I'm just a simple man trying to make his way in the universe.


'''Name:''' Josh
== Favorite Firearms ==
===Pistols===
[[Image:COLTM1911 1913.jpg|400px|thumb|none|Colt [[M1911]] - Best handgun ever made, PERIOD. Give me this weapon over any other handgun for personal defense or a combat situation. the M1911 is the PURE epitimy of sexiness in a handgun. It's like if a really hot woman were turned into a gun, then we would get the M1911... Maybe Jesus was reincarnated in John Browning...]]


'''Age:''' 22
[[Image:HiPowerMk3.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Browning Hi-Power]] - Another favorite of mine from the imaginative mind of John Browning. Great design, great looks, a good, sturdy feel, and another cinema classic.]]


'''State:''' California
[[Image:FN-FiveSeven USG.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[FN Five-seveN]] - Another great firearm that is manufactured by FN. As Justin Hammer says in Iron Man 2, the Belgians definitely make something better than waffles! And I would say the same thing for this gun as I stated for the M1911; It's as if someone took a really hot woman, turned it into a gun, and we got the FN Five-seveN!]]


'''Country:''' United States of America
[[Image:Claridge HiTech S9.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Claridge Hi-Tec/Goncz GA]] - I like this pistol on the fact that despite the company differences between the original makers and the current makers of this pistol, it nails down that "space age" look that the overpriced and unwieldy Desert Eagle just doesn't cut out to be anymore, and both versions are finely finished and sturdy. Now it probably won't be long before Mr. Goncz sends me a threatening email asking me to remove this weapon from my user page, just like he has threatened this site before with legal action.]]


[[Image:Colt Model 1903.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Colt Model 1903]] - I absolutely love the look of this early Colt. And to think that it's overall look would be the look that the Colt M1911 would have later on! I love this firearm.]]


== Who am I? ==
[[Image:SiGP220RNewModel.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[SIG-Sauer P220R]] - Perhaps the only other .45 handgun that I can honestly say, I enjoy the look and feel of. If I did not have an M1911 in a combat scenario where I need some serious knockdown power, then I would reach for the SIG P220R.]]
I guess to start this off, my name is Josh, and I hail from the hot and sunny state of California. Yeah, yeah, I know... ''One'' of the most pro-liberal states in the union with crazy wildfires, shit weather, restrictive gun laws, and will supposedly fall into the ocean and join Hawaii in 2012...


Ok, ok, now that I got those god-awful jokes out of my system, I guess I will tell you more about myself...
[[Image:P229s.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[SIG-Sauer P229]] - This is perhaps the ONLY 9mm handgun I would ever use. Why? One, because it is sexier than the Beretta 92, two, it is NOT an overrated weapon like the Glock pistols are, and three, the stainless look of the Sport model looks awesome!]]


I am your average-joe Southern California resident who happens to be a gun-lover. I first discovered this site in the winter of 2009 when I was searching for what kind of handgun the Joker used in the film [[The Dark Knight]], and after a time of some anonymous editing of a few pages and picture captions, I decided to create an account here on IMFDB for the hell of it. I enjoy this site and I think it has one of the best insights as to what kinds of firearms were used in movies.
[[Image:Glock21.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Glock 21]] - Ok, ok, I will admit that out of all the Glock pistols that have been manufactured, the Glock 21FS is pretty much the only Glock pistol that I can honestly say, I like the feel and the look that the pistol has. This would probably be my first choice in buying a pistol.]]


I currently do not own any firearms, but I have handled and fired several different firearms throughout most of my life (from simple hunting rifles to modern handguns). I am also an airsofter and I currently own 6 airsoft firearms; a shotgun and 5 pistols.
[[Image:C96Pistol.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Mauser C96]] - Elegant design if somewhat pricey. But if a gun was made to look good in film, the C96 is that gun (aside from the M1911)]]


I guess the only things left for me to say is that most of the time, I am a fun-loving guy and I don't mind making new friends or having friendly discussions or debates about guns or movies. I will stick around this site for a bit and help out on the articles that need work where it is needed. Other than that, feel free to hit me up on any questions or discussions that you guys want to have with me.
[[Image:TT-33.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Tokarev TT-33]] - A nice design and overall look to it. The look and feel is very reminiscent of an M1911/Colt Hammerless hybrid. If I was ever dual-wielding handguns (a strongly discouraged tactic, but what the hell, it still looks pretty cool), then my choices would be this gun in my left hand, and an M1911 in my right hand.]]


[[Image:LugerP08Artillery.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Luger P08]] - Pretty awesome handgun. You gotta respect the Germans for their exquisite firearms manufacturing.]]


== Pages that I have worked on/edited ==
[[Image:WaltherP1.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Walther P38]] - Yet another finely manufactured pistol by the Germans!]]


[[Batman: Gotham Knight]] - The page looked very good, I commend whoever got the good screenshots from the film, the only thing it was lacking was some picture captions that were relevant to the film, so I took the liberty to add some back when I was an anonymous editor.
[[Image:Jericho941FullSize.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Jericho 941]] - Gotta respect Israel's fine weapons manufacturing! And besides, this is more better to have at your side than an overpriced, unwieldy, heavy Desert Eagle.]]


[[Image:Cz75.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[CZ-75]] - Another finely manufactured pistol!]]


== Pages that I would like to see/help build ==
[[Image:RugerMkIIIBlued.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Ruger Mk III]] - If I needed a naturally silenced, low caliber weapon that still packs a nasty punch when entering the brain of a zombie during an apocalypse of the Living Dead, then I would choose this weapon. I also like this pistol because it's look strongly resembles the German Luger P08, and that's cool.]]
[[Zombies of Mass Destruction]] - I would like to see this movie get it's own page here on IMFDB. I think it's a good zombie comedy flick, and sure it's nowhere near as good as the more popular zombie flicks out there, but it's still a damn good film.


[[Smith & Wesson M&P .40]] - Does this gun really exist?
===Revolvers===
[[Image:Webley.JPG|400px|thumb|none|[[Webly Mk VI]] - A great series of revolvers made by the British during both World Wars!]]


[[Image:ColtSAA475barrel.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Colt Single Action Army]] - This gun only deserves one phrase: "Be not afraid of any man no matter what his size; when danger threatens, call on me, and I will equalize."]]


