Talk:Firearms

I'm not entirely sure why there needs to be an article for "Firearm" when it doesn't appear to be something particularly unique or important to the story. CorbeauKarasu 14:46, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Still skeptical. Considering deletion for this page. CorbeauKarasu 03:39, September 1, 2010 (UTC) p.s. oh geez, a year?

I think it's okay to have the page. While firearms are not unique to Fullmetal Alchemist, they do play a big role in the story and I feel that they are relevant. Do what you want, but I think this wiki should be about the FMA universe in general, not just things specific to the storyline.--Full Metal Fan 17:08, September 1, 2010 (UTC)

Since the firearms in FMA don't differ particularly from real firearms, I think it'd be enough to link to a wikipedia page for guns or something. Any differences, or notes regarding the alchemical modifications mentioned in the 2003 anime, could probably be shoehorned into the technology section of the Amestris page.

Also (as far as this editor knows) no occourences of fire-arms in the series. I have witnessed boltaction-arms, and semi-automatics. But no fire-arms.--The last Alterac 08:54, September 30, 2010 (UTC)

Two words: Riza Hawkeye. She has used handguns in the anime multiple times. - WhiteArmor - (Talk) - 17:38, September 30, 2010 (UTC)

Those aren't fire-arms, a fire-arm is a weapon that requires a flame to light a fuse in order to "fire" the weapon, for example a 14th century cannon, or one of those greanades that Fu uses in his failed attempt to blow himself up, along with King Bradley. (For the record I remembered that detail several hours after my first edit of this page. So forgive my own hypocrasy of me giving my own example)--The last Alterac 05:23, October 1, 2010 (UTC)
