This thread inspired my Hexagon doodle tonight so I made a generic rifle. It was a lot of fun. It should look a lot better once I make some texture maps for it.

I tweaked my rifle a little more. Here’s the .obj file for the rifle if anyone wants it. Critiques welcome.

I think I might actually try building a real rifle next (I do so miss the FNC1-A1 from my days in the forces). Does anyone know if there are trademark issues concerning making 3D models of real world objects?

Link fixed so .obj file is available

As far as weapons go, I know that Forender has a large number of real-world weapon models, with the nomenclature and everything, and there are some real-world military vehicle models in the Daz3D store (M1A2 Abrams, M2 Bradley and Hummer/Humvee/HMMWV).  Automobile models tend to have fictional names, however, at least for Poser/Daz models; I’ve seen many 3DS Max models that are modeled after real-world cars, right down to the makes and model names.

I always liked the fictionalized automobiles in Interstate 76. It was kind of fun to see how many you could match up to their real world counterpart.

And speaking of fictional guns, guess what I found just now on ShareCG:

This U.N.C.L.E. fan is very happy :D. Now if I can only find a model of the pen communicator and of the Thrush rifle…
