I’d say about 90% of rifles look like this…

Its from honor of the waves, kodan. Sadly they don’t all look like that. There are three kinds of rifles.

1. Traditonal rifles. Often slender model, such as the kodan. The details and uniqueness of the weapon is found in the stock/ parts away from the muzzle. Some are just overall very detailed and cool
2. Once shotgun rifles. Before the game was released, engineers wore heavy armor and were going to use a weapon class known as shotgun. Anet decided not to do this and combined the models. This is why some weapons look a lot like shotguns.
3. Environmental Weapon Rifles. These are weapons you can find in game that are environmental weapons that can be used and have special affects. They often look really cool, but them shooting a projectile makes no sense.

That’s nice and all but I’m referring to the size of the weapons. The rifle/shotguns are extremely small and unimpressive. I do agree that the design of some of them are amazing like the kodan rifle, but that’s overshadowed by their size. Hence the Charrzookas price point.

It makes a certain amount of sense (though the fact that longer rifles like the Charrzooka do exist renders my argument moot, admittedly): if you’re being attacked by a melee mob standing right in front of you, you can still hit it… with a long rifle, you’re hitting it even though the muzzle is sticking out on the other side of the mob.
