In Response To: Re: NATO?! WTF, Bungie? (bluerunner)


: If it's manufactured to the same specs as current day cartridges, why change
: the name? A lot of cartridges are named for whatever they were originally
: intended for, but the name sticks with it even when it's no longer used
: for that particular firearm or organization.

: For instance, I would imagine that in the future a .45 ACP (Automatic Colt
: Pistol) cartridge would still be called that even if Colt Manufacturing
: didn't exist. The same thing with a 9mm Luger. Those cartridges have been
: around for 100 years and are manufactured by several companies and used in
: firearms made by several other companies all over the world, but they
: still retain the name of their original use.

Yeah, that's what I was getting at. Good show!
