ARCTIC WARFARE

My friend, i have done the job of describing the differences of the Accuracy International Arctic Warfare series check the discussion board of the page. i hope you appreciate my work.-User:SargeOverkill

It is better to block this idiot for an infinite period of time, since just as his blocking period expired he has started making his usual changes, Take for example, he added the pistol and machine pistol category to full-sized SMGs like Spectre M4 and Jatimatic.--SB2296 08:56, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

S&W 4500

I recently combined the smith & wesson 4505, 4506, 4516, and 4566 articles into one. I was told to contact an administrator to see about removing the old individual pages if the change is considered acceptable. -Anonymous

(What I wrote to ANONYMOUS) I just banned an IP address (person did not log in as user Anonymous) for wholesale removal of data from three S&W pages. That is NOT the way to do it. If this is YOU (i.e. Anonymous User), I will lift the ban, but you CREATE the new page first and then cut & paste the old data AND then put a note at the TOP of the old page explaining what you did. Suddenly BLANK Pages by unknown IP addresses usually AUTOMATICALLY put up a big red flag. If that is you, ALWAYS log in before you do stuff like that. Unknown IP address get automatically banned for that. MoviePropMaster2008 18:43, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

The Stand

Why so snarky? The last photo does appear to be some type of folding stock attached to the weapon. And why did you not either send me a message on my page or add to the discussion page for the movie? I don't mind a debate but I'm puzzled by your tone. Have I done something to you lately? I was under the impression that we strove for some type of polite excahnges here. --Jcordell 02:47, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Sure I understand how that goes.We all get tired and sometimes come across in wasy that we didn't intend. Not a problem. I thought I saw a folded stock in the last screecap, but I'll change it to the 89 model.I'm not a big MP5 guy. More into S&W revolvers. Thanks. --Jcordell 16:52, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

I am back again

Hey Matt, Things have been slow so I have to work twice as hard to make ends meet. The Industry has been off as of late but did work on some TV shows. Shop work is slowly coming on line so that will be nice. I like the new things going on with the website looks good. ritwikbmca new templates look great don't know if the rest of the admins had agreed on them as standard. I have been hearing from others in the Industry about the site most good some feel that there are some errors that need to be corrected. I did find out that some film archivist are looking at the site to very weapons and props used in the films which is very cool. A couple have stated we should think about adding studios to the show info so it can be used as a cross reference. I believe that no matter what people believe that IMFDB will be similar to IMDB on the information it has. I have other show that I have screen-capped and hope to post some more this week and go back through others to check them of errors. -Phoenixent

Buying a SIG

I may be looking into getting a SIG P220 (45acp). At the gun shop where I bought a S&W 4505 (same as your 4506 but blued, carbon steel). After the 3 day waiting period is up on the 4505, I'm going to take my Desert Eagle up there and see what they'll give me for it. The SIG in question is a two tone model, nickel side, black frame. It had a better grip than the 4505 but it was $50 more (listed at $600) and wasn't as clean as the 4505. Are the pre '96 stamped slide models the best to get and is there anything else I should look for? Is there anything else negative about the post '96 models other than the slide weight? --Predator20 19:23, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the response, very informative. No problem with it being long either. Cleared up a lot of questions. I'm pretty sure it had the older style plastic grips. I don't think it had nickel controls either just the slide. I'll bring the date list with me and check. I didn't really give it a good look over. I just saw that was as clean as the 4505. I went into the gun shop just to see what they had, didn't plan on buying anything. I saw that 4505, you don't ever see them just the 4506 models. That had some P226's too, didn't really look at them. I already have a few nines and was wanting to get some .45's. If the Desert Eagle was a .44 I would keep it, my S&W 586 takes care of my .357 needs. If the SIG isn't up to par I get something else and look into getting one later. Thanks for the help. Also I considered trying to buy your 4506, but since it's a pain for you to ship out of state, I went local. --Predator20 20:34, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

No SIG for me. Gun shop wanted to give me $500 for the Desert Eagle. I didn't handle the SIG again. But I was wrong about the grips. Had the newer style. I'll get a SIG later. I'm very pleased with the 4505. I just wish the grip had a little swell on the sides to keep it from being so flat. I'll post some pics on the forum later. --Predator20 23:32, 9 February 2010 (UTC)

User 67.183.66.44

He's back. I've had to fix almost a dozen pages on which he did edits. For one thing, he adds custom gun pics to the main gun pages, and then he doesn't even format it correctly. WTF? MoviePropMaster2008 18:10, 22 February 2010 (UTC)

Seecamp LWS-32

I replaced the image of the Seecamp from Weapon Specialists LTD with one from my own inventory. At least it's one of our own copyrighted images. Hope you like it. :) MoviePropMaster2008 07:56, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

User 67.183.66.44

I just had to to block him AGAIN for one month. I'm tempted to permanently ban him. Literally the MOMENT that his ban expired, he started making TONS of changes, most of which were stupid and required fixing. Thoughts? Should this guy get a longer ban?

RE: Afghan Breakdown

In regards to your question I'm afraid there hasn't been a version of Afghan Breakdown released with English subtitles, officially or otherwise. I tried looking for them when I originally watched the movie and found that the torrented version was Italian-dubbed while the only available subtitles were Polish. --Markit 02:32, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

So are you happy now?

I'll get one of the Canuck Flat top soon.... ;)

There's no pleasing you ;)

So are all the Canadian shows have the Oly grip on them? Are you sure? If they have the A2 style pistol grip, then it's essentially the same rifle. Also the 715 is not mine so I won't be getting that back to photograph any time soon. MoviePropMaster2008 19:29, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

What about Stargate and other shows?

