| − | I respect men like you heavily. Not only have you served our country by joining the Army, you continue to protect and serve as a cop. Great work.
| + | == Rebecca Ferguson == |
| | | | |
| − | Usually 15 year olds in my town are drug addict losers who despise the cops but I'm one of the few who respects the cops and try to have civilized conversations with them in town (some of them suspect me of being a smartass at first since all the drug addicts have made them suspect everyone, and asking what gun they carry sadly doesn't help.) Being a gunsmith with my dad, I've met more than a few cops, one of which carried a Glock 22, the other a Glock 37 (he was a state trooper and gave me my small game liscense).
| + | I changed out the actor image for her because her face was obscured. For actor pages, there should be further emphasis on the actor's appearance. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 09:20, 24 November 2020 (EST) |

| − | I wonder why the 1911 pistol is not among your favorite guns, maybe you just added the most unique stuff or maybe you never liked them? Every other cop I've met loves 1911s, but of course that's no excuse to type cast you in the same way. Get back to me on this stuff, it is always great to get a serious new user on IMFDB as opposed to the millions of trolling and idiotic anonymous users who attack the site with wrong info and spam. Welcome to IMFDB, stick around and enjoy. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]

| − | I fixed the page for you. I see you had uploaded the pic but didn't know what to do with it. Note what I did and then do your best to memorize the code (it takes a while but I have it down like the back of my hand after a year of working on this site). | |
| | | | |
| − | Just a note, you sign your messages [[Jcordell]] and you may notice it doesn't link back to your page. Know why? Your page is technically [[User:Jcordell]], and to make it look normal you put a | spacer after it and just write [[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] and it links. But the easiest way to do it is write three ~ simples and it automatically writes your linked name. I'm doing it now. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]
| + | == 4505 == |
| − | ::I love lever actions but I never liked the Savage 99, the lever feels sloppy and I didn't find it too amazing. I'd rather a Winchester over anything (although Browning made them so much better than they were made. Winchester was too damn cheap to give the public the genuine genius). I'm one of the few users on here who covers all generations, so I've contributed most of the Western movies on this site (I plan on giving the Outlaw Josey Wales page a major revamp at some point because it sucks now. Same with Dirty Harry (whole series is on my list since I have the box set). I'm a big Eastwood fan and I try to watch all the old films (Joe Kidd, Hang 'Em High, Two Mules for Sister Sara, and High Plains Drifter will soon be done by me as well). Have you ever seen Joe Kidd? He goes crazy with the C96 and never seems to run out of ammo, even after firing 30+ rounds. Eastwood's gun knowledge has since improved and it is rare to see gun mistakes in his films now. Anyway I'm working on ''[[Lonesome Dove]]'' right now, s I'll get back to you. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]

| − | ==Colt Trooper==
| + | Is there a reason you are replacing the fixed sight 4505 image with an adjsutable sight one for pages that have the fixed sights? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 20:14, 18 August 2021 (EDT) |
| − | I combined the Trooper pistols because we document guns in series, not single models (S&W revolver excluded do to the sheer number of them). You know more about them than me so please fill this stuff out. I didn't delete the Mk III page yet incase I screwed up something. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]] | + | :It's the wrong gun though, they are two different versions with different sights. I got rid of the cocked hammer image as that was horrifically edited, but the other one seems fine to me, especailly if it is actually the right model. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 20:20, 18 August 2021 (EDT) |
| | + | ::If you find a better image of a fixed sight 4505 feel free to replace it. I have updated the curent fixed sight image with a better condition example, it could be a better photo but at least the gun doesn't look like it was run over. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 10:19, 20 August 2021 (EDT) |

| − | ==So are you a fan of the Omega man too?== | + | == RE: Bill Pullman is NOT dead == |
| − | I find that most guys over the age of 35 are big fans of the OMEGA man. not so much the remake [[I Am Legend]]. I have a bust of Caesar with a vintage Green Colonel's Class A visor hat, a burgundy cape set at a chess table. I know three other guys who have the same thing in their houses! hahaha. I Don't have a S&W M76 though, but two friends who are big Omega Man fans do, so they got me beat. :) I do have all the other guns (except for the M3 with IR scope, which is really rare, the Nickel M1903/1908 in nickel, or the Danish Madsen M50 :( but one can always try to expand one's collection ;) hahaha.

