  1. When your new gun kills the whole company without firing a single round, you know that's serious firepower :)

  2. Or a really stupid one :)

  3. Having the clips fall into the grip is kinda cool! Not that I'm a firearms designer or anything, but it's mighty clever. Just stuff 'em in, and when you're done the grip conveniently hangs onto the empty clips for you.

  4. Dang, the only way to make that puppy more complicated is by having guided projectiles. There are spacecraft that don't have this level of parts count :)

  5. Jeez, that looks really clunky and awkward to use. There's a reason pistols generally look all the same for the most part, it's because human hands generally all look the same! Maybe some weapons are better off if they're forgotten :)

  6. 5:44 Morbid as it is, this shit's neat. Thanks for posting! :)

  7. I don't own any guns, but tube mags kinda scare me. Good idea for the time, but cartridges are made by the gazillions and it isn't practical to carefully inspect every last one. Accidentally drop the gun and oh, man! Ian, good move on wearing your glasses. I've seen people running machine tools without any eye protection, and I know people shoot without 'em too. May GAWD it gives me the heebie-jeebies every time.

  8. Have you actually fired it? Does the trigger "kick" your finger forward as it cycles when fired, or is it mostly unnoticeable?

  9. Just the magazine is a really nifty mechanism. I don't even own any guns but that's pretty cool. The gun seems really quiet when you're firing it.

  10. Come on, if (when?!) WW3 rolls around then rifles will be every bit as irrelevant as Mach 4 stealth fighter jets. Just like radar will be irrelevant, just like the number of available troops will be irrelevant, their training will be irrelevant, their equipment will be irrelevant, and the involved countries' economies and overall productivity will be irrelevant. Even population numbers will be irrelevant. Because they will just use nuclear weapons. In the grand scheme of things, World War III hasn't happened yet because there's no point in having the ultimate power if there's no world left to have power over.

  11. 0:30 "..Recreational Machine Gun" Damn, there's an all-American expression if I've ever heard one! Here in Canada we have Recreational Pilot's Licenses and Recreational Boating, but an RMG is about as US Of Fuckin' A as anything I've ever heard in my life

  12. These guns were hardly the most powerful, but they could fire quickly and repeatedly! Remember, back in the old days, you fired ONE round from a blackpowder firearm. You probably missed most of the time. Then you were dead. With one of these, you could crank off maybe 20 rounds before having to stop to reload and replace the air reservoir with a newly-charged one.