== My airsoft guns ==
[[Image:S&WSchofieldright.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Smith & Wesson Schofield]] - This was another one of the greatest pistols in the West, too bad it was mostly overshadowed by Colt.]]
I will upload some pictures of them soon, but my airsoft guns are modeled after the following real-world firearms:


[[AMT Hardballer]] - And for some reason, this airsoft version has trademarks on the side that says it's a 9x19mm M1911... But real life AMT Hardballers aren't chambered in 9mm, are they?
[[Image:Smith&WessonModel29.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Smith & Wesson Model 29]] - "Do I feel lucky? Well do ya... Punk?"]]


[[Mossberg 500]] - More specifically, the Cruiser version with a pistol grip
[[Image:ColtModel1917.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[M1917 Revolver]] - Ah yes, another fine and exquisite piece of firearms manufacturing by Smith & Wesson... And perhaps the revolver competitor to the M1911 around the same time that both guns were manufactured.]]


[[Walther PPK]] - It's a really good airsoft pistol. A gas-operated weapon that has a good construction, but the metal parts can be damaged easily if you are not careful or if you misuse the weapon. But that's Umarex airsoft for you.
[[Image:ColtAnaconda.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Colt Anaconda]] - I just love the feel of this revolver. Plus, it's made by Colt, which is another reason why it's one of my personal favorites.]]


[[Smith & Wesson M&P .40]] - Even though this is a great airsoft handgun, does it really exist in real life? Because I don't see a page on here about it. Anyway, it's a gas-operated handgun that has a mixture of ABS plastic and metal construction, and it shoots pretty good
[[Image:Smith&Wesson500-4inch.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] - Yeah, yeah, I know, this gun is an overpowered beast. But when you are under attack from a savage wild animal when you are out hunting, wouldn't you reach for this revolver? Plus, if vampires or werewolves ever become a reality, then this gun would be the equivalent to Hellboy's Samaritan revolver! Along with the Desert Eagle!]]


[[Mauser C96]] - This one is made of high quality metal, and it shoots pretty hard. It's modeled after the CM712 select-fire version of the Mauser C96. It has a full metal construction and the grips are actual wood like the real version is. It is a soft-air version instead of the previous 2 being gas powered airsoft guns


[[M1911]] - Just got this one recently. It has an all-metal construction and it is a simple soft-air version, meaning that you have to manually pull the side back to chamber a new round. But it's still a good gun nevertheless, it gets it down to the tiniest details on the real life M1911's that were manufactured from 1911 to 1921(24?) before the introduction of the A1 model, such as the safety mechanism, slide lock, and the rear grip safety.
===Machine Pistols===
[[Image:AP9-Pistol.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Kimel AP-9]] - While some might argue that the plastic magazine and pistol grip frame is prone to breaking when the gun is fired, this gun actually nailed down what the TEC-9 failed in. And besides, it's better looking than the TEC-9, and it apparently has a finer finish and fit than the TEC-9. So that makes it pretty awesome.]]


[[Image:Uzi.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Uzi]] - Even though there are far more superior submachine guns that outclass the Uzi nowadays, you can never beat that eternal badass look that the Uzi has. Even though you might not take down your opponent with the 9mm, you will sure delay their advance when you lay down a crapton of cover-fire with this gun.]]


== Favorite Films ==
[[Image:SteyrTMP.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Steyr TMP]] - Another badass submachine gun that, just like the Uzi, has gathered an eternal badass look in cinema as being either the bad guy weapon, or the weapon of the good guys. Even though you might not be able to take out your opponents with the 9mm, you can still delay their advance with a barrage of cover-fire.]]
[[Independence Day]]


[[Saving Private Ryan]] - One of the best war films of all time
[[Image:BerettaAuto9.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Beretta 93R "Auto 9"]] - If there was one weapon from any movie that I would love to own, it would have to be the Auto 9. Even though I am not a fan of Beretta pistols in general, I gotta admit, if it wasn't for the Robocop movies, then this highly customized pistol would have faded into obscurity. This is truly a badass pistol.]]


[[Black Hawk Down]]


[[Cloverfield]] - If you are gonna watch this movie, watch it on a smaller screen, not a huge screen. Especially if you get dizzy from fast, first-person motion in a movie
===Rifles===
[[Image:Flintlockrifle2.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Kentucky Flintlock Rifle]] - Ok, ok, I can already hear you saying 'Josh! This rifle is SO outdated and no one uses it anymore!' Well guess what knuckleheads? If it wasn't for the Kentucky Flintlock then there would be no United States of America, now would there? That is why I love this rifle. She is a proud veteran of the American Revolution!]]


[[Batman Begins]]
[[Image:Yellowboy.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy"]] - Yep, I am a fan of this rifle, and the other updated variants of it that have been showcased throughout the raw years of the old West.]]


[[The Dark Knight]]
[[Image:Winchester1873.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Winchester Model 1873]] - Slightly better than the Model 1866, but still just as good.]]


[[The Punisher (2004)]] - Because both films actually nailed down what the Punisher is all about
[[Image:Centennial.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Winchester Model 1876]] - Perhaps one of the last greatest rifles in the production line of Winchester rifles.]]


[[Punisher: War Zone]] - Because both films actually nailed down what the Punisher is all about
[[Image:Ruger-Mini-14.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Ruger Mini-14]] - I just like the overall feel of this rifle.]]


[[Transformers]]
[[Image:M14Rifle.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[M14 Rifle]] - Wow... I just love this rifle. Give me this rifle, a crapton of ammunition, camouflage, rations, and put me in a wooded area where I can easily hide, and I would use this rifle to it's fullest extent!]]


[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen]]
[[Image:M1A1Carbine.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[M1A1 Carbine]] - The best friend of a paratrooper, and the best friend of a zombie killer (If you don't get the meaning behind this phrase, read ''The Zombie Survival Guide'' by Max Brooks and you will know what I am talking about)]]


[[G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra]]
[[Image:M1 Garand.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[M1 Garand]] - The best friend of an infantryman... PERIOD. You can drag this baby through the most roughest combat scenarios for a week without servicing it and it will still work for you!]]


[[Star Wars]]
[[Image:Rifle Springfield M1903A4 with M84 sight.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[M1903 Springfield]] - Hell yeah, I love the look of the Springfield rifles. Sure, the bolt action can be a little bit clumsy if you are fighting in trenches, but if you are fighting underneath sufficient cover, you can still squeeze off your 5 rounds and put them on the targets.]]


