Cyborg

I wonder what was the original reason for deleting "Cyborg" movie page? Amazed by your photos and additions, by the way. You have access to some of the greatest firearms in movie history... --Kloga (talk) 10:36, 14 December 2013 (EST)

Ten year olds

I think it was Bulgarian kids, and it actually had it's own wiki, which threw me off. For a while, it seemed like he was improving, so I was willing to give him a little rope. He stopped trying to submit his own movie, and Violent Shit and Zombie Panic '90 were actually real feature-length films. I told him that people were unlikely to help him finish pages on grade-Z German horror films, so he moved on to mainstream features. I'm guessing this kid didn't hear "no" a lot from his folks. I wish we could impose an age limit as well, but I don't know how we could possibly enforce it. --Funkychinaman 10:38, 19 August 2012 (CDT)

What I meant was that Violent Shit and Zombie '90 were feature length films NOT made by the kid and otherwise eligible. (How a ten year old got his hands on them and how his parents allowed him to watch them is beyond me.) --Funkychinaman 12:35, 19 August 2012 (CDT)

The name is For Hire. Here's the link to the wiki. (Yes, it has its own wiki.) The kid on kid violence is disturbing. --Funkychinaman 15:29, 20 August 2012 (CDT)

Smith & Wesson 659

Hello. It has been awhile. I got that info about the trigger guard from the Standard Catalog of Smith & Wesson; 3rd Edition by Jim Supica and Richard Nahas, page 293. I also own the 2nd Edition and I just checked it as well. Says the same thing. I and others helped Mr. Nahas (last time I checked he was the curator for the NRA's museum in Virgina now) when he was putting together the 3rd Edition over on the http://smith-wessonforum.com with adding additional info, correcting mistakes and so on. Hell he thanks everybody to include me (Checkman). So I guess I'm taking it as an article of faith that it must be correct since it wasn't changed. However mistakes do happen and sometimes those mistakes get through the cracks and eventually become accepted as correct when they aren't. Hope that helps.--Jcordell (talk) 10:41, 9 September 2012 (EDT)

No problem. Actually I've had a Model 745 on layaway at a local shop. I'll be bringing it home this Friday. I also like the squared trigger guard. The price on the 745 was only $375.00. I'll be posting a photo of it in the near future over on the forum. Smith only made 5,000 745's between 86-90 so the opportunity was too good to let go. Plus at that price I couldn't let it go. Most 745's I see for sale (on the Internet) seem to be priced between 700-800 dollars. --Jcordell (talk) 09:59, 11 September 2012 (EDT)

CSI: NY - Season 6

Hey man. First of all I want to be clear, I am NOT questioning your change. You know far more about guns that I do... But in CSI: NY - Season 6 how the devil can you tell that is a S&W Model 60?! Or do you have insider information... --Zackmann08 (talk) 14:43, 7 March 2013 (EST)

Gotcha. I really wasn't challenging your ID, I was just impressed that you could tell based on that one screenshot. Thanks for the explanation. :-) --Zackmann08 (talk) 15:31, 7 March 2013 (EST)

Your Images

I had a thought. You are keeping a running list of images on your user page, which is freaking awesome and if I haven't said this enough I LOVE your images. As I'm sure you have noticed, your user page can be a pain to load because it has SO many images and it's hard to scroll through. Have you considered using the <gallery> code? It might be super helpful... Just food for thought. Your page so you can obviously do whatever the hell you want with it... But could be cool to have a "pistol" gallery, an "AK" gallery, etc. :-p --Zackmann08 (talk) 16:25, 7 March 2013 (EST)

Also as a follow up. 1) Did you like the blog post? 2) Do you happen to have access to a Beretta 92FS that has been Nickel Plated?? --Zackmann08 (talk) 01:18, 8 March 2013 (EST)

I responded on the forum. :-) --Zackmann08 (talk) 21:22, 10 March 2013 (EDT)

Hey

Hey MoviePropMaster, I would like to say welcome back and excellent work on the new pictures you have been uploading lately, it always brings me joy to see what you upload next. Also, I saw your post on the forums, and don't worry, I haven't went anywhere. Even if I'm not active on the site, I still check up on imfdb daily to see what's new. Nice to have you back and keep up the impressive work.--Alienqueen11 (talk) 22:04, 9 March 2013 (EST)

A little present for ya...

So its still a work in progress and there are bound to be dozens of typos and minor mistakes... User:MoviePropMaster2008/Photographs. Hope you like it. I am still working on it, and you can obviously change it around to categories that make more sense and what not but yea. hope you like it. :-) (Note that the actual page is in MY user space, the page I linked you to is just including what I am working on.) Also, I started a template for you. {{MPM}}. You can change the text but I figured this would be an easy way for you to put your copy-write info in each picture's description. --Zackmann08 IMFDB Chief of Operations (talk) 15:53, 12 March 2013 (EDT)

When you have a bit more?! What do you mean when you have more?! You have over 1,000 pictures! lol. You do amazing work man. Everyone has their own system so you keep your stuff in whatever order you want. This is just another option. Its also been super helpful for Bunni and I with the facebook posts lately. :-p Anyway, glad you like it. Hope all is well with you and work is going well. --Zackmann08 IMFDB Chief of Operations (talk) 01:25, 17 March 2013 (EDT)

Nice work

Hey MPM, beautiful work on that big batch of pictures you uploaded last night, they are simply amazing. If I can help you out in anyway, let me know. Also, I wasn't sure if you forgot about this one:

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

--Alienqueen11 (talk) 23:06, 16 March 2013 (EDT)

I understand what you mean, many of these new additions must be hard to sort out, but like you said it is good to have them when they appear in something rather then the stress of trying to find them when they do. Also, your trip to South Africa sounds amazing, it would great to get some pictures of exotic weapons that you wouldn't find in the states, I hope you do manage to find a way to get there, and if you do get there, please be careful. As for the gun control debates that have been going on for the past several months, I agree, it's crazy especially with those sad tragedies that have happened over the past year, I just hate it when good and responsibles gun owners or those who work with guns are blamed for the deeds of bad people, and I'm sorry if you have to put up with that kind of harrassment, it can be difficult since people tend to freak out easily these days. Also, I think I would rather prefer real blank adapted firearms then airsoft replicas, sure airsoft can be pretty realistic in terms of details, but blanks make a movie or show much more authentic when comes to guns. Like I said if you need help, just give me the page or image you need worked on, and I'll help out the best I can on it, keep in mind, much has changed since I last did major editing here, so I may not be familiar with the ways the newer users edit the site. Glad to hear from you too, and once again, glad to have you back.--Alienqueen11 (talk) 01:35, 17 March 2013 (EDT)

Yes, I am on a PC. I use VLC. --Ben41 (talk) 06:27, 17 March 2013 (EDT)

Noticed your note to Ben

You will have great difficulty getting Blu-Ray caps with any modern capture program, Bunni tells me this is because bootleggers were using scripts with older programs to screenshot every frame of a Blu-Ray disc and then stitch them back together into a movie after recording the sound. Sadly any method you can use to take screencaps of a Blu-Ray disc can also be used to pirate one; Ben's using an older player IIRC which hasn't had the screenshot feature removed. Most other methods involve expensive equipment (projectors / capture devices) and are probably not legal in the strictest sense, I know studios have sent Cease & Desists to people on other forums who've posted on how to take high-quality Blu-Ray screenshots.

Winchester Model 62A image

Is this Winchester Model 62A image one you took, or just one you found online?

