I used to buy them for $25 each out of a big barrel of them. Sometimes I would swap parts when the gun store guy wasn't looking. I'm not overly fond of them but I hit what I was shooting at and they do hit hard.
I have a model 38 pre-war production, and it's smooth as silk. The wartime production guns were crap, but they weren't going for perfection, just survival.
@sl0re10 think the reason why he used iron sight instead of scope is that he was compromised once due to the reflection on the scope, same thing that likely killed Joseph Allerberger's (2nd highest kill rank German sniper) partner
The Thompson Submachine Gun isn’t about functionality or effectiveness. It’s about looking cool and saying “nyeh” and “see?” at the end of every sentence.
The Thompson did play a critical role in winning ww2. It laid great close cover fire and quick maneuverable room clearing. That being ssid ya there's a lot of modern weapons that would probably do a better job.
Garbage Rod is a good & cheap surplus rifle, shit I even own one. Definitely not a fan boy of it however. I prefer my Mauser Kar98k ten times over my Mosin, hands down. Bolts easier to manipulate, easier to quickly reload, and in my opinion; far better ammo type than the Mosins 7.62x54R, and not to mention the Kar98k is ridiculously more accurate.
You'd have a point, Prince Mercy, except he didn't say, or even imply, that "this is not meant to offend anyone". What he actually said was *Warning: this video may cause undue butthurt to people who own one or more of these firearms* . He did said right away that this video is _probably going to cause butthurt_ !
Freedom Isn't Free The Mosin is incredibly reliable, and incredibly easy to take down/clean. I deer hunt with it in rain, snow. Quick clean and she’s good as new. Some bolts work flawlessly, others not so much. Mines a ‘39, never had a single issue.
Friquido A lot of money? You think 150$ is a lot of money lol. I’ve taken 4 deer with mine. Put 1000 plus rounds through mine. So no. Either you’ve never owned a Mosin, or you didn’t check yours before and it turned out to be garbage, which is your fault lol. Take care of it, it’ll be fine.
Friquido Will I send you 150$? Lmfao no. I will spend that money on myself though. You can be naive and suck your “gun nut friends” off lmao. I’m sure they’re all Fudds, or cringy tacticool black synthetic stock rifle fanboys that role play like soldiers lol. You go ahead and tell Simo Hayha, or all the Russian female snipers of WW2 with some of the highest kill counts, that their rifle was garbage. I’ll give you a tip - they’d outshoot you any day of the week with your little modern synthetic rifle, lol. Maybe it’s user error? Maybe you don’t take care of your arms? Either way - me and my “always trash” firearm will be out for deer this season :)
I was right there with you, thinking "mine is crazy accurate!" But then I forgot about the grueling time spend figuring out what ammo it likes and polishing the trigger and bolt groups. That being said, after finding preferred ammo to a gun that wasnt neglected via corrosive steel cartridge ammo, and an hr polishing and working the trigger to1.6lb pull, it's the first gun I grab regardless of what I'm shooting for... currently holds 4.5" 3shot groups at 900yrds.
While I bought one for cheap, I would never defend any criticism of it, or count it as a go to if needed. They were a craze due to the no longer available cheap surplus ammo.
Here... I'll drop a little present for anyone who loves their mosin. I've tried this in multiple mosin nagants across the country, and get the same results with each... some being better than others due to bull barrels and trigger groups... Hand load... .311 dia 174gr Sierra match king hpbt, 43.5 grain varget powder, cci 250 mag primers, chanfer and de-bur the primer pockets and neck, and seat the projectile where its .002 jammed.... biggest group I've seen from this was 1"@100yrds with probably the most abused mosin ever. Its throat and chamber was so worn some of the shelf ammo cases would split on the shoulder.... aside from that one, groups ranged from 3/4" 1/8"....... oh, and this is for barrels that have been cut down to 22"-24" from the throat. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!
Weird how can mosin be shit when the deadliest single weapon known in history is a slightly modified mosin wielded by white death. Claiming its inaccurate is also a joke considering that guy just used the iron sights to kill 546 soviets.
@@Jebu911 they aren't that bad they were probably pretty good new but some of them are well over 100 years old and have seen a ridiculous number of rounds so most of them are no longer accurate also they used a corrosive ammo so they can be pretty bad at this point
@Barracuda340000 people hate it the same reason they hate on the sks now because a few years ago they were both cheap. I saw mosins for 80$ and bought my sks for 120$ now theyre both being sold for around 300$ and as they get more expensive they become worse in comparision to other rifles.
I think it’s a rifle where you get what you pay for. It doesn’t feel good and isn’t extremely accurate, but they aren’t a bad backup gun. They are cheap guns that do there jobs. They don’t to their jobs amazing, but they can get it done.
They dont call it a garbage rod for nothing. When my dad found out I paid $120 for a "hex bolt" tula built in 1933, he asked me if I got a case of ammo free. He also calls them tomato stakes.
The point he was making was that the Thompson weighs more than an M4, and only fires a pistol cartridge. If I had a choice between a Thompson and an M1 or M2 carbine, I'd take the carbine any day.

