It is also featured in the Syphon Filter games, where it is low-powered but extremely accurate in full auto because it has such a small amount of recoil. I’d love one for the novelty of it, historical interest, and also has a fun gun. If it is accurate enough it seems like it would be good for pest control as well.

“What I found really interesting is that the press releases mentions that the gun is features in video games. I have not seen this before. I think most companies want to distance themselves from violent video games.”

I guess they know their target market well?

“You also got stupid politicians, liberal reporters, and liberals in general”

…Wasn’t that needlessly redundant?

The Klobb!!
It was the weakest weapon of Goldeneye. I still remember when I killed my cousin with it while he had the golden gun. =D

Yeah I use that gun alot in Call of Duty 4, especially with the silencer. Its great for close quarters and ambushes. Althought Ive never shot one of these in real life, in the game, this thing empties its magazine so fast and it lacks stopping power. Over all its a good game…at least in game

Video games, TV Shows, and movies are the best ways to promote your products. Firearms are no exception to the rule.

The dark side of this is you got a lot of game kiddies that thinks HK is god gift to the world. You also got stupid politicians, liberal reporters, and liberals in general that think what they see and play on the screen is real.

During the uprising in Prague in ‘68, Soviet state security personnel used the suppressed version to liquidate crowd agitators, leaders of the uprising, and speakers. It is an effect weapon in that capacity; high cyclic rate, controllable with multiple hit capability, and reasonably quiet.

The gun from Goldeneye 64 which was called the Klobb was supposed to be the scorpion. I didn’t know it was a .32 ACP. It was almost everyone’s least favorite gun in the game because it was so weak and inaccurate, not that that means anything in real life.

The even more amazing thing is I can’t recall a video game that has a Scorpion in it and I’ve played a lot of them.
