We frown upon users purposely creating incomplete pages, especially pages for games. Since you obviously already own the game and have played it, then it only makes sense for you to complete the page rather than forcing someone else to purchase it. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 17:20, 22 July 2013 (EDT)


== M27 IAR ==
I don't mind as saying that it is a GAU-5A/A with an imaginary flat top, but the thing I would object to is actually titling the section "GAU-5A/A" rather than "Commando". When a section is titled after a real gun that is us saying that the gun in question '''is''' that gun. That is not the case here, as the Commando is essentially a fictional gun that may (or in fact may not) be based on a GAU-5A/A. In these cases it is our convention to title the section whatever the gun is called in game with quoatation marks, so in this case "Commando". Also, on the topic of this edit what specifically made you say that the AK is an AK-74 prototype? To me, one of the things that we can tell for sure is that it is definitely not that, as it has the hardware for a folding stock on the receiver (button at the back, catch at the front to hold the folded stock) so it is either based on an AKS-74, AK-74M, or a 100 series AK. The problem is that all of those have 90 degree gas blocks whilst this gun has a 45 degree one, and all of those guns have AK-74 front sights and muzzle brakes and this gun doesn't (I can't tell what front sight it has, in the 3rd person image it looks like a wide AK-47 type one but i think this is just weird scaling and it is actually a narrow AKM type one). When you add on to this the fact that it has smooth wood handguard without a palm swell, a type 2 AK fixed stock, and a type 3 AK receiver mounted rear sling loop, I think it is pretty fair to call this thing a composite.  --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 07:44, 28 March 2018 (EDT)
:The main obvious difference between an AKM and AK-74 FSB is that the latter has a bayonet lug, but it isn't just stuck on there, it is on an extension coming out the back of it. There are other differences like how the cleaning rod is retained, but the most obvious is the bayonet lug. [http://cdn3.volusion.com/vawhb.dxcnr/v/vspfiles/photos/Sight-block-AKM-2.jpg Here is an AKM one], and [http://www.dinzagarms.com/saiga_762x39/large/74-fsb.jpg here is an AK-74 one] for comparison. In these image you can also see that there is a big difference with how the muzzle threads are, as on the AKM the barrel is threaded but with the 74 the front sight block holds the threading which is larger diameter. There is another front sight block which is the Romanian one which looks a bit more like an AKM one with just the bayonet lug stuck underneath ([http://oi62.tinypic.com/o6mqo5.jpg here]) which doesn't have the lug coming off of the back due top how the Romanian brake is narrow so is slightly longer. I'll have a go at fixing the entries in the page later when I'm home from work to try and clear things up a bit. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 13:49, 28 March 2018 (EDT)


While it's fielded in the SAW role, it's mechanically just an assault rifle, so it's really best off there. As for your other question; the problem with trying to have a chambered round in a bolt-action clip-fed rifle is that you chamber a round by the action of pushing the bolt forward. Obviously, you can't load the rifle if the bolt is closed, and opening it would eject any chambered round. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 08:32, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
== Categorization ==
:Just to add, a lot of the early bolt action service rifles (including the Springfield 1906 you asked about along with the Lebel Model 1886, Krag-Jørgensen, and early Lee Enfields) were fitted with something called a magazine cut off. This interrupted feeding from the magazine so that you could close the bolt without picking up a round from the mag. The purpose of these was to have a full magazine loaded and activate the cut off, and use the rifle as a single shot saving the rounds in the magazine for an emergency. Theoretically though you could load a magazine, activate the cut off, manually insert a round into the chamber, close the bolt and then deactivate the cut off, which would result in you having the full magazine plus one in the chamber. I doubt this was rarely, if ever, actually done though and experience in actual wars led to the magazine cut off being dropped as an unnecessary complication on most service rifles. The idea of a magazine cut off has survived in shotguns though, where it is useful when loading a round of a different ammunition as opposed to whatever is currently in the magazine, or if you want to make the gun safe. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 12:51, 31 August 2013 (EDT)