There's an anecdote M16 - harder in production than some airplanes AK47 - used by countries who can't afford airplanes Mosin Rifle - known for shooting down airplanes
I am a U.S. Navy Vietnam combat vet. in 1971, the year when my missions took place, the Navy still had the M1A1 in issue. Fortunately, due to the nature of my missions, I was able to choose my weapons. Of course, for a sidearm I carried the M1911. I chose the M1A1 Thompson for my long weapon. One of my main reasons was that it used the same 45ACP as my sidearm which made ammo carry more efficient. It didn't disappoint. For combat in the jungle, where you couldn't see an enemy more than 30 yards away at most, it was ideal. You heard them, and bug sprayed the area where the noise came from, heard the scream, saw the movement, and finished with another burst. I saw M16s jam and men die trying to get the damned thing to work. I never had a problem. To this day I won't carry any of the AR type weapons, they evoke too many bad memories. Is the M1A1 a wonder weapon? Hell no. It is what it is, a very effective weapon for short to medium range combat. It got me through my missions and I came back alive. "Nuff said.
I never understood why they called it the chicago typewriter until I had a chance to shoot one myself and it was a magical experience.. Now for a shameless plug when in Vegas head over to Battlefield Vegas and shoot one of these, they also have a B.A.R. which is also amazing. The instructors a Battlefield Vegas are Awesome
@willl 77 Your statement seems born of ignorance. The AR is superior in what way? Accuracy at longer distances? Yes. Reliability these days? Maybe. Ability to use the same ammunition as your side arm? Nope, no way. You obviously have a prejudice for the AR type of gun. Perhaps this is because that is what YOU used in the military. I carried an 03 A3 Springfield in boot camp. I still have a soft spot for that weapon, but in combat I would MUCH prefer the M1A1, as would most WW2 veterans, as is witnessed by the fact that they grabbed them as quickly as they could in the Pacific when the original non-com to whom they were issued fell. For jungle fighting they are an excellent weapon. Each weapon has its own strengths and weaknesses. Grow up and learn that.
+Jeremy lol I see so many comments that got way off topic, from rockets to even the metric system. All the author was trying to do was put some realism in the capabilities of a few firearms with a few tongue in cheek comments.
@@17MrLeon 45-70 is the same price as .308, but the 45-70 bullet is over twice the size (145 grain vs 405 grain average), twice the amount of powder, twice the brass, twice the energy foot pounds (3900 vs 2000 average), and the range of 7.62x51 NATO (.308) isnt much different, if you want to talk powerful bang for buck.

Fun fact: The M3 “Grease Gun” was designed just because of the said weight gripes surrounding the Thompson. It’s a decent enough Submachine-gun, and a competitor well up to the point it needed to be. But, it’s failings prompted it’s designed replacements, along with costs closer to 200 dollars in its initial design. I imagine the M1 variant cut corners considerably to save on money, but I don’t think it can beat 15$ circa 1942. The M3 machine gun of course has its own problems, what with its folding stock being made of wire metal. It also has fixed sights (100 yards) so adjusting for closer or further is a bit of a guessing game. (Although effective range is about that, so not much point in trying to lob .45 acp.) However, it makes up for this fact 8.15 lbs at heaviest when empty, with improvements by its A1 variant making it into the 7.95 lbs range. 2 ish pounds may not mean much to folks, but when you’re hoofing it for a while it adds up. Along with being exceedingly simplistic and easy to replace by their standards. It’s still seeing service today in the middle east. And by western powers as late as Kosovo. So while the Thompson has her place, I’m surprised more people don’t geek out about her successor. I will give the Thompson one thing tho, she has style. I think the Thompson has its place and is fun and fantastic in its own way. But, it has drawbacks and we should be realistic about em. The German rifle: Ho boy, even German infantry bitched about it. Mind you, they had a lot more to bitch about, considering their smoothest to operate rifle that wasn’t cutting edge and reserved for a select few units (Stg-44 cough) being the Kar-98 bolt action and you have good reason to grumble. That gun is NOT superior to the Garand. And I will die on that hill, or not, considering I could hold the mountain with a Garand like my Great Grandad in North Africa and Italy. It may only fire 8 rounds, but it also is easy to operate, care for, and has decent heat treating and parts. The Garand is a mean battle rifle. And while a little heavy, for your average rifleman it had good range and accuracy. It also just feels really good in your hands. So yea the G-43 is quite honestly not all she’s cracked up to be. No issue with the Armalight criticism. And the Soviet gun. I like it for its historical value. That’s it. It’s not a superior weapon, it’s not even all that well made. It shoots, can load, and in a pinch kill Nazis. If you put a scope on it you can maybe improve the accuracy a bit, but there was always a deviation error that most snipers whom modified it had to deal with. For a gun to crap out in mass quantities, however, it fits the bill perfectly. It’s disposable, a stop gap, and easy to make in large quantities. Why else do you think they produced so few of the gun that was SUPPOSED to replace it? The SVT-41 I would argue would have been better if not for its own design flaws and issues with upkeep in wartime conditions. It did well in its role with specialty units, but its difficulty in production made it a liability. Just generally Russian Rifles for those years are less impressive than their Sub-Machinegun counterparts with the PPSH-41 to 43 being excellent weapons by comparison. Although with diminished range, so the Mosin has that going for it; I still find it awkward as a weapons system. Additionally, I’m not sure if I just found a mega small one, or what, but the stock sucks. Of the ones I’ve held, it feels awkward on my shoulder. Would make for part of the Accuracy problem I believe.

