You say you wouldn't want to mount the scope in the spot it's mounted on Megatron, so my questions are: Why wouldn't you want to mount it there? Where should you mount it instead? Is it common for people to mount a scope on this gun in real life?

Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

Thanks, it's Phil Ken Sebben from Harvey Birdman Attorney at law, and yes DBZA used the soundclip from that scene
Check out the show, it's awesome.
And man, these new pics are really cool.

The spot it's mounted on on Megatron is right at the back of the slide, which is the part that moves when you shoot it. This presents a plethora of problems. There is the obvious (it'd hit you in the face) and the not so obvious (if the scope isn't built well enough the blowback could make it fall apart).
There is no spot to mount a scope on the P38 because of how small the slide is. As far as I know it's impossible but I could be wrong.
There is absolutely no point in putting a scope on a pistol unless for some reason you decide to start sniping deer with it. Scopes are intended for bolt action rifles since their recoil won't interrupt the viewing of the target because of how little there is.

Very interesting! Thanks for the explanation! I don't know much about guns, although I've fired a few, but I always thought it was strange when, in a FPS video game, I would get a pistol with a scope.
Besides the reasons you mentioned above, aren't pistols used for close-range combat, where a scope would be useless anyway? In other words, if your target is so far away you need a scope, is a pistol going to have enough range?