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Winchester Model 62A - .22LR

If it is one you took are your sure that it is actually a Winchester rather than a copy, as the pump looks too bulky and only has 16 grooves rather than the Winchester which has 16. My guess is that it is a Rossi Model 62SA, as that only has 16 grooves on the pump, along with the fact that the logo on the left of the receiver looks like the Rossi one. Below is a picture of (what I think is) a normal Winchester Model 62A with the slimmer pump with 17 grooves:

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Winchester Model 62A - .22LR

I think both actually appear in currently listed stuff, for example the rifle in 30 Cases of Major Zeman has 17 grooves hence a winchester, and the one in Stargate SG-1 - Season 10 has the Rossi's 16 grooves.--commando552 (talk) 08:23, 17 March 2013 (EDT)

Smith & Wesson 32 Hand Ejector

No feel free. I don't own the copyright. I found it.........well truth be told I can't remember where I found it. Somewhere on the Internet. All I really can tell you was the incorrect identification of the S&W 32 on the LA Confidential page had bugged me for a couple of years and it finally reached critical mass and I made the change. --Jcordell (talk) 15:37, 19 March 2013 (EDT)

Yeah so am I. --Jcordell (talk) 18:33, 19 March 2013 (EDT)

Yep goes to show you one shouldn't try to type while talking on the phone to one's teenage daughter about something very important - to a teenager.. No that image isn't copyrighted by me either. I snagged it from a gun forum. No idea where that poster got it from. But it was too good to pass up. --Jcordell (talk) 18:36, 19 March 2013 (EDT)

SL8 with 30 round mag pic

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Do you know if this picture of yours is of a real gun or if it is a photoshop mock up? I ask because from what I've read it is a hard conversion to get an SL8-1 to take the 30 round mags requiring machining away the entire crimped part of the receiver, filling the gap with epoxy and then colouring the whole thing. The other reason I ask is that there are a few parts of the SL8 in this picture that are off, such as the vertical ridge at the rear of the receiver above the serial number window. Normally this is at the front of the window, but on this gun it is a few centimetres further back for some reason. The scope rail is also goes slightly too far back at the rear yet is in the correct place everywhere else, and some of the other parts and proportions are sightly off. --commando552 (talk) 08:54, 11 April 2013 (EDT)

Thanks for getting back to me. If its a real gun then fair enough, it just looked a little "off". Didn't occur to me that the mag could be a dummy 30 stuck on the bottom of a single stack, a much easier solution to all the hacking, slashing ad filling required to do it for real. Only reason I asked about this was that I recently did a bit of a reorg of the SL8 section and wanted to make sure it was captioned correctly. --commando552 (talk) 12:59, 13 April 2013 (EDT)

Invasion USA

It looks like you can rent it from Amazon Instant for two bucks, eight if you want to keep it. Netflix has it as well, but not for streaming. One of the newer users expressed an interest in finishing it, more power to him. --Funkychinaman (talk) 23:13, 11 April 2013 (EDT)

Speaking of Red Scare films, I was just thinking this morning about doing a page for Big Jim McLain. I should do it back to back with Dalton Trumbo's Johnny Got His Gun. --Funkychinaman (talk) 23:25, 11 April 2013 (EDT)

The Spook Who Sat by the Door

(1) I have been to your talk page and cannot find a way to post a message there. Help, please.

Sorry about that. I forgot that a my talk page was locked for admins only, and I actually don't remember why. I think it was during the feud with Liam and others (usually from the UK) who were constantly vandalizing our pages. I remember that a particular vandal named Liam seemed overly obsessed with hating me. Well. that seems to be over and my apologies. You were right in that you were unintentionally blocked from writing on my talk page. Thanks for the updates and input MoviePropMaster2008 (talk) 17:40, 24 April 2013 (EDT) (

2) Perhaps you did not notice my edit. I eliminated the words, "one of the most influential films" (which it was, for black directors), and replaced it with the entirely factual "listing on the National Film Registry." Readers are free to decide for themselves the value of such an honor and the film's viewers can decide what to make of the movie.

For some reason, I cannot find the page, Birth of a Nation, The, on IMFDB, but simply because it was racist should not preclude its inclusion on the list. In any case, the term, "influential," does not insinuate approval, IMHO. Triumph of the Will is undeniably an influential and evil motion picture. By the same token, John Wayne's The Alamo (1960) is considered to be controversial by Hispanics for its alleged racist, revisionist depiction of the Texas War of Independence, but it is still a worthy of inclusion on the IMFDB, in my opinion.

(3) Your comment did inspire me to create a new category, National Film Registry, of which I hope I have your approval. Thanks. --Elzzupa (talk) 15:42, 24 April 2013 (PST)

Watermark Your Images

What do you think about adding the IMFDB logo on the images that you haven't done so already? Like the Model 29? --Ben41 (talk) 03:36, 11 January 2014 (EST)

Who is this? I don't answer anonymous posts. This has been a long time policy with me :D Sorry. MoviePropMaster2008 (talk) 02:06, 11 January 2014 (EST)

According to your page history, it was Ben41. It's weird how only part of the signature is there. --Funkychinaman (talk) 02:37, 11 January 2014 (EST)

I thought maybe of the adding the logo to your images, but it's probably better that you do it. You could probably just redo the most popular images such as the Model 29 and MP5 images. --Ben41 (talk) 02:46, 13 January 2014 (EST)

Breaking Bad

When I split a page up into separate seasons, I put the original code in one of the unused discussion pages so I can access it more conveniently. --Ben41 (talk) 02:46, 13 January 2014 (EST)

I'll make sure that I remove the categories on the old code in the future. --Ben41 (talk) 02:38, 14 January 2014 (EST)

Re: Hey! You're back!

Great to see you too, MPM2008. I have quite a bit of free time on my hands quite often, and I noticed that the seasons of Heroes were in dire need of a revamp, so I decided to return to screencapping and give them a redo. So, how has life been with you, how's work and the movie business coming along? Also, do you have any new gun pictures coming soon? I understand if you're busy. Anyway, thanks for the hello, hope you had a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year as well.--Alienqueen11 (talk) 03:47, 25 January 2014 (EST)

Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan!

We've allowed films with Tanegashimas in the past, so it'd be hard to disqualify a game with only Tanegashimas. I certainly don't like it, and Ben actually told a user who went on a samurai film spree to stop, but it seems to meet the requirements. The user has provided screencaps, the weapon appears to be clearly identifiable, and it appears to be an eligible title. If he keeps going, we'll probably tell him to focus on other genres though. (What do you think about Virtua Cop?) --Funkychinaman (talk) 04:10, 21 April 2014 (EDT)

I suppose #4 would not apply here. We're also assuming this is the only weapon in the game. I'll ask the guy. --Funkychinaman (talk) 04:24, 21 April 2014 (EDT)

About the SPAS

Hello, sir! I just felt like asking out of curiosity since you've got lots of experience with the SPAS 12. How is it that you've handled 6 and they're really bad at functioning when...well, I know comparing experience to YouTube videos are bad but, how come they actually manage to get all 6-8 shots out of their gun in semi-auto? I get that blank-firing doesn't exactly work with that but you mentioned live fire so I thought Id ask. Thanks! --RandomYoungPerson

P.S. This is the first time Ive actually posted something on an edit or talk page, do you know how to link my name to my page whenever I post things like these like you guys do?

Book of Eli

Yes, the user had contributed a few more screen used weapons, and since there wasn't an image of the other side, I put that there. If you want to upload the opposite picture, I'll put that one up on the page and place the other one on the discussion page. --Ben41 (talk) 02:14, 13 December 2014 (EST)

Hi

Hey, man, are you still around? Check out what I wrote on (Timecop) - Custom Assault Pistol. I've managed to get an ID on our mystery Canadian machine pistols. -MT2008 (talk) 14:19, 2 February 2015 (EST)

Mortars

Just a question regarding a number of odd-looking mortars I've seen on movie pages; do movies sometimes use fake mortar barrels on real stands and bases? I've seen a couple on the site that seem to have tubes that are thin-walled and longer than they'd normally be, and I'm wondering if they aren't just fabrications with pyro charges in them or something.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

These two (from Rambo and Fury) seem to be the same slightly-too-long M1-style 81mm mortar. It resembles a French LLR 81mm, but I wouldn't think that would be a common stand-in for an M1. Any thoughts? Evil Tim (talk) 18:33, 12 February 2015 (EST)

Spy Hard

Hey, I noticed that IMFDB has no page for Spy Hard, and I was about to create one when I noticed that there was a page for this movie, but was deleted by you back in 2009. I have no idea what the page looked like back then, but think I have identified pretty much every gun seen in the movie (there's one pistol I'm not sure about) with plenty of screencaps, and I was wondering if I could recreate the page.