I have both a Mosin Nagant 91/30 and an M1 Garand. I purchased the 91/30 and inherited the M1. Both have their uses. You have to take into account that not everyone has the cash for a $1000 bolt gun. Some of us don't have the cash for a $500 bolt gun. That taken into consideration, a $110 Mosin Nagant (mo-SEEN nah-GAHN) _is_ an -excellent- decent rifle in some respects, definitely not in others: FOR THE PRICE: 1. is it fun to shoot? Yep, but it kicks harder than a .30-06 bolt gun. I have a bolt-action 12ga shotgun that has less 'felt recoil'. The steel buttplate does it no favors. The short length of pull will put some people off. 2. is it cheap to shoot? It _can_ be if you're shooting corrosive milsurp ammo. If you're shooting quality ammo the price goes up. And quality ammo can be hard to find locally. 3. is it accurate? Not really, but _acceptable_ accuracy truly depends on what you need the gun to do: Are you punching holes in paper at 100 yards on the cheap? This is the _perfect_ rifle. If your goal is to piss off everyone around you with muzzle blast, get the carbine. Are trying to put lead on a gong at 1000 yards? This is the wrong gun. You'll spend more on ammo trying to accomplish this than you would on a much better rifle. Are you looking for a cheap deer rifle? At the price it was when I bought mine, $119 it definitely fit the bill. You can definitely make a kill-zone shot out to a few hundred yards if you have practiced with the rifle (like you should with _any_ hunting firearm). But at today's $325? Umm... No. For another hundred hundred bucks you can get an inexpensive used near-MOA bolt gun. Oh no - don't tell me you won't get one if you can't get it new. If you're willing to pony up for a 91/30 you're already willing to buy a used gun. 4. But really, is it _accurate?_ OK, you keep pressing this. By 1890's standards and manufacture, the were _impressively_ accurate. Even by WWII they were acceptable, especially for the piss-poor production standards that prevalent from mid-war onward. Even today you can find a (very) few that are probably under 2.5 MOA given high-end ammo or the painstaking task of tuning a hand load, but good luck getting the stores to let you paw through their stock of 91/30s to find that gun. There is at least one video out there of people demonstrating the difference in accuracy of a 'garbage rod' shooting eastern bloc mil-surp ammo and genuine 7N1 ammo. With the 7N1 (IIRC) the guy hit a target at 730 or so yards on the third shot. Bear in mind that AFAIK 7N1 is no longer available. That said, a great many are so shot out that you'd have a better chance of hitting your target _if you threw the rifle at it._ This is the norm, not the exception. But given the choice between which gun to take hunting, the Mosin or the Garand, I usually take the Mosin. The M1 is in excellent condition and shoots about 2 MOA. I don't like to risk damaging it, and M1 specific hunting loads aren't common. Just grabbing any old .30-06 hunting ammo off the shelf runs the very real risk of bending or breaking the op-rod with too hot of a powder. Similarly, the M1 chamber is designed for a spitzer-style bullet, specifically in the 147-155 grain size (depending on construction, though I've heard that 170 is the upper limit as well). Firing round-nose ammo isn't good for the gun - my understanding is that the bullet is jammed into the throat and runs the risk of chamber overpressure. I could be completely wrong about why it's bad, but it's bad nonetheless. The last thing I have to say about the Mosin is this: Even though they have a poor reputation, I've never heard anyone badmouth it on anything _other than_ accuracy, trigger feel, or bolt feel. Yes. that covers a _lot_ of the gun, but I've never heard: "It's not safe to shoot that, even with original loads" (I'm looking at you 1916 Spanish Mauser chambered in 7.62 NATO, marked .308 Win) "You shouldn't shoot it - some weren't heat treated properly" (early Mausers, a few 1903's, some modern firearms) "be careful, it's not a stronger three-lug action" (many rifles this old, including Mausers up to 1898) "It's just not durable" (said no one ever of the MN 91/30)
We shouldn’t forget that the Mosin Nagant and the G43 were mostly made during wartime. So no time for high quality standards and they probably didn’t expect the rifles to be used for so long.

