Pronunciation of gun terms

How do you pronounce Berger as in Berger bullets? Burger? Berzher? Berzhay?

No idea.

But here’s a previous thread with tons of others that have already been discussed (in case you’re wondering). This way we can hopefully avoid this thread devolving into a “HORNA-DAY or what?” jubilee.

I pronounce it the same way I do “Frodge Lube”. I wonder if I’ve been saying that wrong…

I say it like “burger”. Still can’t figure out how to pronounce Prvi Partisan.

Berger like schlumberger??? Because thats pronounced schlum ber-zhay. Isnt there a pronunciation thread already?

Oh, here we go… :lol:

Is it LOO-pold or LEO-pold?

Is it FAL or F.A.L.?

Is it Aug or A.U.G.?

Is it VILL-tor or ULL-tor?

Is it SOO-geer or KOO-jeer?

Geissele:

Guys-Lee

(used to pronounce it gis-sell-ee like it was Italian)

I’ve heard folks from Leupold pronounce it as LOO pold so that’s how i pronounce it. Just about everyone else in Texas pronounces it LEE O pold or LEE uh pold, so when I pronounce it my way they stare at me like I have 3 eyeballs.

FRAGILEEE…must be Italian.

All covered in the old thread.

I know, I was just waiting for a bunch of posts to be duplicated. :jester:

No one knows the Berger answer?

Ogive?

It is pronounced burger. Like a cheeseburger.

oh-jive

So this would be redundant…

At one point in my life I pronounced it like you’d pronounce her name:

I said it. Ber-zhay ber-zhey

You could watch the video on the homepage of their website where they pronounce it? :wink:

How about recce? I’ve heard wreckE and Reece.

There are different ways of pronouncing “goddess?”

I think it says “fragile”.
