About the link

Could we change it to a standard wikipedia entry? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RPG-7 Dr. Blutengott 20:20, 12 August 2011 (PDT)

I see no reason why not to. Do it. Painted Vintage Merryweather 803020.pngFyahweather 20:37, 12 August 2011 (PDT)

"Musical instrument" claim

While I can certainly see the trombone in the Rocket Launcher, the article claims that "many" weapons in the game are partly inspired by musical instruments. But a search for "musical" turns up zero similar results on other pages. This needs to be either cited and applied to other articles or punted. Toomai Glittershine 14:35, 31 October 2011 (PDT)

Did someone from Valve say that it was inspired by a trombone? You could just as easily say the inspiration came from a blunderbuss. » Cooper Kid (blether) • (contreebs) 05:50, 1 November 2011 (PDT)
That's kind of my point. This article claims that musical instruments were a design influence, yet there's both no proof and no corresponding claims in any other article. Toomai Glittershine 14:05, 1 November 2011 (PDT)
Actually, it was brought up in the Well Developer Commentary, node #14: "...we looked to 60's era product design principles for the primary weapons, then focused on musical instruments for secondary and melee weapons..." TheKieranator 08:46, 19 January 2012 (PST)