| − | ==You're right==
| + | LOL no worries- I figured it may be a mix-up between the two famous Bill Ps. I will admit- I got a bit worried when I saw "late" next to Bill Pullman's name and immediately went to Google. --[[User:PyramidHead|PyramidHead]] ([[User talk:PyramidHead|talk]]) 20:19, 17 February 2022 (EST) |

| − | It's one of my favorites too. I'm trying to find the original auction for the 1872 era Gatling used in the movie but I'm having trouble. I had an auction book with all the info that I missplaced, so I'm surfing the net for it. I'm correcting Dirty Harry right now because I discover he is actually using a .44 Magnum, there's is an artical on a Dirty Harry site on it. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]
| + | No worries, I figured you've been around the block long enough to not make petty undos. I remember Goldstone was on Netflix for a while but got removed before I could get around to seeing it, alas. --[[User:PyramidHead|PyramidHead]] ([[User talk:PyramidHead|talk]]) 00:33, 23 August 2022 (EDT) |

| |
| − | :Thanks, I'll probably have time to upload them later tonight. As usual I sharpened and brightened the images so they'll look great. Don't believe I had any trouble IDing anything so the page should be thorough once I'm done. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]

| − | I remember seeing that movie at my IGA grocery store, would you like me to pick it up and screencap it? - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]] | |
| − | :Simon Wincer also directed [[Quigley Down Under]], which I'm fixing up and adding screencaps now. This movie was the first I ever uploaded for the site back last July. The first time I did it I had screencaps with widescreen bars, the second time I did it I was still only half-pro and now I'm going all pro. If I can't get it fully done after three attempts I'm not doing my job right. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]

| − | ::My dad gets American Rifleman (and has since the 1980s), so he got a commemerative .45-110 shell signed by Tom Selleck from [[Quigley Down Under]] as a gift. It was cool. Did they have any info on that movie in the issue? - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]

| | | | |
| − | == Contact? == | + | ==RE: Pedro Pascal== |
| | + | Thanks. I'm all about adding succinct info blurbs for pages that get the point across, considering a lot of people use this site as a place for information rather than just dry listings for how many times the Glock 635273 appeared in a film. I agree- Pedro is becoming one of the biggest actors in TV in the 2020s so I think he deserves his bio, too! --[[User:PyramidHead|PyramidHead]] ([[User talk:PyramidHead|talk]]) 04:21, 19 January 2023 (UTC) |

| − | Since the news of David Carradine's death :( I was cruising around IMFDB and I noticed a nice touch to Charlton Heston's page. Someone put a photo of him, not a screenshot, in which it simply stated, "Charlton Heston: 1923 - 2008" I wanted to do something similar to Brandon Lee's page (1965-1993) :( , but I also thought that it would be nice (but completely optional) to put a DOB-DOD listing on actors who have passed away. I was going to do one for PhoenixEnt's page for Morris Ankrum the actor, I was going to put (1896-1964) but I figured I would check first. Also I thought it would be nice to know which of our famous actors have passed on. Thoughts anyone? I'm not going to do any sort of mass campaign to do so, but to know that no one else has objections would be nice. :) MPM2008

| − | Really? Thanks you! It's more of compliment to William Holden though.-[[User:Oliveira|Oliveira]] 18:21, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
| |
| − | :Yay! I always liked William Holden. That man is pure testosterone. Until the 1980s, William Holden and other actors like Charlton Heston, Warren Oates, Gregory Peck, Ben Johnson and many more were the Stallones, Van dammes, Stathams and Schwarzeneggers of the Era. Hell, Holden was better than most of them even though you can't compare them because they are so different. They are all badasses. All of them are part of film history.-[[User:Oliveira|Oliveira]] 18:36, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

| − | ==Passed actors==
| |
| − | FYI, what might be better is to get a really good color screengrab of them in an iconic role rather than a studio still. It doesn't jar against site's style. I actually did montages of color studio shots with iconic screenroles, in keeping with the screenshot 'feel' of the pages. Just a thought.

