Gun Spinning - Diversified

Gun Spinning has always been one of those things in most RedM servers that can either go well or really horribly.

I think that gun spinning/tricking is a good way to build suspense for some characters or to give off a “flashy” characteristic of those who wish to rolpelay flashy criminals or brazen lawmen.

What I think could change with gun spinning:

• Simply make it a time requirement for a character and make it have an eligibility via a ticket; Should your character meet the time requirement and have a proper reasoning for the gun spinning technique they can request it.

• Skill-checks, similar to how the reload system system a quick-time triggered event every few seconds would be required to continously spin their gun. This means people that can gun-spin don’t reasonably do it for 10 minutes as that would just be un-realistic.

• In relation to the ticketed aspect, make it so you have to ask for specific tricks and not one person has all the tricks. This means that your character may have perfected the behind the back toss but not any of the others; etc.

Finally, I close with the message that while yes, this is a very simple thing and also something not on the top of priority. It diversifies gun-spinning and makes it so people can not just “fidget-spinner” their gun. There would be skill checks in a repeated fashion the longer you do it. I think that adding a simple system like this in the future may help with certain criminals or lawmen or other roleplayers who are more keen with their firearms. I think overall it can add a bit of “fairness” to the server rather than “pay this guy 5k and ‘learn’ gunspinning”.

I like the suggestion, but important note;

If anyone is saying they will teach you tricks for really any amount of money, they are lying. As far as I’m aware, guntricks are only kept behind an RP wall, not a paywall. Having them behind a paywall is very icky
