This was a few years ago, when I knew of guns from what I've seen on TV so I didn't even know about clips and mags and I didn't know the difference between a Glock and a 1911 and AKs were the ultimate guns. No offense to AK lovers like YNH.
Anyway, this one piece of story was when I was showing a friend of mine online the new HK416 that came out recently. I said that we should use this in our little online forum fiction we were writing. The configuration I showed had the grenade launcher attached and for some reason, my buddy said "Hey...isn't that the gun from Aliens?" And even back then when I knew next to nothing about guns, I said no and he insisted. It wasn't until I googled images of the Alien Pulse Rifle when he said, the HK416 reminded him of it and I say...what part of this REAL gun. I also remember other instances of mis-identification with guns cause my friends didn't know better, like during the Peter Jackson King Kong remake, he said the Tommy Guns used were the PPSH, a Russian SMG used during WWII. He was a COD fan at the time. This same friend said the XM8s in XXX: State of the Union were the assault rifles from Halo
