It's a website about guns used in movies and videogames. Now I'm not one o those freaky guys who knows what guns are called, so I find this site especially insane.
They tell you everything you could ever possibly want to know about guns in games. Example: 

Colt Single Action Army

Major Ocelot's signature weapons are three Colt Single Action Armys. The player also gains a Colt Single Action Army after being tortured by Colonel Volgin, and can earn one while starting a new game if the final dual with Ocelot is done correctly. It holds six .45 Long colt rounds and fires single action only. To fire, the hammer must be cocked first, or the gun can be rapidly fanned from the hip. The guns advantage is that the bullet will commonly ricochet off walls and hit targets even if you miss. Some dramatic license is taken with this; in real life, at more severe angles and distances (especially after multiple ricochets), the bullets would hit with stinging, but nonlethal force. Ocelot professionally spins two of them and also features a cavalry stock he fits on the the back to fire it like a carbine rifle. As a sign of his ability (or likely, his brashness), he keeps all six chambers on both guns loaded, risking an unintended discharge should he drop one of his guns or have the hammer fall due to one of his numerous stunts with the guns, including juggling all three of his weapons at several points in the game. Real SAA users would usually keep the chamber under the hammer empty and make do with five rounds. 
 
Imagine that, but with literally 40 different weapons in MGS3.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrggggghhhhhhh!!!!!!!

I tried searching for Akimbo 1887's and got nothing.
 
And if you don't know what guns are called, how the hell would this site help you out?

I like guns but sweet mother of Mary that's one comprehensive site. The M1911 page alone is overwhelming enough.

Do they only have guns that actually exist? Because I would be much more interested in a site that has insane details on fictional weaponry.

@shanchett99:  It's mentioned in the MGS article as being remote-controller and fake.

No I think they only have real guns. They're really strict about details, so I can see why they'd limit it.
They're still complete lunatics.

I like the one that shoots the metal really fast out the one end. That's about as advanced as my knowledge of guns gets.

If you search for 1887, you will find   Winchester model 1887 which is the gun you are looking for. Akimbo means you are holding one in each hand, its not the name of any gun.

I love that site, and I am a regular contributor.   Its about various guns that appear in movies, TV and some video games.  
and just because you like guns it does not make you insane, or dangerous.... it just means you have an interest in guns... just like video games. 
but then again, when you grow up around guns and are taught to use them at an early age, this sort of thing doesn't seem that odd.

So you thin the guys at IMFDB are nuts, but you're posting about it on a site that is self-professed to be insane, and is a Wiki, about video games. Glass houses and all. 
And there is cross over. Try reading this TL;DR article over at The Firearm blog. Its written by the guy who makes the guns for Crytek , Pascal Eggert.

Search for the movie or video game. Isn't that the point?

Totally off topic here, but I was kind of surprised to see somebody else using the angry face from Newgrounds as an avatar. I thought the post was from me for a second. Good thing I changed up my picture the other day, hah.

Yeah it's got like every single shot of a gun. This is kinda funny:
 "Chelios orders the doctor to "juice" him with the defibrilator. With his finger on the trigger, his body would tense up from the shock and cause him to pull the trigger, which would cause him to shoot the doctor. "

This site is going to interest me a lot considering the fact that I'm the type of guy who can name most guns/ammo just by glancing at them...yes I am a gun freak didn't the fact that I have a HK-416 as my avatar picture give it away already.

This is an excellent website. I went straight to the Die Hard pages, of course.

Thanks for the link. Listened to the Idle Thumbs cast earlier but forgot the name of the website they described.

You guys should check the "Shoot em up" page haha... It's crazy. All you see is the "cursor" (never knew the real name for that....) on the right scroll bar go smaller and smaller for like 15 sec hahaha.