== Half-Life 2 Alyx Gun ==
So, if you're wondering why I moved the [[M2 Carbine]] and [[Thompson]] Carbine back into the Assault Rifles category, here's my reasoning: .30 Carbine is an intermediate rifle cartridge. You yourself acknowledged that by placing the Hyde Carbine images under the "Rifle-Caliber" section of Category:Carbine. Therefore, the M2 and the Thompson are both select-fire rifles firing intermediate cartridges from detachable magazines, which is (according to the introduction of the Category:Assault Rifle page) the very definition of an assault rifle. As for separating out the Rifles, Carbines & Battle Rifles section, I don't think that that would be a good idea. Splitting off the carbines would lead to all sorts of debates as to what is and isn't a carbine (e.g. whether or not the [[Mosin Nagant|M38 Mosin]] should be there, whether or not the [[Winchester Model 1873]] should be there, or if only the carbine-length version and not the rifle-length version should, etc.), and splitting out battle rifles could cause similar problems (e.g. does the [[SKS]] qualify, and if it does, then why doesn't, say, the [[ACR]] qualify). So, for simplicity's sake, I say we just leave it as-is for now. Oh, and by the way, thank you for creating the [[H3VR]] redirect. I'd been meaning to do that for a while now, but I'd never gotten around to it, in large part because I didn't have the damnedest clue ''how''. Cheers, [[User:Pyr0m4n14c|Pyr0m4n14c]] ([[User talk:Pyr0m4n14c|talk]]) 10:41, 24 July 2018 (EDT) P.S.: Do you know how to link to a category page? I would've linked the ones mentioned here, but any attempts to do so resulted in the site instead classifying your talk page as an assault rifle.
:Fair enough, I can see why, and although I would question why the 300-meter effective range requirement is considered part of the definition (especially considering how it's essentially meant to exclude this one exact case, effective range isn't a consideration in any other category, and there are some things put there that don't have that long of a range - the [[APS Underwater Assault Rifle]], [[SR-3M Vikhr]], and [[KAC PDW]] I know for sure, and I seriously doubt that something like the [[AAC Honey Badger]] or [[CSA SA vz. 58 Compact]] can manage 300 meters either), that's not something to bring up with you in this discussion.

== Brackets ==
Well, you maybe are right about not creating guns pages before correct ID, but I am almost sure that the gun in WW3 is a PM-06. The rails aren't included in civilian models, (something that is also seen in PR-15 Ragun civilian version, so maybe is a FB thing) but I thing I seen the flashlight/grip combination peculiar of the PM-06.

I used to do exactly what you do and I just figured I'd point it out so you can watch yourself for it; when you put something in brackets, make sure it's an aside connected to the previous thought, not a completely different thought.

== RE: Battle Rifle Category ==


== re: Hey ==
Ah, okay, thanks for the clarification. I was a bit unsure as to whether or not guns were allowed to "double-dip", so to speak. Actually, this does raise another question: Should the [[M1918A2 BAR]] stay? I mean, it was meant as an LMG, but in practical application, it was commonly used more like a heavy battle rifle. Thoughts? [[User:Pyr0m4n14c|Pyr0m4n14c]] ([[User talk:Pyr0m4n14c|talk]]) 09:48, 7 October 2018 (EDT) P.S.: Also, would you have any objection to me changing "Semi-Auto/Full-Auto" to "Select-Fire" and pulling in the [[Breda PG]] (and possibly the M1918A2 as well - it ''is'' selective fire, it's just full-auto or faster full-auto)? Having 2 separate categories with 3 guns between them right at the end just looks wrong, IMO.


With fully automatic open bolt weapons it is the case that you do not need to cock the bolt if you are changing a half empty magazine. It would also be true for an empty magazine, but only if you happened to let your finger off of the trigger after the bolt had started moving forward on the last shot, but before the bolt cycled back again which would be difficult to do, particularly on weapons with a high rate of fire. The AA-12 and Thompson feed from drum magazine which do not operate any differently to box magazines (as far as the gun is concerned) meaning that if you swap one out with the bolt in the rear position, you will not need to cock it again.
== Re:Grenade ID ==


