Cooliest/Uglest Weapons v10 - FAL Pride World Wide - General

He's done videos on some Khyber Pass guns way back, I'd say he'd rather fire the Isard than any of those things.

There was also that Vietnamese blowback 1911 copy.

And the Chinese mystery pistols.

Chinese mystery pistols? What,do you mean those Mauser C96 copies they produced?

Nah, he means the Chinese Mystery Pistols: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HNaB7l2GQk

Ya lost me here

The PP19 is an AK. The PP90M1 is not an AK.

I know, I was trying to make a "why would you make a gun that's not an AK" joke and it did not work

Aaah, I suspect it would need more quotations and ""russian"" grammar.

"Be strong, Vladimir. Be strong for rodina."

Pink is actually decent camo in the desert, SAS painted their jeeps pink in north africa during WW2. But judging by the background, that's not desert.

It's a bit more specific than that. Pink is good in desert sunset and sunrise. SAS painted them pink 'cause they'd be most visible in dawn and dusk, and you also see RAF recon planes painted pink because they'd operate in those early/late hours too to identify troop movements.

Mostly unreliable because quadstacks are unreliable.

I dunno 'bout that. I hear those surefire casket mags have picked up in reliability. Now they're mostly just expensive.

I think it has less to do with the magazine itself and more to do with the fact that the M249 isn't really built to handle magazines like that, something to do with the feed system.

From what I've been told, you have to kinda grip the stanag a certain way if you want it to feed reliably in a 249. I wanna say you have to push it forward, but it's been about 4 years since I got that info.

Generally speaking dual-feeding mechanisms tend to bias in favor of one over the other. It's just kinda the nature of adding a second feed position onto an existing system, the original system, in this case the belt feed, is much better integrated into the overall design.

I wonder what happens if only one bullet is fired.

I assume it fails to cycle because one round won't provide the energy to move that slide and recoil spring

The tracks on that 2nd picture look really photoshopped, it's the tire all over again.

Looking closely, you can see the rough brushwork masking around the bottom right of the track.

I like it ;_;

There’s a charm in its barebones simplicity, even if it’s unpleasant to shoot.

That's probably the real reason, but from my experience the M249 likes to stuff spent casings back into the magazine.
