Talk:The Unit

This is one of those hard series since pictures are hard to find and I'm not a master of screenshots.

I like to keep the format I've set for the photos of M4s and MP5Ks the way it is because there were a lot of photos and I think the current format for those are appealing.

Probably Hard Shots to find

I only saw the first episode of this show and if memory serves me right, one guy went quail hunting with a pump shotgun (870 I believe) and then was held up by a man with a Mini-14 which I think had a 30 or 40 round magazine. Since the first episode isn't easy to find on the computer, I'm assuming this shot would be difficult to come by unless someone owns the first season on DVD. -GM

That wasn't the first episode. It was another episode of the first season. I do remember that scene and will find shots of that eventually.

Saw another episode one day were everyone was holed up in this house and one guy outside was shooting at BGs with a Browning M2 mocked up as a DShK. Sorry I can't help further but I don't watch it enough to describe further. Lot of good shots of M4A1s too. - Gunmaster45

Size of pics

I am not sure of the so called "format" of this site but I like the format of the M4 and MP5K section and how it's arranged and want to keep it that way. Also some pics are larger than others. The reason is that if they are smaller than 600 then they would look distorted. This didn't really happen in the old server. but for here I had to make them larger to they won't look so you can't seen any pixal on them. The larger size gives the photos smoother looks.

Not a mk 12

If someone has a better name to call it, then correct it. Saying it isn't something else isn't helping in identifying what the sniper rifle is.

Eat your Hard Boiled out

The Unit section now beats even Hard Boiled with over 60+ guns counted

Nice work, now I can only say that Hard Boiled is the largest movie page. To be fair though, a T.V. show can grow, a movie stays still but anyway, great work.

Yeah, nice job. I honestly have to admit that I don't have the patience to do TV show pages just cause they tend to feature lots of guns over the course of several seasons (especially a weapons-heavy military show like The Unit). Plus, I rarely buy entire seasons of TV shows.

Well It was hard to track down the previous season since links to them have poor connection. I had considered renting the DVDs. Either way, this show has an impressive array of firearms and it isn't stopping in what the Unit shoots next.

Rearrange of Garand, Winchester, and SKS

Recently the SKS, M1 Garand and the Winchester 1886 was moved to "other weapons" because they don't fit either section of Assault rifle nor sniper rifle. Hence they would be placed in the same section as the musket rifle would be since they are dated weapons.

That´s a L1A1 SLR

judging by the handguards and the front sight,that´s a L1A1.

It's still a FAL

Two nit picks...

The derringer that Jonas carries in while wearing the tux looks like a High Standard Derringer. These were double action, tip down, .22 magnum as opposed to the single action, tip up, .41 rimfire of the original Remington design.

Also, the lever action noted as a Winchester 1886 looks more like a Marlin 336. The 1886's bolt occupied most of the center of the upper reciever, while the Marlin has a round bolt with the ejection port on the right side of the reciever. In the pic, you can see the silver, circular section right in front of the hammer, which is the bolt.

Great site, thanks for all the trouble! Doug K

R.I.P.

Just read over on Imdb that The Unit has been canceled by CBS. Bummer. --Jcordell 00:22, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

From what I can see, the cancellation hasn't been decided on yet. But piss on CBS if they do. The Unit is the only show I look forward to every week. Spartan198 10:40, 21 May 2009 (UTC) Spartan198

Need help ID'ing AR-15 Variant.

As seen here: [[1]]. I'm pretty sure it's not a HK416, M4, or CQBR. If I had to guess I'd say it's a Model 933, but I'm no expert on AR-15s. Any help would be much appreciated.

Looks like a 933 or equivalent to me. Spartan198

Optics w/ BUIS an anachronism?

How is having BUISs on an optic-equipped weapon an anachronism when military and police commonly use said combo? Hell, even the Barrett 82 has BUISs. No offense to whoever made that statement, but it's gotta be one of the most ridiculous ones I've ever read. Spartan198