[[Night of the Living Dead (1968)]]
[[Image:MosinNagantM9130Sniper.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Mosin-Nagant M91/30]] - This is perhaps one of the best rifles that the former Soviet Union has ever manufactured. And I will admit this; whenever I'm playing a World War II-themed videogame and there's a Russian campaign, I usually pick this rifle for secondary use.]]


[[Dawn of the Dead (1978)]]
[[Image:Karabiner-98K.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Karabiner 98k]] - Ah yes, another finely manufactured rifle by the Germans! Too bad this rifle is becoming rarer and rarer nowadays... (Well, that's mainly due to the fact that Hitler and his Third Reich is no longer making these weapons!)]]


[[Dawn of the Dead (2004)]]
[[Image:SMLE.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[SMLE]] - Another great World War II rifle built by the British, and would see service even beyond the end of WWII! This is another rifle that I would LOVE to own.]]


[[Day of the Dead (1985)]]


[[Land of the Dead]]
===Assault Rifles===
[[Image:M16A4withANPEQ&ACOG.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[M16A4]] - Perhaps the best M16 rifle to come out of the family of those types of rifles. It has an overall nice look, and it feels great when handled. So yes, I will definitely reach for this rifle if I was charging out into battle and needed a good gun.]]


[[Diary of the Dead]]
[[Image:TypeIII AK47.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[AK-47]] - If you need a medium-range assault rifle that wont foul up easily in rough combat conditions, then this is the gun for you! But I will also bite and say this, because this gun fires a heavier cartridge, that doesn't necessarily make it the superior weapon. After all, your enemy will end up living through the gunshot wound to fight another day.]]


[[Survival of the Dead]]
[[Image:GalilAR.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Galil]] - If of course, you want an AK-based weapon that fires a round that will tear into your enemy and leave an ungodly, bloody mess, then the Galil is perhaps the better weapon for you. Besides, Israel makes some of the best weaponry in the world! So I suggest this weapon if you want a gun that looks alot like the AK, but fires a round that still packs a nasty punch.]]


[[Evil Dead]]
[[Image:FN SCAR-L (Standard).jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[FN SCAR]] - A pretty good rifle that will probably be seeing frontline service in the United States Army very soon.]]


[[Evil Dead II]]
[[Image:Magpul masada.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Magpul Masada]] - Damn! Another assault rifle that you can shoot when it is waterlogged?!]]


[[Army of Darkness]]
[[Image:FN F2000 tactical.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[FN F2000]] - I absolutely love this bullpup rifle out all the other ones that are my current favorites. I just like the overall look and feel of the F2000. Then again, Belgium is known for 4 favorite pastimes: Good waffles, good chocolate, great beer, and kick-ass firearms!]]


[[28 Days Later]]
[[Image:DSA-SA-58-OSW.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[FN FAL]] - Another finely manufactured weapon from the Belgians! Too bad there are WAY too many videogames out there that showcase these rifles firing in semi-auto only. Grrr!!! >:(]]


[[28 Weeks Later]]
[[Image:Steyr-AUG.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Steyr AUG]] - Why does this bullpup rifle get so much hate?]]


[[Zombies of Mass Destruction]]
[[Image:Famas.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[FAMAS]] - I like this rifle, it has such a good look to it and I also enjoy the feel and easy use of some bullpup rifles.]]


[[Doomsday]]
[[Image:Tavor-tar.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Tavor TAR-21]] - Another finely manufactured bullpup rifle, and made in Israel nonetheless.]]


[[Avatar]]


[[Tomb Raider]]
===Submachine Guns===
[[Image:M1921AC.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Thompson Submachine Gun]] - Perhaps the most famous American-made submachine gun that became famous in both real life as well as in the movies... the good old Thompson! Seriously, give me this gun over any other submachine gun any day of the week!]]


[[Goldeneye]]
[[Image:FNP90.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[FN P90]] - It may look like a toy, but this gun still packs a nasty punch when the going gets tough. There was a claim some time ago saying that the 5.7x28mm SS190 FN rounds could penetrate 40 layers of Kevlar from 200 yards away, but I don't know how much of that is true. But nevertheless, the FN P90 is being used by both SWAT and other law enforcement agencies in the United States. Along with the Navy SEALS and the U.S. Secret Service.]]


[[Die Another Day]]
[[Image:MP40.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[MP40]] - Another great firearm manufactured by the Germans during World War II. And if I had to take a guess, the MP40 could have very well been a predecessor to the modern-day MP5 series of submachine guns!]]


[[Casino Royale (2006)]]


[[Quantum of Solace]]
===Shotguns===
[[Image:50577.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Mossberg 500]] - A great shotgun for those who want to get into shooting, and are looking for a good shotgun. I personally prefer the extended magazine tube version since I like to pack more rounds.]]


[[Watchmen]]
[[Image:Mossberg 590 Special.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Mossberg 590]] - A good shotgun in the Model 500 series of the Mossberg shotguns.]]


[[The Matrix]]
[[Image:PaulNewmanShotgunActual.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Winchester Model 1887]] - I don't know why, but I like the look of a shotgun that has that old Western-style lever action mechanism that you would see in the rifles of that era. My reasons for liking this shotgun is because I saw it in action in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, and it is also a film used weapon that I would LOVE to own.]]


[[The Matrix Reloaded]]
[[Image:1897.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Winchester Model 1897]] - This is yet another one of my favorite shotguns in the Winchester family. I especially love the "trench gun" version of this shotgun.]]


[[The Matrix Revolutions]]
[[Image:WinchesterModel1300Defender.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Winchester Model 1300 Defender]] - I like the feel of this shotgun, especially the 'Defender' version with it's extended magazine tube... more rounds eh?]]


[[The Animatrix]]
[[Image:Remington870PoliceStd.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Remington 870]] - Nothing speaks "American made, American proud" better than this shotgun. (Aside from the M1911)]]


[[Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark]]
[[Image:IthacaModel37.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Ithaca 37]] - Another personal favorite shotgun that has had a long history of use by the United States.]]


[[Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom]]
[[Image:M4Super90.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Benelli M4 Super 90]] - Ah yes... another favorite semi-auto shotgun of mine...]]


[[Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade]]
[[Image:Browning 0-U.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun]] - I just love the feel of another one of Browning's magnum opuses, a double barreled shotgun where the barrels are not side-by-side, but rather, one on top of the other! Plus, the over-and-under design makes it a hell of alot easier to aim down the sights to hit your target.]]


[[Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull]]
[[Image:AA12FullAutoShotGun.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[AA-12]] - Talk about a shotgun designed for military use from the ground up! I would choose this is I needed to lay down some serious firepower for my buddies in a combat scenario. And talk about manufacturing and low-maintenance weapon as well!]]


