SWAG VBC 6.8 Folded

Description

This is the Specialist Weapons and Arms Guard Variable Bullpup Config 6.8, or for short the S.W.A.G. VBC 6.8.

Boasting fully ambidextrous design features including the charging handle, Mag release, and Fire mode selector which are all located on the top, back or underside of the gun, while there is a bolt catch on either side of the receiver and a lever at the back that rotates the firing chamber 180 degrees so you can change the direction of ejection in a flash. The rotating bolt is cylindrical so it can slide in and out of the chamber no matter which angle it is at.

Features a 15 inch barrel for carbine and a 20 inch barrel for DMR (Carbine version shown here).

Uses a short stroke gas piston design for maximum reliability - The gases are blasted out the front of the gas tube once used; instead of building up on the inside of the receiver like the popular AR15 design, which uses a direct impingement blowback type.

Comes without ironsights, but with an ACOG sight and a red dot sight (ACOG shown here) instead, which can be used separately or (if desired) together thanks to the extended rails on top the receiver.

Comes with the short handguard plus the 3 rails shown so a multitude of attachments can be added; Flashlights, Grips, Laser pointers, IR pointers, you name it.

Also comes with the stock; the stock is adjustable so fit the operator comfortably.

The magwell will take any STANAG or PMAG magazines, but you can buy the green magazine to suit the colour scheme of the gun (If you so desire, this is optional).

I'll bring out a render soon so everyone can see it all shiny and such, and probably another image showing it with the RDS, 20 inch barrel and Folded too.

In this image you can see it folded with the internals exposed. A plastic cap can be fitted over the exposed areas to prevent crap getting inside, although I'll probably implement a built in wall blocking most of the gaps later.

You can also see the cover for the Charging Handle runners at the top, as mentioned in the last picture.

And finally this picture is shown with the 20 inch DMR Barrel installed (Its changable with a 15 inch carbine barrel; you twist it to take it out. The threading is in the front half of the gun, so the barrel at the fold stays the same with no complicated stuff).


Some Stats:

Action: Gas Blowback, w/ piston

Barrel Length: 15 inch (Carbine)

20 inch (DMR)

Effective Range: 450m w/ RDS

650m w/ ACOG

Muzzle velocity: 810 m/s (2,650 ft/s)

Rate of fire: 850 rounds/min

Feed system: 30-round detachable STANAG/PMAG box magazine

Weight: 5Kg (Loaded with DMR barrel and ACOG)

3.5Kg (Loaded with Carbine barrel and RDS)

Also big up to SuperGonz/FrostByte for helping me choose where to put some of the features.

UPDATE:

In response to comments I have updated the VBC.

I have changed the calibre from 5.56 NATO to 6.8 Remington SPC.

Enlarged the rear of receiver for better flow of Bolt Carrier.

Made Charging Handle taller and slightly wider for easier use.

Added a cover to the Charging Handles grooves/runners which works like a zip.

Lovely way to jam up the innards.
