Personal image
please get rid of the springfieldXD picture, it's a personal image. if an admin sees the picture it will be erased and you could be blocked 22:55, 3 August 2009 (UTC)

Sorry
You can put the picture of the sprinfieldXD back I just remembered personal images are now allowed.

Zoom
Ah, I see it now. It almost looks like a serial number or some kind of designation for the type of body armor he's wearing, since it seems to be repeated on the fold below the actual vest; it looks like LT-2000 or LT-ZOOO (the "M" at the end is blurry, could be an 0). Googling "bulletproof vest designations" makes me think it's some kind of logo. In any case, I doubt Zoom is his name. I also thought he could be Makarov because of how he's emphasized in the video, but we'll have to wait and see. -- Commdor (Talk) 04:25, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Gunsmithing
If you don't mind me asking about your personal life, can you tell me more about your job as a gunsmith? Just some basic info like who it's for, what you make, etc. I thought about taking that as a career option after my service in the Army, so I just thought it would be cool to get to know the job better, especially from someone who's actually in that occupation. Thanks! 06:32, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Ah, I meant what company you might work for, but that does answer my question, too. Thanks for that tip on being employed by the Army for repairs, I'm definitely going to keep that in mind, as well as the tip on Machining skills. I actually am planning on joining the 101st like my great uncle (you can read all about that interesting story on my user page if you feel like it), but like you said, if I can get work as a gunsmith while being in the Army, maybe I can just change my field of operation to that and still be a part of the military (granted I make it through America's next EXCITING GLOBAL MILITARY BLUNDER - I mean, CONFLICT. Very good message, thanks for your help. 07:22, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey, he asked me. You're butting in quite a bit lately. 20:04, 27 August 2009 (UTC)

Oo, I saw it in the Sandbox. It looks pretty good. A little long, though, don't you think? 22:09, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

Pretty good. 22:42, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Your sig
Thanks, which one are you talking about (I had two); the one with the TF 141 symbol, or the one with the bowie knife? Your sig is cool to.   Maj.Gage   Talk . 00:21, September 3, 2009 (UTC)

Signature image
The Specialist insignia image you use in your signaure is heavy in .JPG compression. If you're interested, Wikipedia has available. 02:04, September 8, 2009 (UTC)
 * Anytime. :) 02:20, September 8, 2009 (UTC)

Quizzing People
Oh, GOD, I do the exact same thing. People like that who bring their input into a conversation on guns are just fascinating. They just found out what an "Em-one-nine-one-one" is yesterday, from playing CoD4, and then they think they're firearms historians. I love just poking at their brain in every way.

"Oh, that's right, the AK-47 IS a machine gun. Refresh my memory, is it general purpose, heavy, light, squad automatic weapon, medium, what? And how does it's blowback mechanism specific to machine guns differ from other Kalashnikov patterns? I heard some strange rumor that it was maaaaagically operated with gas that it just never seems to run out of, ahaha!"

"Oh, right, that DOES have quite a large 'clip' size. What's the mechanism again? And is it a 'round drum', a pan, I can't recall. Say, what's the default manufacturer's capacity for that 'clip' again? And is it loaded by en-bloc, stripper, what? And are you able to remove the clip from the pistol, or do you reload it while it is still in?"

"Yes, I believe a revolver is a pistol, as well."

"You're right, there's a VERY extreme similarity between the M14 rifle and the M21 sniper rifle! I wonder why..."

Sometimes they get the sarcasm after awhile, sometimes they panic, sometimes they're so dumb I have to explain THAT. So many opportunities for ignorant people. 05:11, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

Lol, wow, I don't care if that was my own family member, my fist would think before I acted in THAT instance :P You bet I'll keep making 'em look stupider, if there's one thing that I was put on this earth to do, it's:

1. Harass the worthless idiots wandering the earth.

2. Kill Nazis the enemies of this country.

When guns get involved, then it's just personal, y'know? I mean, I don't even OWN a gun, (save an Air rifle, which is technically a firearm in this state due to the rifled barrel), because I'm 15, and no one else in my house does either, but damn if they're not something I stay up all night thinking about. But, look who I'm explaining it to. :D Now you keep the world on turnin' man, I gotta get some shut-eye. 04:15, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

RE: Finest Hour
Yeah, I have it. I was actually playing it earlier today. But to answer your question, no, there are no usable pistols in the game. The only pistols seen in the game are TT-33s used by a few Commissars in Stalingrad.

I remember reading one preview of it back in 2004, saying that you would have an arsenal of authentic World War II pistols and rifles at your disposal in the game. When I got the game, I was sad that there were actually no pistols to use. 00:18, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

Myers
Lieutenant Myers was in Call of Duty 2, not Call of Duty 1. 00:25, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

Oh, nevermind. I see you corrected yourself just seconds before I sent you the message. We seem to think alike, huh? 00:26, September 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * Exactly. We think similarly. Also, can you try to get in the habit of adding a datestamp whenever you sign something? Five tiddles ( "" ) left after your signature will automatically add whatever time it is. 00:31, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

Re:WaW DS
The DS version of call of duty world at war dosn't have any perks or atatchments. 2:12, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

Signature typage
By reading what you put in the summary for the movement of your signature template, I assume you haven't made it your default signature in Special:Preferences.

Under the "User profile" tab, there's a spot titled "Signature:". I have "Signatures/Chiafriend12" entered in mine, with the "Custom signature" box checked. This lets me simply type " – " whenever I sign, which results in what you see at the end of my every post.

Well, I'm telling you all of this on the assumption that you'll be interested in knowing it. It really is more efficient than typing out your signature's title every time. 02:43, September 11, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I try to be helpful like that. :) 03:02, September 11, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Quizzing
Yeah, I do. Doesn't everybody? =)    Maj.Gage   Talk . 00:10, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

Hate nazis?
lol if you do then why did you say this: "Richtofen is one of my personal favorite characters in the Call of Duty Series."

Good quote
A good (and reasonably funny) quote I heard once was: "You don't die for your country, you make the other poor bastard die for his" - Patton.   Maj.Gage   Talk . 19:10, September 12, 2009 (UTC)

Got it. Thanks for telling me! Darkman 4 05:01, September 13, 2009 (UTC)
