Description
Prop Name:Gallian-S20R Rifle with Randgrizer M Rifle Grenade
Source:
Valkyria Chronicles (Sega)
Prop Notes:
It took me about a total of 3 months (2 hrs weekdays and 5 hrs weekends) to construct the rifle using the game and its artbook as reference. Materials used to make it are colored paper, cardboard, foamcore, dowels, electric tape, white glue, hot glue, and a hollow plastic tube from a Halloween prop. These materials keep the prop light; it weighs no more than the average water bottle.

In-Game Weapon Specifications:
- Gallian-S Series Rifle
Caliber - 7.92mm
Clip Size - 5 shots
Firing accuracy was the focal point when developers created this daughter to the original Gallian. Its construction is 90% identical to that of its parent.
Each part was farmed out to craftsmen specializing in various fields, combining to create a finely-tuned gun.
The barrel was also extended to an unusually extreme length to ensure a stable firing trajectory.
The S20R variant is a reward weapon. Reward weapons are high-quality weapons that are granted to squads that perform exceptionally well in battle. Though all of Gallia's weapons are manufactured in the best weapons manufacturing plants, they are not all created equal, and some turn out better than others. These special weapons were gathered up and painted with a special Gallian color scheme.
- Randgrizer M Rifle Grenade
Caliber - 24mm / 1shot
A launching device developed as a way to propel hand grenades greater distances.
Early designs that had grenades loaded directly into the gun's muzzle prevented conventional firing, and the recoil from the grenades often bent the barrel. The solution came in the form of this under-barrel type, which allowed users to fire the rifle and grenade independently.
Built to be the crowning glory of the Gallian-type rifles it affixed to, these grenades were named after Gallia's capital.

I always thought most of the rifle designs were too bulky. Also the reload would be awkward with the magazine so close to the trigger.

If you thought these designs were bulky, then I wonder what you would say about the guns from Borderlands.
Most of the designs are based off of WWII guns.Β WWII rifles are rather heavy and unwieldy though lots of fun to use.

Looks pretty great, though when you compare the magazine size with the fact that it's only suppose to hold 5 shots... that doesn't really compute. XD

Yeah. I always found that kind of strange in the game. Each upgrade gives you a bigger magazine but you still get 5 shots a turn. Maybe all the Gallians have the same fire rate?

This is totally beautiful! And the materials are very artisan-friendly. Can I assume that a cosplayer with one of these at a con would have no problems with "weapon replica" rules (even it being so well done)? I wonder if I could transport something like this by plane, their rules are always so strict...
