  1.  @H3LLS.GARAGE  You have NO idea how many different types and styles of hat there are. You don't see it until you start looking.

  2. 04:55 - Fun fact -- the original M1 Bazooka featured rockets that actually finished their burn before they exited the tube. That's why the thing didn't need any blast shields etc, in contrast to the Panzershreck.

  3. For an undergrad paper, that's pretty damn good.

  4. Anyone: "Hey US Military, how much firepower do you want?" USM: "Yes."

  5. If you look at the US Navy's steadily increasing numbers of 20mm and 40mm anti-air guns on all their ships over the course of the Pacific war, even at the cost of removing ARMOR, you'd swear there was at least one Ork in an advisory capacity. This has led to Dracinifel, among others, adopting the term of "American levels of firepower" (meaning roughly "all the dakka") as a matter of course.

  6. One time at an Old West reenactment I met a lovely lady who had no less than 10 of these concealed around her person. You'd never know, given the elaborate dress favored by ladies at the time. Really cool bit of living history.

  7. They surrendered to him, then moved immediately to collaboration.

  8. Seconded. I'd love to see some really egregious fakes or just weird rebuilds like this one.

  9. I'd buy this thing for $20 and build a Metro cosplay around it. It's the only conceivable function for the piece that I can see.

  10.  @Locutus494  Congress banned plasma weapons in 1976 after an incident at Groom Lake or some damn place. I think that ban is still in force. :)

  11.  @WALTERBROADDUS  Go play "Metal Gear Solid" ;)

  12.  @user-kj6ul3rl8l  The Bastard's muzzle doesn't fly off. Not yet for me, anyway.

  13.  @dwaneanderson8039  It would make an interesting conversation piece. I mean, we're all here.

  14. Superbly split hairs, my friend. I approve. :)

  15.  @nickkennedy9034  It's not a guarantee of a positive work culture, though. I mean... Ubisoft. To take one example.

  16. It costs $400,000 to fire this gun... for twelve seconds.

  17. Did they ever get back to you about your role in John Wick IV, Ian?

  18. I've never seen a break-action revolver that opens from the bottom like that.

  19. I can hear Ian's heart break a little when he says that they aren't his.

  20. "Heh-cah-tay," Ian. It's not that hard. ^_^

  21. You know it's German if it's meticulously in ordnung and thoroughly overcomplicated. ^_^

  22. Rule 34 isn't just for sex.

  23. Or even better, an early steam tractor. Go full literal steampunk 🤣

  24. As a veteran Arma 3 player, my finger keeps twitching for the "3" key on my keyboard as I watch this. ^_^

  25. Waste of inventory space, IMHO, but yes. (Note: NOT a bad gun in vanilla RE4, just not worth giving up that much inventory space considering that you already have your pistol, shotgun, and sniper in the mix, to say nothing of various explosive options. It's just superfluous. Again, the way I play (slowly, carefully, poorly).

  27. I love the silent-movie style commentary during the firing. Very entertaining. :)

  28. Thank God that's not a thing or I'd be flat broke

  30. Actually yeah. I wonder if anyone ever went looking.

  31.  Alexi Malenkov  Not cool, bro.

  32. I'll stick with Patreon for now, but it's good to know I can still support you if YouTube completely caves to the fossil media.

  33.  @ForOne814  Just play ArmA 3, you can have all you want

  34. I agree 100%. Whenever I see some idiot say things like "they couldn't have aligned the Great Pyramids so precisely without alien assistance," I want to punch them. They had very smart people then, just as we do now, and they had a monarchy with the wealth, resources, and inclination to set these smart people to work on great projects.

  37.  @ForgottenWeapons  Now if that isn't proof that Hollywood is in decline, I don't know what is. <3

  38. He was; if you look back on the channel there's a video.

  39. As a WW2 re-enactor, I am displeased to report that Myth #1 is alive and well among the general public. You guys might be happy to know that we go our of our way to dispel this myth when we talk weapons during living history events.

  40. Hallelujah, brothers and sisters! :P

  44.  @ricardokowalski1579  I remember. Also as Drac went through the Solomon Islands campaign and reads the AARs from CV-6 USS Enterprise, where this one officer becomes increasingly in favor of what we today would call "m0ar dakka!!!" Great stuff.

  45. Same

  46. Nope.

  47. Only practical use for the full-auto setting that I'm aware of.

  48. One of the guys in my reenacting unit has a kriegsmodell (sp?) Kar98K that he picked up for a song from a dealer who thought it was busted.

  49. Here's a great story I never get tired of telling. I'm a casual WWII reenactor, and my CO (retired USAF, retired cop) has a small armory in his basement. One of his dozen-odd Kar98k rifles is a late war 'kriegsmodel,' one made with all possible features omitted... including the safety. This story is about how he got that rifle. So basically he was at a swap meet and happened to see this on a table with half a dozen other bolties. My CO assumed that this relatively rare example of a kriegsmodel Kar98k would go for a premium, and he didn't have that much money to spare that month. So he just picked it up to take a look at it, and offhandedly asked the seller how much he was asking. The seller quoted a price that was about 60% of the going rate for a normal Kar98k at the time. (Don't ask for numbers, I don't know.) The seller explained that he couldn't in good conscience ask full price for a rifle that had obviously been so abused that it had even lost its safety. My CO immediately bought the rifle at the quoted price. Once money was exchanged and paperwork was fully signed, he explained in brief what the seller had actually just sold him. The seller took it with good grace. The rifle now serves as a fantastic piece for weapons lectures to the public, and the rifle you don't want to get stuck with if we're reenacting German today. (We do both German and American, as needed.)
