Collimatrix Posted April 9, 2016 Report Share Posted April 9, 2016 That's more of an issue with the magazine disconnect safety to be fair, removing it will take something like half the trigger pull weight off. Getting rid of the magazine safety isn't that hard, I've seen it done. The trigger mechanism of a BHP is really strange and atypical. There's no transfer bar running through the frame, instead the trigger pokes a lever that disengages the sear from the hammer. It would be a very good mechanism to copy if you were designing a pistol with a two position magazine feed, since it doesn't take up room around the feed lips with a transfer bar.

Пулей стальным is not right form. If you want to say "Bullet with steel core" in Russian, "Пуля со стальным сердечником" is the right way.

If you want say "Bullet with steel core" in Russian, that "Пуля со стальным сердечником" is right way to call them. I assume it's a shortened form of some variety. I am deriving that classification from the Russian 7.62x54mmR LPS/ЛПС ball round and the 7.62x39mm М43 PS/ПС round. Do you know what those acronyms stand for?

"Пулей стальным" doesn't make any sense, the words form suggest that more wrods are needed before or/and after those 2 words. LPS/ЛПС means "Light catride with Bullet with Steel core"/Лёгкий патрон с Пулей со Стальным сердечником (ЛПС/LPS). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Fight Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 So I've heard the whole "M60 is copied off of the MG42" bit for the last time before I actually read up on it. All that I can see after looking at them is maybe the top cover/feed system show similarities? I don't know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sturgeon Posted April 11, 2016 Report Share Posted April 11, 2016 The M60's mechanism was copied from the FG-42 (itself a Lewis Gun derivative, so the Wehraboos don't get too excited), with a belt feed mechanism derived from the MG-42.Here's a picture of the T44 Machine Gun, one of the prototypes which led to the M60, and which is more or less literally an FG-42 and an MG-42 smooshed together: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
