This is also here so its not red.
Joint Operations
Did you use to play a video game for the PC called "Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising"? Hoot471 20:43, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
No I haven't, all my games are on the 360, why do you ask? Alex T Snow 12:21, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
- Just someone I knew from that game had the same name as you. But thanks for responding anyway :) Hoot471 08:03, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
Wow, that's really random, thanks for asking ;) Alex T Snow 08:32, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
Battlefield 3
I removed the extra manufacturer names you added; sorry to have to take down all your hard work, but no other page on the wiki is formatted like that; typically you're just supposed to use the name of the article / subsection you're linking to as the heading. What the new additions do need is links and images, though. I'll get on to that tomorrow if you don't do it first. Evil Tim 09:45, 2 October 2011 (CDT)
- It's okay, and I hadn't gotten to images and links yet, I just wanted to make sure everything was up, and I think everything is now. Alex T Snow 16:19, 2 October 2011 (CDT)
- I've always found the naming on this site is weird, it's normal to put the manufacturer names for some guns, but never for others, or maybe sometimes for some. And some things get Carbine or Heavy Machine Gun (etc) in their name, and that's just a description! I'm looking at you, M4A1... Alex T Snow 07:13, 3 October 2011 (CDT)
- I think it mainly just reflects common use. For example, people know who Colt and Heckler & Koch are. On the other hand, adding the incomprehensible company who make the AS Val will just kinda confuse people looking for which bit is the weapon's actual name. Evil Tim 08:23, 3 October 2011 (CDT)
- I actually loled when I found that name :) Alex T Snow 20:36, 3 October 2011 (CDT)
- BTW, TSNIITOCHMASH (It is easier to pronounce when you know Russian :P ) isn't the only manufacturer of AS "Val" (and several other suppressed weapons). There is also TOZ. --Masterius 06:06, 4 October 2011 (CDT)
- Okay, thanks. It seems like a quite a few of the Russian weapons are made by more than one, that's just the one I found first I guess. Alex T Snow 20:57, 4 October 2011 (CDT)
- Yeah, especially when it comes to common designs like Kalashnikovs and Makarovs. --Masterius 02:10, 5 October 2011 (CDT)
- It seems to me Izhmash is the main one, is fair to say? Alex T Snow 02:50, 5 October 2011 (CDT)
- For AK-XXXs that would be yes; for AKS-74U it is TOZ; for RPKs it is VPMZ "Molot".
- Here is nice compilation: http://home.comcast.net/~shooter2_indy/ak74_mag_guide.html
- IZHMASH doesn't make pistols though. IZHMEKH does. --Masterius 02:15, 6 October 2011 (CDT)
