Use for the Screwdriver

[Draco122 412]

Just had a minor idea for more a utility role with the Screwdriver.

 

When mounting weapon attachments on weapons, I believe that in order to actually attach some of these attachments is to use a screwdriver to detach items and reattach the new ones.

 

For items such as Optics and Stocks you need a screwdriver to remove and re-attach these items. The MP5K and M4A1 could be the exempt from requiring a screwdriver to remove the Stock or Hand guard as the nature of the construction allows individuals to remove them without any special tools (although irl it does make it easier), however you'd still need a screwdriver to attach optics.

 

So what do people think? Would it make the Screwdriver more useful in a sense that has a much grander utility role than just being used as an extremely poor improvised weapon.

Many guns have mag rails like the M4 and the AK. The pistol flash lights sort of clip on. Very few guns have attatchments that can screw on/off. They're either on for good, or you can remove them easily with a rail system. In real life it doesn't serve you well to have to screw an ACOG onto your M4 if you're in the deserts of Iraq in the middle of fighting insurgents.

Actually most of the rail attachments on riffle use screw system, look this : http://www.armyproperty.com/Equipment-Info/Pictures/ACOG.jpg

Or look for any attachment, some of them use clips http://www.nitevis.com/images/MILSIGHT_T90_TaN_01.jpg some other screw that we can screw on with hand : http://www.gandrtactical.com/images/archive/SF/M78.JPG

But plenty use screw http://i00.i.aliimg.com/wsphoto/v0/375774238/Tactical-30mm-Low-Rifle-Scope-Mark-4-Weaver-Mount-Ring-21mm-Base-Fit-Aimpoint-Leupold-Style.jpg or like this : http://lib.opticsplanet.com/leapers-space-age-rings.jpg

So its hard to say which are are the most common...

The idea with the screwdriver are not bad, but i think it is not a good idea until small object take less place than actually with a new inventory system, cause in real life we can (for example) fit WAY MORE than 40 screw driver inside a huge backpack, and a pen or a can opener take way less place than a can...

And with more object that are needed without more place to fit them it will become a hell to play if we want to play alone or don't have our friend with the complementary equipment with him !