(1) please identify yourself when you post on a user talk page ;)

(2) Any page that was deleted in the old days was because it was either horribly done at the time or the person used pirate/bootleg images of bad quality. There is no prohibition against any page being made as long as it is up to the standards of IMFDB and qualifies per the rules and regulations. :D MoviePropMaster2008 (talk) 16:18, 23 May 2015 (EDT)

John Doe

I apologize if anything is missing on the John Doe (2002) page. I saw that there were empty entries with no weapons images and wanted to help you out. I go ahead and let you finish. --Ben41 (talk) 21:33, 24 May 2015 (EDT)

Question

Hi i from the USA & i am older did 18 & 21 and i am new to imfdb my question is how do you remove a picture & put up pictures because in Gangster Squad Karl/Holt used a World War 2 Browning Automatic Rifle with no carry handle but on the Gangster Squad page it say that he used a early Browning Automatic Rifle but the early ones & the World War 1 version did not have a magazine guide if you look closely at the rifle magazine in the picture you can see the magazine guide that mean it's a m1918A2 World War 2 model so how do i put the correct model & picture up on the page ? or can you change it to the correct model ?

-Huh, that's interesting. I always figured Stembridge would have mostly -90 series guns that looked just like those "MP5s" that appear in so many productions they've rented to. Any idea why those HK94s were never converted further to make them look like more realistic MP5s? As my ''[[Air Force One]]'' page shows, Stembridge basically left those guns as-is well into the 1990s.

But could be cool to have a "pistol" gallery, an "AK" gallery, etc. :-p  --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] ([[User talk:Zackmann08|talk]]) 16:25, 7 March 2013 (EST)