[[The Crazies (2010)]]


[[King Kong (2005)]]
===Heavy Machineguns===
[[Image:BrowningM2.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Browning M2]] - Ah... John Browning's magnum opus... You want to rip your enemy into tiny little bite sized pieces? Then this is the gun for you my friend...]]


[[The Terminator]]
[[Image:MG42.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[MG42]] - Oh yes... another great and finely manufactured machine gun. While it is not American-made, it still packs a nasty wallop and will definitely send the bad guys coming onto your position turning the heel and crying for mommy!]]


[[Terminator 2: Judgment Day]]


[[Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines]]
===Miscellaneous Weaponry===
[[File:Cornershot Weapon Glock 17.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[CornerShot]] - It looks very cool and awesome to use, no?]]


[[Terminator Salvation]]
[[Image:M95A1.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Westinghouse M95A1 Phased Plasma Rifle]] - If there was one of many movie props that I would LOVE to own, this gun would be another one of those awesome prop weapons that I would proudly mount on my wall. It left a lasting impression upon me when I first saw it in action in Terminator 2, and I have always wanted to own one!]]

[[Future Weapons]] - Watching the next generation of weapons in action it pretty cool.
 
 
== Favorite Videogames ==
[[Left 4 Dead]] - What the videogame adaptation of the film 28 Days Later would be like
 
[[Left 4 Dead 2]] - Very good sequel to the previous game
 
[[Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare]] - A very well done videogame about a possible war happening in our time, and it FINALLY took players out of the World War II setting (Not that it's a bad thing, but it was getting old after awhile)
 
[[Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2]] - Awesome sequel! And it's a videogame that deals with that hypothetical war that ''could'' happen one day between the United States and Russia
 
[[Call of Duty: Black Ops]] - Wow, this one was pretty damn good. Maybe not as great as MW2, but it is still a great game
 
 
== Favorite Firearms ==
[[M1911]] - Best handgun ever made, PERIOD. If a woman were turned into a gun, then we would get the M1911...
 
[[Mauser C96]] - Elegant design if somewhat pricey. But if a gun was made to look good in film, the C96 is that gun (aside from the M1911)
 
[[Tokarev TT-33]] - A nice design and overall look to it. The look and feel is very reminiscent of an M1911/Colt Hammerless hybrid.
 
[[Ruger Mk III]] - If I need a naturally silenced, low-recoil weapon in a zombie apocalypse of the Living Dead, this would be my weapon of choice
 
[[Ruger Mini-14]] - I just like the feel of this weapon.
 
[[Smith & Wesson Model 29]] - "Do I feel lucky? Well do ya... Punk?"
 
[[Smith & Wesson Model 686]] - A little more powerful than the previous one, but it still begs the question to your target "Do you feel lucky? Punk?"
 
[[Smith & Wesson Model 500]] - Yeah, yeah, I know, this gun is an overpowered beast. But when you are under attack from a savage wild animal when you are out hunting, wouldn't you reach for this revolver?
 
[[M1 Garand]] - The best friend of an infantryman... PERIOD. You can drag this baby through the most roughest combat scenarios for a week without servicing it and it will still work for you!
 
[[AK-47]] - If you need a medium-range assault rifle that wont foul up easily in rough combat conditions, then this is the gun for you!
 
[[CornerShot]] - Ok, ok, I know this is not a real firearm, but it still looks very cool and awesome to use, no?
 
[[FN SCAR]] - An pretty good improvement over the M4 carbine
 
[[Steyr AUG]] - Why does this bullpup rifle get so much hate?
 
[[FAMAS]] - I like this rifle, it has such a good look to it and I also enjoy the feel and easy use of bullpup rifles
 
[[FN P90]] - It may look like a toy, but this gun still packs a nasty punch when the going gets tough. And now it's being used by both SWAT and other law enforcement agencies in the United States. Along with the Navy SEALS and the U.S. Secret Service


[[HK416]] - The fact that you can shoot this gun when it's waterlogged, muddy, dirty, or full of sand, makes it awesome
My airsoft guns are modeled after the following real-world firearms:


[[Thompson Submachine Gun]] - Perhaps the most famous American-made submachine gun that became famous in both real life as well as in the movies... the good old Thompson! Seriously, give me this gun over any other submachine gun any day of the week!
'''Colt M1911A1'''
[[Image:Colt M1911.jpg|500px|thumb|none|My Colt M1911A1 'YT385' airsoft pistol. This one is my personal favorite out of my current airsoft armory, since it perfectly mimics the layout of the original M1911A1 that was manufactured from 1924 onwards to the present day. However, there are no company logos or a serial number on the slide of this pistol like what the original M1911A1 has. I will soon replace the orange barrel with a metal one and black out the 'Made in China' logo. This gun is manufactured by a company called Yu Teng.]]


[[Heckler & Koch MP7]] - This is a good weapon for concealment and providing sufficient cover fire. I hear that the U.S. Secret Service also uses this weapon aside from the FN P90, hmm...
[[Image:Colt M1911A1.jpg|500px|thumb|none|The left side of my Colt M1911A1 'YT385' airsoft pistol. You can see that it is an almost-perfect replication of the original Colt M1911A1, everything from the grip safety, thumb safety, the 'S' and 'F' abbreviations for 'Safe' and 'Fire' on the thumb safety, and the 'G.H.D.' abbreviation below the slide lock when the pistol's slide locks back after it's magazine has been exhausted.]]


[[M1 Carbine]] - The best friend of a paratrooper, and the best friend of a zombie killer (If you don't get the meaning behind this phrase, read ''The Zombie Survival Guide'' by Max Brooks and you will know what I am talking about)


[[Mossberg 500]] - A good shotgun
'''Detonics CombatMaster M1911'''
[[Image:Detonics CombatMaster M1911 airsoft.jpg|500px|thumb|none|My latest addition to my airsoft armory, a new M1911 airsoft handgun that is a gas blowback airsoft gun like my S&W M&P .40 and Walther PPK/S are. This gun is manufactured by WE, a Taiwanese company known for making good, high-quality airsoft weapons that are sturdy, durable, and are built to last for YEARS as long as the owners keep them up to date and well-kept. This particular WE M1911 appears to mimic the Detonics CombatMaster M1911, which is why I chose that name for this image and the second one below. Oh, and the real name of the gun is called WE "Caspian Arms" M1911.]]


