Talk:The Man from Acapulco (Le Magnifique)

I don't think that's an FBP. It looks like the ejection ports are in different places. --Funkychinaman 09:37, 6 June 2012 (CDT)

Like this: I have considered three types. First he won the Belgian Vigneron, later the M3A1 Grease Gun. Finally I found comparing that most resembles on the FBP. Probably only has some minor adjustments. Or is it the main Vigneron with a barrel from FBP :)--Pandolfini 10:07, 6 June 2012 (CDT)

Why not Madsen? This ejection port looks very "Madsen-like". Greg-Z 10:12, 6 June 2012 (CDT)

That's a completely different type. More like is similary on the unidentified submachine gun, only be hidden in the wood. It is similary angular body ...but again has a different magazin :) --Pandolfini 10:30, 6 June 2012 (CDT)

It's quite a struggle with the translation happening. Then maybe someone will adjust the grammar. Comments below the picture correspond to the storyline, it´s not desirable to change the meaning, just adjust inflection, members, etc.--Pandolfini 10:39, 6 June 2012 (CDT)

The gun that's described as 'Customized M2 Carbine' has the looks of an Iver-Johnson Enforcer Pistol. Any thoughts? --PeeWee055 16:14, 6 June 2012 (CDT)

Yes! It´s! It is not this exposed model, but another, based on the universal model, but has the added handle in the front, about to order. Thx very much!--Pandolfini 16:54, 6 June 2012 (CDT)

That isn't and FBP Submachine Gun (the rear sight is wrong, the trigger housing ends abruptly with a gap between it and the magazine rather than the sloped one on the FBP, the ejection port is too low down, the end cap doesn't have a sling loop and there is a raised band in front of the ejection port). I think it may be a Gevarm D4 with the heatshield and front sight removed. The trigger housing and end cap matches, the position of the ejection port is correct with a raised band in front of it, the extractor on the bolt is in the same place and the rear sight is the same. --commando552 17:29, 6 June 2012 (CDT)

Yes, I think it's a good tip. It is also French, which corresponds to the origin of the film. But why shave it?--Pandolfini 17:55, 6 June 2012 (CDT)

I don't know why they would remove them, but even if it isn't a D4 I think it has been modified as the gun in the film lacks a front sight. --commando552 18:00, 6 June 2012 (CDT)
