Well actually, it was an M16.

The Princess Diaries 3 when?

They had cannons in the late medieval period. Which is to say, give that removed a cannon removed love cannons!

The Disney princess lineup has always had some odd inclusions and exclusions. Mulan is considered a Disney princess^TM despite not actually having the title, as is Alice (some random girl), Pocahontas (chieftain’s daughter, which I guess you can argue is a similar concept), Moana (see above), Mirabel (another random girl without a position of authority), Tinker Bell, Jane Porter (although she is a noble, which is at least similar) and Megara. (From Hercules, in case you also forget that movie existed)

Likewise, the lineup does not include Nala, despite actually possessing the title explicitly. (Is Disney racist against lions or something?) Nor does it include Eilonwy, though that’s understandable considering The Black Cauldron flopped so hard it nearly tanked their animation department. It doesn’t include any acquired properties either, so as funny as it is to lump Leia into the group, officially she doesn’t count.

If you don’t tell me everything there is to know about these first graders’ pronouns and genitalia, the United States of America I know and love is dead and gone, dammit. Do you want the terrorists to win, or have you always been a gender-queer, socialist groomer?

Rated PG for some fart jokes, probably.

There are not many people that had the kind of life arc I have had:

Grew up poor in an exurb of a suburb. Only thing it had going for it was a good public school system.

Was raised on Rush Limbaugh on the radio anytime I was in a car as a kid. Went on a few camping and boating trips, got some decent outdoorsy type experience…

…But I was the only bright one in my family, who were constantly bickering and screaming, and I eventually just retreated into my room and lived on my computer.

Eventually went to college, got two degrees, realized basically everything about my fathers heavily imposed worldview was complete horseshit, other than enjoying nature when you can.

Long story short you end up with me, a bashful autistic dork who generally loves learning anything, who is fascinated by firearms on a mechanical and physics level, and also genuinely enjoys the zen of controlled breathing and body control required to make a precise shot, but is also aware of the serious problems they pose to American society, the perverse incentives of gun manufacturers and their political lobbying, etc.

On the flip side of that, the vast majority of COD and Halo playing assholes that claim they can do some crazy firearm related thing they can do in a video game… I can actually do some of the more realistic things irl, with more realistic kit.

A big thing that just totally escapes a lot of FPS players that think their video game experience is directly transferable to real life… is training and practice.

That and a lot of them are just laughably out of shape, and, unlike in video games, guns have /weight/.

I have been mulling over for quite a long time how to make a video game that more realistically conveys the culmination of many non obvious factors that play into using firearms, but the problem is that you basically always end up with something that is actually pretty hard to be skilled at, and because realistic gunplay results in more realistic conflicts, you soon realize that tactics and strategy are far, far more important and complex than most gamers or even most shooter games with AI are capable of.

Basically it wouldnt be fun, because it would be too difficult, and you often end up dying from a small, momentary situational awareness mistake.

To be fair I did have to do research after getting stuck on the magazine size inconsistency, and ended up learning the Tavor 7 is even a thing.

So half encyclopedia, half I know how to look things up I guess.

But thanks for the compliment! =)

Could be thats the original base of what’s in the image, but it would still need a bunch of aftermarket housing mods and tweaks and/or video gameification to actually match what’s in the image.

I am still unable to find any stock bullpup rifle that generally matches the thing in the image but comes stock with the foregrip seemingly as part of the whole trigger housing / bottom half of the barrel housing as well.

The Tavor 7 still seems the closest stock match to me though as the MDRx barrel housing has cutouts and a flared end for better grip properties, but those are not in the image.

Granted, the stock Tavor 7 barrel housing features the flared grip as well, but not the cut outs.

???

Which is another kind of terrible, DesertTech being owned by the Kingston family. The LDS Church and their infamous treatment of women…
