NO EVA GUNS!

I'm sorry, but however those weapons look like to us, they are huge scale versions of real guns. Same with Halo, Team America, none of that here. Excalibur01 03:10, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

...then unprotect this page, delete the images I uploaded, and let me get back to work on the real gun sections here...--V 03:11, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

No mention of the Steyr ACR used by the EVAs? Okay, those were giant robot up-sized ACRs, so they probably don't count. What kinda of ammo did they fire anyways? Given the size of the EVAs it must have been something like 75mm!

The Pallet rifles aren't up scaled ACRs, the stock's the wrong shape. The Wierd It 13:50, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

If you up scaled a gun to that degree some change would be nesesary for the operating system, thus resulting in a slightly different buttstock. They were obviously meant to be ACRs.

EVAs also used Desert Eagle pistols and the British L96A1 sniper rifle.--Zurak 47 22:02, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

The initial version of this article I wrote up included the scaled-up versions of real-life guns the Evangelions use, but the admins forbade it. Apparently policy is that they're still not "real" guns, and shouldn't be here. Check out what I wrote up originally.--V 21:13, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

I did and it should be deleted. We don't need 2 EVA pages Excalibur01

Just a call back to an earlier comment, pages are protected so that you HAVE to register on the site so we know who you are. Excalibur01

I think that Eva guns should be on the page. Despite the fact they are 'make believe' they are still based on real firearms. If you go look in the ghost in the shell page or pretty much any other anime page you find guns that don't exist. Why should they Eva guns not be put up? Because of their size?ShaDow XPS

Yes, solely because of their size. And because I said so. :P Excalibur01 18:23, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

RPG changed to Panzerfaust

Although it may look like an RPG, it is most defiantly the Panzerfaust. At first this was speculation on my part, but its a fact that JSDF uses this for real.--Tested

What makes you say its a Panzerfaust 3? I mean the one shot we have of them using it is at a bad angle and you can only see it from the back; what distinguishing features confirm its a Panzerfaust 3?--V 21:14, 21 July 2009 (UTC)

No Spoilers rule being violated here

Guys, removed the excessive explanation of the plot. It violates IMFDB's no Spoilers rule. MoviePropMaster2008 03:00, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

...how can you *possibly* have a no-spoilers rule at all? Its about the guns, of course its going to be spoilers.--V 18:42, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Gendo's gun a Walther PPK?

I've heard it identified as a CZ-75 before, and it certainly doesn't look like a PPK in the pic (PP/PPK pistols have their recoil spring around the barrel, not underneath, and therefore don't need an underlug).

It's too small to be a CZ 75 Excalibur01 14:25, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Could be a compact or even a RAMI subcompact. It looks more like a CZ from the front than anything else. Anyone got a side pic?

Here's a pic of my 75B from the same angle for comparison link title

And here's a PPK pic; angle's not exact, but should be close enough link title.

Ok, account created, edit made.Notamisfit 06:13, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Page Cleanup

I went in and reorganized the page, and removed some of the spoilerific passages and walls of text. Hopefully that will make it a little easier to read.--PistolJunkie 17:53, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

Weapon in NGE comics?

There are several weapons that only appears in the manga version of NGE but not the anime. OK to put those up? I don't thike we need a second page.- Teslashark.

Nothing from the manga, please. Excalibur01 02:47, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Probably not...but what weapons were in the manga that weren't in the anime?--V 18:43, 5 July 2010 (UTC)