[[Winchester Model 1887]] - I don't know why, but I like the look of a shotgun that has that old Western-style lever action mechanism
[[Image:Detonics CombatMaster M1911 airsoft part 2.jpg|500px|thumb|none|Here is my WE "Caspian Arms" M1911 with the magazine out and the slide locked back. It is a pretty impressive bit of machinery by WE. And the orange screw on the end of the barrel is for attaching additional parts to the gun such as suppressors or compensators, which I will probably do so a little later on down the line. But no guarantees.]]


[[Remington 870]] - Nothing speaks "American made, American proud" better than this shotgun (Aside from the M1911)


[[Remington ACR]] - Damn! Another assault rifle where you can shoot it when it's waterlogged?! Why isn't the U.S. military using this?
'''Mauser C96/CM 712'''
[[Image:Mauser C-96.jpg|500px|thumb|none|My Mauser C96/CM712 airsoft pistol. This one, like my Colt M1911A1, is made out of an all-metal construction, and yes, the 'broomhandle' grip is made of ACTUAL WOOD. I thought it was plastic when I first opened the box, but to my surprise, the grips are made out of actual wood. Or rather, synthetic wood that perfectly resembles real wood. I took the orange plug off the end of the barrel for display purposes when I took this photo. This gun is manufactured by UK Arms.]]


[[AA-12]] - Talk about a shotgun designed for military use from the ground up! I would choose this is I needed to lay down some serious firepower for my buddies in a combat scenario. And talk about manufacturing a low-maintenance weapon as well!


'''AMT Hardballer Longslide 9mm Hybrid'''
[[Image:AMT Hardballer.jpg|500px|thumb|none|My AMT Hardballer airsoft pistol, it is modeled after the Longslide version of the M1911. However, unlike the last 2 airsoft pistols, this one is an all-plastic construction, nothing really fancy about it, but surprisingly, it has lasted me for 3 years when I bought it back in 2008. Despite all the wear and tear on the gun I might have caused to it, it still functions properly. One odd thing about this airsoft gun, is that there are trademarks on the side that claims it's a Longslide model chambered in 9x19mm... but the real-life AMT Hardballer Longslides are not chambered in 9mm... are they? But don't ask me about the name of the company that made this pistol, because the box it came in did not describe a company name at all.]]


== Least favorite firearms ==
[[M16 rifle series]] - Oh boy... I know this is gonna get me alot of hate mail, but come on folks. The M16 is such a piece of crap that can break under extreme stress such as rough, weathered, watery combat scenarios. It's been proven in Vietnam, and it is still proven to this day with the M4 Carbine. In fact, go to this link here [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AGwkHktkTxU] and you will see how hard the M4 fails in comparison to an HK416 in watery conditions. But to give the M16 the benefit of the doubt, I will say this; if I were to find myself in a combat scenario where I am fighting on city streets, THEN I would reach for the M16. But as far as fighting in the rough weathered elements? I would choose a rifle that wont get fouled easily


[[Glock]] - Now this one will get me another ton of hate mail... but seriously folks, Glock pistols are OVERRATED. All this false advertising that the company does about their guns never breaking, never jamming, and never going under stress in combat scenarios... it's all a load of crap. And now Glock has hammered the final nail in the coffin for the respect that alot of people once had for them when they went around suing airsoft companies for making airsoft versions of their firearms
'''Walther PPK/S'''
[[Image:Walther PPK.jpg|500px|thumb|none|My Walther PPK/S airsoft gun. This one, unlike the previous 3, is a CO2 gas-powered version that is manufactured by Umarex USA, and it's a very good airsoft pistol. It has an all metal construction with the exception of the grips and the magazine, and it fires METAL bbs instead of hard plastic ones. I just wish that Umarex didn't have to add that unnecessary twisting wrench built into the gun to tighten the CO2 canisters when you gas up this gun. Because it just makes it look a little bit too ugly. But in any case, this is a good airsoft handgun. But I would suggest getting a different Walther PPK pistol instead of this one if you don't want that ugly twisting wrench on the bottom.]]


[[XM8]] - I have one complaint about this new battle rifle that will never be put into production; if it is electronically powered, then in the event of an electromagnetic pulse attack, this gun would be out of action! Come on folks, would you rather have a gun that still works, or a gun that no longer works because it has a now-dead electric motor that was powering it in a "really going back to basics" scenario?


[[Beretta 92 pistol series]] - What a piece of crap this handgun is. Seriously folks, I don't understand why our boys and girls in uniform are armed with this piece of crap handgun that will break and jam easily in rough combat situations. I've handled both the Inox and M9 versions of this handgun at a gun store once, and the damn things felt like they were made out of cheap metal that would break easily in my hands!
'''Smith & Wesson MP .40S&W'''
[[Image:Smith&Wesson MP airsoft.JPG|500px|thumb|none|My Smith & Wesson MP airsoft pistol. This one is just like my Walther PPK/S pistol. It is a simple gas-powered pistol that is made of sturdy abs plastic, and the magazine is all metal. This airsoft pistol is manufactured by KWC (You can see the KWC logo on the accessory rail on the bottom), and licensed by CyberGun. Both companies have made superior and high-quality airsoft firearms over the years, and I tip my hat to them for going out of their way to make such good firearms. This airsoft gun is another one of my personal favorites, and it is my backup sidearm in any airsoft game that I play.]]


[[Franchi SPAS-12]] - Oh boy... this one is gonna get me another ton of hate mail... I can just feel it. But come on folks, the SPAS-12 is such an overrated shotgun that has been used WAY too many times in movies since the 1980s. What is so good about it anyway? Just because a villain in a movie handles that shotgun he is suddenly the most ultimate badass ever? And besides, the gun is known to have some serious faults as noted in the [[Talk: Franchi SPAS-12]] page here on the site
[[Image:Smith&Wesson MP airsoft 2.jpg|500px|thumb|none|The left side of my Smith & Wesson MP airsoft pistol. You can see that this pistol comes with the accessory rail on the bottom of the barrel of the handgun, and the trademarks on the front of the barrel that shows how this airsoft gun almost perfectly mimics the .40 caliber version of the S&W MP pistol, the S&W logo and where their manufacturing plant is located underneath the ejector port, and the "S&W Military & Police" logo is seen right before the slide ridges, and on the grips of the pistol. Pretty neat huh?]]