-I just finished working on the ''[[Air Force One]]'' page for this site. That movie features some type of short-barreled AK which looks just like the one from ''[[True Lies]]''. Here's a picture:
-[[Image:AFO-shortyAK-2.jpg|thumb|none|500px|]]
-The next time you talk to Harry Lu, would you mind asking him what these guns are and who owns them (Stembridge?) Thanks! -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-==Re:==
-The new pictures are really cool, as usual. I especially love the M16A1 with A2 handguards picture, because there are a lot of Hollywood movies featuring guns with that config, and it's great that we now have a picture to prove to our visitors how you sneaky armorers have deceived so many of us common folk action movie fans with those fake M16A2s! Haha, just kidding. Anyway, how did you get your hands on a Diemaco? Remember Al Vrkljan, the Canadian armorer who helped me out on ''[[The Incredible Hulk (2008)]]''? He told me that Diemaco/Colt Canada wouldn't sell any of their guns to his company or any civilian companies, so where did it come from?
-Also, you brought up an interesting point on the ''[[American Gun (2006)]]'' page...as an armorer who works in the film industry, how do you feel about the anti-gun attitudes that seem so prevalent in Hollywood? Does it ever frustrate you and make you not want to rent your guns out to people who are so overtly anti-RKBA? I've always wondered how armorers feel about the people they work with.
-Appreciate the effort on the Type 84 and two-tone P226 pics. Whenever you get a chance!
-==What do you think...==
-...of the article on the [[Colt Flare Launcher]]? -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-:Trust me, I'm not offended. I respect and share your commitment to ensuring accuracy on this site, especially since you're obviously far more qualified to talk about guns in film (and guns in general) than I will ever be. -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-== Oh, yes, and one other request...==
-I have another request, this one a bit more unusual. I recently did a page for ''[[2 Fast 2 Furious]]'', which features a two-tone SIG P226 of West German manufacture that has a stainless frame and a regular black slide and barrel. It looks like the armorer just combined two existing guns to make it (since the two-tone P226s usually have black frame and stainless slide), and I'd love to have a picture of something identical for my page. So if you ever get out those two P226s that you photographed for IMFDB back in June, do you mind combining this:
-[[Image:SigP226.jpg|thumb|none|250px|]]
-..and this...
-[[Image:SigP226Nickel.jpg|thumb|none|250px|]]
-...to make this?
-[[Image:2F2F-P226-10.jpg|thumb|none|500px|]]
-[[Image:2F2F-P226-13.jpg|thumb|none|500px|]]
-...and then taking a picture of it for me? Also, if you put the slide and barrel from the stainless P226 on the frame of the black P226, you'd have a gun identical to the one from ''[[Face/Off]]'' which we could use for that page.
-:Now THAT is news to me. I'm really surprised...finishes really make the fit of the parts THAT difficult? Wow. I don't think the gun above is a factory job because the two-tone P226s that SIG has sold are always black frame and stainless slide, not the other way around. Do you by chance know who supplied the weapons for ''[[2 Fast 2 Furious]]''?
-:Thanks for the info, as always.
-==Re: Back for a bit==
-I do think you're right and that there are some SKS rifles in ''[[Platoon]]'' (which may or may not be Chinese Type 56 copies, for all I know). I own that movie on DVD, so as soon as I get back to my place, I'm gonna have to pop it in my laptop and watch again to be sure. Also, thanks for backing me up on the CAR-15 variants in the film - I was pretty sure they were 653s, and I know that particular model was exported in large numbers to U.S. allies during the 1970s (if you ever check out any Arab-Israeli war photos from the news, even today, you'll see many IDF personnel using them).
-I was also suspicious of the "MAC-9" page, because I have never heard of that variant. On the other hand, I had no idea that the 9mm variant of the MAC-10 was called the "MAC-10/9"; I've usually just heard it referred to as a MAC-10. I figure "MAC-9" was just somebody butchering the spelling of "M11/9", which has appeared in lots of movies (I made the entry for that gun under the MAC-10 page myself, though someone else put down - inaccurately - that it was used in ''[[Blue Streak]]'').
-Sorry to hear Josh Brolin broke a gun...indeed, how DO you bend a trigger guard? Then again, he's had some issues with the law lately, so maybe it's not too surprising. What film is he working on that required him to carry a Police Chief Special, anyway? Some period piece, I take it? I don't know how frustrating it is to be an armorer, but I can imagine...I mean, if you've rented out dozens of guns to one production, doesn't that make you lose your nerve to think how much those guns must be getting tossed around, even with armorers on-set to supervise their use? Also, remember when you sent me that picture of guns to ID from your vault? How many did I get right?
-That's cool if you can get a picture of a Chinese Tokarev. Later. -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-==Tokarev==
-MP2008,
-Nice to see you're back on the site! Hope you've seen some of GunMaster45's recent work (especially on ''[[Heartbreak Ridge]]'' and ''[[Platoon]]''.
-Anyway, I'm curious...do you by chance have a Chinese Type 54 copy of a Tokarev in your company's inventory? I ask only because I've seen those in quite a few movies, and I figure we should have a picture of one for this site. Also, I thought that only Chinese Tokarevs have the frame-mounted safety? I have little experience with them, but I thought I remembered reading that...please educate me if I'm wrong!
-==Re: A pic and an update==
-Good lord, is that what Heaven on Earth looks like? I can see (from left to right), an AR with a triangular forearm (M16A1 or AR15 SP1, I can't tell, but the selector appears to be on semi!), an FN MAG, an MP5A2 with slim forearm, a shorty AR with a 10" barrel, an AKM variant, an FN Minimi, a G36E, two AR carbines with what appear to be 14.5"+ barrels, what I believe to be an MG3 and an MG42, and then a PK or PKM. Behind the MG3, I see the barrel shroud of what might be an M1919, but I can't tell for sure. All I know is that I seriously hope my own safe looks like that...some day (as it stands, my GSA-imported Chinese AK is the only "evil"-looking gun I own).
-As far as changing the pages...totally fine. I never intended to leave our conversations on there permanently...only long enough to make sure that the guns were properly identified. Of course, I'm quickly learning that you're usually right!
-Sorry you've got so many guns to clean...I've heard stories about the way that blanks wear guns in comparison to live rounds, so I know how busy you must be! As far as replacement parts go, please replace that slim forearm on the MP5 (which I see has a tag). I've always found those slim forearms on ANY H&K long gun to be annoying because I can't get a comfortable grip on them; they're just way too narrow (and this is coming from a guy with pretty small hands!) I imagine anyone who has to fire hundreds of rounds out of that gun (until the director gets a satisfying take of an action scene) would also start to hate it.
-Haha...thanks for the vault picture. Talk to you later. -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-==Long-barreled AK under-folder==
-Here is the gun from ''[[The X-Files]]'' I mentioned to you. Found these on a fan site for the show. They're not great quality, but you can see it pretty well:
-[[Image:X-files-Type84-4.jpg|thumb|800px|none|]]
-[[Image:X-files-Type84-3.jpg|thumb|800px|none|]]
-[[Image:X-files-Type84-2.jpg|thumb|800px|none|]]
-[[Image:X-files-Type84.jpg|thumb|800px|none|(This one is from a different episode)]]
-It's clearly an under-folder, it has a long barrel, but it also has what appears to be a .223 mag. And it seems to have a hooded front sight in the first pic. Any idea what this might be? It's appeared in several episodes of the show from a couple of seasons, and I always thought it was a Type 84 under-folder fitted with the barrel from an RPK clone. -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-::Mike Sudrow is listed on IMDB as having worked on a few episodes of ''[[The X-Files]]''. Since the show lasted so long (nine years), I imagine they probably had many, many different armorers depending on the season/filming location.
-::As far as Canadian armorers go, Al Vrkljan of Movie Armaments Group was on here a couple months ago. He corrected me on the ''[[The Incredible Hulk (2008)|Incredible Hulk]]'' page by telling me that, interestingly enough, Diemaco/Colt Canada won't sell its weapons to film armorers in Canada! He also told me more about those mystery grenade launchers we were discussing earlier, plus he updated the page with more guns that I had missed. I really hope he comes back; he said he might be able to get some pictures of the launchers for us.
-::No worries on the ''[[Heat]]'' stuff, although I think you actually mean Gunmaster45, not me. As far as buying handguns go, I have yet to even try it in my home state (NC) because I live in Orange County and you have to get three "references" (people who are county residents) to apply for a purchase permit at the sheriff's dept. Sadly, Chapel Hill is full of overly-liberal people whom I wouldn't be comfortable asking to sign my permit application, so I've never bought a pistol here even though I'm of age - I've just inherited pistols from my grandfather. Ah, well, maybe if I wind up re-locating to Texas for this new job, I can finally buy that SIG P226 I've always wanted... -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-==Re:Re:Sahara==
-Thanks for going so far out of your way to get the photo of the Type 84 with the AKM-style sight...I realize it must have been a hassle! However, I wasn't saying they put an AKM sight on a Type 84; I simply thought the front sight itself indicated the gun was a Type 84 because my eyes suck and it looked hooded to me from that perspective.
-As far as the source goes, I believe Crowntower Limited supplied the weapons that were used in ''[[Sahara]]''. I say that based on a couple of deductions: Sascha Robey was one of the armorers who worked on ''[[Casino Royale]]'' as well as ''[[Sahara]]'', Crowntower is listed in the credits of ''[[Casino Royale]]'' (but not ''[[Sahara]]'') as the weapons supplier, and finally, if you look at our ''[[Casino Royale]]'' page, the AKs in that film top look identical to the one in ''[[Sahara]]'' that we were talking about. Perhaps this Sascha Robey rented the same guns for two films.
-==Re:Sahara==
-A lot of what you've said makes sense...BUT, there's still something bugging me about the third screenshot. Either my eyes really suck, or that is still a Norinco-style sight in that shot. HOWEVER, the first screenshot does, admittedly, show what appears to be a standard AKM-style front sight. Compare:
-[[Image:ComparisonSaharaAK.JPG|thumb|800px|none|]]
-I'm also confused because I have seen Type 84s fitted with mags that LOOK like the Romak mags, even if they aren't, like the one in the picture I posted. Anyway, is it possible that they used two different weapons for this "hero" gun use, and one was a Romak (or whatever) and the other was a Type 84 re-styled to look more like the Romak?
-BTW, I didn't correct that typo; Gunmaster45 did. -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-Oh, yeah, and the screens are really cool. As far as people's sudden interest in ignored pages, I guess it has to do with the fact that once they see somebody's worked on it in the "Recent Changes" section, they glance at it, and then they're more likely to spot mistakes they didn't see before.
-:OK, you know what? My eyes ''do'' suck! I just stood way, way back from my monitor and squinted, and now I see that it's not a hooded Norinco sight; it's just the angle makes it appear circular. You are right; it can't be a Type 84, or anything that uses Type 84 parts. And I'm guessing that also means I could be wrong about the ''[[Casino Royale]]'' AKs, too.
-:It's kinda strange, though...I wouldn't have figured British armorers would use civilian AK variants that were essentially geared towards the U.S. firearms market.
-==I, Robot SMG==
-Excellent, I'm glad to see you found the scene in ''[[I, Robot]]'' where it shows a close-up of the SMG's receiver and the Spectre's safety is visible. I was beginning to think my memory had failed me and that I was wrong...but I remember seeing this movie in the theater, on the big screen, and seeing that exact same image in your screenshot. Immediately, I thought to myself, "Spectre M4!" Actually, only a few months before the movie came out, I was at a gun show where one of the dealers had the semi-auto carbine version on his table...probably how I recognized it so quickly!
-BTW, I believe the trigger and pistol grip are one unit on the Spectre. It looks to me like the armorers who worked on ''[[I, Robot]]''  just removed it and added that PSG1-style grip, but never bothered to put on a replacement trigger guard. - [[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-==M70==
-Hi,
-Do you think we should really have a separate page for the [[Zastava M70]], instead of just putting it under the [[AK-47]] page, as we did for the [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56]]? - [[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-:I see your point. However, my personal criteria is that we should keep all conventional 7.62x39mm AK-type assault rifles on one page. Although the M70 series are by no means straightforward AK-47/AKM copies (due to the ladder sight and the mix of stamped receiver with traditional AK layout, like on the Type 56), they are still basically pretty conventional rifles, as opposed to say, the Norinco Type 86 or the Saiga and Vepr series. I feel it'd probably be better to keep the M70 on the [[AK-47]] page, especially since I haven't seen any movies yet that feature weapons like the M76 or M77. This is, of course, sort of a gray area and one of the biggest problems with this site, IMO.
-:Also, I feel compelled to point out...there's an episode in ''[[Ultimate Force]]'' where "Russian" soldiers are actually seen using M70Bs and Type 56s, which is of course ridiculously inaccurate (the episode takes place in the present-day Chechen conflict).
-==RE: RE: Studio Weapons==
-You more than answered the question, thank you.  I have seen some pictures of places that do the rentals and, frankly, privately list them as places I would most want to work. ''"No we don't have a .50 cal minigun on the shelves but I can check in the back."''  Once again thanks for the info and for the earlier compliments.  Incidentally, I am working on a new one..."Farewell to the King" (1989)..should have it ready in a few days.
-Do studios still keep their own "arsenals"?  I was given the impression that most, if not all, firearms for movies were in the private sector.
-== RE: Images ==
-No skin off of my nose what images you use mate.  Fact of the matter is, when you boil it down, pretty much all the images we are using on here are not "legal".  So which ones you use, from whatever site are ok with me.  Frankly, as far as I go, I try to only use images which do not have another web site's watermark on them.
-==RE:==
-First of all, cheers for the update on the Type 84 picture. There's no hurry; I understand if it takes a while to get the appropriate mags (since obviously, a Type 84 doesn't look very different from a Type 56 without them).
-Second, while I don't speak for everyone on here, I can say that I personally do not have any problem with you replacing pictures of guns on this site (even those that I uploaded) with any that you took. Nor do I see why anyone else would. The only reason I can imagine anyone getting offended would be if they went to the same effort you do to get the guns and photograph them on their own. But pretty much everyone else on here just uploads pictures they copied from other gun sites, in some cases ''airsoft'' web sites (like that picture we used to have of the SP89, which was just an airsoft MP5K fitted with an SP89 handguard from DenTrinity; terrible!). And it doesn't take much time or effort to copy and upload someone else's work.
-Additionally, your gun photos are obviously of superior quality to anything else on here, and they're of guns that have actually appeared in movies (possibly the same movies as the pages they're on), so as far as I am concerned, there really isn't any reason why we can't replace any existing photos of guns with the ones you've taken. In fact, I would encourage you to ''not'' be so timid in the future when it comes to replacing photos. If you want an example of what I mean by this, take a look at the [[Armalite AR-18]] page. Your AR-18 picture is way better than any of those on the page, so I don't see any reason why you can't just remove some of the others (maybe keep ONE of the other photos of the gun with the scope, and even that could be replaced if you took an equivalent picture).
-One thing I will point out, though: I have sometimes used pictures on my pages that are from the web site of Rick Washburn's company Weapons Specialists, Inc. (http://www.weaponspecialists.com/index.php). They provided the guns for ''[[I Am Legend]]'', so the page for that movie now features pictures of the guns used in the film that I copied and uploaded from them (including the tan-framed Mark 23). In cases like that, I'd prefer those particular photos stay up (you'll know them because I always provide links and info mentioning where they're from) because they feature the actual movie guns, and they're decent quality. Besides that, I don't have any problem with you replacing any and all photos of guns on this site with yours.
-==Chinese Type 56==
-First of all, I GREATLY appreciate the photo you took of one of the ''[[Goldeneye]]'' AKs for me. I didn't know you had access to any British armories?
-However, I have one question: Do you think it's really appropriate to classify the Chinese Type 56 rifles with stamped receivers as "AK-47" and "AKS-47" clones, as opposed to AKM/AKMS derivatives? I realize that the Type 56s with stamped receivers lack just about all of the other features of the AKMs (including the muzzle break, ribbed receiver cover, rate reducer, grip rails, narrower front sight, etc.), but I've usually heard them described as AKM copies simply to distinguish them from the earlier milled-receiver versions. I know this is an over-simplification of sorts because the Type 56s aren't really orthodox AK-47s or AKMs (they're more like a weird hybrid version), but I figured it would be more appropriate.
-:Well, I would say I know the differences between the two. I must point out that I own a Chinese AK (mine was imported by Golden State Arms and simply has 'AK47S 7.62x39mm - Made in China' stamped on the receiver). I was simply curious whether the presence of a stamped receiver on the Type 56 made it worthy of being designated an AKM variant or not.
-:Personally, I think the best bet might be to literally just create a new sub-entry for the Type 56 under the [[AK-47]] page and then we can focus on finding any and all movies that feature the Type 56 and putting them under there. This would reflect best the fact that the Type 56 is sort of a weird hybrid AK-47/AKM with distinctly Chinese characteristics (such as the hooded front sight), which most other AK derivatives (like the Maadis) don't have.
-::Haha, no offense taken, just wanted you to know I'm not a complete newbie when it comes to AKs, though obviously you completely blow me out of the water. Anyway, I would definitely appreciate the Type 84 pic whenever you get a chance. Not sure if there's anything else I need at the moment...but I would strongly encourage you to just take pictures of whatever you can get your hands on. As I've said, it's really great that we have you because this site is full of pictures that are copied from sites like world.guns.ru or (in some cases) AIRSOFT websites (i.e. the SP89 picture that we used to have before I replaced it).
-::BTW, these are some incredible pics you've gotten us lately, moreso than usual. How on earth did you get that Romanian AIMS from "44 Minutes"? Do you know Thell Reed, too? Also, I'm going to do a LITTLE bit of additional work on the [[AK-47#Type 56|Type 56]] entry, and I think I'm also gonna ditch the AKS-47 one for now (simply because there don't seem to be any movies I'm aware of that have actual milled-receiver Russian AKS-47s or close copies) and move all the Type 56-1 entires down. If you disagree, you can revert (or partially modify) the edits and I won't mind. Also, good work on the [[RPG-7]] article getting the Type 69 mentioned (it's something I wanted to do myself - mostly because "Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" also has a Type 69).
-==Re: Editing Dogs of War==
-Thanks for the info. I've seen those guns in a whole bunch of movies and I always wondered what they were, who made them, and why. I think they've also appeared in a couple episodes of ''[[The A-Team]]'' and a Chuck Norris movie or two.
-I have some great screenshots of the fake Uzis which I took for my ''[[Raw Deal]]'' page (I've been meaning to work on it for ages, but so far, I just never have managed to get around to it). Here they are:

