Talk:The Walking Dead: A New Frontier

A couple things:

I'm pretty sure that the "M4-Type" is actually an M16A2/3 fitted with a 6-position retractable stock (covered in cloth wrap) and a RIS handguard with rail covers and an AN/PEQ-15 (with unnecessary zip ties securing it to the rails.) The gun has a 20' barrel and a fixed carry handle so it's definitely not an M4 or M16A4.

Also, the SIG P250 isn't definitively anachronistic. The comics started being written in 2003, but the storyline date is intentionally unspecified, so that note should probably be removed. --Sergeant Simpleton (talk) 09:59, 24 December 2016 (EST)

I've seen images of troops in the training/field with PEQs and optics ziptied to their weapons for additional securing before (example), so it is a legitimate if uncommon practice. But, yeah, no start date for the comic continuity has been given, unlike the TV show continuity where scenes in Fear definitively set it as beginning in 2010, making some weapons like the Kel-Tec KSG appearing in Season 7 anachronistic.
