Please check a new article about a firearms manufacturer

I have created Truvelo Armoury. I would appreciate it if knowlegable editors from this project could check it for any errors or ommissions as well as layout, templates, categories, etc. (It is a South African company so please don't "Americanize" the spelling or grammar.)

Beowulf 50 cal

may i ask where is this assault rifle? I couldn't find it anywhere 69.233.27.235 (talk) 19:42, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

.50 Beowulf is an article about the cartridge. Roger (talk) 19:55, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Penetration images

I would be cool to have some images similar to File:Beowulf Penetration 1.JPG that show side by side comparison of different bullets. That image isn't great in my opinion, because there is not hole to compare it to. It could be like out images that show several bullets in decreasing order. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 03:14, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

Unfortunately "coolness" is not a valid criterion for including material in Wikipedia articles. This is an encyclopedia, not a fansite. Roger (talk) 18:57, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

That was rude. I've been doing this for six years, and I meant it would be cool, like it was cool when I made Jackie Robinson a Featured Article, but whatev. - Peregrine Fisher (talk) 16:49, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

Some gun law changes including importation of shotguns and some protections becoming permanent

As of the 18th of November 2011, information regarding imported shotguns (those considered non-sport types) was signed into law. Some previously illegal shotguns are now legal in the United States (such as the SPAS) along with protections for gun owners. The article is here: http://www.nraila.org/Legislation/Read.aspx?ID=7180&utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

Those of you whom maintain pages on the 2nd amendment, firearms, legality, and protections should visit the link and also search the government website to read up on these changes, along with an additional citation for the pages you work on. Thank you all whom work on our freedoms and firearm pages. 98.252.19.20 (talk) 02:01, 21 November 2011 (UTC)

National Background Check System

How do I make a hatnote or inclusion at the National Background Check System page to clear up user confusion that the National Background Check System terminology is not to be confused with Background Checks Systems (domain was registered in 2002 before government named their product) which is a private company providing background checks to business consumers. The National Background Checks System is part of the USA federal government and relies on fingerprints from the national crime information center and is more commonly used by firearms dealers and/or official government agencies.