There are TONS of TV shows filmed in Canada and I'm not sure that they use the Oly grip. I 'think' Seven days had the A2 grip and SG1 had the A2 grip sometimes. Let me know if ALL of the Canadian shows have the Oly grip, but I am sure I've seen other lowers on the guns in the past. I will try to get the rifle upper back and film it on an Oly lower. YOU KNOW I'm the ONLY IMFDB member who bothers to do that! ;) MoviePropMaster2008 19:57, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Deleting Frankengun pics

I just deleted another one of my pics 'modified' by a member. I don't mind placeholders but the noobs don't give accreditation so I delete them as soon as I see them. People doing 'frankengun' chop jobs DE-motivates me to go out and photograph the real guns, and we don't want THAT to happen. :) I mean why bother trying to track down the real guns from HEAT if some guy is going to PS Franken gun another gun? If it looks decent enough the reason and motivation for me to take the time (and irritate my fellow armorers) becomes less and less compelling. Thoughts? MoviePropMaster2008 19:57, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

C7 stuff

I was going to overwrite your old C7 shot with this new image, but then I realized that the naming nomenclature would be wrong and give the wrong impression (i.e. naming the file c7 when the rifle is a 715). I am looking forward to fixing the UGLY pics of the Diemaco section of the M16 page soon. Just a thought regarding a movie page, I don't think the rifles in Operation Dumbo Drop are 715s. Those 715 uppers were really prevalent in the 1990s when the supply of original M16A1 uppers dried up and everyone stopped making them and went to the A2 uppers. A lot of guys who wanted the M16A1 look but didn't have an A1 gun were buying what we all called 'The Canadian A1 upper' to build up their guns. So it's a regular franken gun with a straight ring and light barrel that happens to have a 715 upper receiver. It's the real life franken guns that trips us up. AR parts from so many manufacturers are so prevalent that we can be seeing Bushmaster or DPMS or Eagle Arms (now defunct) or Pac West guns all over the place. I remember that Colt was NOT selling their lower receivers (assholes) before the first Clinton ban, but everyone else was. I bought over 30 Pac West receivers and built them up into AR15 variants before the first AW ban. They were about $55.00 (and then jumped up to $400 just before the ban.). Just a note. MoviePropMaster2008 20:32, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Colt cowards

They were one of the first ones to CAVE when the gun control fanatics started their jihad against gun owners, starting with the Stockton shooting in Feb 1989 all the way to the passage of the Clinton AW ban in 1994. Colt SOLD complete emasculated rifles with no bayonet lug and renamed receivers. Colt refused to sell lower receivers upon which to build custom guns. But that's what armorers wanted. We swap out uppers all the time. So unless the armory (like Stembridge, and later CW who picked up a lot of their stuff) bought all their guns in the 1970s and 1980s, from Colt, the most prevalent build up guns would be by other manufacturers. IN the early 1990s Colt rifles were more expensive than many competitors and also harder to find. Colt, IMHO, is the American H&K ;) MoviePropMaster2008 21:04, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

715 photo

Just talked to the owner about getting the barreled upper for a shoot. He will be available in about 2 weeks. Also I discovered during our conversation. ((I didn't look that closely at the gun because it was a really quick shoot that I had to do in about 3 minutes! Someone put the gun against the white background and I lit it and click off about a dozen shots from that angle only and off it went))... that it was a full Colt 715 kit but mounted on a pre-1989 Bushmaster XM15-A2 lower that was legally converted to full auto fire from a civilian receiver (i.e. a post 86 sample). There are small 'marking' differences, i.e. the full auto setting word was stamped on LATER. Does that make a difference? Or should I reshoot the entire gun with a Colt lower receiver? MoviePropMaster2008 22:51, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

Got an easy fix for the 715

The Factory Colt 715 has no select fire markings on the right side of the gun. I can just 'clone' out the markings, though I don't like to do that, (I use Photoshop just to remove SNs if needed, scratches, cracks, oil stains, weird reflections, etc. I try not to fundamentally change the look of the gun, just to 'clean it up'). But I can clone out the Bushmaster Selector markings and keep it blank. Thus for all intents and purposes, it looks like a Colt 715 lower from that side. MoviePropMaster2008 22:05, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

(EDIT) Done. I also cloned out a big fat THUMBPRINT that I left on the upper (oops!) hahahahaha. Don't want to pollute IMFDB's pics with that kinda stuff! :) MoviePropMaster2008 23:10, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

SIG P228

You know, I've been itching to replace that 228 with a better pic. That gun was dropped and in the middle of repair when I snapped a pic of it. The frame was scratched really bad (from a car stunt) and was repainted with black spray paint. It was NOT the best example to use. Should we let Joker keep his P228 pic until I can get a better screen used P228 sample? At the least, it will be a reminder for me to get a new P228 pic. Thoughts? MoviePropMaster2008 21:28, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

I opt to keep the beater P228 pic for now. It IS a screen used gun, but nothing big or eventful, mostly B-movies and I can't figure out where it was rented to. I will try to get a screen used P228 from a BIG MOVIE from CW hopefully soon. I will be out of town for a WW2 documentary shoot for NATGEO in the South Pacific again (I leave on wed), so I will not be able to screencap or take pics (only some blank firing Pistols of which IMFDB already has the pics for and a BUNCH of rubber Arisakas and garands for some reenactments for the documentary film crew). I will be back 1st week of April. I will be on here on IMFDB, though via wi fi from the lap top from the hotel. If we get rained out, you'll be seeing me here on IMFDB! hahahaha. best regards MoviePropMaster2008 22:38, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

Desert Eagle

Great work on the page. :) Let me know what you need help on. I think my brother has Lucky Number Slevin. So I'll check and see if the model can be determined. --Predator20 20:52, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I could give two shits about the video game junk too. Most of them will probably Mark XIX. The grid pattern isn't necessary unless it's a long list. But anyway I'll help what I can. Also that custom Eagle you just uploaded is a USA built one. --Predator20 21:06, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Yeah that's what I would do, let the hardcore gamers sort that crap out if they care so much.(Very few would be Mark VII) Also even though there wouldn't be any blank converted Eagles in the .440 Cor-Bon caliber I added it to the specifications to be more accurate.--Predator20 21:27, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure the .440 version didn't have the flutes. Also I'm throwing a wrench here. But I think the early Mark XIX models at least in the .44 Magnum may not have had fluted barrels. --Predator20 21:58, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Here we can see the .44 stamp on the other Russian's Desert Eagle Mark XIX. His has a chrome barrel and frame with a black slide.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Why do they prefer the .50 AE? Does it cycle better than the .357 and .44 because you can get a heavier powder charge? Or I'm wondering if the .50 isn't rimmed like the .357 and .44 makes it easier. All this talk about Eagles makes me what to go shoot mine.--Predator20 22:28, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

I helped identify Desert Eagles appearing in animes and a few video games. Even after this a lot of video games are left, some of which cannot be identified since either those pages have no screencaps to identify the model or the Desert Eagles appearing in them have components of Mark I,VII,XIX mixed together!. I also deleted some video games, films, anime and television series appearing in the page which appeared in red.--SB2296 06:21, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

