  1. If my math is correct, this is .90 cal right?

  2. This is like the polar opposite of a Forgotten Weapon. This is an unforgettable weapon.
    2700
  3. One of those rare times that the Germans actually designed something genuinely simple... and then they just had to pair it up with the most complicated magazine they could find.
    2600
  4. There's more wood than gun! What a sight to behold.
    2100
  5. That's the stupidest looking revolver I think I've ever seen. I'll take 2.
    2000
  6. Almost made that mistake the first time I held an M1, luckily I thought "Hey, this kinda looks like a bad idea" and held back

  7. Any chance you'll be able to test one against some armor in the future?

  8. Glad you touched on Ronnie Barrett's story (though you really can't avoid it when talking about this rifle) He was the last of the true gun inventors. When you hit that technological plateau you alluded to in previous videos, you start seeing more things designed by groups of people, committees, scientists, engineers and advanced individuals trying everything they can to squeeze out the last extra % out of a gun design. I don't wanna sound like I'm saying "They don't make em like they used to!" or some crap like that, because we still have great designs today, but I miss it when 1 or 2 dudes could sketch up an idea, build it themselves, and actually carve out a pretty substantial part of an industry just by being clever and having an idea that's maybe a little out there.

  9. Careful Ian, if you upload too many SA80 videos, your channel might jam.
    1700
  10. I prefer the Asus Monitor tbh, better resolution
    1700
  11. This seems to settle it... if you want the best BAR, make sure the Army isn't involved.
    1700
  12. "The Russians just make crude and simple guns" [shows them AVS-36]
    1700
  13. Never thought I'd see something like this on this channel
    1600
  14. Incompetence? Corruption? In New York? Say it ain't so!
    1500
  15. This gun has an unmistakable "they thought of everything" vibe. So in other words, it's Swiss.
    1400
  16. Guycot. 15 minutes of loading will give you 15% or more on shooting time.
    1400
  17. "PATMAN WAS ABLE TO BUILD THIS IN A CAVE! WITH A BOX OF SCRAPS!"
    1400
  18. If I had a nickel for every time someone told me this gun was bad just because it was expensive, I'd be able to afford one of these.
    1400
  19. As if my wallet needed an easier way to get thinner
    1300
  20. I see JDJ was going for the "Scout rifle" aesthetic, but only slightly bigger
    1300
  21. If only they didn't rush the 8mm Lebel cartridge. I know there's always the butterfly effect to take into account, but could you imagine an RSC 1917 with rimless ammo?
    1300
  22. Love the awkward teenage years of the battle rifle when they were still being made with wood furniture.
    1300
  23. I never realized just how interesting this rifle was. Thanks Ian!
    1200
  24. H&K takes two seconds to show up a committee's decades of "firearms" "development." Proof that you can't replace experience. I wonder if when H&K's techs first looked at the SA80, if they all burst out laughing at all of the amateurish mistakes.
    1200
  25. I'm gonna buy this for the sole purpose of using ratty GI mags in it. I ain't afraid of no Teutonic gods...
    1200
  26. I highly appreciate that M14 roast
    1100
  27. Wow! A rare variant of the Garand: The assault Garand. You can tell it's meant for fully-automatic fire from it's clipazine because it has the shoulder thing that goes up!
    1000
  28. Ball-bearings seem like an extremely cost effective solution to the age-old problem of weak blowback homemade guns. I'm imagining a home-brew AR-15 with this system.
    1000
  29. No one expects the Second Ian-quisition!
    990
  30. I would do strange things to get an AS VAL parts kit in the U.S.
    987
  31. Now what about Gatling guns? Are they considered some form of machine guns, or are they just considered gatling guns?
    973
  32. You had me at "toggle-locked." Wish we could see the system used more, but it's pretty clear why we don't.
    961
  33. I call it the Iron Giant. No, not because of the weight or size, but because of that enormous chin!
    944
  34. This thing looks like the kind of gun I would draw up as a kid
    931
  35. Soon, I will go to one of these Rock Island auctions And I will lose all of my money
    925
  36. OH MY YES, Fallout New Vegas anyone?
    866
  37. 1:56 A rare moment where Ian doesn't have a word for something
    821
  38. That's all interesting, but can you tell me its spread from standing, crouched, and prone?
    809
  39. Welrod gives me a... Well rod ifyaknowwatimsayin
    796
  40. Leave it to Colt to ruin their own good ideas... and those were already scarce to begin with.
    789
  41. One a scale of 1 to "Definitely don't want to get stabbed by," I give this a 7
    763
  42. This "carbine" is basically S&W writing the book on how NOT to make a submachine gun
    752
  43. These really should come back on the commercial market. I would take this over the current crop of barely functional multi-tube shotguns.
    729
  44. Scoped rifles of this era are incredible. You would think that putting a scope on these old things would be pointless, but the accuracy possible might surprise you.
    724
  45. Imagine dying thinking your body will be donated to science but it ends up getting blasted by a bunch of pistols.
    713
  46. "Assault Pistol" fuckin' what? God damn politicians...
    710
  47. Now imagine Henry USA making these now
    710
  48. I am simple gun enthusiast. I see prototype semi-auto, I click like
    703
  49. It would take a loooong time for anyone to make a machine gun quite like this. Part of that was most countries hadn't established machine gun doctrine like the Germans had. The other part was that the Germans are really good at gun design...
    699
  50. Turns out that pistol design and manufacturing Izard-er than you think.
