Talk:Ultimax 100

message: The statement ""the low weight gives the weapon a low recoil"" is wrong:
other things being equal, the lighter a weapon is, the higher the recoil  will be. Imagine it being accelerated backwards by the forces of the projectile and muzzle blast. 
The low recoil of the Ultimax is due to its design - here is a quote from Max Popenker's Moder Firearms site:
""The overall action design allows the bolt carrier/bolt group to travel all the way back without being stuck into the rear of the receiver. This feature helps to reduce felt recoil and to improve accuracy.""
:so fix the article. the sentence on its face is incorrect and i will remove it entirely if you do not correct it. Avriette 04:41, July 16, 2005 (UTC)
Is the Ultimax 100 sight really that difficult to use? In my experience, the iron sights provided are no more difficult to use than that of the M-16; they are after all similar. --Rifleman 82 06:05, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The "problem" with regard to 30-round box magazines is fairly insignificant. The fact that special-ops versions of the Minimi have the ability to use STANAG mags deleted shows that it's not a feature that's considered very important. After all, a light machine gun with a low-capacity magazine isn't particularly useful. Using a SAW with 30-round magazines gives you basically a heavier M16. I would expect the same to be true of an Ultimax with 30-rounders. 71.203.209.0 06:40, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I'm all for a good video if it adds to the article.  I haven't personally seen your video.  I undid your revert twice for the reasons stated.  First, to add to the article, it needs to be accurate.  Second, it needs to conform to community standards.  The first editor that reverted your addition did so with good reason, he thought it was poor quality and didn't reflect the community standards.  Your only defense was to lash out against the person whom you disagreed with telling him that he didn't OWN the article.  Well, you don't either.  I'm not arguing either way as, again, I have not watched the video yet.  My point is that it's contested and, therefore, should be discussed here on the talk page until such time as a concensus is reached.  Talk away. --Nukes4Tots (talk) 15:55, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: In the words of a Latin proverb: "Actions not word." Go watch the video clip first before deciding I was wrong. I've seen the Ultimax 100 being fired countless times, but none was recorded on film. Here comes an amateur video (hence no copyvio issue!) which shows exactly what it is like firing the weapon with a C-Mag, a 30 round magazine and one hand shooting. I think that just about solves all doubts and questions, eh? Another thing, read WP:DTTR, it is offensive and impolite! ...Dave1185 (talk) 16:10, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: First, I can't as the firewall here blocks it.  Second, I'm not arguing with you, I'm asking you to engage in a dialogue prior to petty edit warring.  The content was disputed... even you're not disputing that.  You're merely attacking me and Kaolarka (sp).  Now then, if you're so into quoting all of these Wikipedia policy and guideline pages, then why don't you do yourself a favor and read through WP:consensus? --Nukes4Tots (talk) 16:14, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yawns! Watch it first, will you? I got all day to wait for your consensus, how long do you require? 24hours? 48hours? A week? A year? Hell, I'll wait and I stand to be corrected. In the meantime, I will be editing other pages so it's really no big deal, y'know? ...Dave1185 (talk) 16:19, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

text: I'll have to say, your flippant, condescending tone isn't winning you any points.  Yawning and talking down to long-time editors of this article gives you no pull over the community opinion.  Now, if I watch it and still agree that it doesn't need to be there, I'm not pulling any punches. --Nukes4Tots (talk) 16:25, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You talked the talk but have you walked the walk? Like I've said, I can wait (Wikipedia:There is no deadline). Cheers~! ..Dave1185 (talk) 16:32, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: First of all, who are you? You're acting like a teenager.  What does this mean, "You talked the talk but have you walked the walk?"  This ain't no schoolyard and you ain't no prom queen.  I told you, I didn't and can't watch the video right now.  Please refrain from your combative, know-it-all attitude.  Since you're walking this walk and have no trouble throwing accusations around, I have no problem telling you that you're being a dick about this for no reason.  You're trying to beat up people for arguing with you when there's no argument.  I'm just trying to get you to the table.  Chill out.  Let the coolness flow through you.  Take your medication.  What ever it is that is causing this inbalance of yin and yang, get over it. See, even DanMP5 (a cool guy himself) tacitly agrees with you.  I might also. --Nukes4Tots (talk) 17:46, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

text: First of all, WHO ARE YOU? You are also acting like a teenager! Think about it, it takes two to edit-war. Let's face it, we are both at fault for this spiraling dialog between us, like it or not... so IF you'd be polite and I'll be polite too! ...Dave1185 (talk) 18:18, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, Nukes has been engaging in thoughtful discussion while you make comments like these that don't even make sense, attack other editors because they make a valid point, and generally being a dick about the whole thing. This is just a discussion about a simple link to a video, you don't have to start attacking other editors for no reason. Also, you have been escalating this discussion, not nukes. — DanMP5 20:02, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

text: Dave, I'm waiting for the "nya-nya-nya" and raspberries.  Please, attack the argument if you think it's unfair, but stop your personal attacks.  As a 'regular', you should definitely know better.  Address what I say, not how you feel about whoever you think I am. --Nukes4Tots (talk) 20:27, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Just to completely clarify things, your last comment was directed at Dave, right? — DanMP5 02:40, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes... but I can see where it was unclear. Sorry. --Nukes4Tots (talk) 10:42, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

text: I don't much care for the video itself, it is a homemade film, I reverted for the "clip" (cringes) and the dedicated but unwarranted header. Koalorka (talk) 18:00, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Ha, I see you like the term "clip" about as much as I do. I don't really know what the standard for inclusion is for videos, as I can't watch the ones on articles like MP5 or Glock pistol because of my internet connection. — DanMP5 20:02, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

text: Alright, I viewed the clip.  Ha, get it?  The film clip?  See, I was making a pun as the word clip here has a double meaning as both a snippet of video and as a magazine in ignorant-speak.  I made a funny.  Get it?  Hahaha!  Okay.  Wiping the tears from my eyes for a minute... I don't see any problem with the YouTube video.  I've seen that before and actually have it downloaded somewhere. Was also more worried that the ignorant term "clip" wasn't being used to describe what is obvioiusly a magazine. --Nukes4Tots (talk) 10:47, 29 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Does anyone have information on the new Mark 5 version for the USMC? I have encountered rumors that General Dynamics is now involved in at least the marketing of this new version to the Marines, could not verify licensing status or level of American development work.

thread_title: Mark 5 variant?

message: As I understand it, the SEALs had tested this weapon at one stage, having bought 20 of them for trials back in the late 1980s. I have a quote from an un-named SEAL team commander as stated in the Jane's IDR test report of 1989, emphasising the need of having an accurate light machine gun: "Men react one of two ways when shot at. If you shoot at them, they take cover and return fire; but if they start hitting them, they withdraw.". Trouble is... where do I slot this in? --Dave1185 (talk) 01:13, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
