Talk:ArmaLite AR-7

Wasn't the AR-7 used by Charles Bronson in The Mechanic for a long range sniper shot to shootout a tire on a racing car?

Wasn't it used by Sean Connery as James Bond in "From Russia with Love"? Yes it was part of the special briefcase issued to Bond by Q. Along with the gold sovereigns and throwing knives!!!!

I believe a woman uses it to sniper in "James Bond: Goldfinger", but she misses and almost hits JB not even close that rifle was so large she hid it in a cello case, that was a conventional 30 cal bolt action

I just watched Sam Peckinpah's "The Killer Elite" and Robert Duvall's renegade character is using an AR-7 on a rooftop while attempting to snipe former friend and colleague James Caan in one scene in the movie.

New Format

Looks good. --Jcordell 19:49, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, just bringing it up to site standard. Orca1 9904 20:24, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

That's good. I'm still getting the hang of it. --Jcordell 21:51, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Now the format is correct. We've strayed too far from the standard that was established early on (not including the new templates). Characteristics is not needed. We always had a short summary paragraph next to the main gun picture and then the "this gun has appear in" line and then the film, television, VG, Anime categories (which ever is suitable).

Well good thing you're on top of it. You're right we have alot of pages that have thier own unique formats. Or templates. --Jcordell 00:10, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. Well a lot of pages just ended up looking a certain way in 2007-2008, so the majority of the 'complete pages' had a uniform look, and they worked. But between 2007 and (almost) 2010, a lot of contributors have been changing the format of pages all willy nilly for months and months. (this does NOT apply to the new box templates which members had debated for weeks before implementation) Now there is a mish mash of page formats. No big deal, I try to fix them when I see them. Some of the pages are just in limbo because they're not popular pages. BTW, there was SOME controversy in the past when new or anonymous members started changing complete pages ala new 'Wiki Templates'. I figured (as did most of the mods back then) that it was a little silly to completely change the format of a bunch of pages without at least checking with people. But a public Wiki like IMFDB is a like a flock of starlings, it goes all over the place, each page independent of each other. MoviePropMaster2008 00:51, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