Blanks

It took them a while to get .45 1911's to cycle blanks also. It seems like it would be tough to get a DE to cycle reliable with blanks. Don't know if you handled one and racked the slide. (Fucking heavy). I almost smacked myself in the face after shooting mine and then switching to a Hi-power. --Predator20 23:01, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

I'll have to search the forum and read your Desert Eagle story. The .357 is the biggest handgun caliber I have shot. I don't go shooting with anyone else besides my dad, so I don't get to shoot anyone else guns. I'd like to shoot a .50 just for the experience. You can't trust internet gun users about gun recoil.--Predator20 23:39, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

No it's fine like it is, thanks though. They can click on the image and see who it belongs to. --Predator20 02:34, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Also I think I'm going to have a problem with a user on the Death Sentence page. He made some okay edits. But he took one of my images off the page and wrote he used different gun and renamed some of the image files so they ended not showing up. (I hope I didn't confuse you) --Predator20 02:34, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

RE: Desert Eagle

I'll be adding the template to the page. Can you help me with it?--SB2296 07:07, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Oh alright, I'll leave it to you. One less thing on my to do list. I'll go work on Ninja Assassin. Excalibur01

From Dusk Till Dawn

Thanks. The page wasn't really missing any screencaps, but was lacking in good ones. Also I borrowed Lucky # Slevin, so I'll check out the DE used. I think the page is incomplete so I may end up capping it. Plan on adding some caps of the missing revolvers in The Killer too.--Predator20 00:05, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Mods & Stuff

yeah, he was writing snarky sarcastic stuff. Sounds just like a kid. Personally I think some of our newer (foreign) members are 'young' based on their actions (and preferences). For one, I don't like spending time arguing why we should NOT have a section on suction cup arrows LOL! We always get some noob waltz in and start challenging the rules of IMFDB (Gee, why don't you guys start doing THIS instead?) Thankfully I've seen some of our experienced (and even some newer members who 'get it') step in and intervene. It's gratifying to see that we have members who follow the rules and enforce that amongst other members. :) the shoot was a mixed bag. It was really windy and stormy in the South pacific. Even though there was no rain, the wind gusts knocked me down several times. I'm only here for a few days. I leave for Rome for a shoot and then for a gig in Hong Kong. No I don't take any weapons with me ;) I only act in a paid advisory capacity. But depending on whether I can get internet access from wherever I'm at in the world, I may not be around for April-early May. We'll see. Sometimes the shoot days are so long, that I just crash at the end of the day. Anyway, I felt like I was the lone mod sometimes (but again, we have quite a few experienced standard members who are doing a good job of reigning in some of the wacky changes made by 'drive by members'. :) MoviePropMaster2008 03:39, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Re: Model 733

Thank you for clarifying this for me. While we're on the subject of the M16 series, would you mind if I went ahead and phased out the older Model 715 picture and deleted it in favor of MPM's pic? It's rather redundant to have two pictures of the same weapon, especially when one is significantly higher-quality than the other. Orca1 9904 19:44, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

The Killer

The replica HPs must have been used by the triads. There is one good view of a HP. It appears to be a Inglis, judging from the front sight and finger notch on slide. They were imported into China during WWII. Interestingly they put an A1 style birdcage flash hider on the Norinco 56. Any of the trivia stuff you learned please add to the page.--Predator20 02:24, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

This is during the gun buy.

Yeah I think that modified revolver may be a Taurus also. Since most of the fired revolvers are Taurus. There are some really good close ups of some of the guns. Makes iding them easy.Other than some text and one or two images that need to be uploaded over. I'm through with it.--Predator20 02:56, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

Disambiguation page

I have created some disambiguation pages,eg, M3 and Delta Force to improve page navigation in IMFDB. Considering the latter I used to hate when I typed to search the video game Delta Force when the site redirected me to the movie page Delta Force with the same name. So I am currently in the process of making disambiguation pages for pages with similar titles to make navigating pages easy. Ben41 asked me recieve the sysop's consent before undertaking this project.--SB2296 14:29, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

I think we should keep the pictures in the disambiguation page atleast for the guns.--SB2296 06:23, 9 April 2010 (UTC)

General Information

Shouldn't IMFDB Info - The History of M16s in Film and Television be added to GE? It's locked so reg users can't edit it.--Predator20 04:56, 11 April 2010 (UTC)

Another thing, the purpose of the General Information category was so a glossary of firearm terms could be made up. Nobody has created one. Should it just be called Glossary or Glossary - Firearm Terms? I figure a section for gun types, action, malfunction. I'm not sure what else. --Predator20 22:17, 13 April 2010 (UTC)

I added it to general information category. MPM didn't want anyone else messing with that page is the reason why it was protected. Probably best to change it back to that.--Predator20 00:57, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

What about a page for all gun related abbreviations.--SB2296 06:50, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

Beretta

Sure. I can do that. By the way I have no idea what type of M16/AR15 they are using in Jesse Stone: Death in Paradise. Whne I was in the Army we had the M16A1, M16A2 and the M4 carbine. Truth be told I've stopped trying to follow all the different variations. So I will leave it to you or somebody else to figure out. Thanks. --Jcordell 02:20, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

Thanks on the M4 info. I'll get that added. As you've probably gathered over the past few months my strength is in revolvers and the older firearms. The new stuff I can identify, but all the variants leave me cold. I think I stopped paying attention around 1995. --Jcordell 02:29, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for capping this as well. I was planning to cap it myself, but the help is again appreciated. One minor note though; the name of the M1126 APC is spelled 'Stryker', like the name, not with an I. Orca1 9904 00:09, 19 May 2010 (UTC)

Are you psychic? Part deax

Again within SECONDS of me uploading a hero gun pic, you comment. Your Jedi Mind powers are starting to freak me out. I just flew back into the US this morning and I'm trying to adjust to the time zone change again. I'm also trying to fix the WWS page since I never liked the overdoing of the screencaps on that page. It held the record at one time, 36 shots of the same gun in one section. Ben41 and I am working on it since it is one of the most viewed pages on IMFDB. MoviePropMaster2008 02:05, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

AKs and Canucks

Those AKs built for We Were Soldiers were built in 2002, so they could not have been in anything prior to that. They were built because the filmmakers, upon learning what we all know about Type 56s, etc. opted to have tons of real milled receiver guns built for the film's authenticity. The last time I saw them, they were the same color (i.e. wood furniture) so they're pretty easy to spot. As for replacing the real AK-47 pic, I'm trying to get a pic of a real example from an Army Museum, so that we have a real Soviet one for all those film entries that were done overseas over the years. I hate those jacked Type 1-3 examples, for one they don't represent what was actually a production model and they're also readily recognizable jacked images. But since the WWS AKs had that weird wood, I wouldn't replace the other pics just yet.

