I would create a page for Restrepo myself, but the problem is that I can't really identify most of the weapons used in it. And yes, even though it is a documentary, I'd like to be able to identify the firearms I saw in the film. This is what I use IMFDB for: to bolster my knowledge of firearms and to be able to identify them.
I didn't mean to be unreasonable and "demand" someone make a page; I just thought I'd get a little help from others more knowledgeable about firearms than me. With time, maybe I'll be able to contribute to IMFDB on my own. |

Thanks MT2008. I think the M240 was where I got hung up. I saw it and thought to myself, "Wait, that's not an M60..."
Also, I was surprised at the beat-up look of some of the firearms in Restrepo. I know these guys were deployed in that valley for 15 months and all, but damn. I wonder if there is any info or a book or something on the longevity of equipment used by Coalition troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. |
