Alex C. Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Crozier was such a dickweed. Source: the New York Times, General Wood, The Secretary of War, Winchester, Remington, Congress, The House Military Committee, and presumably every American who went into battle with a Chauchat. The best part must have been when Crozier called Lewis out for being greedy/a profiteer... and then he sent the USA millions of dollars back as promised. Oh, or when the board of inquiry regarding Lewis essentially told Crozier "motherfucker, you called us together because he doesn't like you? What kind of grade school bullshit is this?"

Belesarius Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Denel has a new GPMG that weighs in at 8.4 kg, according to Jane's. Press release says 9kg, but the engineer from the project says 8.4kg. http://www.janes.com/article/63830/aad-2016-denel-unveils-dmg-5-lightweight-machine-gun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There isn't much solid information about this weapon out there. There was this bad article recently. Mechanically it's nothing special. Short-recoil operated, like everything else, the slide is locked to the barrel by a swinging lock, rather like a Beretta 92 or P-38. The slide looks like it rides both outside and inside the frame, an oddity it shares with the KK PL-14/PL-25. The frame appears to have a metal sub-frame co-molded into a polymer grip. Magazines are two column, two position feed, which is a superior design rare in the West, but nearly standard practice for Russian designs (see, GSh-18, Stechkin APS, MP-443). The high power ammunition is interesting, but I really can't take this pistol seriously. How many years has it been, and they've added silly rails and silencers and whatnot, but they still can't manage to put an external slide catch on it? Saudi soldier with... something. M249 para version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brick Fight Posted September 18, 2016 Report Share Posted September 18, 2016 Went to a gun show today. Almost bought a Steyr 1895 for $175. It was pretty beat up, and I assume it had problems for that price. Still kicking myself for not getting it. Though I did get about 30 rounds of ammo for my Argentine including clips for $15. Is it me, or are prices going to drop out on the Garands? It's always funny because any time I pass by a table with a Garand, the dude is usually shit-talking CMP ones as hard as he can to validate that $1,600 H&R he's got.

Collimatrix Posted September 19, 2016 Report Share Posted September 19, 2016 This is interesting. ARDEC is developing a new grenade that, through some sort of micro-fusing witchcraft, can switch between acting as a blast (offensive) or fragmentation (defensive) grenade.