BTW, I finally learned why Canadian movies and TV shows have so many Olympic Arms AR rifles ....AND?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! mpm

Heat

Thanks for the correction. I didn't realize I had put the Colt under the subgun category. I'm just going in and organizing some of the pages. I want to point out that I'm not changing any of the text or screencaps. But Heat and Ronin are some of our most viewed pages and they had different types of firearms scattered all over the page, Guess I'm just anal. --Jcordell 21:38, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Now that I have some good pics of the gun, I have some chopped Type 56 barrels lying around here. I can put a post ban Type 56 front sight and an American Krinkov Muzzle brake on it. I have a messed up AK receiver that I do parts work on. Think I should build it? Don't know what to call it since it IS a 100% gunshop custom frankengun. Do you think calling it a Fake East German MPi-AKS-74NK is appropriate? I just thought it was the closest production AK variant to that monstrosity :) MoviePropMaster2008 01:59, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

HK21

I think HK21 needs its own page since it has three-four variants of its own (HK11,HK23,HK13,GR9). What do you think?--SB2296 07:25, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

BTW we should create a set of rules stating whether a gun should demand its own page or be redirected to another page for a gun from which the former gun was derived. Earlier there were many controversies regarding these redirects (though the FPK/PSL thing was my fault, it was actually a AK style receiver on close inspection) and these set of rules will define the place where a gun actually belongs to. For example, like the HK21 the PSG-1 is a modified G3 and happens to be in the G3 page, but it has a sub variant of its own (the MSG-90) and I believe it should have its own , separate page. And by doing this, pages like the AK-47, M16 and G3 will be brief in size too.--SB2296 07:48, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

New Weapons Infobox Template

I just created a ‎new weapons infobox template. Its just a modified version of the previous templates put together (since I don't know how to create one from scratch). It is only in the prototype stage and I will request help from other members, who know more about creating these templates.What do you think about the template? Should there be any new features?--SB2296 09:21, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Carbines, Repeating Rifles

I'm getting confused with repeating rifles and carbines and I am having trouble sorting out repeating rifles and carbines in Lois & Clark. Here's some questions I have:

1. Should carbines and lever-action repeating rifles go in the rifle section?
2. Are semi-auto carbines like the Ruger Mini-14 considered as rifles or assault rifles?
3. Are carbines the same as rifles?

I hope I'll be able to sort them out once I find out about carbines and lever-action repeating rifles. - Kenny99 22:49, 1 June 2010 (UTC)

Real-Time Strategy Computer Games Allowed?

I was wondering if strategy games are allowed. There are some that have real weapons (such as Company of Heroes, which I'll try to do) and players can just zoom in to get good shots of the guns. - Kenny99 00:08, 5 June 2010 (UTC)

Re: Lethal Weapon S&W

I was looking at the Lethal Weapon 2 page not long ago and saw that the S&W was changed from a 5906 to a 659. I don't remember where I saw it (one of the discussion pages I think) but someone had wrote that the 5906 in Lethal Weapon 2 couldn't be possible at that time period so it had to be a 659. And then, seeing as Murtaugh used what I think was the same gun in Lethal Weapon 3, that's why I thought it was a 659. But seeing as you've just provided better evidence, I'll change it back lol. My mistake. -Gunman69 18:08, 6 June 2010 (UTC)

SIG cont.

I checked that SIG out at the gun shop again. They had dropped the price from $600 to $570. But after looking over it better, all over the nickel slide, tiny spots of the finish are missing. Pretty poor gun. They have an all black one a little cheaper but it wasn't much better.

I found one on gun broker I really like for $575. Here is the description "Sig P220, West German Manuf. This Sig has been refinished by, CCR / Cummings Custom Refinish. There are no issues and was in Excellent Condition prior to Refinish as it is now, low round count and all Orginal factory parts."

It's technically reverse two-tone by SIG standards, but norm for others. It's a $160 for the refinish job, not to mention shipping. --Predator20 18:38, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

I've bought a few older guns off GB and I haven't had any problems. (knock on wood) Generally if the gun was really beat up prior to refinishing, it would still show. Also the grips should actually be the checkered style right? --Predator20 15:00, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

The all black P220 at the gun shop had Hogue finger groove grips, they were much too big for me. The two-tone had the pebble grain and it felt just right. The non finger groove Hogue's may be okay. A few hours before the two-tone SIG above goes out, there's an all black West German one with factory box, papers and two mags. It's in very good condition. It's at $350 right now, I may try to get it, depends on how crazy the bidding gets. --Predator20 01:23, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

Error creating thumbnail: File missing

Well it looks like I'll be the two-tone SIG owner. I got into a bidding war with the black one above. Bowed out at $475 (it was back and forth). I figure the extra $100 on the two-tone would be worth it. Even if it didn't come with extra mag and box.--Predator20 22:33, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

No prob on getting back to me. I like the two-tone much much better too. But I figured if I could have saved a 100 bucks or more, it would have been nice. But after getting outbid the last time on the black one, I was relieved --Predator20 23:26, 21 June 2010 (UTC)

22 AKs

Nope there were a bunch, the ones imported by Mitchell Arms, I think, were the Armscorp ones made in the Philippines, and they looked like crap. Or the Italian Armi-Jager ones, also imported. Regardless, only the .22LR guns had that style of forearm. As for the Hudsons, I would demand proof of your assertion. I have every Hudson imported from the late 1970s on. They all look the same and they don't look anything like that. :) MoviePropMaster2008 17:19, 5 July 2010 (UTC) (BTW, I'm typing this with no sleep so if I sound insane, forget it) You know what? I think they're the .22 style AKs with other types of mags jammed in.

