Some context, I was playing a game called Fallout 4 the other day and for those of you who may bot know this is a game that takes place in America 200+ years after a nuclear war so that country is in complete ruin.
The game has many categories of weapons from 'Hunting' style firearms like bolt action rifles, and SXS shotguns, along with pre-war assault rifles, combat shotguns, laser rifles, miniguns, and even portable nuke launchers (inspired by the Davey Crockett)
One family of guns is called the Pipe Rifle and is a crude design that is more or less cobbled together by the wastelanders and various raiders.
Now, while generally building guns out of scrap material is a bad idea but what if the gun had an outward appearance of being cobbled together and stressed as if it had either survived or been built after the apocalypse but was of high quality and using modern manufacturing techniques?
Some would likely be blowbacks as they are simple and keep the overall design as 'crude' (for lack of a better word) as possible.
I suppose I'm asking if there would be a market for guns designed or customized in such a way that they had the appearance of something that Mad Max could pick up along his journey?
