      I would first ask you age?  Then if your in school?
      Some of the subjects, that I would be ;

      The History of Weapons. This would tell you of some of the pitfalls, some of the designers had.  Welding, Machine Shop,  The Study of Metal.  Engineering, and Blueprinting.  And of course Math.

      I would also read up on the different manufactures of firearms.

      Firearm and Weapons, has advanced from the Flintlock and Black Powder,  but neverless, you still have to deal with pressures,

      Hope this helps

          You're right joker. Mechanical Engineering courses will give you the fundamentals of Machining. It will probably go more into depth though with the Metallurgy and Blueprint reading courses.

          The reason I say this is because I am a CNC Machinist/Programmer. When I was in college, the Engineering students had to take a few machining courses, but a majority of their time was spent learning about metals and blueprint drawing/reading.

          wait..........which highschool do you go to...


          as far as designing weapons, just google it. Theres bound to be results. I'd suggest to learn all you can about guns (more than you learn playing MW2) and how they work.

                  He Sayz That Military Is A Life Of Risk And Never Join It.


                  He's totally NUTS! obviously the Miltary doesn't intend to recruit people to actually go out and fight! NOPE! those advertisements and the recruiting officers are totally truthful when they say you can be put through mechanics and engineering school on their dime and never actually have to pay them back in any way such as serving in the very thing you enlisted in.

                  Oh, by the way, I'm being sarcastic. He's right. If you join the military- it doesn't matter what a recruiter promises, or whatever- you will almost certainly be deployed. That's why they send them through schools- so they can use them. Its not a free-ride like the recruiters promise.

                  I have absolutely no comment on the actual questions posed in this thread with regards to you trying to be a "weapons designer" because that's pretty much all I was able to gather from your incomprehensible posts. Speaking of that, perhaps you could develop a new cipher! Just retype messages for others so they become uninterpretable! the enemy will have one heck of a time!

                  I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

                    You'll have to change your major if you want to design weapons/firearms. You better do it soon though so no more time/money is used on a degree you no longer want.

                      Wow... this is a good one (conversation, I mean).

                      You weren't very specific when you referred to designing weapons, so everyone (including me, initially) assumed you were talking about firearms and such. However, you are a computer engineering student, correct? In India. I don't know much about the Indian military system but am intimately familiar with the American one (having been a member and then civilian employee since 1997). In the States, if you join the military to pay for school, you really have to be a soldier first and then worry about being a student after you're done. I deployed four times, and am currently 10,500 km from home on another overseas tour... there isn't the kind of stability that one really needs to have to buckle down on an engineering degree.

                      All of that being said... is it advanced weapons systems that you're referring to? If so, continue your studies in computer engineering and find a mentor who knows what's going on (this is where the Army officers come in, perhaps) so that they can direct you.

                        A lot of the high-tech weapons electronic systems are going to be supplied by private defense industry contractors. You might meet some at a career fair, or find some in the phone book, or visit the career counselling center at your local university.
