OBOW: Magnum - Desert Eagle Gritty Realism script

Description
OBOW: Pronounced "oboe" (yes, like the instrument), it stands for "Overseer's Balance Overhaul for Weapons".

This is a script that rebalances the Desert Eagle, turning it into a realistic IMI Desert Eagle mark XIX. It'll be a reliable, accurate, and deadly weapon. This script is actually a variant of my Desert Eagle Handcannon script, aimed at those who prefer a more gritty realistic approach, hence the name. It's loaded with .50 Action Express ammunition, which gives it a true-to-real-world 7-round magazine. It does a bit more damage than the Handcannon script, to compensate for fewer rounds per magazine. Piercing has been raised by one layer for the same reason. Basically, the Desert Eagle will feel like a powerful and realistic large-caliber handgun.

Here's the list of stat changes:

VerticalPunch - 4.0 to 5.0
SpreadPerShot - 2 to UNCHANGED
MaxSpread - 30 to 20
SpreadDecay - 5 to 10
MinDuckingSpread - 0.5 to 0.25
MinStandingSpread - 1.25 to 0.4
MinInAirSpread - 3.0 to 2.0
MaxMovementSpread - 3.0 to 2.0
ReloadDuration - ? to 1.75 (Vanilla value unknown, since I had to add this line)
DeployDuration - 0.5 to 0.3
PenetrationNumLayers - 2 to 4
PenetrationPower - 50 to 95
PenetrationMaxDistance - 0 to 3500
Damage - 80 to 200
Range - 3500 to UNCHANGED
RangeModifier - 0.75 to UNCHANGED
Bullets - 1 to UNCHANGED
CycleTime - 0.3 to 0.25
clip_size - 8 to 7

I disagree with Billy, don't nerf the scripts accuracy. If something MUST be done, simply remove the crosshair (I don't actually know if thats simple or possible at all but I hope so) that way it is realistic but not overpowered.

I have a few critiques of this script. If youre going for an accurate depiction of a desert eagle, I think youve drastically overbuffed it with this script. The damage is quite high, but this is ok if the accuracy of the weapon reflects this.

It doesn't.

I get the feeling that when you made this script you wanted to change the magnum to be more of a sniper rifle that fits in the secondary slot, which is fine. However, the fact that i can run and gun with it and have better accuracy than an smg is a bit ridiculous. I think that the spread decay and max movement spread should be set back to their original values.

TL;DR: script makes it too accurate, nerf pls

One's a .44, one's a .50 AE. And they're fired from different weapons, with different barrels, therefore they have different muzzle velocities/energies, different stopping power, right?

@ShadowX & Falerin:
You find it odd that the two mods have the same damage values?

OBOW "Revolver" script, presumably a S&W Model 29, .44 Magnum - 200 damage per shot.
OBOW "Desert Eagle" script, MRI / IMI Desert Eagle Mark XIX, .50 AE - 200 damage per shot.

.........................................What?

Oh my god, I love it when people have the "As long as you're happy, I'm happy." approach to... Well... Anything.
Anyways, cheers, I'll be off shooting zombies.

I have a feeling you're right. I'm loving this so much I'm probably spending an unhealthy amount of time on it. xD I've been doing the same for Serious Sam Fusion, making an OBOW for MONTHS, and that mod still isn't done yet. I could probably upload it already. Maybe I should... I'll think about it.

As for modifying my script, feel free! This mod is mostly for my own use, but I've made a bunch that are aimed at what other's want. This script woundn't exist without someone having requested it. So yeah. Modify it to your heart's content, so long as you get a better gaming experience, I'm happy. :)

Jesus Christ... You're probably the person who likes modifying these scripts the most, much like how I like to poke your's, usually when I have a mod that I want to adjust the clip size on or something.
