Talk:Desert Punk

I love this series! Have them all on DVD. The English language translation is obviously quite a bit different (and much more funny and twisted) than the Japanese original script. If you pick these up on DVD you won't regret it. From DP's disdain at his adversary's choice of a Dragonuv in the first episode through his failure in "his never ending quest to get laid" as one of the Machine Gun Brothers puts it, to the final surprising role reversal in the last episode, I never failed to get a good laugh and be entertained by this 6 DVD set.-harleyguy

Screenshots needed

I hope you have screenshots of this anime soon. I can't wait to see it. --Dangerman 1973 02:52, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Just a reminder. No Screenshots, no page. If this page has no screenshots within a few months, then it gets deleted. IMFDB is doing a quality sweep of the site (that is ongoing) and there are many new pages (and old ones which various members are trying to fix). Just a heads up. Somebody start getting screenshots of this show. :) 76.202.198.159 04:51, 6 January 2010 (UTC)

Desert Punk's shotgun

D.P.'s weapon of choice was specifically the "trench gun" variant of the Winchester Model 1897. Also, isn't a M1 carbine cut down to pistol size the same thing as an "Enforcer" pistol? Atypicaloracle 18:56, 17 June 2010 (UTC)

List of firearms

A previous incarnation of this page was deleted a while back, and here are all the guns that were listed. There seems to be a lot more here than on the existing page.

An M79 grenade launcher was seen in the hands of Rain Spider in the 8th episode "A Dog in Heat". The same weapon was picked up by Desert Punk in the same episode. Kosuna is also seen using the M79 grenade launcher as her primary weapon in several episodes.