-== Red Dawn ==
-OK, I was simply confused because I thought you were saying that the Egyptians didn't call the full-auto version they made for their armed forces the Misr, which would contradict almost every book and web site on AKs I've read. You obviously know far, FAR more than I do, so I think it's perfectly fine if you want to edit the page to refer to the guns as Maadi ARMs. Perhaps it might also be reasonable to put in a note that the ARM is the semi-automatic version of the Misr or something? Also, please post the picture of the "Red Dawn" AKM you took.
-Appreciate your contributions, and (especially) your photographs. It's really cool that we have somebody like you on here. Do you by chance have any pictures of the Norinco/Poly Tech AKs that the rental armories purchased in the 80s? A long, LONG time ago, somebody put one of them up for sale on GunBroker; I wish I had saved the picture. I'm also curious to know if you have pics of the Norinco Type 84...I've been trying to get a good one to add to the ''[[Casino Royale]]'' page and my ''[[Harsh Realm]]'' page for a while now.
-:Wow, thanks! Yeah, I'd prefer the basic fixed-stock configuration since the ones in ''[[Casino Royale]]'' and ''[[Harsh Realm]]'' seem to have that (except the wood on the CR guns looks like it can't be factory), but I wouldn't encourage you to go TOO far out of your way, as I recognize you must be really busy.
-:Which armory is it that you have access to?
-==Re: My two cents on the Hulk Launchers==
-Yeah, I think you're probably right...it looks to me that the armorers were shooting for an M32 look but couldn't get the real deal, so they took civilian launchers (most likely DefTech) and modified them heavily. I notice that there seem to be a lot of 37mm launchers which are depicted as HE grenade launchers in movies (i.e. Colt 37mm Flare Launchers substituting for M203s). I guess this is another case of the same deal.
-Sure, you can re-post the CZ99 pic. It isn't "mine"; I took it from world.guns.ru, which is where many of the photographs of guns on this site come from (as you can imagine, that's why I'm happy to have someone like you who is willing to give us original photos, especially when they're of actual movie guns).
-== Thanks ==
-[[The Dogs of War]] was one of my first "efforts" here.  I knew, already, that you saw a guy running around with a [[MAC-10]] during the weapons training phase but did not know there was one of those cheesy ass "fake" [[Uzi]]s.  Oh, the same goes for the Car-15s.
-Incidentally, I forget what movie I saw it in but there was a fake [[Uzi]] in it and the foregrip on it was rotated so that the front sight was actually pointed downward!!!

-Hey MoviePropMaster, I'm Alienqueen11, and I seen the images you have uploaded, and they're great.

