There was some talk about the Desert Eagle on the Fringe page.
In one episode an assassin uses a suppressed Desert Eagle. From an aesthetic standpoint this works, because he's a huge guy, tall and very heavy. Same reason that small handed actors always get compact guns, like Agent Dunham in Fringe using a Glock 26, or Trinity in the Matrix using Beretta Cougars. |

Here's a stupid accessory. Suppressors that either doesn't suppress the weapon or flash

Ive not been on here for a while but heres my point, why did'nt the armourers of movies like TS not chop up a few different guns and try to create something thats both futuristic and can knock the hell out of a 6ft-8ft cyborg? I mean why could'nt they chop 40-50 inches off a barrel of a M82 Barrett, fair enough its a killer to shoot in the real world but in a movie against a T600 it would be cool. Its just a thought, may be we may see something like this if theres a sequel to either TS or Predators?

I guess they wanted to use real world weapons in TS before they bring in the plasma rifles. Maybe in the next movie.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but I just saw an episode of M*A*S*H full of Korean-war Chinese soldiers carrying Valmet M/76s (and wearing SKS ammo pouches, of course).

I saw that one, but I thought that they were Type 84s or something like that. That's the episode where HAwkeye and MArgret are stuck in the middle of nowhere together. BTW, there are some PPShs in the episode "Rainbow Bridge"

Well, the PPSh makes total sense, but not only are Valmet M/76s pretty distinctly Finnish, the Chinese never had AKs in Korea. Hell, I don't even think many Soviet units had any at that point - when they adopted it the AK was originally supposed to be squad leaders of troops armed with the SKS. It's only when the Soviet army went fully mech that it became general issue.

As for the Soviets, I believe it was after the Hungarian Uprising (in 1956) that they realized that the AK was better used as a standard-issue infantry rifle than as a submachine gun only (even though Mikhail Kalashnikov himself had always intended it to be an infantry rifle). This is also part of the reason that the AKM was developed. Last edited by MT2008; 06-12-2010 at 07:38 PM. |
