Is carrying a rifle on your side like that actually a thing? If so whats it called?
Uncomfortable
>>29947849
No.
You sling your rifle on your back. once you git good it's easy to grab, like a gun slinger.
>>29947849
>what's it called?
Whatever that stupid ass open carry movement a little while back was called.
>>29947849
With one point sling you can do that. Only reason to do it is if you need to do something with both hands or want to draw your sidearm. Moving with it like that is uncomfortable as fuck, introduces sand to the barrel and drops your mag when it hits something.
I've actually carried my rifle like that for years, i find it is better with the magizine facing upwards tho it keeps the weapon mostly stationary while moving and running and allows to quickly be drawn by grabbing the stock and bringing it to your shoulder it can be almost as quick as a pistol draw
>>29947849
Yes and no.
Yes its a thing that is done. No it is not portrayed correctly.
When you have a single point sling or tactical sling and a side arm, and transition to that sode arm you push the rifle across your body like big boss does. To be more accurate, its kind of fling the rifle across you/ just drop it then push it later when its safe to do so.
there is no operator in real life that walks around a combat zone like this. Even on a FOB this would be uncomfortable, and on a mission this would be stupid.

ftfy
even by MGS3, the gun nerd on the producer roll (i forget his name) was on his way out and thats actually why the series got so ridiculous after 3 -- it was all kojima's doing, not Shinji Mechazowa or whoever.
same goes for the mech designs, they got less sensible because the guy who literally designed the original Rex and Ray irl left
kojima is a hack and deserves nothing

Motosado Mori got fired?
Isn't his name still in the credits?

You're retarded.

>The receiver's been polished to a near mirror sheen
fun fact
The AR-15 clone in MGSV (AM-69) doesn't have a bolt catch.
However, the NPC reload animation for the gun has the characters reloading the gun in the AR-15 manner, including a palm slap to the bolt catch as the final step.
The mocap was done by ex-mil actors, who were given AR-15 props to do their mocap work with. Snake has his own mocap actor, and racks the charging handle every reload.

What did he mean by this
>>29947849
Japanese military consultants who've heard about guns and tactics but have never so much as held one outside a firing range.
>>29949060
Mori was a SWAT instructor, if I recall.
>>29948780
I thought it was feed lips.
>>29948740
And now you know the truth.
>>29948988
its a misquote from Snake Eater.
>the feed ramp is polished to a mirror sheen
basically you take a dremel to the feed ramp with the polish attachment and make it shine like a mirror. This supposedly helps with feeding, but unless your feed ramp has a sandpaper finish to it, I dont think it makes much of a difference. Its kinda one of those custom touches that is an old wives tale that went mainstream, to the point that most 1911 feed ramps have some shine to them.
it's just a one point sling, broham.

I'm gonna make this real one day.
First Spear weapon retention catch. It's a real thing. First Spear does some pretty good stuff, even if I get kinda salty about my STT sometimes.
>>29949250
Or buy an ar18 and say "close enough"?
>>29949297
Get issued a variant of that, it's just a Velcro band that wraps around a stiffened half belt. Keeps the barrel/hand guard close to the hip. You don't generally cross sling it though.

>>29949143
Feed ramps used to be a problem with one of our local police departments. Probably about as much to do with the ammo they were shooting as the gun, but polishing the feed ramps got the cops to shut up and stop bringing them in
>>29949472
Your autism would have told you that the guns aren't real in the first place and you'd have made a mod that changes the gun models and names

AFAIK, Big Boss uses muscle memory to aim. Part of that is putting his right eye where it would be if he still had it.

>Perpetuating the baseless meme in the current year
There are no licensing costs associated with real firearms in video games. There never has been. The few games that did buy rights for logos (MW3, one of those recent MoH games) did so to be able to market using the "real guns" aspect as a selling point, not because they were obliged to. MGSV having fake guns was only ever an artistic decision and ultimately probably cost them more because of the artists having spend time creating weapon designs from scratch, instead of just modeling based off a picture they pulled off google images.