Freddie Ellis the Russians could've armed their soldiers with pistols for gods sake all they did was overwhelm the Germans with infantry, with casualties in the millions for the Soviets by the end of the war
+MajorArtillary Because they were fighting the whole world. The Bolsheviks lost close to 5x as many men to the Germans. Their training was inferior and so was their equipment (at least until Churchill and Roosevelt gave Stalin 150 Billion)
SeverdSeouL Even with inferior training and equipment, they still marched down the Germans all the way to Berlin. The Germans had arguably the best defense of any nation at the time, especially with their machine gun and AT gun doctrines. There is no excuse why they lost. No allied tank could bounce the Flak 88 and Pak-40, and the MG42 was devastating to infantry. They lost because the took on an enemy they couldn't beat.
I think it's more accurate to say that the reason Germany lost because of the fact that their commander was Hitler! he had no military command experience, he refused to listen to his generals, refused to allow withdrawal or retreat and spat his dummy out when things didn't go his way.
Funny thing about the Thompson, my dad did two tours in Korea with the 25th, and he was issued a Thompson, and he was not a fan. Another soldier was drooling over it, and my dad offered to trade arms which the other guy gladly did, so my das became a BAR man throughout his two tours. He loved the BAR even though he said it was pretty tired from already serving in WWII. He said the best way to keep the action moving well in the cold winters was to squirt lighter fluid and set it on fire. That warmed everything up and it fired fine. He even got recommended for a medal because the CO said he was firing so much it caught on fire. Still- I think Thompson's are gorgeous.

I've owned six different Mosin-Nagants because I liked the platform, but I whole-heartedly agree that there are relatively few things that it excels over other rifles in.

ikr. People get so fucking excited over the Mosin Nagant, even though most of the time it's kinda a junky bolt action rifle compared to all the other major country's primary infantry rifles (Primarily due to mass manufacturing demands). Even when it WAS manufactured with quality (such as many of the American made Mosins) they still weren't exactly great, especially compared to other rifles
There were tens of millions of Mosins produced. Many to most are absolute phenomenal shooters that are quite accurate and extremely reliable, however many are also bad shooters that as you said, are worth $85
I own a sniper mosin from 1943 with matching numbers. The wood is full of dents but the bolt is a real bitch. I think it has more historic value than gun value.
I was a commander of a tank team in the army during my obligatory military service. Besides the side gun (pistol) of each tank crew, each tank was equipped with 2 automatic pistols. There were 2 options; 9mm mp5 or 45. cal Thompson. I preferred the cool Thompson, and since then, there hasn't been a day that I haven't had a backache.

The Desert Eagle maybe ? It's heavy, expensive, it has poor penetration and a bad recoil.... Edit : "meh penetration is good" No, stop using games as references, the gun can't even go through a basic bullet proof vest.
Alex EatDonut because they’re so fun. I’ve shot a couple some time ago in the us (I’m British, no handguns here) and shot my first de .50 in Vegas when I was 15, aswell as a .500 magnum. Honestly not bad. The desert eagle was easily controllable but the 500 was like a cannon, but controllable still.
It's a kinda stupid weapon, not really meant for militarily use, its just kind of a gimmick, i don't think anyone designing it expected it to be anything other than a fun gun, they shoot rlly fun the recoil is not that bad, yeah they're expensive, but you should be happy that it's heavy otherwise it'd hurt while shooting. I think the desert eagle was just made as a gimmick and it sold well. I don't think anyone that bought it wanted to use it realistically for self defense or something. Its just fun to shoot, it kinda falls in the same category as the double barreled 1911s. Useless but fun

I own a Mosin Nagant M44, and I'll just straight up say it: it's meh. It was a gift from my dad, so I won't knock it, and I have fun with it. Especially bayoneting shit for funsies, but I will never claim that it's an incredible gun. It sure as shit isn't Mauser grade. But the cost to own/ shoot factor is favorable, and hey if I don't have any ammo nearby when an intruder breaks in, I can always spit roast them :D. All kidding aside, it's an ok gun, reliable, but the bolt is stiff, as is the trigger, and it won't win any marksmanship contests.
you won't run out of ammo considering how cheap the ammo is lol. It's a great surplus rifle. Tens of millions were made so you can't expect them to be the best.

