Manurhin MR 73

May I introduce you to the MR73, a story worth telling. This tool was not made for cowboys or maximum bling factor, this is an actual service revolver commissioned by the French GIGN. It gained infamy along with the unit during the hostage rescue of flight 8969 and is known for its immaculate reliability and durability.
.
This was an amazing project and story to research, which is why I decided to put in some extra "storytelling" without it being the usual tally mark and blue sharpie, which I refuse to ever use unironically.
.
The game-ready model and textures were made within 1 month as a test for my practical speed.
Weapon was animated by my friend hoider with the rig from CoD MW2R.
Rock asset is from megascans, all other background assets are made by me.

Special thanks to Simon Mercuzot for feedback, Hoider for the animations and meme, and Rift for the weapon audio

You read to the end? Absolute madlad, have a wonderful day!

A small tribute, but the best I could come up with, to the 11 GIGN operators injured while retaking flight 8969 and saving 173 hostages. It is a truly remarkable story and I cannot recommend looking it up enough. PS, put on the sound, the music is epic!

Watch out, it'll be loud

This is what you get for going all the way to the bottom
