The videogames [and comic books] are called "Aliens versus Predator," ''not'' "Alien vs Predator;" only the ''first'' movie is called that, and the at least in the case of the second game "versus" is spelled out completely in the title. [[User:Vangelis|Vangelis]] 08:15, 22 July 2009 (UTC) | |||

10mm would make it an SMG
I just realize that if this weapon really was supposed to fire, in the story, 10mm rounds, then it isn't really a rifle as it is trying to be called some sort of future assault rifle. It's more like a submachine gun to me. Excalibur01 05:23, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
- 10mmx24mm is the official caliber, according to the technical manual. So, it'd be kinda similar to the VSS in caliber, right?-protoAuthor
Judge Dredd
Was one of the gang types in the opening of Judge Dredd using a pulse rifle?
Both Aliens and Dredd were shot in the UK, where there is pretty much one supplier of firearms to the film and TV industry; they certainly had one live-firing pulse rifle at the time Dredd was produced.
-On second thoughts, no, it's a pump action shotgun. But it's what a shotgun would look like if tha manufacturers of the M-41 made one.
- Oh, now I have to dig out my Aliens: Colonial Marines Technical Manual and find who the makers are in that universe... Armat. That's the company. God I love that book-protoAuthor