Limited Time offer

To only the most TRUSTED IMFDB fellow mods! ;) lOL. If you have a 'wish list' for pics you think the site needs desperately, shoot me a list. I've been busy, but I got a STACK of guns that I haven't photographed yet, including a WASR-3 that looks EXACTLY like Sascha Robey's gun, and a BUNCH of just general replacement pics. But I was thinking you might have a list that you really wanted. this is a limited time offer! :D The only problem with getting some of the BIG armory guns is that the guys really don't like it when I bother them to snap pics when they're neck deep in a big movie production. Gotta tread lightly there. :) On the photo front, I've 'fixed and cleaned up' some guns (and those are the ones I don't put the copyright disclaimer on so you know that I'm just cleaning up jacked images).

Transformers 3

Okay. I was SNOOKERED. Apparently this member LIAM who is moviemaster1993 is a fanboy who created the facebook page himself, even though the page says the "OFFICIAL" transformers 3 facebook page, thus falsely implying that it is sanctioned by the studio. NOT being a sanctioned facebook page, immediately makes it suspect in my eyes and I vote for deletion. These behind the scenes photos were NOT released by the studio. They were personally taken by people on set and 'leaked'. The only reason why I did not ban it immediately was because I thought it was an officially facebook sanctioned page. It is not. We can get into serious trouble if studio lawyers all of a sudden get pissed at IMFDB and start sending us 'cease and desist' letters to 'remove' all of our screencaps. That would spell the END Of IMFDB. All because of one fanboy idiot. But I wonder what you think about the matter "No Harm done?" or "delete" ? MoviePropMaster2008 05:05, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Image name syntax

I think we should better make it mandatory for all the names of the screenshot images being uploaded to IMFDB to have a proper syntax, bearing both the movie/television series/game's name and the guns name. Just check out today's recent changes you will a couple of images bearing names such as 'Blaser R93','UMP' and 'G36C', but in fact they are screenshots. I believe that a proper syntax will group common screenshots together and will not club with a gun image bearing the same name.--SB2296 16:21, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, we should make it a rule and display it in bold letters in the upload file page as well.--SB2296 15:22, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

Type 56

I was reading the list of your weapons and noticed you mentioned your Type 56 was "Pre-Ban". Just out of curiosity, are you reffering to the ban on imported Chinese weapons or the ban on automatic weapons? At first I assumed the former but then I realized I've never seen a semi-automatic only Type 56 (not that I have anywhere near enough experience for that to indicate they don't exist). -Anonymous

Reply

Thanks for the clarification. I thought you were talking about the import ban but wasn't sure. In addition to the assult weapons import ban I think there was another ban that prevents any weapons, including sporting arms like the Norinco coppy of the Winchester 1887, from being imported from China. I would have to double check that information though. -Anonymous

I don't mind an intelligent discussion, but the problem with it being on the wiki instead of the forums. Some users don't sign their post so you have no idea who's saying what, unless you check the history. Another user change someone else's post wayy too easily. With the forum you can reply with quote so you know which comment was directed to whom. We have much more control on the forums when it comes to discussions, which is its main purpose.--Predator20 13:26, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Regarding a Mod's removal of a trivia section

I have contested Orca's removal of the Canadian dogtags trivia from the X2: X-Men United page citing the rules standards and principles and here is a direct quote from the Rules, Standards and Principles page:

Trivia related Images: Exceptions are trivia shots, but Trivia sections should be kept to a minimum and should be of general interest to movie buffs and not just re-iterate information that is on the DVD commentary. Acceptable trivia can mention military aircraft, vehicles and equipment in a film or television show or generally unknown information about a show or video game that is weapons related in nature, however small amounts of general trivia that is related to the scene is acceptable.

Orca removed it because it is "Not Gun Related" even though the rules allow for small bits of trivia esp. if they are military related. I am forwarding this you because I have messaged Orca, and he has yet to respond even though I messaged him a couple days ago.

Don't know what to think of it. --Predator20 14:24, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Did you see this?

[3]

Ben sent this to MPM, it's quite an extensive list. Not all of it seems like it would be correct like a Desert Eagle is listed as being used in Predator (which they did), but also The Deer Hunter. It wasn't even around yet. But in some, it could be useful, like it says a Glock 21 was used in Eraser instead of G17 that we have listed. It also had the shotgun he used but the folding stock is gone. --Predator20 03:18, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Another thing I didn't get, both the DE's shown had 14" barrels, I've never seen one used in a film. (Always the standard 6", would be cool if they did.) In Predator and Extreme Prejudice they both had DE's but neither showed them with those barrels. I guess the frames and slides were used in the film but the barrels changed out. Also the G21 in Eraser has the dummy suppressor used so that's probably correct. I scanned through most of it, I would guess 80% to 90% is probably correct. --Predator20 05:32, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

hmmm.. I haven't seen Eraser in a while. Was the scene of him loading the gun an insert shot? That may have been the reason for the different Glocks, but they all look alike to me anyway :). I stopped in my local gun shop yesterday and handled a Gen2 G21 and Springfield XDM .45. The XDM while it felt slide heavy it had so much better of a grip than the Glock. I'm not sure if the SF version and Gen4 would be much of an improvement. I hate to even stop in there, there is always something I want to get. They have S&W 1911 Commander I really really want. Thinking about trading in the DE and Para to get it, I'm tired of those guns. --Predator20 17:35, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

M1911A1 disclaimer

I'm thinking about adding this to the M1911A1 section. LMK what you think. I'm not really satisfied with the wording.

Note many in the list below could actually be Colt Mark IV Series 70/80 Government Models, Springfield Armory, or another manufacturer. Instead of a former military issued M1911A1, unless its a war film. Since the markings of the gun aren't always clear, M1911A1 is a catch-all term. Being most 1911 manufacturers pistols are based off the M1911A1 platform.

