I had a traumatic experience with guns when I was a child. When I saw the G.I. Joe cartoon, they made the M16, a real-life assault rifle shoot cheesy lasers, then when I saw Red Dawn (1984) I thought the AKMs were laser rifles but they shoot real bullets. At first I had the false narrative that M16s are only made to shoot lasers (given their space age design, sort of coincidence) and the AK-series, where at first they're laser rifles, only made to shoot bullets. I made a list of weapons that I wanted to see more fire onscreen, want/don't want to shoot lasers, and don't want to fire onscreen anymore. The following list consists of a specific model and/or modification with tactical lights and accessorizes. Note: this for future Hollywood and media productions:

Arma 2

Please do not add screenshots to this article as long as there is an inscription "WIP". This means that it is already done by someone. --MTOOO (talk) 11:19, 22 September 2012 (EDT)

Okay. I didn't know at the time. I thought I was trying to help but now I know. Thanks for the warning. Dangerman1973 (talk)

Why in the 2010's that people in movies still use the MP5

And I'm not talking about the MP5K, that's a good compact gun, but why in action movies does people still use the MP5 (full stock)? In reality US SWAT teams already phased out the gun for the more powerful M4 carbines, and I've recently saw a video that the MP5 doesn't have the stopping power to knock down a target compared to better weapons like the MP7 and the UMP. I don't get it when producers like Jerry Bruckheimer and directors line Antoine Fuqua entrusts in their shows and movies something that maybe obsolete these days in comparison to better submachine guns in the market today?

World War Z

Haven't seen it yet. Plan was to see it on Monday, but we've had some sudden bouts of food poisoning in the family that got in the way. Spartan198 (talk) 04:33, 26 June 2013 (EDT)

Still not yet, no. Spartan198 (talk) 04:21, 8 July 2013 (EDT)

Please do not upload any more screenshots for World War Z for now. The site generally waits until the official Blu-ray/DVD release (Sept 17) to start posting pictures. Your screenshots also do not appear to be from a HD source. --Ben41 (talk) 02:45, 15 September 2013 (EDT)

Thanks for your cooperation. It's getting more and more common that the bigger films get an early digital release, but generally the Blu-ray release yields better quality stills. --Ben41 (talk) 02:54, 15 September 2013 (EDT)

Guns I want/don't want to fire lasers/fire onscreen

I had a traumatic experience with guns when I was a child. When I saw the G.I. Joe cartoon, they made the M16, a real-life assault rifle shoot cheesy lasers, then when I saw Red Dawn (1984) I thought the AKMs were laser rifles but they shoot real bullets. At first I had the false narrative that M16s are only made to shoot lasers (given their space age design, sort of coincidence) and the AK-series, where at first they're laser rifles, only made to shoot bullets. I made a list of weapons that I wanted to see more fire onscreen, want/don't want to shoot lasers, and don't want to fire onscreen anymore. The following list consists of a specific model and/or modification with tactical lights and accessorizes. Note: this for future Hollywood and media productions:

Guns I want to see firing onscreen:

M16A2 5.56x45mm


Guns I DON'T want to see firing lasers:

M16A2 5.56x45mm


Guns I want/wish to see firing lasers:

AKM - 7.62x39mm
1928 Thompson - 45 ACP
MP5 w Surelight- 9mm


Guns I wish NOT to see firing onscreen/wish they fade out:

MP5 w Surelight- 9mm