For belt fed machine guns I am not 100% sure, but I believe that if the bolt was to the rear you would simply need to open the feed tray, swap out the existing belt and close the tray again. However this is not the case with all machine guns. For example, on the PKM due to the fact that it fires a rimmed case the operation is more complicated, whereby as the bolt moves backwards it strips a round from the belt, and then chambers/fires it when the bolt goes forward. This means that the bolt needs to be cycled when a new belt is inserted even if the bolt is already to the rear, as the first new round needs to be stripped off of the belt and put into the feedway. This is how a lot of earlier machine guns opperated (including the M2HB for example) as is called "two stage", whereas more modern machine gun ten to use single stage "push through" mechanism. I think it might be the case that if you were to reload a two stage machine gun when there was still a round in the feedway you would not need to cock it again, but am not sure about that and would also depend on the gun probably.
Hi! I tend to think that isn't not a genuine RGD-5 as its body have two belts while original RGD-5s (all versions, live and dummy) have a single belt. Cyrillic letters "ИН" (IN) on the body may stand for "Inertnaya" (dummy) but such marking is placed below the belt on the body. I think that it's a mockup, possibly made of parts of genuine grenade. [[User:Greg-Z|Greg-Z]] ([[User talk:Greg-Z|talk]]) 09:19, 13 October 2018 (EDT)


As for the rocket thing, yes, most modern shoulder launched rockets and missiles will have a minimum arming distance which is normally determined by an amount of revolutions after it is fired. However this is not necessarily always the case, as for example there are currently some companies that manufacture RPG-7 round which omit this feature. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 18:23, 11 January 2014 (EST)

The reason doesn't fit in the edit box. Moving the information on marksman rifles to a section after them makes no sense, the shotgun reload can be started for any number of rounds and therefore could be interrupted normally if they'd wanted it to, you shouldn't re-pipe the link to the VSSK to a title we don't use for it. The rest of the edits are just fiddling that's the same either way around and isn't necessary. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 17:44, 12 January 2014 (EST)
== ID'ing some AK variants in Hitman  ==


== UBGLs ==
Hi Ultimate94ninja, I'm looking to identify the AK variants in both Hitman 2016 and the upcoming sequel, wondering if you could help.


Are there pieces of media that you have in mind that feature the Milkor Mk-4 or VHS-BG UBGL? If not, we do not allow users to make pages for or add images of weapons (or specific variants) which have appeared in no documented media, hence they will be deleted.  --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 18:35, 27 September 2014 (EDT)

If you want change captions, you can write new ones, but placing "Ditto" is not acceptable.  Unfortunately, when a "rollback" is made, all edits that were made are automatically reverted. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 19:56, 27 September 2014 (EDT)
While Hitman 2 has this model, but I'm certain it's not a direct AK-47 copy.


When a change has to be made, admins don't want to have to go into every single entry and have to make single changes. So users have to be careful because sometimes this can happen. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 20:16, 27 September 2014 (EDT)

== Couple of things on your wiki ==

XMG can equip Extended Mags and Laser Sight in Exo Survival (I made the mistake of picking the one that was utterly useless in my caps), not sure if you can put anything on the NA-45 because a two-shot rifle didn't strike me as a decent upgrade over an ACOG-equipped Lynx (if not, it's worth noting that the menu screen for Exo Survival shows a Specialist with an ACOG scope on an NA-45). As I put on our page, all pistols start Exo Survival with extended mags and if you actually buy extended mags for one it doesn't do anything. Also the weapon in the image for the Gung-Ho perk is actually an Atlas 45 with no magazine well, I guess it originally wasn't going to be a space C96 with no barrel. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 14:30, 14 November 2014 (EST)
:Thanks for providing details, it's much appreciated. Certainly seems they had a customisation system in mind for 2016 like [https://www.artstation.com/artwork/om05J this], especially with the number of (especially, fictional) firearms with modular components compared to past instalments. Ok if I use your comments as the basis of content for the Hitman page?
:No, that's what I mean, the attachment ''is'' still selectable and you're still charged for buying it, but it doesn't actually do anything if you do, you just burn the upgrade points for nothing. I know this because I was hoping I'd get 33 or so rounds for the PDW and was denied. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 06:50, 15 November 2014 (EST)


::Just went in and checked: if you ''buy'' a pistol it doesn't get extended mags. The downed Atlas 45 does get it automatically, as do all three class' starting pistols. It either changed or I didn't remember it right: what currently happens is it says "equipped" but if you click on the word it charges you two upgrade points, makes you draw your weapon again, and does absolutely nothing. It let me buy it twice in a row, maybe it just doesn't disable the ability to buy attachments you already have. Which is dumb.

Thanks for help! I think that you are right, and the screen gun is really this airsoft AK-105. Many modern Russian movies use airsoft guns with CGI muzzle flashes.

