Like it says. So far I've found…

Scotia Grendel: Void 1.1 Syntha, Viridian, Vasa, Junkers weapons packs. (Anyone know who's distributing this in USA? thier USA shipping is redculous!)

GW: Bits, etc. We all know about this one.

Wyrd: Sells a weapon pack

Hasslefree: Sells a variety of Sci-Fi guns for both their Grymm S-dwarves as well as various Human weapons packs.

Pig Iron: Sells a pack of their futuristic Assault rifles.

So who else is there?

Oh forgot the Reaper Futuristic Weapons set.

The Assault Group have excellently scaled AK47s. While not really sci-fi, I doubt anyone will argue whether the AK will be used in "near future".

ordinarybass09 Nov 2009 10:10 a.m. PST

Wow, there's some really cool stuff you folks came up with. I like those Heresy assault rifles, and the Reaper and RAFM stuff is cool also.

I just found The Assault Group.

theassaultgroup.co.uk Seems like these guys make everything!

So many guns, so little time…

Edit: looks like we posted TAG at the same time! Ak47's are great for near future, and alot of the ak47/m16/bullpup/mp5 weapons are available in kitted out versions that have a very near-future or even futuristic look.

We do some sci/fi guns as well….

Hmmm…

Dick, did you mean "flea pits"?

Just wondered, heh.

Some plastic model companies do modern weapon sets in 1/32 (Tamiya?).

Too big, you say? Try a few--I did M16s equiping some old beakie Space Marines and thought they looked pretty good. I gave AKs to Orks--they looked pretty neat too. It is b3ecaue whaqt passes for 28mm figs are so NOT human-proportioned.

Yeah, I've bought some 1/35 scale accessory sets for conversion fodder. Most scifi games I play (40k, Warzone, Vor) have such oversized weapons that a customized 1/35th scale gun looks pretty good in the hands of a 28mm figure.

Well, I'm trying to:

Uesugi,
I've been watching that thread. If it were available now, it would be my first choice. With a little luck it or a modern version like it might be included in the upcoming "near future armed civilians set". Hoping, hoping, hoping.

Uesugi Kenshin Supporting Member of TMP10 Nov 2009 4:44 p.m. PST

Yeah, its chuggin along at 27% done. I think once some of their SF/NF sets are released (Greatcoats/ Civilians ;-)
then the interest in having multiple weapons options will kick in and this one will take off. Thanks for the continued support!

Thanks for all the help folks. I was especially looking at ways to get futuristic asault rifles and shotguns. I'll probably try some of the sets above, but last night I took a look at my warzone plastics and realized that I have all the shotguns and assault rifles (and miniguns) that I could need.

The Imperial assault rifles are pretty obvious, but the Bauhaus rifle is a near perfect pump shotgun with the upper handle and lower magazine removed.

For shotguns you can pick up the GW 40k space marine scout sprues for cheap. The hands are not too tough to carve off the guns.

I gave them to my plastic Cadians to make them Arbiters.
