Judging by the shape (and position, for that matter) of the grips, most or all of the photos purported to show the Type 92, would actually appear to show the earlier Type 3 HMG.

Nice job!
It looks really great! This movie really deserve a more complete page, and now it has one. Wonderful -MT2008
- Thanks, it's been sitting at the bottom of my DVD pile for a long time but I finally got it done. I also have The Jackal coming up, as well as making Flags of our Fathers look good. I also have The Last Boy Scout and The Mask, so I'll be busy this month. - Gunmaster45
- I think you should be commended for sitting through this. I tried once and left with the impression that the movie is actually longer than the war it was based on. Vangelis 12:56, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
- Give John a purple heart and an Bronze Star. I didn't like the movie either.-Oliveira 13:52, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
- Not enough purty explosions for you fellers? To much yappin' and not enough cappin'? To each his own.

The Death of Keck
Keck blows his own butt off by pulling a grenade by the pin, I get that, but if the safety lever (the spoon) is free to fly off and arm the grenade, how does the grenade remain attached to Keck's person? It is my understanding that grenades were worn by inserting the safety lever of a grenade into loops on a soldier's webbing or belt. Were that the case, Keck's grenade should have dropped to the ground before exploding. Regardless, he shouldn't have played around with the pin.207.200.116.132 01:20, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
