message: Connors presented Brezhnev with a set of pistols that had been used on the set of Branded. As Connors' role name in the international version of "The Rifleman" was John McLean it was said that Brezhnev was fond of this character because of the similarity to a Western spy of the same name who worked for the Soviet Union.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.5.99.252 (talk) 11:10, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Two differing accounts.  In one he enlisted in the army; the second is he left to play for Yanks, but after a year army grabbed him.  Both can't be correct.  Will someone please change.Mwinog2777 (talk) 04:55, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I have not looked closely but there was a lot of content removed and the edit summery indicated that it was a clean up that included redundancy. When someone removes a lot of referenced content it is more than just "cleaning up redundancy". I am not saying this is a bad thing yet and will look. Content reflecting his sports career is encyclopedic and it is of interest that he was the first player to break a backboard that is noted at Backboard shattering. I started watching Connors as far back as 1963, and he was famous as a long time actor, but he did have a professional sports career that I was not aware of except through Wikipedia, so there is nothing wrong with the article expounding on this.

message: Chuck Connors admitted in an interview at the time of "The Rifleman" that he smoked three packs of Camel cigarettes a day. He did apparently quit smoking in the mid-1970s, although he said in a 1987 interview that he had started again. I think this should be in the article as it was the main cause of his death.

message: There are 5 images of Connors from the Rifleman in this article. It seems excessive. Considering he acted in 61 films and 73 television shows. One is sufficient. Maineartists (talk) 00:00, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
