Will post more schematic and description pics if requested.

1911 truly has an indefinite lifespan. If it's been just fine for the past 268 years, then nothing will replace it.

Realized the text might be a bit small to read. I'll transpose.
> The M4A3, with its older variants, has been the USCM standard sidearm for the past 60 years. It is a 9mm automatic, recoil operated, magazine fed hand weapon. The working mechanism is made of steel alloy with some plastic parts and the outer casing is machined from lightweight alloys. The entire weapon, including a full 12 round magazine waves no more than 0.95 kg. The cartridge is a 9mm ball rimless straight round with a bullet weight of 126 grain (8.2 gram). Since the effectiveness of the round, even at close range, is limited against targets wearing body armor, a new ammunition - the M901 - is being introduced, which consists of a sub caliber metal core encased in a high-impact resin bullet. Upon impact, the resin case breaks apart, allowing the core to penetrate the target armor; however, some problems are being experienced with the terminal ballistics of this round, and full introduction is not expected for another year.

>implying the youngsters of /k/ would give two shits about it unless it was adapted into a videogame
Yes I know. That little fact changes nothing.
The M42A sniper rifle.
The M41A Pulse rifle has 3-4 pages of text alone, if any of you want to see. Includes grenade schematics for the rifle.