*GPMG: Can be used in either role, usually functionally a lightweight MMG.


I can kind of see what Modern Firearms is getting at with the M60E3 since it was notorious for its problems with overheating and breakages and wouldn't be much use for sustained fire, and I think it was generally ''issued'' in the light machine gun role even though it was technically a GPMG. There's a difference between what the weapon functionally ''is'' and what it's ''issued as'' that makes this confusing, but since a military could issue a semi-automatic pistol in the light machine gun role if it wanted to, it's not really a good idea to use "issued as" to define what the weapon is. But yes, all the weapons you've listed are functionally GPMGs since there's no functional reason they couldn't be used in the medium machine gun role. This also applies to some weapons which are ''officially'' classified as light machine guns, like the PKP Pecheneg.

Hello Ultimate94ninja, just wanted to ask: the photo of the AK-200 I uploaded to the AK-12 main article, is it not an AK-200? I took it from Maxim Popenker's Modern Firearms website (I included the source link, it says the photo is from the Kalashnikov Group). I included it for comparison, since there is a photo of the AK-200 prototype in that article. A photo of the AK-203 soon to be used by India is also included in [https://www.armyrecognition.com/february_2020_global_defense_security_army_news_industry/ak-203_to_become_organic_assault_rifle_of_indian_armed_forces.html this article]. So it is the AK-200 series, according to these sources, I don't know why you say it's a different model. Also, I don't know if this should go in the AK-12 article, but maybe it'd be better to create a separate article for the AK-200 series? Thanks.
:Thanks. OK, let it be in current state, it's not a problem. Concerning ''Nothing to Declare'': I think that you are right, and the revolvers are MR-73s, including Ducatel's revolver. [[User:Greg-Z|Greg-Z]] ([[User talk:Greg-Z|talk]]) 05:09, 2 December 2017 (EST)

== "World Model" ==
== AK-200 ==


Just FYI, it is not true to say that the term "world model" only "denotes the isolated model of the weapon i.e. in game files". The term "world model" just refers to the model of the object that is used when it is seen in 3rd person view, held by someone else, or laying on the ground. The reason for this terminology is that for 1st person games generally the model of the gun that you see as the player when using the gun in 1st person is a different one to what you see in 3rd person or otherwise. The name of the model used in first person is generally called the "view model". For example, in the M1 Carbine section on the COD WW2 page it would be correct so say that the first 4 images are of the "view model" and the last image is of the "world model". The reason that there are two different models used is that you want a highly detailed model for the gun that is in the players hands, but you can get away with a simpler one causing less graphics strain for when it is being held by others. In some games this terminology and differentiation can be important, as occasionally there are omissions of parts or changes to the world model that can actually make them be ID'd as a slightly different gun. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 13:47, 18 December 2017 (EST)

Though, other details are puzzling me right now. Here we refer to the full-fence version as the "late model" while the guy refers to it as "pattern A" and the non-full-fence one as "pattern B", maybe he has it wrong? Also according to him the presence of a bayonet lug is a characteristic of the late/pattern A but I think that could be wrong as there is no point to issue the weapon with a bayonet lug considering that the bayonet cannot attach to this particular muzzle.

Much as it's a really stupid bullet, .50 Beowulf is 12.7x42mm, which means the case is actually shorter than a 5.56 (see [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.50_Beowulf#/media/File:Beowulf_Cartridges.JPG here]).

I don't mind as saying that it is a GAU-5A/A with an imaginary flat top, but the thing I would object to is actually titling the section "GAU-5A/A" rather than "Commando". When a section is titled after a real gun that is us saying that the gun in question is that gun. That is not the case here, as the Commando is essentially a fictional gun that may (or in fact may not) be based on a GAU-5A/A. In these cases it is our convention to title the section whatever the gun is called in game with quoatation marks, so in this case "Commando". Also, on the topic of this edit what specifically made you say that the AK is an AK-74 prototype? To me, one of the things that we can tell for sure is that it is definitely not that, as it has the hardware for a folding stock on the receiver (button at the back, catch at the front to hold the folded stock) so it is either based on an AKS-74, AK-74M, or a 100 series AK. The problem is that all of those have 90 degree gas blocks whilst this gun has a 45 degree one, and all of those guns have AK-74 front sights and muzzle brakes and this gun doesn't (I can't tell what front sight it has, in the 3rd person image it looks like a wide AK-47 type one but i think this is just weird scaling and it is actually a narrow AKM type one). When you add on to this the fact that it has smooth wood handguard without a palm swell, a type 2 AK fixed stock, and a type 3 AK receiver mounted rear sling loop, I think it is pretty fair to call this thing a composite. --commando552 (talk) 07:44, 28 March 2018 (EDT)

