TF2 - Polypack - Firestar1202

So I heard about this and had to give it a go, I've been wanting to see this primary in use for a while.

My pack is for the Scout, and might not make sense to you at first.
I'm kind of trying to go for a 'predecessor' theme, I'm not quite sure how to put it into words, hopefully you'll get it when you see my ideas.

First off is a modified old lever-action shotgun. As you can see in the picture, most of the stock is sawed off, and so is part of the barrel. This, IMO, would fit the Scout a lot better than a longer one.

It would have something like +25% accuracy, shots are more together, so it does more damage, but -25%, or 50% reload speed.

For the secondary, before I had a theme I was going to do a TMP, but I remembered the old Contendor G2. MGM357001.jpg
It's a single shot pistol, thats accurate and powerful. Most would immedately say, "That seems like more of a Sniper thing," but with the rifle already, he doesn't really need anything else like that.

I wanted to make a different secondary gun for the Scout, not a seventeenth cola, and I thought this would fit the theme. I've wanted him to actually have an accurate weapon, that deals a fair amount of damage. I was thinking something like 50 damage on a bshot, 100-120 on headshot. of course, the original pistol deals about 3, so maybe lessen those a bit. the thing is, the major drawback on the Contender is that it is a single-shot pistol, like I said. It won't have clips, instead will just have the reload anim, like the flare gun, or the sniper rifle.

I'm still not sure about the melee weapon. At first I wanted a cork bat, to fit the baseball theme of the Scout, but that didn't really fit my theme. I started going with a bat with a nail, or nails, but I remembered the Pain Train, and from just a bit of lookin around on this forum, everyone doing the Scout is doing a bat with nails.

If anyone has any ideas or feedback on mine, that'd be great, thanks!

    I like the sound of this, thematically they work together and the gameplay suggestions sound cool as well.

    Maybe for the melee you could make a makeshift club out of the sawn off barrel and stock? Just an idea because I couldn't think of any actual weapon that would match the other two. If not maybe just a plane old baseball bat that matches the guns aesthetically?

    I'd like to see what you do with these.

    my dad had a contender when i was growing up, used to take it to the range, kicked like a mule (i was like 10) his had a much longer barrel, and a scope

    Yeah, I thought a smaller, more compact version without a scope or anything would fit the Scout more.

    And I've been thinking about this kind of thing for a while, what if the melee weapon was just the Scout holding the barrel of the shotty and whacking people with the stock? They could make it so that, of course, as soon as you unlock the gun, you get the melee weapon, but you can't equip it unless the gun is equipped.