--Predator20 22:46, 2 December 2010 (UTC)

Usually we can spot the Model B. but they could slip by. The Mark IV Series 70 in 9mm while it was available they aren't all that common, I very rarely see them come up for sale. (maybe the armories bought them all). Also while it's hard to do because of the breech face, a .45 can be converted to 9mm. Maybe with a blank conversion it's very common. Because they are doing all kinds of filing down and such. This is from the Cobra talk page. "I would say that it's one of Stembridge 9mm conversions of a Colt Series 70 Cold Cup. I have seen some of there barrels in the junk bin as they converted 45 to 9mm. I will check it out tomorrow the 18th and get back to you.- Phoenixent" A lot of them being chambered or converted to 9mm sounds like good mention. But when did actual .45 1911's become reliable with blanks? --Predator20 04:33, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

I remember MPM saying they often borrow from each other, so certain rare variants may come from specific armories. Looking at the Stembridge auction list, in Magnum P.I. and Blues Brothers they used 9mm Series 70, while a lot of Seagal films had .45 Series 70. So I guess it wasn't until the mid to late 80s .45s were reliable enough to be used. In the auction list there was also several Series 80 9mm that weren't converted to blanks (I guess future conversions). I'm going to ask Phoenixent what was the most common 1911 model in Stembridge's inventory. --Predator20 22:25, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

Steve gave me a bunch of useful info. I'm going to use that disclaimer as I have it written, then expand on it later with the 9mm stuff. --Predator20 20:48, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Should we just use the summary Steve made? Maybe take out just the info the regarding Stembridge's inventory. Somethings could be reworded but we would have to ask to Steve if that's okay with him. --Predator20 02:03, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

The only thing I reworded was the 45 to 9mm conversion and took out the info about Stembridge. --Predator20 02:20, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

In early gangster films Colt 1911's were not converted to blanks but were still live fire weapons. This was before live rounds were prohibited on film sets. The 1911's and 1911a1 are a delayed blow back weapon and were more difficult to convert than the straight blow back pistol like the Colt 1903 Pocket Hammerless. The .45 ACP blanks were made from a cut down .30-06 cartridge and were mainly used in the Colt Thompson Submachine Guns but the 1911 had some issues due to the hard rifle primers. So most 1911 and 1911A1's used in films prior to 1950 fired only one shot since they were not converted to blanks or a mock up 1911 that has a small revolver inside an aluminum shroud to stand in for a 1911 when firing multiple rounds. About 1950 the Star Model B was brought in to the US for sale and several studios and armories purchased these since 9mm blanks worked and a conversion on a delayed blow back weapon was developed. From 1950 through the mid 80's the Star Model B, Colt 9mm and Colt .38 Supers with a 9mm barrel were used. Around 1985 a new .45 blank cartridge was developed that used a large pistol primer allowing the armories to activate their 1911's to fire reliably. Conversions from .45 to 9mm were tried prior to this but had problems due to the larger breach face in the 45 slide compared to the 9mm slide. The rentals of 9mm 1911 pistol have slowed down since the .45 came on line but they still go out on shows when a Propmaster wants to limit the amount of different blanks on set.

Alright check the rewording. --Predator20 04:48, 7 December 2010 (UTC)

I don't understand

I apologize if I offended you, but I've seen MANY pages that have witty remarks on them, and saying "Rulers are SO 1950's" I don't consider offensive. I have written comments like this before, and no one ever cared. Again, I'm sorry, but I'd appreciate an explaination of why it was "Vandalism". --Glock172 05:19, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

Golden closet credit for Scarface shotgun

Curious as to why we credited them when we really don't have any of their stuff on the page (i.e. the photos of the Zebala shotgun). Those are all mine. I thought we credited them and made links for them when we used their photos. MoviePropMaster2008 19:31, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Sorry about the stupid anon, IMFDB tends to log me out mysteriously when I'm typing. You were right to assume that since no other person would claim that the photos on the page were theirs.MoviePropMaster2008 19:31, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

Are you going to answer my question or not? There is a notation about the shotgun "This exact weapon was also rented to film and television productions prior to and after the release of Scarface." but no other information is offered. GC's website doesn't list any other credits. Also the tribute to GC is listed twice. Once on the paragraph and again on my photograph. This portrays the erroneous impression that they provided the photograph. I am removing this section (blurb on the photo). Also the impression is that they are the only ones to document the screen usage of the gun, which again is untrue. we can list a link to their auction, but they really did nothing other than offer additional documentation on the weapons we already had on the page. MoviePropMaster2008 07:34, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Tricky wording

Well you don't want to overpander to GC. The wording sounds like you're giving them credit for my work which as you know, can cause problems. I intend to do some editing of those sections which are overtly offensive if it's alright with you. MPM

Category:Movie

I added the a to z function to it, but it's not centered, any ideas?--Predator20 16:44, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Also it works for all pages not just movies. I'm not sure how to create a new one that works for films only.--Predator20 16:49, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

The Movies Guns Actors etc is okay, but the alpha list isn't for some reason. Maybe it's the computer? I took the a to z list from the main page which is centered for me. I don't know, I'm not worried about it too much, an anonymous user wanted the list there. Also have you talked to Chris about all the spammers on the forum?--Predator20 17:18, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

I logged out and it's fine! Do you see the advertisements when you're logged in? I don't, I thought I was missing out when y'all when talking about them and I didn't see them.--Predator20 17:23, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

Yep that's what I was talking about and you do see the ads. Go to your preferences (beside your talk page) and change the skin to modern. Instead of your stuff being on the left it will be on the right, might take out the ads too. I never see any ads when I'm logged in. --Predator20 17:29, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

I messed up I meant to say your user page, talk etc instead of being on the right it will be on the left. (Typing and thinking at the same time is hard for me) Even though you don't have the IMFDB logo. I have used the modern skin for the longest time. --Predator20 17:40, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

AK buying

It will be a few months away, but figured I would go ahead and nag ya. (I just bought two Korean 75 round drums that were one sale for $50 apiece from AIM, so I have got to get one to make the drums worthwhile) You said the Chinese Poly Techs are great and I think it was the Hungarian's too? Used or new doesn't really matter. I didn't want to spend more than $800. But if the right one came along I could see spending a little more. This one on gunbroker looked great, http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=205633083 What about the Norinco's? Besides the Arsenal Saiga are there any in current production worth looking at? --Predator20 17:29, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

cont... Alright I did a bit of searching on prices. Whoever listed that Polytech Legend for a 1k, fucked up. Most list at 2k or close to it. In the book of gun values they list the standard Poly's at $1300 (100% condition), the Legend at $1900. I don't really care whether it's milled or stamped, but fuck that was a good deal.--Predator20 22:55, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

No that wasn't me sadly. I was searching completed auctions and that one came up, it sold at the beginning of Dec. I have gotten a few good deals, but I'm never that lucky. My username on GB is Predator20 also. Yours is a Legend but has the the stamped receiver? I'm just reading from the Gun Values book it says the Poly Tech AKS is the semi-auto version of the Chinese AKM (Type 56), while the Legend is the semi-auto version of the original AK-47 which I thought meant milled only.