[[TEC-9]] - I won't comment on this gun being a piece of crap, but I will comment on how easily the company bowed to media and political pressure to shut down in light of recent events where criminals got a hold of this gun or outside variants of this gun and illegally converted them to fire full auto. And I will take my stab at the media and politicians by saying this; Congratulations on swaying the people of this nation by spreading false information and lies about this gun and the criminals who used it for ILLEGAL PURPOSES. You have hammered the final nails in the coffins of respect that VERY FEW people had for you idiots. I say no more


[[Desert Eagle]] - I will admit that this is a pistol that is good for HUNTING ONLY. But as far as a combat scenario goes? Nope, the Desert Eagle fails in that department. Besides, who really had $1 per bullet to spend on those massive Magnum rounds? Not to mention, the Desert Eagle itself is a pretty heavy handgun, and lugging it through a combat scenario could cause the user to get tired after awhile. And another thing, WHAT IS THE POINT OF A GOLD PLATED DESERT EAGLE? Seriously folks, it just jacks the price up even further on these guns and it's a completely useless addition to the weapon that will fade off the more the gun is fired/cleaned, so what is the point?
'''Mossberg 500/590'''
[[Image:Mossberg 500-590.jpg|500px|thumb|none|My Mossberg 500/590 airsoft shotgun. This is one of the many airsoft shotguns that does not rely on using shells for the bb's, but rather, relies on loading up the bbs through a small opening on the top of the shotgun (which saves players alot of trouble in trying to go around the battlefield trying to locate all the shells for their airsoft shotgun). And very much like my AMT M1911, this gun has lasted me for nearly 3 years when I bought it back in 2008. But like my other favorite M1911, I cannot tell you the name of the manufacturer of this shotgun, the box and the instruction manual didn't even name a company at all, all it gave be was a bunch of Asian gibberish that I could not understand.]]

I'm just a simple man trying to make his way in the universe.

Favorite Firearms

Pistols

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Colt M1911 - Best handgun ever made, PERIOD. Give me this weapon over any other handgun for personal defense or a combat situation. the M1911 is the PURE epitimy of sexiness in a handgun. It's like if a really hot woman were turned into a gun, then we would get the M1911... Maybe Jesus was reincarnated in John Browning...
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Browning Hi-Power - Another favorite of mine from the imaginative mind of John Browning. Great design, great looks, a good, sturdy feel, and another cinema classic.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
FN Five-seveN - Another great firearm that is manufactured by FN. As Justin Hammer says in Iron Man 2, the Belgians definitely make something better than waffles! And I would say the same thing for this gun as I stated for the M1911; It's as if someone took a really hot woman, turned it into a gun, and we got the FN Five-seveN!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Claridge Hi-Tec/Goncz GA - I like this pistol on the fact that despite the company differences between the original makers and the current makers of this pistol, it nails down that "space age" look that the overpriced and unwieldy Desert Eagle just doesn't cut out to be anymore, and both versions are finely finished and sturdy. Now it probably won't be long before Mr. Goncz sends me a threatening email asking me to remove this weapon from my user page, just like he has threatened this site before with legal action.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Colt Model 1903 - I absolutely love the look of this early Colt. And to think that it's overall look would be the look that the Colt M1911 would have later on! I love this firearm.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
SIG-Sauer P220R - Perhaps the only other .45 handgun that I can honestly say, I enjoy the look and feel of. If I did not have an M1911 in a combat scenario where I need some serious knockdown power, then I would reach for the SIG P220R.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
SIG-Sauer P229 - This is perhaps the ONLY 9mm handgun I would ever use. Why? One, because it is sexier than the Beretta 92, two, it is NOT an overrated weapon like the Glock pistols are, and three, the stainless look of the Sport model looks awesome!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Glock 21 - Ok, ok, I will admit that out of all the Glock pistols that have been manufactured, the Glock 21FS is pretty much the only Glock pistol that I can honestly say, I like the feel and the look that the pistol has. This would probably be my first choice in buying a pistol.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mauser C96 - Elegant design if somewhat pricey. But if a gun was made to look good in film, the C96 is that gun (aside from the M1911)
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Tokarev TT-33 - A nice design and overall look to it. The look and feel is very reminiscent of an M1911/Colt Hammerless hybrid. If I was ever dual-wielding handguns (a strongly discouraged tactic, but what the hell, it still looks pretty cool), then my choices would be this gun in my left hand, and an M1911 in my right hand.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Luger P08 - Pretty awesome handgun. You gotta respect the Germans for their exquisite firearms manufacturing.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Walther P38 - Yet another finely manufactured pistol by the Germans!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Jericho 941 - Gotta respect Israel's fine weapons manufacturing! And besides, this is more better to have at your side than an overpriced, unwieldy, heavy Desert Eagle.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
CZ-75 - Another finely manufactured pistol!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ruger Mk III - If I needed a naturally silenced, low caliber weapon that still packs a nasty punch when entering the brain of a zombie during an apocalypse of the Living Dead, then I would choose this weapon. I also like this pistol because it's look strongly resembles the German Luger P08, and that's cool.

Revolvers

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Webly Mk VI - A great series of revolvers made by the British during both World Wars!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Colt Single Action Army - This gun only deserves one phrase: "Be not afraid of any man no matter what his size; when danger threatens, call on me, and I will equalize."
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Smith & Wesson Schofield - This was another one of the greatest pistols in the West, too bad it was mostly overshadowed by Colt.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Smith & Wesson Model 29 - "Do I feel lucky? Well do ya... Punk?"
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
M1917 Revolver - Ah yes, another fine and exquisite piece of firearms manufacturing by Smith & Wesson... And perhaps the revolver competitor to the M1911 around the same time that both guns were manufactured.
Colt Anaconda - I just love the feel of this revolver. Plus, it's made by Colt, which is another reason why it's one of my personal favorites.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Smith & Wesson Model 500 - Yeah, yeah, I know, this gun is an overpowered beast. But when you are under attack from a savage wild animal when you are out hunting, wouldn't you reach for this revolver? Plus, if vampires or werewolves ever become a reality, then this gun would be the equivalent to Hellboy's Samaritan revolver! Along with the Desert Eagle!