Here is an old saying. The Germans brought a hunting rifle to war. The Americans brought a target rifle to war. The British brought a BATTLE rifle to war, and the Russians brought a rifle to war.
My father carried a Thompson during WW2. He preferred it over the M3 grease gun which was lighter but as he put it more delicate He also said the weight was reassuring and useful when it needed to be used to push back civilians or control prisoners. In close combat such as clearing buildings accuracy wasn't important but easy maneuvering and stopping power were. For suppression fire it was more than accurate enough and accurate fire could be supplied by the M1 Garands. In fact he was a great proponent of sending large volumes of lead down range. As for the 45cal round it had good stopping power out to 150yrds and most combat was at less than 100yrds and could punch through thick underbrush. Both his side arm and main weapon used the same round. He personally preferred it to the M1 carbine because it had a higher rate of fire and bigger mag and as noted his ammo was interchangeable. To sum it up by your standards it wasn't any good too heavy didn't have a nice site or finish okay. But my father chose to carry that weapon because it was the best gun available that would keep him and his men alive. No insult but I think I'll side with my dad
I would have an heart attack if one of my friends say that in my face. Like seriously. Yes, the Lee-Enfield No.4's magazine is removable but you aren't supose to reload like you were shoving box magazines. At my knowledge, removing the magazine of a No.4 is intended for cleaning or something like that. For reloading, you do like usual: Shove stripper clips and that's it.
Dragonslyer yeah in Call of Duty WW2 if you equip extended mags on the Kar98 it uses one of those obscure “trench mags” developed during world war 1. However, those mags would’ve been stripper clip loaded, but in game it’s just removed and replaced like a drum mag
I like the Mosin because it's simple and it shoots a big bullet. I also have a couple bolt 30-06s for that reason. The only reason they're accurate is because 7.62x54 is a pretty decent round for shooting long distance, but so is a .308 and .338 for the same reasons
That’s the shame with the price these days. When they were, it was awesome because you’d get a high-powered rifle and a piece of military history at the same time. Now though, it’s a much tougher and honestly impractical choice.
+TFB TV I agree about the Mosin, and I didn't expect MOA accuracy in a weapon of that price. But, it's fun to shoot, and much cheaper to shoot than a 7.62 NATO/.308. It's very simple and always goes bang when I pull the trigger.
+benchmstr there is a big mix up of confusion on the carbine m43/44, and the full barreled m1903's (if im not mistaken on nomenclature. Mine is stock, and sub MOA, and that's after letting it's barrel rust up with a years worth of corrosive ammo one time. I will still admit ya get what ya pay for on a Mosin, but I find the full barreled ones are accurate at least. Rimmed cartridges are retarded too. he forgot to add that.

You're pretty spot on with the mosin. I do love mine but I get it. One thing though....try the stripper clip again but make sure to run them home to full depth then swipe right with your thumb. The spring will lift the rounds up to the correct height, launching the clip out before you can even get to the bolt handle
Then agian growing up in a world with mp5s mp7s and the uzi style guns you wouldn't know the battle feild uses and very few Americans alive today would
You called the Tavor the worst bullpup in production. Even with how it melts your face, I believe that it would probably be better than the L85A1. It was uh, not great...
Jameson Dymond it didn't exactly fix all the problems. Some of them yes, but many still remain as it jams easily in full auto and the zoomed scope on it has only recently been replaced with something that isn't filled with toxic gas. The L85A2 is far from great.
Those two first guns are my favorite ww2 rifles I own a mosin and I completely agree with you. When I bought mine it was exactly how you said. I have gotten 3 people to look at the action to make it move quicker and with more ease it’s gotten better but still not much better, in the end I just got the mosin because of its historical significance. I just think the G43 looks good.
+TFB TV I'll have to admit, I got a little sad when I saw the Thompson on the list. But when I really think about it, it's just the stories and legend that rifle has with it that make it so great, not the actual rifle. I still think it's hot as, but just not very practical.
"The G43 is like the RX-7 of guns" So if I cram a Garand's receiver in there, it'll work just fine, right? By the way, does nobody notice the irony of an Israeli rifle that gasses you?
+Socks M16 is the worst..feeding issues, jams, stovepipes...fuckin thing would literally have to polish it to work and unfortunately it's main war was the Vietnam war which was dusty and muddy and not friendly towards the m16 especially compared to an ak47 opposition which functioned flawlessly and bulletproof compared to the m16. however the m16 ergonomics and concepts and working functionality moved on to craft the modern AR models and without the m16 never would have come to be. So the M16 was literally one of the greatest stepping stones in the modern world for the warrior, and also the hunter. despite it being a solid assault rifle the semi automatic AR models chambered in .308 instead of .223 are the ultimate gun for modern hunters and wished people would stop bashing AR model semi autos as assault rifles. They are not...as a hunter a .308 being so lightweight, short but still with proper twist and accuracy manoeuvre in tight brush, scope and accessory mounting made easy having the ability to stop and swap optics or iron sights on the fly, or even having a laser point targeting line...as well as rugged versatility...they are the best model ever created for hunters needs. Sadly they are not recognized by such... PS m16 didn't win wars it was lucky to get a draw if not a loss in Vietnam lol...but still totally respect your opinion
***** you are very right there Socks! The m16 is now a historical peice when it comes to an infantry battlefield rifle. That will probably be added (civilian semi auto reproduction of course) to my future rifle collection for that reason. Still on my WW 2 collection build with my Lee Enfield, STG-44 (reproduction not original) and Mauser. Still need to find the French Mas-36. Totally skipping the Mosin Nagant "Garbage Pole" it came from a neutral country so I refuse to count it as a battle rifle, and quite frankly me the look of the Mosin Nagant rubs me the wrong way and even if it had legendary functionality for some reason it just looks ugly as sin in my eyes. No particular reason just bothers me visually...
I forgot to mention the ball propellant that they used that literally has soldiers laying their dead next to their weapons disassembled trying to get the damn thing to work