Yes it's amazing what banning a firearm can do to prices, the PT's last MSR was $400 and $550, but that was 20 years ago. All the current PT prices on gunbroker seem out of line, of course that's because of that one above. It will a few months before I'm able to get one. Unless that super great deal comes along. Even though there are plenty of cheap ones around, I'd rather spend the few extra dollars and get better quality. --Predator20 02:32, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

AKMS vs Norinco

How many times are you going to change that page back? :) That slant muzzle brake throws people off, if I was you I'd tell Ben. --Predator20 04:45, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

I have corrected him a few times on 1911s, particularly the Low Down Dirty Shame page. AKs are your bag. As much work as he does he deserves a little slack.

Also even though I heard good things about the Russian Arsenal AKs, a guy on youtube did a video on one, he couldn't swap parts from his WASR and other AK onto it. So Arsenal made them so you would have to buy their parts, forget all that.--Predator20 22:38, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Norinco Type 56 section

Should we add a note saying the Type 56 was originally manufactured with a milled receiver, since we don't have a pic of one? A lot of the Vietnam films with Norinco's generally have the milled. Platoon, Uncommon Valor, Good Morning Vietnam.

A VC Guerrilla trains his AK-47 on 'Doc' Jordan (Austin Farwell), giving us a good look at the muzzle and forward stock that confirms it as an AK, rather then the Chinese variant, the Norinco Type 56.

Isn't that a Type 56 above? the front sight looks hooded.--Predator20 17:05, 3 March 2011 (UTC)

Hatsan Escort Guard Shotgun (standard finish) - 16 gauge (Brown Synthetic Stock)

This one has an extended tube, but it looks to be one piece (like they way Ithaca's are). 870s with tube extensions are always two piece, at least that's the way they are on the 12 gauge models. This doesn't look like a 12 gauge so that could be it.

edit I think it could be a Hatsan, not sure if the earlier models had an unsupported tube. --Predator20 08:16, 9 March 2011 (MSK)

Forum topic

I'm waiting for approval to post on the forums, and I don't think Burt has quite explained what he's doing: he opposes the use of the term "RPG" to describe anything but RPG-X weapons, because he thinks you should only read it as the Russian meaning rather than the more common "rocket propelled grenade" (which I'm fairly sure the US Army would have some issues with, since they call projectiles and launchers RPGs all the time). He's therefore removing all references to the Type 69 or its projectiles being RPGs, which isn't correct. While you might not always say "Norinco type 56 assault rifle" you wouldn't remove the words "assault rifle" from a caption because it was wrong. Evil Tim 22:41, 13 April 2011 (CDT)

Further to that, here's something fun: PersonOfInterest's last activity is 26th August 2010. He made a new account and came back (and got banned again) just under a month later on September 28th. Burt's first edit is a month and four days later and he's soon back to editing Goldeneye and the N64 The World Is Not Enough, which were POI's weird little obsessions; he also remembers me as a "troublemaker;" PersonOfInterest was fond of calling me that. PersonOfInterest uploaded exactly 9 files in his whole time here, none of then screenshots; so far, Burt has uploaded absolutely nothing to the site since last November. He also has that POI quirk of often taking two tries to sign talk page edits, if he bothers to sign them at all (look for places where he edits a talk page twice in a row, including his first two edits). Interesting, huh? Another little thing: the user who posted the top comment was PersonOfInterest. How come "both" of them think this is the right way to say things on a talk page? Evil Tim 08:49, 15 April 2011 (CDT)

- Nope, I still get the "Evil Tim, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:" box come up when I try to post. Also, I screencapped Black at last; I've got a new capture device that lets me record video good enough to actually use for capturing from rather than having to stick with the rather grainy stuff I had to settle with for Dark Sector. This means that all those console games nobody has the equipment to screencap can have pictures. Well, all the ones I own / can sensibly get hold of, at least. :D Evil Tim 09:30, 15 April 2011 (CDT)

Readcted Discussion.

Hi Thanks for the comment on my profile explaining your removal of my discussion on Redacted. The removal of the entire discussion proved unquestionably for me what I was fearing most and trying to prevent on this site. I am sure you are smart enough to deduce what that thing is for people like me - whatever you wish to call us.

I was originally planning to leave this site with a much nastier rant about all you people and what I predict for you and this site in the near future. However, there is enough nastyness and hate in the world, so the best way to go is witha good note.

I will try to close my account here, and I wont bother going to any forum to argue with any of you. Can I please finally ask you to please close my account for me if I don't manage to do it myself (I am by far no computer or tech wizard).

Goodbye mate, and take care of yourself. Tec-9 16:02, 8 June 2011 (CDT)

Hi again. Did end up coming back on this site to check if my account is closed or not, and yeah did manage to read your message and here I am responding to it. I can argue against everything you said, but it will definately be a waste of my time and probably your too. Regarding 'what I fear most and trying to stop on this site', I was refering to a fusion of ignorance, extremism and censorship. I'm sure you'll disagree, but that is just my viewpoint. My English is actually quite good, I just guessed you'd figure it out without the need for me to explicitly state it.

I am also not quite sure what you mean by a "martyr complex", I have no desire to die for anything or making a martyrdom out of being banned from this website. That would be downright laughable, as I have quite openly requested for my account to be closed, rather than being banned for speaking my "radical leftist" viewpoint. Besides which, even if I was that indignant as to claim I've been banned for political reasons, who would really care, and how can something so insignificant on the world wide web make any difference to this site.

So again I request that can you please close down my account or ban me on request. Alternatively, I guess I'll just change my password to something really long that I wont remmeber and logging out.

Either way, goodbye and take care of yourself.

Peace. Tec-9 10:48, 9 June 2011 (CDT)

Ultimate Force

Don't worry, am going to add descriptions, gun links/photos and captions, just wanted to add all the screencaps first so I had a frame to work on (have finished this now, so just about to start on the rest). As for the order of the guns, I did them chronologically (preferred this as it means it is easier to use the page to ID unknown guns IMO). In your opinion should it be alphabetical then, and is there any official rule/guideline on this?

