BrickArms New Weapons Contest - Name Them & Claim Them!

by BrickArms (ABS Accessories)

BrickArms is pleased to announce the arrival of 2 new weapons to the BrickArms line.

The weapons are in hand, and will make their official debut on October 6th at NW BrickCon in Seattle, where they will be available for sale at the Brick Bazaar.  They will be available for sale online October 9th.

How can you get them before then?  Here's how:  Name them, and claim them! It is that easy.  If you can guess what the weapons are, you will win the new weapons and all of the existing BrickArms weapons in a new 8-pack in Black, Gray, and Limited-Edition Nickel Metallic.

The contest will run from NOW until 11:59pm on September 22nd.  Guess as many times as you like, and the first person to guess them both correctly, wins.  I will ship your weapons immediately following the contest, and you will be the first to have them weeks ahead of everyone else.

Here's a photo to help you.

NOTE: There are a few of you that already know what they are.  You are not allowed to guess.  You will receiving your own sets (nickel metallic, included).  But, you already know that, right? ;)

Good luck to everyone else who enters.

UA: Try Again.  This is not a hint, but you will need to be specific as to the weapon model - 'SMG from HalfLife 2' will not suffice. :)

Emily: Keep trying.  The Cx4 Storm is beautiful weapon though. :)

You mean, like HK MP5 and HK MP7? :D Guess that's not the answer, though...

I can't speak FOR Will, but I don't think he cares if you get the company name (H&K, for instance) so long as you get the model (for instance MP5, MP5N, M4A2, etc) correct.

UA: No, you missed it again!  The MP7 is a beauty, though. 

Crazy Boy: Nope. Keep guessing!

I think I see a MP5 and a US M40A1 Sniper(thats the rifle I suggested on your other thread). And the winner gets three 8 packs you say? Very exciting. -Pac

Pac: Nope, incorrect.  Please try again!

And to answer your question, yes, the winner will receive three 8-packs : One in black, one in gray, and one in nickel metallic.

Oh sweetness thats 24 awesome guns(that I wish I had enough money to order)! And while I am posting the comment on sweetness, I will also guess- MP5 and a FAMAS. -Pac

Now we're getting into -my- wishlist. The FA MAS has the magazine set behind the hand -- which is proving to be virtually impossible to make functional for a LEGO fig. But the FA MAS is a personal favourite of mine, so I'm trying to make it work.

In short, Will's new gun isn't a FA MAS.

Ooh, I have a moderator moderating my contest!  

Damien is right - neither weapon is an FA MAS.

And, yes, he is "one of those that knows" the identities of the mystery weapons.  

But, before you start thinking "Ooh!  He's only human, surely he can be bought!", think again!  He is made of stiffer stuff.  He has backbone made of the finest carbon steel, and won't bend to the slightest petty persuasion or flattery.  By the way, Damien, have I told you how much I like your decals?

Who ever this other schmuck is, I'd bet he'd accept good money to reveal the secret of the new weapons.  Yep, I'm sure he'd be willing to trade that bit of information for a whole truck-load of cash .  Just a nice wad of folding money mailed right to his door.  Yes sir, I'm sure that would be all it would take . . . big, fat cashiers check made out to his favorite charity: him.  Yeah, buncha greenbacks stacked high to the ceiling.

I love the week before my credit card bill is due.

Haha. Flattery will get you everywhere Will. And give me -some- credit, of course I can be bought. I am partial to Cadbury Eggs, Balvenie Doublewood Scotch, and Yoohoos. Let the bidding for my loyalty begin!

;)

And it's not an SA80 or a Chinese Type 05 SMG.

This contest is a very educational thing - I've learned more about guns in the last two days than in the last two years! So far, I've figured out that:

This is not a Counter-Strike weapon.
It has no or a very small magazine in the front.
It is not a sniper rifle.

How many of the statements above are true? ;) Any hints appreciated!

EDIT: In the mean time, gotta try HK G11 & MP5

I must concur with Victor.  I thought I was pretty firearm savy, but I too have learned a lot.  For example.... did you know that Spain makes a pistol called the "Llama"?

UA: Not HK G11

Recluse: Not Vikhr SR-3

Ok, so you all know one of them is an MP5.  I see you remember the posts I made earlier this year.

I confess to making one red herrring statement in a post last month, concerning the second gun, so no cheating -  you'll have to identify the second gun by using the photo alone.

Hint #1: There is something in the photo (besides the scope) that should help you.  Is that a triangular shape that the barrel protrudes from?  Hmm, what weapon has that distinctive end profile?

Hint #2: It is one of the guns on the web page link in Recluse's "Educate Yourself" post.