The main obvious difference between an AKM and AK-74 FSB is that the latter has a bayonet lug, but it isn't just stuck on there, it is on an extension coming out the back of it. There are other differences like how the cleaning rod is retained, but the most obvious is the bayonet lug. Here is an AKM one, and here is an AK-74 one for comparison. In these image you can also see that there is a big difference with how the muzzle threads are, as on the AKM the barrel is threaded but with the 74 the front sight block holds the threading which is larger diameter. There is another front sight block which is the Romanian one which looks a bit more like an AKM one with just the bayonet lug stuck underneath (here) which doesn't have the lug coming off of the back due top how the Romanian brake is narrow so is slightly longer. I'll have a go at fixing the entries in the page later when I'm home from work to try and clear things up a bit. --commando552 (talk) 13:49, 28 March 2018 (EDT)

Categorization

So, if you're wondering why I moved the M2 Carbine and Thompson Carbine back into the Assault Rifles category, here's my reasoning: .30 Carbine is an intermediate rifle cartridge. You yourself acknowledged that by placing the Hyde Carbine images under the "Rifle-Caliber" section of Category:Carbine. Therefore, the M2 and the Thompson are both select-fire rifles firing intermediate cartridges from detachable magazines, which is (according to the introduction of the Category:Assault Rifle page) the very definition of an assault rifle. As for separating out the Rifles, Carbines & Battle Rifles section, I don't think that that would be a good idea. Splitting off the carbines would lead to all sorts of debates as to what is and isn't a carbine (e.g. whether or not the M38 Mosin should be there, whether or not the Winchester Model 1873 should be there, or if only the carbine-length version and not the rifle-length version should, etc.), and splitting out battle rifles could cause similar problems (e.g. does the SKS qualify, and if it does, then why doesn't, say, the ACR qualify). So, for simplicity's sake, I say we just leave it as-is for now. Oh, and by the way, thank you for creating the H3VR redirect. I'd been meaning to do that for a while now, but I'd never gotten around to it, in large part because I didn't have the damnedest clue how. Cheers, Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 10:41, 24 July 2018 (EDT) P.S.: Do you know how to link to a category page? I would've linked the ones mentioned here, but any attempts to do so resulted in the site instead classifying your talk page as an assault rifle.

Fair enough, I can see why, and although I would question why the 300-meter effective range requirement is considered part of the definition (especially considering how it's essentially meant to exclude this one exact case, effective range isn't a consideration in any other category, and there are some things put there that don't have that long of a range - the APS Underwater Assault Rifle, SR-3M Vikhr, and KAC PDW I know for sure, and I seriously doubt that something like the AAC Honey Badger or CSA SA vz. 58 Compact can manage 300 meters either), that's not something to bring up with you in this discussion. And thanks a ton for the formatting/wikitext help. See ya, Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 13:51, 26 July 2018 (EDT)

PM-06 Identification

Well, you maybe are right about not creating guns pages before correct ID, but I am almost sure that the gun in WW3 is a PM-06. The rails aren't included in civilian models, (something that is also seen in PR-15 Ragun civilian version, so maybe is a FB thing) but I thing I seen the flashlight/grip combination peculiar of the PM-06. So if you don't see it, you are right.--Dannyguns (talk) 08:54, 5 September 2018 (EDT)

RE: Battle Rifle Category

Ah, okay, thanks for the clarification. I was a bit unsure as to whether or not guns were allowed to "double-dip", so to speak. Actually, this does raise another question: Should the M1918A2 BAR stay? I mean, it was meant as an LMG, but in practical application, it was commonly used more like a heavy battle rifle. Thoughts? Pyr0m4n14c (talk) 09:48, 7 October 2018 (EDT) P.S.: Also, would you have any objection to me changing "Semi-Auto/Full-Auto" to "Select-Fire" and pulling in the Breda PG (and possibly the M1918A2 as well - it is selective fire, it's just full-auto or faster full-auto)? Having 2 separate categories with 3 guns between them right at the end just looks wrong, IMO.

