Talk:2012

QBZ 95

Finally the actual stand in weapon for the Chinese military. At least they didn't have the Chinese with AKs Excalibur01

This movie was filmed in British Columbia, and as we've seen on TV shows like Stargate: Atlantis, the Canadian armorers can buy the QBZ rifles (and have evidently done so). Whereas American armorers can't. -MT2008

It's a good thing that they are highly accurate on guns. - Kenny99 13:38, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Uniforms

Are those Multicam uniforms that the U.S. troops are wearing? As much as the ACU might have its (well-known) faults, it seems pretty optimistic to expect its replacement by 2012. :) -MT2008 04:51, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Well, the US Army is actually fielding multicam uniforms to troops in/deploying to Afghanistan as of this year [1]. But I sure do hope that's the only thing the movie accurately predicts... :O Spartan198 08:24, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I recall hearing that the Multicam was being fielded on a limited basis in Afghanistan, but I didn't hear anything about whether or not it's being standardized. Would be nice, though, since the ACU was clearly a bad idea. -MT2008 17:33, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

I've seen alot of photos in Afghanistan and the ACUs actually blend in pretty well. The problem is that the ACUs are supposed to be a "Universal" Camouflage(The correct term for the actual pattern is UCP) and its basically worthless in a woodland environment. --AdAstra2009 20:17, 13 May 2010 (UTC)
