Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

Jetpacks do, infact, exist. They do not last very long, but he could still use one.

take it easy baby take it as it comes

Boba would use the AS50 which is a semi auto sniper rifle that can shoot clean through 2 metal plates concrete and is also as acurate as a spring bolt rifle

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

He'd have a concealed sidearm hidden somewhere, probably a PPK.

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

Walther ppk? No, too weak. IMI Desert Eagle in .50AE, .44 magnum, .357 magnum. Or the Jerico 941 (a.k.a. The Baby Eagle) in 9mm, .40S&W, or  the 45ACP. He'd probably use the new dragon skin armor, it can withstand a heavy beating from 7.62x39 AP, and 5.56 AP rounds.

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

Ah, hadn't heard of the baby Eagle.  I was choosing the PPK because of concealability.  And since the Baby Eagle is smaller and packs much more of a punch I guess it would be the natural choice.

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

i imagine fett would have swat gear, night vision, the whole nine. but nothing heavy. fett needs his mobility.

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

No way a Desert Eagle they are terrible weapons. For a close combat weapon it would have to be a Katana.

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

Unless there is also a gun called a katana, I do not think that Fett would use it. He never used light-sabers, so I do not see why he would use a sword. Perhaps a wakizashi.

take it easy baby take it as it comes

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

He has got light sabers he may have used them, but he has wrist blades and has probaby used swords or long knives in combat before. If he used a sword that is probably what he would use though.

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

A katana would be a waste of space. If he did use a sword, it would likely be a wakizashi, which is shorter than a katana.

take it easy baby take it as it comes

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

I don't think Boba would use swords, the closest to blades he would use would be his wrist blades possibly a KA-BAR knife hidden in his boot.

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

I once had a weird dream where I saw Boba Fett fighting of a bunch of rabid moose, and he was using an MP40 and dual Colt .45s from WWII.

"None of this is really happening. There is a man. With a typewriter. This is all part of his crazy imagination."

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

But besides that, I think that he would use a Barret M-107. That's the most powerful sniper EVER! It is so strong, one shot can cut a man in half! It can fire 7 shots in 10 seconds (or 10 shots in 7 seconds; I always mix those up so much, I'm not even sure which one is right), and has more than a mile and a half range.

I would like to know that aswell; I looked it up on a myriad of sites and I cannot find that.

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

WOW--um to say you guys know your weapons would be an understatement.

I don't know much about guns, but I could see him with an AK47 or Gatling gun.  As for melee weapons...I could see him using something a katana, but I do agree from previous posts that that kind of sword might be too long for his taste/use.  Pretty much anything MI  would do.

I saw this story from space.com a while back  :
http://www.space.com/businesstechnology … rrior.html

Interesting.

Oh yeah, jetpacks do exist--did you guys see the Rose Parade this year (aside from all the Star Wars stuff AND Boba!)?  I think I read there is one kind that is powered by the quick breakdown of hydrogen peroxide by silver.  The "exhaust" is steam and oxygen.  But the flight time is limited depending on the person's carrying capacity for the necessary fuel supply.  There's a few others I read about on Wikipedia. 

I could picture Boba in a Hummer.  NOT one of those sissy Hummers that have never been off-road--a REAL Hummer.

Ohhhh reading all this, I'm getting an idea for another topic thread...

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

Did you see the vehicle I posted? I can definately see him driving that. And draco, on that link it says M82/M107. Basically the same gun.

"This IS my signature."

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

yes Jetpacks exist they've existed for a while now basically you have 2 tanks each connected by a tube that goes down and splits into 2 which are the thrusters each tank contains a different chemical one goes in first and then the othe goes in causing a small explosion carried down the pipe and creates thrust lifting you off the ground. As to which chemicals are in it 6hey are still testing many different chemicals, one of the most common though is hydrogen peroxideor some thing like that. However it is pretty big and I don't think Boba would wear it.

I could be wrong cuz this is all off the top off my head from when I read a Science Magazine. Yes, I'm into science it's what makes us know the world goes round.

I don't think sniper's would even need to fire 7 rounds in 10 seconds.  The most snipers would need would be like 5 shots at the most.  And just for the record, the farthest shot was done by a Canadian at a range of a mile and a half.  Our Canadians may not have the best equipped but we sure are trained good. wink

Re: If Boba used earth weapons.......

Okay,my older brother who use to be a cop( some of you know him as Infamous) said that a K-bar would definately be the blade of choice.  SIG Sauer for a handgun,CAR-15( a shortie version of the M-16),and a MP5 machine pistol.They are light weight,sturdy and workman like...

Then you would add on body armor and visual and audio aids,and demolitions according to the job,and perhaps a little hazmat gear.He said Fett would want to be efficient not over burdened with unnecessary gear.Think SWAT team or Navy SEAL.