Re:Grenade ID

Hi! I tend to think that isn't not a genuine RGD-5 as its body have two belts while original RGD-5s (all versions, live and dummy) have a single belt. Cyrillic letters "ИН" (IN) on the body may stand for "Inertnaya" (dummy) but such marking is placed below the belt on the body. I think that it's a mockup, possibly made of parts of genuine grenade.

Blops4

Hey, just wondering if you need some screenshots of the weapons head over to https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/dotesports.com/call-of-duty/news/call-of-duty-black-ops-4-weapons-list/amp. The screencaps are directly from Activision themselves so its not stealing from Dote Sports so to speak. Might help until more screencaps are available. --Forrest1985 (talk) 03:17, 14 October 2018 (EDT)

ID'ing some AK variants in Hitman

Hi Ultimate94ninja, I'm looking to identify the AK variants in both Hitman 2016 and the upcoming sequel, wondering if you could help.

In the 2016 game, there's the RS-15:

While Hitman 2 has this model, but I'm certain it's not a direct AK-47 copy.

Regards, SectionMateba (talk) 02:53, 23 October 2018 (EDT)

Thanks for providing details, it's much appreciated. Certainly seems they had a customisation system in mind for 2016 like this, especially with the number of (especially, fictional) firearms with modular components compared to past instalments. Ok if I use your comments as the basis of content for the Hitman page?

That shouldn't be happening - what setup do you have that it always occurs on Recent Changes? If you give me the OS version of your Android and browser/browser version I can try and recreate it consistently to track it down. --bunni (talk) 14:34, 26 February 2019 (EST)

Re:AK in Republic Z

Thanks for help! I think that you are right, and the screen gun is really this airsoft AK-105. Many modern Russian movies use airsoft guns with CGI muzzle flashes. Speaking on MK-107, if this gun would really appear on screen, we may even make a special page under its final name, Kalashnikov SR1. For now, I agree, the best place for gun image would be on AK discussion page. Greg-Z (talk) 12:08, 10 March 2019 (EDT)

Yup! Had to clone a couple servers but we narrowed down the source and I can push a fix on the 8th of next month when we upgrade the servers. I'll have to freeze edits to the wiki and there will likely be several hours of downtime (up to 12). --bunni (talk) 12:33, 30 March 2019 (EDT)

IMFDB Bug reply

Thank you for listening, now IMFDB seems to work properly. Dannyguns

Yeah is a big bug as the hours of the "Hours Bug" are the daytime hours, here in Europe.

I wanted to use the image with the tan furniture since it more closely matches what is seen in The Division games, while the image you uploaded seems to be a post-Danish contract model with a new handguard design.--AgentGumby (talk) 14:32, 17 May 2019 (EDT)

In this case, the profanity is quite prominent in the screenshot, so the cropping is done for that purpose. Either that, or you could blur the offensive out. --Ben41 (talk) 21:08, 7 July 2019 (EDT)

I am still somewhat confused about all the MPX variants, and apparently every single game has a hybrid MPX.

More information regarding this weapon. It re-uses release M4A1's receiver model and shares it with the "M16 SPR". No idea how it'll help. Lunar Watcher (talk) 04:03, 20 October 2019 (EDT)

Boxes

IZh-80 and MP-131K also feeded from boxes. --Slon95 (talk) 10:31, 1 February 2020 (EST)

Not so much, actually: [3]. People from IZhMekh said that it was outwardly identical to IZh-81K, with the only difference being that it had a actually underbarrel magazine. There was still some information, I will try to find. Unfortunately, it's extremely difficult to find a photos of any Russian weapons that weren't produced in tons. --Slon95 (talk) 20:33, 2 February 2020 (EST)
"There was an earlier thing called IZh-80. There is don't has magazines' switch, but it is possible to insert a box magazine, for this the receiver's tray leans down. It even was adopted for service, but produced is very limited. With the switch was IZh82, also known as MP131K." "Then there was IZh-80, GRAU even took its into service, then a lot of things were accepted. But they didn't mass-produce it. ... IZh-80 and IZh-82/MP-131K are completely different systems." That's probably all. --Slon95 (talk) 09:05, 3 February 2020 (EST)

There are also a couple of interesting things, also with box feeding, which I completely forgot about: [4]. --Slon95 (talk) 18:37, 4 February 2020 (EST)

