The Bulk Cannon

As explained in the "Pulse Energy Weapons" video, there have been some issues being brought up in the comments of some previous releases regarding such issues as having the guns not shoot at all, or not being able to move, or something crazy. I'd like to re-iterate my PSA and say that these issues are NOT caused by the weapons or base itself. The weapons work perfectly as intended. If you experience any issues, perhaps it might be time to clean out any unused addons. Some weapon bases don't play well with TFA.

The Bulk Cannon is the world's most popular Break-Action Revolving Automatic Shotgun, as gathered by the near 500,000 people (and plenty more uncounted) who are subscribed to the older version. A collaboration between TS Industries and Babel Industries, the Bulk Cannon shook the world of Garry's Mod sweps back in 2013, and now it's come back for some rebound action. As per Babel Industries standard, it's still an extremely powerful weapon.

7 12-Gauge shells can be fired rapidly in 1.9 seconds thanks to its revolver mechanism via an
electromagnetic spinning apparatus. The rail serves as magnet conductor to accelerate the speed of the pellets, making them go twice as fast; Easily making any tough enemy as weak as balsa wood.
The Bulk Cannon is a perfect close range weapon,but it takes quite a while to reload. The heat coming up from the rail conductor strongly glows in the dark - this could compromise your cover if you're planning any ambushes in dark areas.

• Reloading animations AND sounds have been fixed - No more double-closing or awkward sounds!
  
• The firerate has been accelerated by about 10%.
  
• You can now close mid-reload in the event of an interruption.
  
• The Bulk Cannon's worldmodel is larger, giving a more sizable, intimidating look.
  
• It's on the TFA base, rather than the old, decrepit Mad Cow base.

The Bulk Cannon is a simple weapon to use. All that needs to be done is shoot and you'll be on your way to decimating your enemies in no time. To activate the safety, just press E, R, and M1. To use Ironsights, press M2.

The map is officially known as gm_babeltest. It's a majorly-improved version of my old map, gm_sweptest. Currently, I don't feel as if it's ready for public use just yet. For now, I'm just using it for videos.
