I'm in a doubt about Brett's shotgun, but others look like common top-break. Explain please. --Greg-Z (talk) 15:19, 21 March 2020 (EDT)

Breach-load guns is assembled in two parts, while the screen guns is a solid. And they all have ramrods. --Slon95 (talk) 15:30, 21 March 2020 (EDT)

Hey GregZ

Did you miss the rules about uploading tons of extraneous screenshots? :D MoviePropMaster2008 (talk) 01:49, 22 March 2020 (EDT)

I know the rule... I just don't think that these screenshots are extraneous. From my perspective, they are necessary for completeness of the description, especially because this production is 6-part series, full of battle scenes with numerous various firearms. But if there are objections, I promise not to do so in the future.--Greg-Z (talk) 03:47, 22 March 2020 (EDT)

the rules explicitly state to NOT exceed 7 screencaps if it's only wielded by ONE character, not to exceed 10 if you're showing multiple characters. Sure you can exceed 10 if the number of different characters using the firearm is more than ten, but that's it. I for the record DO consider the screencaps in this entry excessive. So I'm standing by my assertion that this page technically violates the rules. Try to limit shots that are similar, especially if the character is the same in each shot.
