period of time, so it might be more suitable for gold orders than event giveaways.
A pistol designed by Lieutenant Kumakura Hino of the Army and patented in 1903.
It has a blow-forward mechanism, which is rare in the world.
It is also called Komuro-pistol or Hino-Komuro-pistol because it was sold by Komuro Firearms in partnership with Mr. Komuro, an investor.
This gun was a fearsome gun, and once the barrel was cocked, there was no way to extract the bullet without firing it, and there was always the danger of an accidental firearm explosion. In fact, the designer, Hino, punched out his own left thumb. Later, he was shot from behind while operating another person’s gun and the bullet penetrated his abdomen. These are probably the only two times this gun has shot a person.
The gun was not adopted by the Japanese military, and Komuro planned to sell it in China, but that plan was never carried out.
I now remember that 3 German Flare guns are also hidden in editor. They could use an incendiary shell, a HE shell, I suppose some shotgun shell could be made for them as well - you just need to balance a gunpowder charge to lower recoil. I also wouldn’t say no to a smoke shell, as long as it produces larger could compared to a smoke granade.
For Japan, I wonder - how many Chinese-made C96 in .45 ACP they’ve encountered?
I’d like to see some Spanish pistols. The Germans ordered a bunch of the Astra 400, and I’ve seen some things that suggest that they even used the Star P (I think is what it is called) that is basically a copy of the 1911.
I’ve been thinking about making a thread on handguns for a while.
My choices for additional handguns would be as following:
Germans/Italians/general axis:
Glisentio M1910, Dreyse 1907, the volkssturm pistols as previously mentioned
Beretta 1915(the 9mm glisenti version, not the .32 version)
Swedish Husqvarna M/40/Finnish Lahti L-35
Mauser 1914 or 1934
Frommer M1912 Stop
Spanish Astra 400 or 600(Astra 400 but in 9mm para)
Astra 300
Unique Model 17 as well as the general Ruby and Ruby clone area of pistol
Mauser HSc
Woa! What a huge list!
I am surprised that there were so many pistols up to WW2 that have not appeared in the game!
It will be a good inspiration for developers.
