You know the people who call an MP-40 a "Schmeisser", or the Armsel Striker and it's derivatives the DAO-12 or the China Lake Launcher the EX-41*. it makes people sound like idiots who don't know what they are talking about.
*There really is an EX-41 pump action Grenade launcher but it's a single prototype from the 1990's and fires a custom 40mm High Velocity round

Are you talking on IMFDB? or the general public? If it's the general public, you can't worry about it, but IMFDB.org is here to set a lot of those myths straight. If it's on IMFDB, then the person truly IS an idiot. (versus someone who just makes an honest mistake).
