Talk:Breda 30

message: Those statements are unsupported, seems to be, at least, POW, and heavily biased too. The 6.5X52 cartridge was reliable (fires when the primer was hit) as any military cartridge of the period, and the barrel change of the weapon, as showed in this video ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-D3nN4QycM ), was fast, simple, and did not require that the weapon, or the gunner, would change position (contrary to what happens, for example, in the M60). The Breda 30 had enough real problems without adding fake ones.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.116.240.119 (talk) 11:19, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Breda Modello 30.jpg

message: "Although considerably flawed when compared to its contemporaries, the Breda 30 was still considered the deadliest weapon of the standard Italian infantryman's arsenal..."-This is just silly. No machine gun in the world is part of a standard infantryman's arsenal; the standard Italian infantryman of World War II was carrying a Carcano rifle not the Breda model 30, and was better for it. The fact is, this thing was an unmitigated disaster (as was much of the Italian arms industry of the period) and there is no reason for the article to go to such lengths straining for something complimentary to say about it.--172.190.6.89 (talk) 20:59, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  POV Turd Polishing 

message: Hello.
I'd like to point out a mistake in this article. It is said that the Breda Mod. 30 was used on Italian armored vehicle; that is wrong. While it was used on some kind of vehicles (like sidecars), it was not used on any proper "armored vehicle" (like armoured cars and tanks); the machine-guns employed on those usually was the Breda Mod. 38 (as it says in the relative article : Breda  38).
Therefore I would suggest to correct this mistake.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Italianhistorian88 (talk • contribs) 09:41, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