The "garbage rod" was an 1890-91 design. It literally was there when everybody was trying to figure out what a bolt action infantry rifle was supposed to be. It's almost a prototype that saw 70 years of military service. It is what it is. When fed decent commercial or handloaded ammo through a decent specimen it's a lot better than 5 inches for 5 shots at 100 yards
ver br comentando sobre rifles sem ao menos conseguir uma espingarda sem burocracia é uma pérola. alias, acho que vc quis dizer anytime ao invés de everyday
I may be from Britain, But u can see the 98k is probably the best of the ww2 bolt guns. The clips for the Enfield aren't spring loaded, and the rims of the rounds need to overlap. I'd say that the rifles are comparable in accuracy, and the Germans didn't make use of their rifles as much
@Robert McGuire Well it is true that transmissions on the panther and tigers were overloaded, but they were a fraction of the armor forces of the germans. Nobody talks about the panzer 3s or 4s which were great tanks.
dude ill be honest. for 100$, the Mosin Nagant is a very decent weapon. For 100$!!! Its not a match ar15 or anything but if you get in a 100-200 yard gunfight u can hold ur own
Mike Sokolow I got a 91/30 with matching serials and a hex reciever. I paid a bit over 200 so I certainly overpaid a little, but I would say it has been worth it. I mostly like it for it's look and 'character', and it has been reliable and mostly accurate so far. Definitely has flaws but I love the thing.
Mike Sokolow I think they vary a lot in quality. Some are downright easy to hit targets 400 yards away and some are indeed garbage rods. Especially if you get them when they weren't being mass produced for the war, high quality variance.
How dare you say the Chicago typewriter is a bad gun, it only jammed on me 3 or 4 times firing one stick clip before the sear became jammed in such a way that I couldn’t take it apart so I took it to a gunsmith for an easy fix that only involved some cutting and welding. The gun is horrible and if you want a real tommy gun then you’ll need $30k for a full auto, otherwise you’re buying a $1500 heavy and hard to load rifle with the range of a pistol that will jam constantly and get you killed.
SpiderGamez sometimes you don’t get a gun for efficiency, you get it for just being awesome like a Thompson, why is why they’re so expensive. Getting a semi auto one is like a blowjob with a condom on. I’ve shot loads and never have I had jam in fact.

how's the accuracy on that gun? The German sniper with the 2nd highest kills during WWII used it for a year until he gave his gun to a younger sniper
I used to buy them for $25 each out of a big barrel of them. Sometimes I would swap parts when the gun store guy wasn't looking. I'm not overly fond of them but I hit what I was shooting at and they do hit hard.

I have a model 38 pre-war production, and it's smooth as silk. The wartime production guns were crap, but they weren't going for perfection, just survival.
@sl0re10 think the reason why he used iron sight instead of scope is that he was compromised once due to the reflection on the scope, same thing that likely killed Joseph Allerberger's (2nd highest kill rank German sniper) partner
I always saw the Thompson weight optimistically. When you're out of ammo, you can easily use it as a hefty club ;)

Garbage Rod is a good & cheap surplus rifle, shit I even own one. Definitely not a fan boy of it however. I prefer my Mauser Kar98k ten times over my Mosin, hands down.