Machine Pistols

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Kimel AP-9 - While some might argue that the plastic magazine and pistol grip frame is prone to breaking when the gun is fired, this gun actually nailed down what the TEC-9 failed in. And besides, it's better looking than the TEC-9, and it apparently has a finer finish and fit than the TEC-9. So that makes it pretty awesome.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Uzi - Even though there are far more superior submachine guns that outclass the Uzi nowadays, you can never beat that eternal badass look that the Uzi has. Even though you might not take down your opponent with the 9mm, you will sure delay their advance when you lay down a crapton of cover-fire with this gun.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Steyr TMP - Another badass submachine gun that, just like the Uzi, has gathered an eternal badass look in cinema as being either the bad guy weapon, or the weapon of the good guys. Even though you might not be able to take out your opponents with the 9mm, you can still delay their advance with a barrage of cover-fire.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Beretta 93R "Auto 9" - If there was one weapon from any movie that I would love to own, it would have to be the Auto 9. Even though I am not a fan of Beretta pistols in general, I gotta admit, if it wasn't for the Robocop movies, then this highly customized pistol would have faded into obscurity. This is truly a badass pistol.


Rifles

Kentucky Flintlock Rifle - Ok, ok, I can already hear you saying 'Josh! This rifle is SO outdated and no one uses it anymore!' Well guess what knuckleheads? If it wasn't for the Kentucky Flintlock then there would be no United States of America, now would there? That is why I love this rifle. She is a proud veteran of the American Revolution!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy" - Yep, I am a fan of this rifle, and the other updated variants of it that have been showcased throughout the raw years of the old West.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Winchester Model 1873 - Slightly better than the Model 1866, but still just as good.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Winchester Model 1876 - Perhaps one of the last greatest rifles in the production line of Winchester rifles.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ruger Mini-14 - I just like the overall feel of this rifle.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
M14 Rifle - Wow... I just love this rifle. Give me this rifle, a crapton of ammunition, camouflage, rations, and put me in a wooded area where I can easily hide, and I would use this rifle to it's fullest extent!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
M1A1 Carbine - The best friend of a paratrooper, and the best friend of a zombie killer (If you don't get the meaning behind this phrase, read The Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks and you will know what I am talking about)
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
M1 Garand - The best friend of an infantryman... PERIOD. You can drag this baby through the most roughest combat scenarios for a week without servicing it and it will still work for you!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
M1903 Springfield - Hell yeah, I love the look of the Springfield rifles. Sure, the bolt action can be a little bit clumsy if you are fighting in trenches, but if you are fighting underneath sufficient cover, you can still squeeze off your 5 rounds and put them on the targets.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mosin-Nagant M91/30 - This is perhaps one of the best rifles that the former Soviet Union has ever manufactured. And I will admit this; whenever I'm playing a World War II-themed videogame and there's a Russian campaign, I usually pick this rifle for secondary use.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Karabiner 98k - Ah yes, another finely manufactured rifle by the Germans! Too bad this rifle is becoming rarer and rarer nowadays... (Well, that's mainly due to the fact that Hitler and his Third Reich is no longer making these weapons!)
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
SMLE - Another great World War II rifle built by the British, and would see service even beyond the end of WWII! This is another rifle that I would LOVE to own.


Assault Rifles

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
M16A4 - Perhaps the best M16 rifle to come out of the family of those types of rifles. It has an overall nice look, and it feels great when handled. So yes, I will definitely reach for this rifle if I was charging out into battle and needed a good gun.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
AK-47 - If you need a medium-range assault rifle that wont foul up easily in rough combat conditions, then this is the gun for you! But I will also bite and say this, because this gun fires a heavier cartridge, that doesn't necessarily make it the superior weapon. After all, your enemy will end up living through the gunshot wound to fight another day.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Galil - If of course, you want an AK-based weapon that fires a round that will tear into your enemy and leave an ungodly, bloody mess, then the Galil is perhaps the better weapon for you. Besides, Israel makes some of the best weaponry in the world! So I suggest this weapon if you want a gun that looks alot like the AK, but fires a round that still packs a nasty punch.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
FN SCAR - A pretty good rifle that will probably be seeing frontline service in the United States Army very soon.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Magpul Masada - Damn! Another assault rifle that you can shoot when it is waterlogged?!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
FN F2000 - I absolutely love this bullpup rifle out all the other ones that are my current favorites. I just like the overall look and feel of the F2000. Then again, Belgium is known for 4 favorite pastimes: Good waffles, good chocolate, great beer, and kick-ass firearms!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
FN FAL - Another finely manufactured weapon from the Belgians! Too bad there are WAY too many videogames out there that showcase these rifles firing in semi-auto only. Grrr!!! >:(
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Steyr AUG - Why does this bullpup rifle get so much hate?
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
FAMAS - I like this rifle, it has such a good look to it and I also enjoy the feel and easy use of some bullpup rifles.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Tavor TAR-21 - Another finely manufactured bullpup rifle, and made in Israel nonetheless.


Submachine Guns

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Thompson Submachine Gun - Perhaps the most famous American-made submachine gun that became famous in both real life as well as in the movies... the good old Thompson! Seriously, give me this gun over any other submachine gun any day of the week!
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
FN P90 - It may look like a toy, but this gun still packs a nasty punch when the going gets tough. There was a claim some time ago saying that the 5.7x28mm SS190 FN rounds could penetrate 40 layers of Kevlar from 200 yards away, but I don't know how much of that is true. But nevertheless, the FN P90 is being used by both SWAT and other law enforcement agencies in the United States. Along with the Navy SEALS and the U.S. Secret Service.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
MP40 - Another great firearm manufactured by the Germans during World War II. And if I had to take a guess, the MP40 could have very well been a predecessor to the modern-day MP5 series of submachine guns!


Shotguns

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mossberg 500 - A great shotgun for those who want to get into shooting, and are looking for a good shotgun. I personally prefer the extended magazine tube version since I like to pack more rounds.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Mossberg 590 - A good shotgun in the Model 500 series of the Mossberg shotguns.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Winchester Model 1887 - I don't know why, but I like the look of a shotgun that has that old Western-style lever action mechanism that you would see in the rifles of that era. My reasons for liking this shotgun is because I saw it in action in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, and it is also a film used weapon that I would LOVE to own.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Winchester Model 1897 - This is yet another one of my favorite shotguns in the Winchester family. I especially love the "trench gun" version of this shotgun.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Winchester Model 1300 Defender - I like the feel of this shotgun, especially the 'Defender' version with it's extended magazine tube... more rounds eh?
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Remington 870 - Nothing speaks "American made, American proud" better than this shotgun. (Aside from the M1911)
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Ithaca 37 - Another personal favorite shotgun that has had a long history of use by the United States.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Benelli M4 Super 90 - Ah yes... another favorite semi-auto shotgun of mine...
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun - I just love the feel of another one of Browning's magnum opuses, a double barreled shotgun where the barrels are not side-by-side, but rather, one on top of the other! Plus, the over-and-under design makes it a hell of alot easier to aim down the sights to hit your target.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
AA-12 - Talk about a shotgun designed for military use from the ground up! I would choose this is I needed to lay down some serious firepower for my buddies in a combat scenario. And talk about manufacturing and low-maintenance weapon as well!


