I'm writing a neat action/adventure story (movie in my dreams, maybe someday though) where a machinist has a Near Death Experience and while in Heaven meets John Moses Browning (nope not God since he isn't completely dead yet). Anyway, long story short he learns he's going to have to fight a lot of bad guys on earth (yes like so many cliche action/adventure movies, but with some really shocking twists, just like Star Wars!) so JMB shows him some new designs he's made during his decades in Heaven. Since JMB has had a few decades time to think and talk to other firearms designers in Heaven I figure he's got some freaking sweet pistol designs to help the Machinist.
My problem is I have no clue where to start on describing these dream firearms some people reading this forum are nearly drooling at the mere thought of. What do you think JMB would make today? Please give me your suggestions, though I do have a few regulations.
I figure since my Machinist is going to fight a small war, sort of like in the very good movie Equilibrium, he's going to need some serious but very concealable accurate pistols to do some damage to the bad guys on some sneak up missions. Plus he doesnt have time to build more than 3 pistols. He will just pick up rifles and machine guns as he goes in this story.
This is NOT a 9mm vs .45 vs 10mm thread, it's all like a toolbox so the story has one of each. You happy? Good. Yes, I've seen Ronin. Great car chases.
For the amazing imaginary pistols, it's a given that JMB has a 9mm and a .45. JMB made the first of both (or very nearly the first), obviously he would make a few improvements on the 1911 and the High Power. I'll throw in a 10mm just to cover that base too. Sorry no revolvers. After all if JMB designs it in heaven, it's going to be as reliable as a revolver, if not moreso.
As for the name of the pistols, JMB 9, 10, and 45. It's just that simple.
I'm stumped on the size of these pistols and the appearance. Any wierd looking yet surprisingly practical (or just crazy wierd) pistol pictures you all have to post? I figure the 9mm is the deep concealment one, the .45 and 10mm are the longer barrelled and noisy Idontcareifyouknowimshooting pistols, though all have silencers just in case. Gotta keep it flashy and sneaky. Even James Bond occasionally used a silencer on his Walther PPK.
As to the metals the pisols are made out of, anything goes, even Adamantium. Anyone ever make a pistol out of a really wierd, crazy tough and expensive metal like Molybdenum or something people dont expect? I bet gunsmiths and gunmakers have almost tried it all by now. Not plastic though, too cliche. Maybe Ceramic though...
Please reply folks, writers block really, really sucks and this is definitely a Pro firearms rights story. Also please dont lock this mods, this is not a joke, and definitely firearms related. Thank you.