I was right there with you, thinking "mine is crazy accurate!" But then I forgot about the grueling time spend figuring out what ammo it likes and polishing the trigger and bolt groups. That being said, after finding preferred ammo to a gun that wasnt neglected via corrosive steel cartridge ammo, and an hr polishing and working the trigger to1.6lb pull, it's the first gun I grab regardless of what I'm shooting for... currently holds 4.5" 3shot groups at 900yrds.
While I bought one for cheap, I would never defend any criticism of it, or count it as a go to if needed. They were a craze due to the no longer available cheap surplus ammo.
Here... I'll drop a little present for anyone who loves their mosin. I've tried this in multiple mosin nagants across the country, and get the same results with each... some being better than others due to bull barrels and trigger groups...
Hand load... .311 dia 174gr Sierra match king hpbt, 43.5 grain varget powder, cci 250 mag primers, chanfer and de-bur the primer pockets and neck, and seat the projectile where its .002 jammed.... biggest group I've seen from this was 1"@100yrds with probably the most abused mosin ever. Its throat and chamber was so worn some of the shelf ammo cases would split on the shoulder.... aside from that one, groups ranged from 3/4" 1/8"....... oh, and this is for barrels that have been cut down to 22"-24" from the throat.

I am a U.S. Navy Vietnam combat vet. in 1971, the year when my missions took place, the Navy still had the M1A1 in issue. Fortunately, due to the nature of my missions, I was able to choose my weapons. Of course, for a sidearm I carried the M1911. I chose the M1A1 Thompson for my long weapon. One of my main reasons was that it used the same 45ACP as my sidearm which made ammo carry more efficient. It didn't disappoint. For combat in the jungle, where you couldn't see an enemy more than 30 yards away at most, it was ideal. You heard them, and bug sprayed the area where the noise came from, heard the scream, saw the movement, and finished with another burst. I saw M16s jam and men die trying to get the damned thing to work. I never had a problem. To this day I won't carry any of the AR type weapons, they evoke too many bad memories. Is the M1A1 a wonder weapon? Hell no. It is what it is, a very effective weapon for short to medium range combat. It got me through my missions and I came back alive. "Nuff said.
I never understood why they called it the chicago typewriter until I had a chance to shoot one myself and it was a magical experience.. Now for a shameless plug when in Vegas head over to Battlefield Vegas and shoot one of these, they also have a B.A.R. which is also amazing. The instructors a Battlefield Vegas are Awesome
Respect.
Also used the weapon….you only had to hit some once…they went down and stayed down….same with my 1911
@willl 77 Your statement seems born of ignorance. The AR is superior in what way? Accuracy at longer distances? Yes. Reliability these days? Maybe. Ability to use the same ammunition as your side arm? Nope, no way. You obviously have a prejudice for the AR type of gun. Perhaps this is because that is what YOU used in the military. I carried an 03 A3 Springfield in boot camp. I still have a soft spot for that weapon, but in combat I would MUCH prefer the M1A1, as would most WW2 veterans, as is witnessed by the fact that they grabbed them as quickly as they could in the Pacific when the original non-com to whom they were issued fell. For jungle fighting they are an excellent weapon. Each weapon has its own strengths and weaknesses. Grow up and learn that.

LieutenantIrsric I am pretty sure it was 666 million Jews.
Fun fact: The M3 “Grease Gun” was designed just because of the said weight gripes surrounding the Thompson. It’s a decent enough Submachine-gun, and a competitor well up to the point it needed to be. But, it’s failings prompted it’s designed replacements, along with costs closer to 200 dollars in its initial design. I imagine the M1 variant cut corners considerably to save on money, but I don’t think it can beat 15$ circa 1942.
The M3 machine gun of course has its own problems, what with its folding stock being made of wire metal. It also has fixed sights (100 yards) so adjusting for closer or further is a bit of a guessing game. (Although effective range is about that, so not much point in trying to lob .45 acp.) However, it makes up for this fact 8.15 lbs at heaviest when empty, with improvements by its A1 variant making it into the 7.95 lbs range. 2 ish pounds may not mean much to folks, but when you’re hoofing it for a while it adds up. Along with being exceedingly simplistic and easy to replace by their standards.
It’s still seeing service today in the middle east. And by western powers as late as Kosovo.
So while the Thompson has her place, I’m surprised more people don’t geek out about her successor. I will give the Thompson one thing tho, she has style.
I think the Thompson has its place and is fun and fantastic in its own way. But, it has drawbacks and we should be realistic about em.
The German rifle: Ho boy, even German infantry bitched about it. Mind you, they had a lot more to bitch about, considering their smoothest to operate rifle that wasn’t cutting edge and reserved for a select few units (Stg-44 cough) being the Kar-98 bolt action and you have good reason to grumble. That gun is NOT superior to the Garand. And I will die on that hill, or not, considering I could hold the mountain with a Garand like my Great Grandad in North Africa and Italy. It may only fire 8 rounds, but it also is easy to operate, care for, and has decent heat treating and parts. The Garand is a mean battle rifle. And while a little heavy, for your average rifleman it had good range and accuracy. It also just feels really good in your hands.
So yea the G-43 is quite honestly not all she’s cracked up to be.
No issue with the Armalight criticism.
And the Soviet gun. I like it for its historical value.
That’s it.
It’s not a superior weapon, it’s not even all that well made. It shoots, can load, and in a pinch kill Nazis. If you put a scope on it you can maybe improve the accuracy a bit, but there was always a deviation error that most snipers whom modified it had to deal with. For a gun to crap out in mass quantities, however, it fits the bill perfectly. It’s disposable, a stop gap, and easy to make in large quantities. Why else do you think they produced so few of the gun that was SUPPOSED to replace it?
The SVT-41 I would argue would have been better if not for its own design flaws and issues with upkeep in wartime conditions. It did well in its role with specialty units, but its difficulty in production made it a liability. Just generally Russian Rifles for those years are less impressive than their Sub-Machinegun counterparts with the PPSH-41 to 43 being excellent weapons by comparison. Although with diminished range, so the Mosin has that going for it; I still find it awkward as a weapons system. Additionally, I’m not sure if I just found a mega small one, or what, but the stock sucks. Of the ones I’ve held, it feels awkward on my shoulder. Would make for part of the Accuracy problem I believe.