-==Question==
+== Nice work ==
-[[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]: Hi, I was just wondering how is it you take a picture of a gun and get a perfectly white clear background? What method is used to get that effect? My other question is that on the [[Hollow Point]] page I made recently, did I get the AK varient right? I figured I'd ask you as you seem to be the AK pro on the site. Thanks.
-(My list of pages is on my profile if you feel like checking any of my other work as well.)
-==M14 rifle==
+Hey MPM, beautiful work on that big batch of pictures you uploaded last night, they are simply amazing. If I can help you out in anyway, let me know. Also, I wasn't sure if you forgot about this one: [[File:S&W1006.jpg |thumb|none|400px|]] --[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] ([[User talk:Alienqueen11|talk]]) 23:06, 16 March 2013 (EDT)
-I've noticed that the M14 and M21 rifle pictures on this site aren't really that great, is there any chance you could take some good shots? The pictures now are blurry, or black and white.
-==37mm Launcher==
+I  understand what you mean, many of these new additions must be hard to sort out, but like you said it is good to have them when they appear in something rather then the stress of trying to find them when they do. Also, your trip to South Africa sounds amazing, it would great to get some pictures of exotic weapons that you wouldn't find in the states, I hope you do manage to find a way to get there, and if you do get there, please be careful. As for the gun control debates that have been going on for the past several months, I agree, it's crazy especially with those sad tragedies that have happened over the past year, I just hate it when good and responsibles gun owners or those who work with guns are blamed for the deeds of bad people, and I'm sorry if you have to put up with that kind of harrassment, it can be difficult since people tend to freak out easily these days. Also, I think I would rather prefer real blank adapted firearms then airsoft replicas, sure airsoft can be pretty realistic in terms of details, but blanks make a movie or show much more authentic when comes to guns. Like I said if you need help, just give me the page or image you need worked on, and I'll help out the best I can on it, keep in mind, much has changed since I last did major editing here, so I may not be familiar with the ways the newer users edit the site. Glad to hear from you too, and once again, glad to have you back.--[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] ([[User talk:Alienqueen11|talk]]) 01:35, 17 March 2013 (EDT)
-Thanks for fixing up that page, I was told by MT2008 it was a Colt Launcher, I guess it was a Cobray. Finding the pictures of them was probably the hardest thing on the page. Do you think we should keep the M203 to launcher comparison picture or is it irrelevant? -GM
-::I built the colt launcher page based on what MT said, but your input greatly helped it. It's a shame taking professional pictures is so complex. The best I have is photoshop and an erase brush. I have a Norinco Type 54 pistol and I wanted to put pictures of it on the site soon. I'm not bad with editing, it should come out okay. I just need to find the time to do it. The M14 rifle pics came out great, let me know if you get your hands on an M21. I'll have plenty of films to be corrected in the future, my to do list touches the sky.  One or two every friday or saturday. Stay cool. -GM

-==Bren 10 "Peregrine Falcon"==
+== Noticed your note to Ben ==
-:Here's a tricky task, do you think you could find a Bren 10 "Peregrine Falcon"? Aparently it is what John Practice uses in [[Last Action Hero]] according to user input, and I can't find a good picture of it. Until I do find a good picture, I'll have to keep my horrible AR-24 picture I had on their before. If it isn't a Bren 10 PF, I'd assume you of all people would shoot me straight.
-[[Image:StarMegastarLastActionHero.jpg|thumb|none|400px|This is the picture of him with the Bren 10 "Peregrine Falcon". His is a tutone model, but I'm not that picky. If both can be had, it would make a nice page in the Bren 10 gun section.]]
-==M1911/M1911A1==
-::I apoligize for asking one more thing of you, but the M1911 and M1911A1 pistols are infamous works of art in the firearms world, commonly used in films. We got a repro M1911 picture (modernized), a Springfield M1911A1 (when Colt M1911A1 is the genuine picture desired), another M1911A1 with pachmyr grips (better than springfield, but see how it sticks out on Platoon? It's ''too'' modern) So is their any chance you could find a genuine (or prefered, an ''authentic'' reproduction) of a Colt M1911 and Colt M1911A1 to snap some shots of, that would be awesome. I trust you know them apart, your a pro. Thanks. Good luck. -GM
-==Re:Last Action Hero==
+You will have great difficulty getting Blu-Ray caps with ''any'' modern capture program, Bunni tells me this is because bootleggers were using scripts with older programs to screenshot every frame of a Blu-Ray disc and then stitch them back together into a movie after recording the sound. Sadly any method you can use to take screencaps of a Blu-Ray disc can also be used to pirate one; Ben's using an older player IIRC which hasn't had the screenshot feature removed. Most other methods involve expensive equipment (projectors / capture devices) and are probably not legal in the strictest sense, I know studios have sent Cease & Desists to people on other forums who've posted on how to take high-quality Blu-Ray screenshots.

-I saw [[Last Action Hero]] when I was young and loved it. Now, it is still one of my favorites. I like how it makes fun of action movies, by showing how Arnold can fire a billion rounds from a Desert Eagle and cars just explode for no reason. I'll fix those problems you mentioned. Your saying they are more likely civilian TEC-9s instead of TEC-DC9's? What physical traits help determine this, just the sling? And they were firing full-auto so they were probably converted.
-== Hi! ==
+== Winchester Model 62A image ==
-Still no replacement grip for the M70?
+Is this Winchester Model 62A image one you took, or just one you found online?
+[[File:Winchester-Model-62A.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Winchester Model 62A - .22LR]]
+If it is one you took are your sure that it is actually a Winchester rather than a copy, as the pump looks too bulky and only has 16 grooves rather than the Winchester which has 16. My guess is that it is a Rossi Model 62SA, as that only has 16 grooves on the pump, along with the fact that the logo on the left of the receiver looks like the Rossi one. Below is a picture of (what I think is) a normal Winchester Model 62A with the slimmer pump with 17 grooves:
+[[File:Winchester Model 62A.jpg|thumb|500px|none|Winchester Model 62A - .22LR]] I think both actually appear in currently listed stuff, for example the rifle in ''[[30 Cases of Major Zeman]]'' has 17 grooves hence a winchester, and the one in ''[[Stargate SG-1 - Season 10]]'' has the Rossi's 16 grooves.--[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 08:23, 17 March 2013 (EDT)
-Shame, it looks strange with that grip - I'm used to seeing them on M76s and M72s... which reminds me: about that mystery long barreled AK - I know that Crvena Zastava makes under-folder RPKs, namely the M72A (7.62 - based on M70), and the M90A (5.56 - based on an assault rifle of the same designation). The under-folder RPKs (those with an "A") have removable bipods (the standard, solid-stock ones have fixed), so w/ the folding stocks and w/o bipods they would look like those mystery AKs, no? Also, one more improtant fact: unlike the Yugo AKs (which have 3 holes), the Yugo RPKs have TWO holes in the forward grip (like the original AKs). http://pookieweb.dyndns.org:61129/Yugo/pics/m72a.jpg

-Here the picture I had on the page when I thought his shotgun was a Mossberg 500:
+== SL8 with 30 round mag pic ==
-[[Image:Mossberg500.gif|thumb|none|335px|[[Mossberg 500]] 12 ga. with optional ghost ring sights.]]
-And this is the image I have on the page now, seeing it now, they look nothing like the sights in the screencap:

-[[Image:870p.jpg|thumb|none|335px|Remington 870 Police Magnum with magazine extention tube and ghost ring sights.]]
+Do you know if this picture of yours is of a real gun or if it is a photoshop mock up? I ask because from what I've read it is a hard conversion to get an SL8-1 to take the 30 round mags requiring machining away the entire crimped part of the receiver, filling the gap with epoxy and then colouring the whole thing. The other reason I ask is that there are a few parts of the SL8 in this picture that are off, such as the vertical ridge at the rear of the receiver above the serial number window. Normally this is at the front of the window, but on this gun it is a few centimetres further back for some reason. The scope rail is also goes slightly too far back at the rear yet is in the correct place everywhere else, and some of the other parts and proportions are sightly off. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 08:54, 11 April 2013 (EDT)
-And it looks like the armorer must have put the Mossberg sights on the Remington:
+:Thanks for getting back to me. If its a real gun then fair enough, it just looked a little "off". Didn't occur to me that the mag could be a dummy 30 stuck on the bottom of a single stack, a much easier solution to all the hacking, slashing ad filling required to do it for real. Only reason I asked about this was that I recently did a bit of a reorg of the SL8 section and wanted to make sure it was captioned correctly.  --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 12:59, 13 April 2013 (EDT)

-Excellent! I already have a use for the 870 folder, too - just put it on the ''[[RoboCop]]'' page (which features an identical weapon). And thanks for the UMP-45 and the Gen 2 Glock-17 as well! There are so many movies that feature Gen 2 Glocks, yet all we have is that stock picture of a Gen 3. When I get back to my place later today, I'm going to start using your Glock in every movie page that features such a gun.
+:(1) I have been to your talk page and cannot find a way to post a message there. Help, please.
+::Sorry about that. I forgot that a my talk page was locked for admins only, and I actually don't remember why. I think it was during the feud with Liam and others (usually from the UK) who were constantly vandalizing our pages. I remember that a particular vandal named Liam seemed overly obsessed with hating me. Well. that seems to be over and my apologies. You were right in that you were unintentionally blocked from writing on my talk page. Thanks for the updates and input MoviePropMaster2008 (talk) 17:40, 24 April 2013 (EDT) (
+:2) Perhaps you did not notice my edit. I eliminated the words, "one of the most influential films" (which it was, for black directors), and replaced it with the entirely factual "listing on the National Film Registry." Readers are free to decide for themselves the value of such an honor and the film's viewers can decide what to make of the movie.
+:For some reason, I cannot find the page, [[Birth of a Nation, The]], on IMFDB, but simply because it was racist should not preclude its inclusion on the list. In any case, the term, "influential," does not insinuate approval, IMHO. ''Triumph of the Will'' is undeniably an influential and evil motion picture. By the same token, [[John Wayne]]'s [[The Alamo (1960)]] is considered to be controversial by Hispanics for its alleged racist, revisionist depiction of the Texas War of Independence, but it is still a worthy of inclusion on the IMFDB, in my opinion.

