Proper name

Isn't this gun technically called the "M1895 Colt-Browning Machine Gun"?

Not according to the books I have. I have a feeling the names are flexible. However I think we should hold off changing the name. --Jcordell 02:31, 28 January 2012 (CST)

Good enough for me. :-) Thanx! --Zackmann08 02:38, 28 January 2012 (CST)