| − | ==thanks==
| |
| − | Me too. If anyone has a superior pic to one of mine, I don't care if they get replaced. As far as Deforest Kelley, I've been struggling to get good solo shots of him with a firearm in one of his iconic roles. I like the candid shot of him with his dogs, so I am working to replace the McCoy shot with hypo with another McCoy shot (holding a gun). He has some pics but he's always in frame with other actors, and I don't like that. It should be the actor by himself, especially if it is a memorial image. So if you get a stunning superior shot of any of the actors, feel free to replace them ... even mine ;) hahaha. It's just a style thing. If we can get images that crop more closely to the 'screenshot' look, it looks much slicker. OF course it depends on what image adjustment software you have. CS4 would help. :) best regards [[User:MoviePropMaster2008|MoviePropMaster2008]] 19:01, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

If you did, you need to cap the rest of the film and replace my images I uploaded. I have it on Blu-Ray, but neither of my computers can play it so I'm using my standard dvd.

Among other things, you got all that information about [[Jim Zubiena]] and identified his rifle (something that had been bugging me for a while). You've been a key player in its development, so, when you get a chance, put that one on there. :) -[[User:Gunman69|Gunman69]] 05:08, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

| − | | |
| − | Jcordell, The VLC player defaults the screencaps as PNG's for some reason. What you have to do is go to Tools, then click Preferences at the bottom. Then click on video and there is a section for video snapshots. Then you can change the format from png to jpeg. So any new caps will be jpeg. There is also a directory where you set the folder where you want the pics to go. Hope this helps. -[[User:Predator20|Predator20]] 22:18, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

| − | ==(here is a note I've been posting around IMFDB)==
| |
| − | ''I recently had the unpleasant experience of having some of the performers being insulted in some of our movie pages see what some of the IMFDB members write. there are some pretty condescending remarks regarding horrible grips, gun stance, bad gun discipline and blinking while shooting. I'm trying to promote the website and it's embarrassing to see actors getting insulted for pretty trivial reasons. What are your thoughts regarding this?
| |
| − | | |
| − | See below:''
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | '''I'm asking all members to stop with the sarcastic comments in the screencap descriptions'''
| |
| − | Too many members feel it's funny to be extremely sarcastic about actor's shooting stance, their blinking, their pistol grips. Only if it's so over the top as for the average person to notice, then don't keep on harping on it. Most actors are given only a bare amount of time to train, if at all. Many times the editor picks the worst take for pistol grip, but best take for other reasons like acting. Also much of the blame falls on the director. Some directors don't want to be bothered trying to train the actors and don't allow us armorers to even give them more training than the minimum safety training. People in the industry check out this website, and some think we're a bunch of obnoxious kids. I am not happy when people in 'the biz' look at the site and scoff at the snarky remarks. Some of them are the actual actors being insulted. We can always put in criticism, but IMFDB members going forward going to criticize a film, should try to do so in a scholarly manner or not at all. Thanks for your cooperation [[User:MoviePropMaster2008|MoviePropMaster2008]] 05:53, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

| − | Please don’t hate me lol. Glad you liked the [[Hell Is for Heroes]] page. Probably a much overlooked WWII film despite the quality of it. I thought about the same connection this movie has to [[Saving Private Ryan]] when I fist saw it. Especially in the scene where the soldier has been shot and is just freaking out after he has been wounded. Sorry I beat you too it, but then again maybe it was for the better lol. Like you said the movie is dark as hell for the most part. Screen capping the German weapons was a pain in my bung hole, but worth it.

| − | [[Scarface]] fans will crap in their pants. Got the ACTUAL '''screen used''' LITTLE FRIEND. Now I used black gaffers tape and taped two 30 round magazines together as best I could (to try to match the screenshots). Do you think that was smart? or should I just present it with a plain magazine? Anyway, I did that because I wanted people to see it as it was most seen in the movie (Wow that launcher is beat up, it's been 25 years after all since the movie was filmed!!!!) It is also the old launchers that were used before the Cobray 37mm launchers became prevalent.
