"model"[edit]

Okay, is there some reason all these pages have "model" written with a lower case "m"? I think it looks strange, and ought to be capitalized instead, like it is when you write "Model 1903" or "Model 1911". Is there some justification for using a lower case "m", or is it just a matter of the author's taste? Because if there isn't some specific reason for saying "model", I'd rather it said "Model", to be consistent with pages on other firearms (and other weapons in general, which AFAIK are always written with a capital "M"...Modelle 1875 cannon, Model 1917, Model 1903, Model 1911, Model 1852, etc) Always written with a capital.