As for the length, I personally far prefer pages for the whole series rather than splitting it into seasons, and believe that on the whole it is far more user friendly than split into seasons. (This is why I put the guns in each category chronologically rather than alphabetically.) Being a Stargate fan I am sometimes frustrated by the new layout, in particular if I am on a gun page and want to see pics of it being used and the link just redirects me to the root SG1 page, and am left guessing what season to click. What exactly is the IMFDB policy on length of pages (couldn't find anything about it on the rules page), as assumed this would be an ok length as it has a smaller number of guns than other unsplit pages on the site. However, I suppose if it is against the policy, I'll split it up.

Also, while I'm here is it against the rules to create a gun page for a gun that will likely have only one appearance? I found a BMS Snicam while doing this page and don't like it being unlinked, but I highly doubt there will ever be another production with one (or any of the Milcam variants) in.--commando552 19:53, 20 July 2011 (CDT)

Can my problem be resolved? --Masterius 06:05, 23 September 2011 (CDT)

Gun handling

Are you sure??? I have seen many comments about the gun handling in movies because it refers to the use of the firearms int the movie. I think that IMFDB would be boring if we simply listed the firearms and did not connect how they are used to the story. For example: on the Terminator Two page, I mentioned that Sarah shows excellent gun handling due to her preparation for judgement day.

Weapon Naming Question

Hello.

I wanted to inquire about one standard that is absent from Rules, Standards and Principles page. The weapon naming. If the weapon was called incorrectly in the first place, is it allowable for users to change it to correct one, provided they provide serious sources (that is, not some unsourced Wikipedian stub)?

An example of such weapon is SVU (incorrectly called 'SVU Dragunov', as I was explaining on the corresponding talk page. --Masterius 10:10, 11 November 2011 (CST)

In the future, I'll try to keep accurate dates on the pages I make, but I'm a little perplexed about why you've harped on me for some relatively minor mistakes. I do understand that accuracy is of utmost importance on this site, but since I've been trying to update and clean up a lot of the site, accidents are bound to occur. If you found some inaccuracies in my edits, then I accept getting a heads up about it, but I don't believe I deserve what seems to me a relatively harsh response. You're making me feel a little bit discouraged about doing anything for this site. --Ben41 18:41, 21 January 2012 (CST)

As someone still learning about how the movie prop business, it amazes me that the same gun that was used by Martin Laurence in Bad Boys II, gets used by some random thug in CSI: NY. Pretty cool.

Infoboxes

Hey. So first off, a disclaimer, I am posting the following message for each of the Admins so don't think I'm spamming. Just want to get input from all of you. I have been working on a number of infoboxes for different pages (Template:Infobox Movie, Template:Infobox TV, Template:Infobox Video Game). I have already gotten some help from Bunni who installed an additional add-on to facilitate the templates. I would love to get some feedback from you (and other admins) regarding these. Do you like the format? Are there things you would like changed? Should additional information be added? The nice thing is that with the add-on that Bunni installed, you do not have to provide all the information for the infobox. Any variables left blank will simply not be printed.

Finally, I would like to see how you feel about my adding these to pages. I have gotten positive feedback from a number of users (including at least 3 admins) but before I add this to more than a dozen or so pages (which I have done for testing purposes) I want to really get full permission. I know that sweeping changes are a MAJOR no-no without full admin approval. Check out the thread in the forum (http://forum.imfdb.org/showthread.php?t=1942). I look forward to hearing your feedback! :-) --Zackmann08 11:16, 9 May 2012 (CDT)

RE: Supernatural

I think "Jericho 941" should only be used to refer to the series of pistols, as all of the pistol listed on that page are Jericho 941s, just different models. I don't think it hurts to be specific about the gun you are talking about, and also differentiated between when you are talking about the gun series as a whole and the one specific model. I reorganised the Jerich 941 page a while ago to use the correct model designations (up until that point all guns were being called just Jericho 941s, even if they had the frame safety, were semi compacts or had polymer frames) so when someone identifies a pistol now it should be identified by the specific model. Most IDs pre-date when I did this though, but I can go through and change them (would also be an opportunity to double check that they are the correct models) , is that OK? --commando552 (talk) 08:31, 25 October 2012 (EDT)

The thing with the SIGs is that they were originally called P226Rs when they were first introduced, its just that now that all P226s have the rail they have abandoned the distinction. Using the "R" for railed SIGs is what was actually done by the company themselves, not something we made up. The thing with the 941s though is that there is no distinction between the unrailed and railed models as far as I can tell in terms of model designations, its just that the railed one is the current model. Not 100%, but I think it may be the case that the rail was introduced when the Jericho started being produced under the IWI name rather than IMI, so that could be a way of distinguishing between the two. Also, the American MRI guns refer to the later railed guns as the "Baby Desert Eagle II". We don't use the MRI naming but rather the original Jericho, but we could refer to railed guns by putting a "II" after them as in "Jericho 941 R II", but this seems a bit clunky to me and is not how it is actually done by IWI. What do you think? --commando552 (talk) 13:19, 28 October 2012 (EDT)

I am trying to write this without a tone of anger, but I just don't understand why you feel the need to make such a snarky comment on the JAG page.

 The thing with the SIGs is that they were originally called P226Rs when they were first introduced, its just that now that all P226s have the rail they have abandoned the distinction. Using the "R" for railed SIGs is what was actually done by the company themselves, not something we made up. The thing with the 941s though is that there is no distinction between the unrailed and railed models as far as I can tell in terms of model designations, its just that the railed one is the current model. Not 100%, but I think it may be the case that the rail was introduced when the Jericho started being produced under the IWI name rather than IMI, so that could be a way of distinguishing between the two. Also, the American MRI guns refer to the later railed guns as the "Baby Desert Eagle II". We don't use the MRI naming but rather the original Jericho, but we could refer to railed guns by putting a "II" after them as in "Jericho 941 R II", but this seems a bit clunky to me and is not how it is actually done by IWI. What do you think? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 13:19, 28 October 2012 (EDT)

+I am trying to write this without a tone of anger, but I just don't understand why you feel the need to make such a snarky comment on the JAG page.  I'm sorry that I'm not observant enough, but you could be a little bit more forgiving about this and help me out.  I'm trying to do right, but comments like you make, don't make me feel like I should contribute any more.  --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 20:25, 1 November 2012 (EDT)