AK-12/AK-200

Hello Ultimate94ninja, just wanted to ask: the photo of the AK-200 I uploaded to the AK-12 main article, is it not an AK-200? I took it from Maxim Popenker's Modern Firearms website (I included the source link, it says the photo is from the Kalashnikov Group). I included it for comparison, since there is a photo of the AK-200 prototype in that article. A photo of the AK-203 soon to be used by India is also included in this article. So it is the AK-200 series, according to these sources, I don't know why you say it's a different model. Also, I don't know if this should go in the AK-12 article, but maybe it'd be better to create a separate article for the AK-200 series? Thanks. --Ssantusky (talk) 22:37, 6 June 2020 (EDT)

Uncharted 4: A Thief's End

But can it fire in full auto in-game or is it semi-auto only? I wouldn't know, I have never played the game. I know that the M21/M25 locks the selector in semi only, I just assumed from the pictures that the selector was locked in semi like an actual M21/M25 SWS. I guess I should have mentioned that in the summary of my edit. --TheFlyingDutchman (talk) 17:18, 14 June 2020 (EDT)

I apologize. I was unaware of this button before. I thought that the selector on the M21/M25 SWS looked exactly the same as the M14, except on the M21/M25 SWS it was locked in semi-auto. Looks like I have some pages to fix. --TheFlyingDutchman (talk) 21:41, 14 June 2020 (EDT)

AK-200

Thank you for clearing that up regarding the AK-200 development history, I wasn't aware of it. I thought that the current AK-200 was the result of continuing development on that same prototype you mentioned after finishing the final production AK-12. My bad. I'll be on the lookout for possible AK-200 appearances in the media. --Ssantusky (talk) 21:53, 14 June 2020 (EDT)

XM1771E1 Late photo?

Hey, wanted to ask, where did you find the larger version of Colt 609-XM1771E1 Late.jpg? Or you upscaled it somehow? --Nanomat (talk) 10:49, 26 February 2021 (EST)

RE: Oh yeah, the url tricks... I was too existed that I found an exact in game like XM1771E1 photo that forgot about checking the url. As for the image itself, I think it is genuine gun. The guy states: "Looking at the actual gun photos of Mod.609" this in addition to the gritty and worn out appearance of the gun makes me think it is genuine. Though, other details are puzzling me right now. Here we refer to the full-fence version as the "late model" while the guy refers to it as "pattern A" and the non-full-fence one as "pattern B", maybe he has it wrong? Also according to him the presence of a bayonet lug is a characteristic of the late/pattern A but I think that could be wrong as there is no point to issue the weapon with a bayonet lug considering that the bayonet cannot attach to this particular muzzle. Maybe someone just swapped the default bayonet lugless sight with an M16 one? --Nanomat (talk) 13:34, 26 February 2021 (EST)

re:anaconda

hey, thanks! I'd been meaning to get an image of the Anaconda with its ammo box beside it but I couldn't get the lighting on the revolver to show the markings well, so I might replace it when I get a good pic. TheExplodingBarrel (talk) 16:55, 30 March 2021 (EDT)

SUR300 upper

I think it's a SUR300 just with a longer replacement handguard. It's supposed to be pretty modular anyway. I've found at least two different lengths on Google, though not as long as what's seen in the mod but even then its obviously patterned after the SUR300 handguard and it doesn't look like an earlier VIRTUS integral suppressor variant. --AgentGumby (talk) 20:29, 27 June 2021 (EDT)

Hey, wanna ask how to make a sandbox page to store my article projects because they clutter my user page?

"Credit/courtesy to Xtreme Props for the image shown."

A lot of our gun images that come from Xtreme Props have the phrase "Credit/courtesy to Xtreme Props for the image shown." on all of their image captions. Is there a rule or a deal that we made with Xtreme Props that required us to do that, or is it just a weird convention that we've inexplicably picked up? Wouldn't it be cleaner to leave the attributions on the file page, like what we do on most other gun images? --Wuzh (talk) 13:27, 23 January 2022 (EST)

MWII M4 Edit RE:

The Geissele handguard seems to have 6 slots though so I think it's the 13.5" model so the barrel is around 13.7" right? But gameplay wise the 14" barrel attachment has no range effect on it so it must just be placebo on my brain.
