I detected a few flaws/mistakes:

BAR:
...The BAR Browning Automatic Rifle) rifle come...
There isn't any "(" in this line of text

M9A1 Bazooka:
...very heavy and needed to people to operate ...
The first "to", I think you mean "two"

No other mistakes I can find :P

PS: the Meter is much more known then the inch, and the meter is THE official lengt marker, so why don't you put the lengt in m or cm instead, or also?

Docastillo · 05-31-2002, 02:46 PM

I don't think meters are more known then inches my friend...

Endran · 06-02-2002, 05:06 PM

I think they are!... cuz the METER is the official length marker...
the inch is.. well :/ unofficial!... ask NASA

Docastillo · 06-02-2002, 05:09 PM

when it comes to weaponry, everyone uses Inches I believe.

Rexxie · 06-02-2002, 05:46 PM

jebus... poor slamm

I'll fix it tho.
oh and no we will not use m for the length of weapons

Demon · 06-03-2002, 01:28 PM

Well inches are used in very big guns such as ship mounted.

Meters are never used well I certainly never heard of it, you may be getting confused with mm (millimeters) which some small caliber ammo is measured in.

I’m sure most of us already know the general size of the weapons spoken about anyway!

Ps Endran - I detect a flaw/mistake in your first post - Believe you meant to say length not lengt.

Jakal · 06-03-2002, 01:54 PM

Actually the metric system is the most used system. Did you ever hear of a 9 inches pistol before? i dont think so.

Its more likely a 9 mm pistol, isnt it?

And on every ww2 page they use the metric system for the calibers of weapons/turrets, so i havent got any idea where you get the idea with the inches system from?!

Docastillo · 06-03-2002, 02:02 PM

True, I got confused with the mm...

ah well.

Rexxie · 06-04-2002, 08:52 AM

They use the metric system for the caliber, but I do believe you can use pretty much anything to measure the length of the weapon in total.
In this case the imperial system is used.

well does it really matter

Endran · 06-06-2002, 02:20 AM

LOL demon..

I know that gun leght is usualy given in inches.. and I cane I amgine how big a gun is... But I son't know NAYTHING about the size of an inch...
But nevermind me... It was just a sugestion.

As I said ... the metric system is THE official lengt system... (SI unit)
The inch andso.. are cheap as Unofficial :P

Just like Celcius Farenheit and Kelvin
Kelvin is THE offical heat mesure... Celcius is also ligit but not perfect and Farenheit is unofficial...

Just like gallon and liter.
Liter is official.. and gallon... NOT

(Nationalism again.. USA is doing alot wrong :P )

Hank Scorpio · 06-06-2002, 07:42 AM

and speaking of the m1, i havent seen anything about it...why would a game leave out 'THE RIFLE THAT WON THE WAR" Call me dumb but i feel that gun is a must for any ww2 game.

TNT · 07-10-2002, 08:59 PM
