Nah, the "GMan" refers to a variation of my nickname in the military, not to any connection with the FBI. GMan552 06:16, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

Welcome! I appreciate your fresh set of eyes to "trim out the fat" in existing gun-related topic articles; Bluing (steel), Kel-Tec P-32, etc.. Your POV should also help balance the editing! Thanks! Yaf 00:03, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for your copy edit work on Topfmine
Good work. I tend to make lots of silly little mistakes when I work on articles. If you have any interest in the area - I'm slowly working on filling out the red links on List of landmines. Welcome to wikipedia. Megapixie 07:37, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

Designated marksman edits
Hi GMan, I noticed your edits to this article and wanted let you know that you shouldn't remove the Imperial units. I'm not sure what your location is but in North America most people involved with firearms, use and think in terms of yards and grains. So please don't forget to include them in your editing of firearm articles. Also, I notice that you changed a range at the bottom of the article from 600 m to 800 m. Without some type of reference, you run the risk of having this edit reverted; I won't do it, but I've seen it before at M14. At the M14 article, there was an argument over the range of that rifle. The solution of that argument was to have references for the ranges. Just a couple things to keep in mind. Regards &mdash;MJCdetroit 03:23, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

MJCDetroit,

Good point, I'll fix the units (if they haven't been already.)

Suppressor
Hi. On "legal status" paragraph about suppressors in Italy, you've fix my edit (that's good), but you have also change a little the meaning.... You've wrote "law enforcement personnel", in place of my "special forces"...that's not really correct because Police(for example) in Italy cannot use suppressors, but only special forces divisions can do it. This is because of italian laws about weapons are very strict, and weapons with suppressors are categorized as military weapons of wars. Bye!:)--DrugoNOT (talk) 17:09, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

M-1 Carbine Revert War
The M1 carbine article is currently on lock down. An administrator has requested some discussion from memeber of the Firearms Wikiproject. Can you take a look? Sf46 (talk) 19:11, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

The AT4 article
Thanks for the help on the cleanup of the AT4 article. Looks a LOT better. Editing is not my strong suit. Again, thanks.--Jackehammond (talk) 19:37, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
