This seems a bit "ad-like" whats the fair-use rational on their logo? does the creator of this page work for the company or something? And another point, aren't we only supposed to list weapons that have appearances, not the whole weapon series?

This seems a bit "ad-like" whats the fair-use rational on their logo? does the creator of this page work for the company or something? And another point, aren't we only supposed to list weapons that have appearances, not the whole weapon series? I know there are exceptions, but I don't think this is one of them.
- No, I don't work for PWS or any other firearm-manufacturer company, and this is not the only weapon-page that features a logo. Could you explain why is this not one of the exceptions? Have you seen the weapon page of the LWRCi's M4-clones? Why are those an exception? And for the last, you can sign your post by clicking on the 10th button which says "Your signature with timestamp".

- I do think you might have been a little over-enthusiastic in including all the PWS weapons when only one so far has appeared in a videogame; you're probably better off moving the others to here until they've actually been in something. I know pages like TDI Vector have variants that haven't been in games listed, but the Vector only has one unused variant; this page has four. Also, I don't think it would have made a difference if he'd signed that, whoever it was wasn't logged in anyway. Evil Tim 09:07, 15 April 2011 (CDT)

- I know that this comment is 10 years old, but we now know that Independent Studio Services (ISS) has purchased PWS MK1 carbines, which have appeared in (at least) Baby Driver and Hawaii Five-0. I recently updated both pages, as well as this page.
