Talk:Commando
Are the shots I added okay? I tried to keep it down on the shots MPM. I bet we now how the most indepth analysis of the armory on the net. - Gunmaster45
- Could i add some screencaps to this page?-Oliveira 14:47, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
Widescreen/Fullscreen
I'm watching this on AMC now and realize I missed guns in the armory because they are only visible on full screen, and I only own the widescreen movie. For instance, I saw a Beretta AR-70 rifle. If someone with a keen eye has the full screen DVD, please feel free to upload. :) - Gunmaster45
What does this mean?
The text below the screencap with Bennet and his Scoremaster:
"Apparently he was instructed to act enough for himself and Arnie."
- What does that mean?-Oliveira 14:07, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
You've got to like Bennett as a bad guy though. I mean, not only does this guy wear a M1940 military holster for 1911 style pistol, but he's wearing chain mail! Talk about old school! Plus they use maybe my favorite airplane of all time, the Grumman Goose. -harleyguy
Y'know, a man with a moustache, wearing chain mail and leather pants, doesn't really seem like a match for Arnold Schwarzenegger. Just my .02 -SasquatchJim.
He isn't actually wearing chain mail, it's a normal T-shirt with a pattern that looks like chain mail. --cool-breeze 21:12, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
- Wrong, Bennet really is wearing a WWII era chain mail "commando" vest. Rockwolf66 00:37, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Bennett is actually wearing cotton knit vest. It only appears as chain mail from a distance. If you watch the scene where he and his men hold Arnold down in that room, in close up shots you can see it is clearly not chain mail.
Rockwolf66 please check the facts first. The director himself has said numerous times that the shirt was not chain mail. Plus what this anon man above me has said confirms that it's not chain mail. --cool-breeze 05:38, 26 May 2011 (CDT)
Ballistic Knife
At the beginning of Matrix's assault on Arius' estate he uses a ballistic knife to depatch a sentry, should'nt this be included on this page?--The Mercenary 16:34, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
- It's not a firearm. Hence it shouldn't be here.--Oliveira 20:17, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
Grenades are not firearms, so technically they shouldn't be included either.... If your read the guidelines, as long as it is military equipment it can be included in a trivia section at the end of the page. --AdAstra2009 20:56, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
- guys this sort of confusion is entirely our fault (i.e. the mods) for not putting up a guideline. I speak for all (well actually I don't) but I sincerely apologies to our members who have had to put up with mystical and sometimes nonsensical rules that haven't been posted yet. I am trying, and I was actually surprised, new members were actually READING the rules and applying them. I kinda feel guilty in getting pissed off at new guys for screwing up when it was us VETERAN members who screwed up in not formally listing rules and guidelines. I am completely humbled now and (when I get time) will strive to continue with the rules listing (all gleaned from months (has it been years yet?) of consensus from Mods and Veteran users about what should be on the rules listing. :) MoviePropMaster2008 22:27, 31 October 2009 (UTC)
- My point about this particular weapon is in its name, BALLISTIC knife. Its not a ordinary knife as it fires out of a sheaf/handgrip so should be included as it is as relevant as a crossbow and would complete an excellent page.--The Mercenary 16:34, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

- I think it would be appropriate to include it. It is military weaponry/equipment and I am sure that people would be wondering what it is -heck I was when I first saw the movie. --AdAstra2009 20:08, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
hey what model 870 is matrix using and what are the plate on the left side of the reciever and the brace above the slide for?dalemac37
- I believe it is a copy of the Tactical model designed for the U.S. Marine Corps back in the 1980s. And it's really hard to get nowadays. The extended tube has a clamp on the end. In the USMC version, the end clamp has a bayonet lug. What is difficult is that the shotgun changes (hence the comment about continuity breaks in the film). In some shots it has a rifle rear sight and in some shots the rifle sights are obviously gone. MoviePropMaster2008 07:46, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
MGC M16 replicas
I'm confused, what does it mean that the flash hiders are "upsidedown"? is it like 1 prong on top instead of 2?
