Merge Armalite AR50 into here

This article seems to have the more correct name, according to the manufacturer's website. Mark Hurd 2 July 2005 04:30 (UTC)

The correct name is ArmaLite AR50-A1, but to signify the latest interation fo the rifle, it has been updated to a AR50-A1B. But the "B" doesn't need to be in the title. JohnC76 (talk) 00:25, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've added pictures, but if someone knows how to move them to the right hand side like other wiki pages with images, I'd appreciate it. JohnC76 (talk) 00:25, 20 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Contested deletion

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because... (your reason here) --JohnC76 (talk) 06:36, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

First off, the person kept deleteing the .416 barrett specs from this wiki. He claimed copyright, so I reworded everything. Even after rewording it, now he puts up this stupid notice that the entire page is up for deletion due to copyright.

Did I not just fix what he deleted (416 specs) twice in my own words? YES!!!!!

I am in the process of contacting ArmaLite for permission to copy anything off their site to add to this.

If this gets deleted before that and me fixing some wording, then I will not be back to rebuild this page as it has already took a lot of my time to build up with pictures of my own that I took, content, etc. Add the fact this person is really pissing me off trolling the page deleting my work.

Thanks...

It is just the specs of the friggin' rifle!

You people need to get this guy that deleted the 416 description for vandalism.

FWIW..

There are only so many things that describe this rifle.

barrel twist caliber cartridge name specs on bedding of stock brake design

etc......

It's like saying the description of a Ford V8 engine is a copyright infringement because you specified liters, number of pistons, spark plugs, etc....

Congrats, guys! You have just deleted all the relevant info on all 3 makes of the Ar50!!! You do realize the specs with asterisks are like the specs on a car engine? There is no way to reword specs like bore twist, barrel length, design and materials of the rifle, etc. As for the ridiculous comment about it looking like an advertisement or promotion, I am an owner of an Ar50 rifle, I only put concise facts about the rifle and all the pictures I took of my rifle. If you want to call it an ad, promo, or whatever, go for it. Have a nice day. JohnC76 (talk) 09:39, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