Heavy Machineguns

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Browning M2 - Ah... John Browning's magnum opus... You want to rip your enemy into tiny little bite sized pieces? Then this is the gun for you my friend...
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
MG42 - Oh yes... another great and finely manufactured machine gun. While it is not American-made, it still packs a nasty wallop and will definitely send the bad guys coming onto your position turning the heel and crying for mommy!


Miscellaneous Weaponry

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
CornerShot - It looks very cool and awesome to use, no?
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Westinghouse M95A1 Phased Plasma Rifle - If there was one of many movie props that I would LOVE to own, this gun would be another one of those awesome prop weapons that I would proudly mount on my wall. It left a lasting impression upon me when I first saw it in action in Terminator 2, and I have always wanted to own one!

My airsoft guns

NOTE: Feel free to use my airsoft images to put onto the discussion pages of the firearms that they represent, under the 'additional variants' sections. But please notify me first before doing so. Thanks!

My airsoft guns are modeled after the following real-world firearms:

Colt M1911A1

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
My Colt M1911A1 'YT385' airsoft pistol. This one is my personal favorite out of my current airsoft armory, since it perfectly mimics the layout of the original M1911A1 that was manufactured from 1924 onwards to the present day. However, there are no company logos or a serial number on the slide of this pistol like what the original M1911A1 has. I will soon replace the orange barrel with a metal one and black out the 'Made in China' logo. This gun is manufactured by a company called Yu Teng.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
The left side of my Colt M1911A1 'YT385' airsoft pistol. You can see that it is an almost-perfect replication of the original Colt M1911A1, everything from the grip safety, thumb safety, the 'S' and 'F' abbreviations for 'Safe' and 'Fire' on the thumb safety, and the 'G.H.D.' abbreviation below the slide lock when the pistol's slide locks back after it's magazine has been exhausted.


Detonics CombatMaster M1911

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
My latest addition to my airsoft armory, a new M1911 airsoft handgun that is a gas blowback airsoft gun like my S&W M&P .40 and Walther PPK/S are. This gun is manufactured by WE, a Taiwanese company known for making good, high-quality airsoft weapons that are sturdy, durable, and are built to last for YEARS as long as the owners keep them up to date and well-kept. This particular WE M1911 appears to mimic the Detonics CombatMaster M1911, which is why I chose that name for this image and the second one below. Oh, and the real name of the gun is called WE "Caspian Arms" M1911.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Here is my WE "Caspian Arms" M1911 with the magazine out and the slide locked back. It is a pretty impressive bit of machinery by WE. And the orange screw on the end of the barrel is for attaching additional parts to the gun such as suppressors or compensators, which I will probably do so a little later on down the line. But no guarantees.


Mauser C96/CM 712

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
My Mauser C96/CM712 airsoft pistol. This one, like my Colt M1911A1, is made out of an all-metal construction, and yes, the 'broomhandle' grip is made of ACTUAL WOOD. I thought it was plastic when I first opened the box, but to my surprise, the grips are made out of actual wood. Or rather, synthetic wood that perfectly resembles real wood. I took the orange plug off the end of the barrel for display purposes when I took this photo. This gun is manufactured by UK Arms.


AMT Hardballer Longslide 9mm Hybrid

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
My AMT Hardballer airsoft pistol, it is modeled after the Longslide version of the M1911. However, unlike the last 2 airsoft pistols, this one is an all-plastic construction, nothing really fancy about it, but surprisingly, it has lasted me for 3 years when I bought it back in 2008. Despite all the wear and tear on the gun I might have caused to it, it still functions properly. One odd thing about this airsoft gun, is that there are trademarks on the side that claims it's a Longslide model chambered in 9x19mm... but the real-life AMT Hardballer Longslides are not chambered in 9mm... are they? But don't ask me about the name of the company that made this pistol, because the box it came in did not describe a company name at all.


Walther PPK/S

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
My Walther PPK/S airsoft gun. This one, unlike the previous 3, is a CO2 gas-powered version that is manufactured by Umarex USA, and it's a very good airsoft pistol. It has an all metal construction with the exception of the grips and the magazine, and it fires METAL bbs instead of hard plastic ones. I just wish that Umarex didn't have to add that unnecessary twisting wrench built into the gun to tighten the CO2 canisters when you gas up this gun. Because it just makes it look a little bit too ugly. But in any case, this is a good airsoft handgun. But I would suggest getting a different Walther PPK pistol instead of this one if you don't want that ugly twisting wrench on the bottom.


Smith & Wesson MP .40S&W

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
My Smith & Wesson MP airsoft pistol. This one is just like my Walther PPK/S pistol. It is a simple gas-powered pistol that is made of sturdy abs plastic, and the magazine is all metal. This airsoft pistol is manufactured by KWC (You can see the KWC logo on the accessory rail on the bottom), and licensed by CyberGun. Both companies have made superior and high-quality airsoft firearms over the years, and I tip my hat to them for going out of their way to make such good firearms. This airsoft gun is another one of my personal favorites, and it is my backup sidearm in any airsoft game that I play.

You can see that this pistol comes with the accessory rail on the bottom of the barrel of the handgun, and the trademarks on the front of the barrel that shows how this airsoft gun almost perfectly mimics the .40 caliber version of the S&W MP pistol, the S&W logo and where their manufacturing plant is located underneath the ejector port, and the "S&W Military & Police" logo is seen right before the slide ridges, and on the grips of the pistol. Pretty neat huh?


Mossberg 500/590

My Mossberg 500/590 airsoft shotgun. This is one of the many airsoft shotguns that does not rely on using shells for the bb's, but rather, relies on loading up the bbs through a small opening on the top of the shotgun (which saves players alot of trouble in trying to go around the battlefield trying to locate all the shells for their airsoft shotgun). And very much like my AMT M1911, this gun has lasted me for nearly 3 years when I bought it back in 2008. But like my other favorite M1911, I cannot tell you the name of the manufacturer of this shotgun, the box and the instruction manual didn't even name a company at all, all it gave be was a bunch of Asian gibberish that I could not understand.
