  1.  @Cristian-nn5jj  The Whitwort wasn’t issued by the Confederacy, it was a privately owned weapon.

  2. dzejrid And this isn’t in Europe, so what’s the point of your comment?

  3. Kevin Storms I doubt this design could handle .30-30. Hence why they went on to the solid rolling blocks, which again isn’t really produced today.

  4. Yugoslavia by the time of the Yugoslav wars was defacto Serbia. Hence why they went around slaughtering non-Serbs.

  5.  @OAPHarmerHerrStarmler  yah did you miss the part the drone dropped a bomb on obvious civilians dude?

  7.  @idk1848  Maybe use your brain and some critical thinking skills to realize that the conversation you butted into was about the American firearms market.

  8. The best thing someone could do to update the concept is switch from a bolt action to a semiautomatic rifle.

  10.  @robtex99 he murdered those who denied the freedoms of others. At least most of the time. Like it or not but slave owners are the bad guys here.

  11. The Germans had bigger problems than their troops not having enough automatic weapons.

  12.  @ForgottenWeapons  crazy how people can get away with that shit.

  13. Yah that doesn’t matter if no ones going to adopt it because of price.

  15. Russia invaded Crimea and kicked off the Donbas war back in 2014.

  16.  @thesayxx that’s why markings on both sides are plastered on everything.

  17.  @mattynek2  thieves? The rifles were sent as aid to Ukraine by Czechia.

  18. This wasn’t the gun used.

  19. Wilson Laidlaw If an Ethiopian museum truly wanted one of these rifles I’m sure they would already have one. But they didn’t, and instead they sold it. Don’t like it? Too bad. It’s the exact same deal as most other surplus rifles in the US and Canada as well.

  20. No

  21. No, because they didn’t want to be paid. The slave owners wanted to keep their slaves and expand slavery into the new territories so that way they could keep making money. So no we couldn’t have just paid them, because they didn’t want to be paid. And frankly the government probably couldn’t afford to buy all of the slaves at market value.

  22. How about you vote for politicians that actually support social services in America then.

  23. Jussi Leppänen I mean if he wanted to he could be an excellent mugger.

  24. lukum55 “but it was designed to kill people” You realize that most guns where designed for that, even so called “hunting rifles”? An AR15 is as much of a valid hunting rifle as any other “hunting rifle” is.

  25. Yes how dare Ian talk about the history that this weapon was a part of.

  26. JAMES WORTHINGTON They are tools by definition dude.

  27. TheArklyte If anything people are moving away from non-AR designs to AR designs, notably the HK 416. And the G36 is chambered in 5.56 as well. Grow up.
    6
  28. The hell are you on? The HK 416 is clearly an AR 15 variant, while the G36 is based off of the AR 18. Two completely different designs dude. As for 5.56 its a fine round perfect for it's intended range, which is roughly two hundred meters. Grow up man.

  29. Generally lower than having modern heavy equipment does. It’s nice to have but not a hard requirement like having modern jets or artillery or tanks is.

  30. It wouldn’t. The main problems the Germans had on the Eastern front wouldn’t have been solved by giving their troops more assault rifles.

  32. No one ever claimed Russia was an American peer. And winning by air power is still a win. Only an idiot fights fair.

  33. The Full Irish GK Would be pretty hard to get a bunch of guns smuggled to Ireland smuggled back to the US.

  34. rwsthedemonking No, you’re pretty much just a joke.

  35. Man your comment aged poorly.

  36. Kod14kbear Communists are only pro arming themselves, and disarming the rest when they came into power. Authoritarians are authoritarian regardless of where they are on the spectrum.

  40. Galahad Du Lac Chinese small arms development is already mature regardless of sales to the American civilian market, and has been for a long time. Only thing banning the importation of foreign weapons does is harm the American consumer.

  41. 25% malfunctioning rate seems pretty bad to me.

  42. That’s the most bold faced lie I have ever seen.

  43. God I hope that mentality never comes back. Idiotic to think that the looks of the rifle affect it to that large of a degree.

  44. Count of Flanders I wonder who win in a fight, the swampgerman Dutch, or the swampfrenchman Cajuns.

  45. Only correct way to debate pro-slavery apologists.

  46.  @JohnHughesChampigny yah except that’s not true. Plenty of gun smuggling going around the UK. Not to mention other weapons.

  47.  @karlbark  thing is that’s not how it works in America either.

  48. The M16 is an AR 15 rifle dude. All M16’s are AR 15’s, not all AR 15’s are M16’s.

  49.  @JustSumGuy01  in a peer to peer conflict they’re going to be calling in artillery, or using drones.
