Model description:   An oversized magnum revolver inspired by
                     that popularized by the Dirty Harry movie                              
                     series. Modified and made ridiculously
                     large to fit the Q3 motif/models.                                              
                     Replaces the railgun.

* How to use this model *

Place the wep7-handcannon.pk3 and in your quake3/baseq3 folder, and 
start q3. All railguns will now be handcannons. In the impossible 
case you would like to see the old railgun, simply move the 
wep7-handcannon.pk3 out of the baseq3 folder.
