[[Image:XM8.JPG|500px|thumb|none|[[XM8]] - This gun is just way too ugly and unappealing to me. And if the plastic shell of this rifle is known to melt after such intensive fire, causing the rifle to malfunction, you would be screwed in a combat scenario because your weapon would be useless! Seriously, give me an FN SCAR or a H&K 416 over this laughable "battle rifle of the future".]]

[[Image:Oicw.jpg|500px|thumb|none|[[Heckler & Koch XM29 Objective Individual Combat Weapon]] - Ugh... yet ANOTHER ugly and unappealing looking rifle that passes off as the laughable "battle rifle of the future". I am seriously glad that this rifle will NEVER see the light of day, just like the XM8 won't see the light of day either.]]
[[Image:Beretta92F LeftSide.jpg|400px|thumb|none|[[Beretta 92 pistol series]] - What a piece of crap this handgun is. Seriously folks, I don't understand why our boys and girls in uniform are armed with this piece of crap handgun that will break and jam easily in rough combat situations. I've handled both the Inox and M9 versions of this handgun at a gun store once, and the damn things felt like they were made out of cheap metal that would break easily in my hands! Seriously, give me an M1911 over this piece of shit.]]

Political Views: "A well-regulated Milita, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the People to keep and bear firearms shall NOT be infringed."... so that means if and when the day comes that you want to take away my guns, you will have to pry them from my cold, dead fingers first.
Who am I?
Well, well, well... you found my IMFDB user page... I guess to start this description off, my name is Josh, and I hail from the hot and sunny state of California. Yeah, yeah, I know... One of the most pro-liberal states in the union that is the capital of the entertainment industry, wrought with crazy wildfires, shit weather, restrictive gun laws, ridden with anti-gun politicians, sparkling yet trashy beaches, is shamed to have a city that has the largest homeless population in the U.S., and will supposedly fall into the ocean and join Hawaii in 2012...
Ok, now that I got those god-awful jokes out of my system, I guess I will tell you more about myself...
I am your average-joe Southern California resident who happens to be a gun-lover. I first discovered this site in the summer of 2009 when I was searching for what kind of handgun the Joker used in the film The Dark Knight, and after a time of some anonymous editing of a few pages and picture captions, I decided to create an account here on IMFDB for the hell of it. I enjoy this site and I think it has one of the best insights as to what kinds of firearms were used in movies.
I currently do not own any firearms, but I have handled and fired several different firearms throughout most of my life (from simple hunting rifles to modern handguns). I am also an airsofter and I currently own 6 airsoft firearms; a shotgun and 5 pistols, which are described in more details at the bottom of this page from the images that I have uploaded of them.
I also come from a line of family members who have served in the United States Military as Paratroopers, Marines, and Army Medics in some of the most well-known conflicts in human history that the United States has been involved in (Such as World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War), and I am proud of their service and devotion to their duty.
I guess the only things left for me to say is that most of the time, I am a fun-loving guy and I don't mind making new friends or having friendly discussions or debates about guns or movies. I will stick around this site for a bit and help out on the articles that need work where it is needed (But I am sorry to say that I will not be able to provide any screencaps for pages that need fixing or need to be built. I just don't have the necessary program to do this. Sorry). Other than that, feel free to hit me up on any questions or discussions that you guys want to have with me.
Pages that I have worked on/edited
Batman: Gotham Knight - The page looked very good, I commend whoever got the good screenshots from the film, the only thing it was lacking was some picture captions that were relevant to the film, so I took the liberty to add some back when I was an anonymous editor.
The Boondocks - I took the liberty to add some additional captions to the page's images.
Hot Fuzz - I added some picture captions to that page back when I was an anonymous editor. Although they have probably been removed by now if people think I was 'insulting' the actors with my picture captions. Which I wasn't to begin with... oh well...
Friday - The picture captions were kind of half-assed and they did not give a thorough description, especially on two pictures that were about 2 firearms that were shown to appear in the movie. So I took the liberty to fix up the picture captions. And thanks to User:Predator20 for adding in a movie poster!
High School of the Dead - There were a few lacking pictures in the firearms descriptions, and I decided to edit some of the picture captions so that they would be relevant to the images.
Zombies of Mass Destruction - I worked on putting captions for the images on that page. Whoever created the page, I commend you. But could you have done a better job on the screencaps?
Left 4 Dead - Did a few minor edits here and there
Left 4 Dead 2 - Did some minor edits here and there on this page too.
Battle: Los Angeles - Fixed a few sloppy looking areas on the page, and added a notice letting first-time viewers know that all the images on the page are screencaps from the film's first trailer unless otherwise noted.
Zombieland - I took the liberty to fix up the page a little bit.
Atlantis: The Lost Empire - Fixed up some of the images because they misrepresented the order of events that took place in the film, and I fixed a few of the picture captions.
Wow... that is a really tough question to ask me. Hell, this is a tough question to ask of anyone. But if I really had to pick, then I would say that my interests generally gear towards the intellectual, action-packed, post apocalypse, historical and non-historical themed, bloody, sci-fi, monster mashing, cult hits, good story deliveries, and the odd and rare ones.
Again, another really tough question to ask from me. But to simplify this answer, I generally like actors who are not the typical anti-gun extremist liberals like so many other actors in Hollywood are. But that they are cool and relaxed about the usage and ownership of firearms, and don't give a crap about what people think about their beliefs.

Things I generally cannot stand
There is a hell of alot of things that piss me off to no end (Hey, what doesn't piss you off in this life?), but if I really had to pick something that really irks me, it would have to be the politically correct standard of life that we are all living right now, and how the constant battle of gun rights is being overshadowed by the anti-gunning, draconian law-writing Liberals who are constantly stepping on and attempting to completely trample our Second Amendment rights on a daily basis.