-Thanks yet AGAIN for the improved two-tone P226 picture. Weirdly enough, I completely failed to notice that the one in ''[[Face/Off]]'' had a silver hammer until you pointed it out. But it's great that you have a better eye for detail than I do, and moreso that you corrected it. And, of course, thank you for answering my questions about movie guns to the best of your ability. I think your idea for a 12-gauge pump page is perfectly useful, though I must point out that if it can't be categorized, it's gonna be hard for other users to find it. In order to make sure people see it, please add links to it on pages for the shotguns it distinguishes from each other. That would be the best way to make sure your word gets out.
-Hope you don't mind, but I've already shown your SIG pics on SIGforum.com to draw attention to our site. I'd show your H&K pictures on HKPRO forum (where I also post), too, if their forum wasn't down every other minute. I dunno if you post on any other gun-related boards, but if you do, show off your pics and point folks to IMFDB. The more attention, the better. We've already got 55,000 views from the ''[[Heat]]'' page (which features your P220 and M16A1 pictures, among others), so spread the word and more people will discover the beauty of IMFDB with its original movie gun pictures, taken by an actual movie armorer!

Also, speaking of AKs (and here I go again making your request list longer), a new AKM pic would be nice. Not to sound unappreciative, but I tend to shy away from the one you took just because the red stock looks out-of-place and ugly, plus the magazine is the plastic type rather than the ribbed type. If you can get a picture of one of the Maadi AKMs with the right stock, plus a metal ribbed-style mag (which is more the "classic" style, if you will)...great.

-Yep, that's the exact same picture I looked up to remind myself what an M76 was. Actually, I think I always thought that the M76 just referred to their long-range rifle, and I didn't remember that their smaller-caliber AKs were called M76. But I did know off the top of my head that it couldn't be Zastava because their full-sized AKs always have the folding GL sight, and the ''[[Casino Royale]]'' AKs don't.
-BTW, any idea what's wrong with the [[Taurus PT92]] picture you gave us? I just put it on the page for ''[[The X-Files]]'', and now it's disappeared. A search of the page history indicates no act of vandalism.

-== Should cartoons be allowed? ==
-I want to know if it is either no one cares about the fact that cartoons like Family Guy, The Simpsons, American Dad, and recently South Park had been allowed to this site. I have don't think these pages should exist because do you think about the rare guns that appears on those shows and wonder what they are? Cause I sure don't. I'm too busy laughing my ass off to how funny these series are, not wondering if the shotgun Homer used in the Zombie episode was a Winchester Model 1887 or that it never appeared in any other episode following. I don't care and I dont think anyone else should care. We're getting cartoon fanboys that thinks just because Family Guy has an episode where Stewie has a closet full of look alike guns, means we should write a page about them. Those guns are not the point of the show and the artist that drew them obviously didn't take much consideration for them or mention. I think Family Guy, The Simpsons, American Dad, and South Park be removed at once. None of them deserve to be on this site. And whoever puts them here doesn't respect this site enough.
-::That's a little harsh. I added some of the info on those pages, thank you. I was eventually going to do the South Park movie, because it does in fact have some pretty obvious guns in it. Personally I think they shouldn't be removed but if they are to stay, someone should take the time to screencap them and show us what they are talking about. -GM45
-==Reign of Fire==
-I just finished screencapping [[Reign of Fire]] and before I upload them on the page, I wanted to see if you knew what this gun is. Based on what I see I'm assuming it is a .577 Nitro Tyrannosaurus Rex rifle built personally by the Mauser company's greatest gunsmiths based on the Mauser rifle type extractor/bolt release and the Mauser style firing pin striker seen on the gun. At first I thought it was a Model 70 or a Mauser sporterized and then they show what big ass rounds he loads in it so now I just don't know. I figured of all, you'd likely know best. Also, if it is a T-rex rifle, I'd likely need a picture of it because as usual, the internet sucks for finding gun pics. I know this gun is rare but so is the .600 Nitro double barreled rifle, but that is seen in [[The Lost World: Jurassic Park]] despite that. I'm not expecting a picture from you because I know how rare and expensive it is but I figured if it ever came up I could count on you.

