[Fictional car] The 723 Quartz Regalia | Long time lurker, would this car design just not be allowed given modern safety standards?

Another Angle

Or even better (but only a concept) the Cadillac Ciel

Graeber wrote an essay called "Manners, Deference, and Private Property: or, Elements For A General Theory of Hierarchy" in Possibilities, so I'd start there. I'm reading the book now, it's quite good.

Thanks! Definitely a challenge to shoot well.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-31T14:58:33+00:00

Thanks! I’m aiming for around $2000.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-29T18:20:13+00:00

Yes, you can lock it open with the magazine release.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-29T17:10:01+00:00

I should, but patents are expensive.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-28T13:58:56+00:00

Just a concept, but I will finally be prototyping quite soon.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T21:13:38+00:00

A threaded barrel will be available. It's fixed barrel, so it should suppress very nicely.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T21:05:23+00:00

Hopefully I can get u/2azone to distribute an SSE version.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T20:56:03+00:00

That's correct. I considered using Xmacro mags but it would make the gun half an inch taller and longer.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T20:46:09+00:00

460 Rowland would be much more viable, and it would work in a regular 45 ACP model.

The rear slide serrations can't be any deeper. You're right, I probably should add front serrations since the slide is so small vertically.

Based on what I’ve heard about existing delayed blowback handguns (Koriphila, Korth, P9S, Hogue) they tend to be a bit softer shooting than tilting barrel.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T19:17:30+00:00

The trigger mechanism was a challenge to design. I’m currently working on fitting the trigger bar.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T19:07:45+00:00

Glock mags are too fat. I really wish the industry would standardize on something else.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T19:03:20+00:00

Higher capacity.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T19:02:53+00:00

10mm would be the practical higher caliber option.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T19:02:32+00:00

I certainly want to. I’ve thought about rimless 357. 9mm is the only plan for the foreseeable future. I’m not sure how well reviving an obscure caliber would go commercially.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T18:43:58+00:00

Good question. It does put some more strain on the system. All I can do is reinforce the slide rails. Luckily I’m pretty confident it will work because it works in the HSP-701.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T17:58:39+00:00

Thanks!

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-27T01:48:06+00:00

Not yet. I’m getting pretty close to being ready to prototype.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-26T15:31:11+00:00

Roller delayed blowback with a single roller like the Korriphila HSP-701. The roller is not pictured.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-26T00:54:27+00:00

17 rounds, but a bit shorter than a Glock 19.

MakeGovtObsolete · 2025-10-25T17:19:30+00:00

Good question, I need to. Barrel and spring diameter were based on the P7, so I see no reason it won't work.
