Revision as of 17:10, 27 January 2013

Suppressors screwed into barrels appears to be a pretty common occurrence with prop guns. I don't know if that would instantly distinguish that gun as a blank-firing replica. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:54, 26 January 2013 (EST)

Mine or magazine

In below scene in the movie, the guy on the right claims he's holding a mine, but it might actually be a magazine for the RPK on the left.

Can anybody confirm what this is; a mine or a magazine? Thanks, --PeeWee055 (talk) 15:55, 26 January 2013 (EST)

It differs in shape from a Soviet 75-round magazine for RPK. But Chinese and Romanian modifications look more like this one, though not exactly the same. Greg-Z (talk) 16:02, 26 January 2013 (EST)
I would say it is a mine (or at least a mock up) as the shape is too complicated to be a magazine. You would never have a square step on a drum magazine like that, and the raised disc in the middle looks like a pressure plate. --commando552 (talk) 18:10, 26 January 2013 (EST)
I think we really have a mine here. I watched the scene in slow motion and the guy actually tosses the thing around in his hands (!) and the object is completely round without some kind of rectangular shape on the side where ammunition goes in/out. Thanks for all your comments, --PeeWee055 (talk) 10:40, 27 January 2013 (EST)

Page naming for movies starting with 'The'

This movie is called 'The Preacher' and I correctly named it 'Preacher, The'. However, I'd also like the movie to show up when people type in 'The Preacher' in the search field. Pardon my ignorance, but do you guys have any suggestions how to do that? I seem to remember creating a blank page called 'The Preacher' with some kind of redirect to 'Preacher, The' but I don't know how to do that. Thanks in advanve for your help, --PeeWee055 (talk) 10:36, 27 January 2013 (EST)

The code for redirect is #REDIRECT[[MOVIE NAME]]. Greg-Z (talk) 11:27, 27 January 2013 (EST)
It works, thanks! --PeeWee055 (talk) 12:01, 27 January 2013 (EST)