-::I've decided to upload the movie tommorow to give you more time to respond. -GM
-: I didn't expect you'd have one, after all it isn't a mass produced company gun. Major members of the Mauser company make it customly crafted. You'll see it all on the page in a sec. Also, the pic I uploaded I had to edit so it was horizontal and since it had 4 whited corners after turning it, I had to clone the corners in. Once you know, it is far more obvious to tell where I edited.
-==Re: New Pics==
-What I meant is that I want to make sure people on this site see how thorough you are, and how accurately you match guns to requests. Remember that AR15 Sporter that you visually modified to look like an XM177 from ''[[The Dogs of War]]''? Or the two SIG P226s you made to look the ones in ''[[Face/Off]]'' and ''[[Bad Boys II]]''? Those are the kinds of gun pics that I want to show off to new folks. What I would do is just make a page that briefly explains your contributions, and then shows guns you've photographed and how close they are to those in the movies. This is an unformed idea, I admit, but basically, I want people browsing this sight to understand (1.) That your images are exclusive to IMFDB, and (2.) That they're basically close representations of what those users have seen in movies. I know I'm not being terribly articulate, but do you understand what I mean?
-And don't worry about replacing previous pics with your pics. The rest of us will continue to do that for you, as we've been doing. So far, we've pretty much replaced all of the old M16s, M4s, Berettas, Glocks, Kar98s, MP40s, etc. with your guns. I think I'm gonna start putting your USP pic on our pages, too (except those that feature the larger .45 variant of the USP, like ''[[Collateral]]'').-[[User:MT2008|MT2008]]
-==AK-47 recognition page==
-Now that you've made a Shotgun page, why not make an AK page to tell a Norinco from a Maadi from a genuine, from a poly tech, etc.
-Also, maybe an M16 page for slab sides, A1s, A2s, etc.
-It would probably help the users out a lot. I'm sure the shotgun page did. Personally, I have trouble telling a Norinco Type 56 aside from its hooded sight. Perhaps a couple of close ups of sight placement, recievers and all that will make me a more efficient I.Der. -GM45
-== Dawn of the Dead ==
-Hey, MPM2008, I uploaded some more shots of Ving Rhames' shotgun in [[Dawn of the Dead (2004)]] if you want to take a look, it's in the Custom Remington 870 section of the page. Thanks in advance.--[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] 03:48, 19 October 2008 (UTC)
-== Hey ==
-Hey, MPM2008, do you want me to put protections on your images so no one can revert them if they've been upload over with images from the internet in the past, or upload over them? I'm asking this because some user keeps uploading a crappy picture from the internet over your H&K USP40 image. And if you want, I could ask Bunni to make you a mod or I can take the protections off them whenever you want to edit them or upload a new version of them. Let me know what you want to do.--[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] 20:24, 22 October 2008 (UTC)
+:: I'll make sure that I remove the categories on the old code in the future. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 02:38, 14 January 2014 (EST)
-Update: I protected all your images, and I also asked Bunni to make you an adminstrator so you can upload new versions of or revert them if want. If you not made an admin right away, just tell me what image you want to access, and I'll unlock it for you. I'm sorry I had to do this, but I wanted to prevent idiots like the guy who kept uploading over your H&K USP40 from changing your pictures, and I promise, if I ever get the ability to block users back, I will undo the protections. See you soon and good luck.--[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] 03:07, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
+== Re: Hey! You're back!  ==
-:Made you a mod, enjoy. [[User:WikiSysop|WikiSysop]] 22:42, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
+Great to see you too, MPM2008. I have quite a bit of free time on my hands quite often, and I noticed that the seasons of [[Heroes]] were in dire need of a revamp, so I decided to return to screencapping and give them a redo. So, how has life been with you, how's work and the movie business coming along? Also, do you have any new gun pictures coming soon? I understand if you're busy. Anyway, thanks for the hello, hope you had a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year as well.--[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] ([[User talk:Alienqueen11|talk]]) 03:47, 25 January 2014 (EST)
-== Response ==
+== Ryu ga Gotoku Kenzan! ==
-Thanks, I will always make sure your images stay the way they are. And I didn't understand that user either, I told him politely a bunch of times to stop, but he wouldn't listen. What really intrigues me most is how somebody could prefer a crappy image they probably found on Google Images over an excellent well photographed image such as yours. As for being a mod, congratulations, but I most warn you that the block function is not working at this time, but Bunni is trying his best to fix it, but you will be able to delete any pages or images you don't want, and you will also be able to protect pages. And if we ever get the ability to block back, that one user is going to be the first on my list.--[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] 02:20, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
+We've allowed films with Tanegashimas in the past, so it'd be hard to disqualify a game with only Tanegashimas. I certainly don't like it, and Ben actually told a user who went on a samurai film spree to stop, but it seems to meet the requirements. The user has provided screencaps, the weapon appears to be clearly identifiable, and it appears to be an eligible title. If he keeps going, we'll probably tell him to focus on other genres though. (What do you think about ''[[Virtua Cop]]''?) --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 04:10, 21 April 2014 (EDT)
+:I suppose #4 would not apply here. We're also assuming this is the only weapon in the game. I'll ask the guy. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 04:24, 21 April 2014 (EDT)
-As for the 870, take as much time as you need to, I'm sure it'll be worth the wait when it's uploaded. I will also have more requests in the future, but I won't bother you with them right now. And I also I have a question, I read your new project pictures thing on your user page, and when you say 870 riot configurations, do mean Remington 870s similar in appearence to the one seen in [[Walking Tall]]? Thanks, and good luck, I can't wait to see any future images you upload.--[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] 02:20, 24 October 2008 (UTC)
+== About the SPAS ==
-Update- MPM2008, you are now able to block vandals.
+Hello, sir! I just felt like asking out of curiosity since you've got lots of experience with the SPAS 12.
+How is it that you've handled 6 and they're really bad at functioning when...well, I know comparing experience to YouTube videos are bad but, how come they actually manage to get all 6-8 shots out of their gun in semi-auto? I get that blank-firing doesn't exactly work with that but you mentioned live fire so I thought Id ask.
+Thanks! --RandomYoungPerson
-==Re:Special page==
+P.S. This is the first time Ive actually posted something on an edit or talk page, do you know how to link my name to my page whenever I post things like these like you guys do?
-Well, that's fine. But now that you're a mod and your images can be protected, I don't think there's much to worry about. I also think it would just be cool if new users understood right off the bat that IMFDB has essentially its own movie armorer. -MT2008
+== Book of Eli ==
-== Other Request ==
+Yes, the user had contributed a few more screen used weapons, and since there wasn't an image of the other side, I put that there.  If you want to upload the opposite picture, I'll put that one up on the page and place the other one on the discussion page. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 02:14, 13 December 2014 (EST)
-Hey, MPM2008, whenever you get the chance, is there a possiblity you can get me a Beretta 92FS Inox or Stainless model of the Beretta 92FS? Thanks in advance. Also, good work with your recent images, I really like the new Walther P99, I was going to ask for one, but you thought about it before I did. Keep up the great work.--[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] 21:51, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
+==Hi==
-==Sin City Yellow Bastard's custom 92FS==
+Hey, man, are you still around? Check out what I wrote on [[(Timecop) - Custom Assault Pistol]]. I've managed to get an ID on our mystery Canadian machine pistols. -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]] ([[User talk:MT2008|talk]]) 14:19, 2 February 2015 (EST)
-YB's Beretta 92FS in [[Sin City]] is a unique blend of a factory black and an Inox model, similair to SIG-Sauer used in 2 fast 2 furious. Since AQ11 just asked for an Inox, if you get your hands on one, do yuo think you could mix the two together. This is the gun in the movie.
-[[Image:SC92FS-3.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Note how it has reverse tutone rather than the typical factory style.]]
-Thanks -GM45
+== Mortars ==
-== Re: Pop Quiz ==
+Just a question regarding a number of odd-looking mortars I've seen on movie pages; do movies sometimes use fake mortar barrels on real stands and bases? I've seen a couple on the site that seem to have tubes that are thin-walled and longer than they'd normally be, and I'm wondering if they aren't just fabrications with pyro charges in them or something.
-I think that may be a [[Smith & Wesson Model 27]], as it comes in both .357 Magnum and .38 Special and looks similar to the one used in ''[[Bad Boys]]'' by the main villian. [[User:Orca1 9904|Orca1 9904]] 06:55, 27 October 2008 (UTC)Orca1_9904
+[[Image:Rambo 81mmMortar 02.jpg‎ ‎|thumb|none|600px|]]
+[[File:Fury Mortar.jpg|thumb|none|600px|]]
-:Isn't the Mod 27 a larger frame?  That's what's stumping me.  It looks like the frame of a model 10. MPM2008.
+These two (from ''Rambo'' and ''Fury'') seem to be the same slightly-too-long M1-style 81mm mortar. It resembles a [http://www.army.mil.za/equipment/weaponsystems/infantry/images/mortar_81mm.jpg French LLR 81mm], but I wouldn't think that would be a common stand-in for an M1. Any thoughts?

+== Spy Hard ==
-::Arghhh. I had better go back to the vault and check.  I keep on thinking it's a Model 19-2, primarily because the Mod 27-2 barrel looks different than this one.  Thanks so much for the effort.  MPM2008
+Hey, I noticed that IMFDB has no page for Spy Hard, and I was about to create one when I noticed that there was a page for this movie, but was deleted by you back in 2009. I have no idea what the page looked like back then, but think I have identified pretty much every gun seen in the movie (there's one pistol I'm not sure about) with plenty of screencaps, and I was wondering if I could recreate the page.
+::(1) please identify yourself when you post on a user talk page ;)
+::(2) Any page that was deleted in the old days was because it was either horribly done at the time or the person used pirate/bootleg images of bad quality.  There is no prohibition against any page being made as long as it is up to the standards of IMFDB and qualifies per the rules and regulations. :D  [[User:MoviePropMaster2008|MoviePropMaster2008]] ([[User talk:MoviePropMaster2008|talk]]) 16:18, 23 May 2015 (EDT)

-==RE:animated gifs==
+== Question  ==
-I have a lot of high-tec computer editing crap, I likely could do it. I just don't know how. My sister is computer wiz, I see if she can figure it out. I had all three of those Heat GIFs saved on my Myspace. Just a heads up, I'm gonna be doing [[The Punisher (2004)]] soon, so you can check that out. I can't make you any promises on the animated GIFs tho. -GM
-==Re: Reign of Fire==
+Hi i from the USA & i am older did 18 & 21 and i am  new to imfdb my question  is how do you remove a picture & put up pictures because in Gangster Squad   Karl/Holt used a World War 2 Browning Automatic Rifle with no carry handle but on the Gangster Squad page it say that he used a early Browning Automatic Rifle but the early ones & the World War 1 version did not have a magazine guide  if you look closely at the  rifle magazine in the picture you can see the magazine guide that mean it's a m1918A2 World War 2 model   so how do i put the correct model & picture up on the page ? or can you change it to the correct model ?
-Thanks. Take your time on the Ultimax, it isn't a big deal right now. Wiki just made me an Admin. so I'm feeling pretty damn special right now. I'm going to get the Punisher (2004) on today, than I'm finally back on track with my original list. -GM45
