What?! Where is Mal's pistol and Zoe's mare's leg?

Seriously, this is great. I love it. I want to print it and decopage (sp?) it on my shooting box.
Mal's pistol! Aw man, i forgot Serenity! OK, that's it, i can't let this go on without including something from Serenity. Maybe i'll slip in a Remington 700 somewhere. But that's it!! No more changes.
 
Couldn't we please have at least one blackpowder gun, for historical reasons...

A Hawken, A Colt Paterson or 1851...

...pretty please!?
 
TauZero, you have plenty of room if you remove some of the duplicates. Kimber Custom, for instance.

It depends on whether this chart is more revolutionary or evolutionary.
 
Okay okay, Tau, I like it. Thank you for putting in the work to do something clever like this! I was joking about not having the Remington 700 on there, but it seems to have sparked some criticisms and for that I apologize.

Everyone else, he couldn't possibly have thought of every gun, and even if he could, he could not have fit them onto the periodic table. Lets give credit where credit is due, huh?

Hey, no problem! I knew there would be a lot of opinions, and they're pretty good. Everyone is just having fun, and that was the whole idea. That simple fact means people are looking at it and thinking about it, which is pretty cool.
 
If you changing things you may as well replace the LCR with a S&W 642.
Well, 4 out of 15 revolvers are S&W, so they're pretty well represented and i wanted more variety. They are also in order by year they came out (or pretty close to it). The LCR was one of the latest major brand revolvers to hit the market, so i put it last.
 
I didn't mean that as a criticism, I think your chart is awesome. Makes a lot of sense hearing your reasoning for it. Might have to be a background on my laptop for a while if you are okay with people downloading it.
 
OK, i changed the AKM to AKS and i removed the plasma pistol from Stargate and replaced it with a sonic rifle from Firefly.

I also checked the link, and it's working.

Glad you all liked it!:)

As soon as a new class of elements are added to the Periodic Table, the blackpower guns are in.
 
Excellent Table!

Awesome. Goes right next to my Periodic Table of Perl Operators and the more recent Periodic Table of Beers.


+1 to the Tom Leherer reference.

Need to find a way to splice that together with It Makes A Fellow Proud To Be A Soldier (lyrics here).
He's real R.A. material, and he was glad to swap
His switchblade and his old zip gun
For a bayonet and a new M-1
It makes a fellow proud to be a soldier!


But "Zip Gun" would need to be added to the Table.

And the bayonet?

Someone with too much time on his hands needs to concoct a Periodic Table of Sharp & Pointy Things.

:D

 
I kind of pictured Leherer's Elements for this table.

What got me started was the "Periodic Table of Meat" and the "Periodic Table of Irrational Nonsense."