First garbage rod fanboy was Simo Hayhä with his pimped mosin-nagant, at the end the 1930s
My guess is the pimped part involves having a gunsmith going over the weapon, cleaning some rough edges etc. Resulting in a smother running rifle

The Finnish Mosin's were not Russian or Soviet built and or made. The Finn's rifles were made by Sako, Tikka or Valmet. Higher quality metal used in the receiver, trigger internals and heavy barrel. The Finn's had superior weapons.

He is comparing to other rifles and he didn’t say it was a bad rifle how ever it is overrated I used to swale by it how ever it does have draw backs especially when compared to say a British enfield how ever it is still a joy to shoot and is a cheep rifle
I was wondering the same thing and then as I own two mosins and really enjoy them I immediately felt personally attacked.
I have both a Mosin Nagant 91/30 and an M1 Garand. I purchased the 91/30 and inherited the M1. Both have their uses.
You have to take into account that not everyone has the cash for a $1000 bolt gun. Some of us don't have the cash for a $500 bolt gun.
That taken into consideration, a $110 Mosin Nagant (mo-SEEN nah-GAHN) _is_ an -excellent- decent rifle in some respects, definitely not in others:
FOR THE PRICE:
1. is it fun to shoot?
Yep, but it kicks harder than a .30-06 bolt gun. I have a bolt-action 12ga shotgun that has less 'felt recoil'.
The steel buttplate does it no favors.
The short length of pull will put some people off.
2. is it cheap to shoot?
It _can_ be if you're shooting corrosive milsurp ammo. If you're shooting quality ammo the price goes up. And quality ammo can be hard to find locally.
3. is it accurate?
Not really, but _acceptable_ accuracy truly depends on what you need the gun to do:
Are you punching holes in paper at 100 yards on the cheap? This is the _perfect_ rifle. If your goal is to piss off everyone around you with muzzle blast, get the carbine.
Are trying to put lead on a gong at 1000 yards? This is the wrong gun. You'll spend more on ammo trying to accomplish this than you would on a much better rifle.
Are you looking for a cheap deer rifle? At the price it was when I bought mine, $119 it definitely fit the bill. You can definitely make a kill-zone shot out to a few hundred yards if you have practiced with the rifle (like you should with _any_ hunting firearm).
But at today's $325? Umm... No. For another hundred hundred bucks you can get an inexpensive used near-MOA bolt gun. Oh no - don't tell me you won't get one if you can't get it new. If you're willing to pony up for a 91/30 you're already willing to buy a used gun.
4. But really, is it _accurate?_
OK, you keep pressing this. By 1890's standards and manufacture, the were _impressively_ accurate. Even by WWII they were acceptable, especially for the piss-poor production standards that prevalent from mid-war onward.
Even today you can find a (very) few that are probably under 2.5 MOA given high-end ammo or the painstaking task of tuning a hand load, but good luck getting the stores to let you paw through their stock of 91/30s to find that gun.
There is at least one video out there of people demonstrating the difference in accuracy of a 'garbage rod' shooting eastern bloc mil-surp ammo and genuine 7N1 ammo. With the 7N1 (IIRC) the guy hit a target at 730 or so yards on the third shot. Bear in mind that AFAIK 7N1 is no longer available.
That said, a great many are so shot out that you'd have a better chance of hitting your target _if you threw the rifle at it._ This is the norm, not the exception.
But given the choice between which gun to take hunting, the Mosin or the Garand, I usually take the Mosin. The M1 is in excellent condition and shoots about 2 MOA. I don't like to risk damaging it, and M1 specific hunting loads aren't common. Just grabbing any old .30-06 hunting ammo off the shelf runs the very real risk of bending or breaking the op-rod with too hot of a powder. Similarly, the M1 chamber is designed for a spitzer-style bullet, specifically in the 147-155 grain size (depending on construction, though I've heard that 170 is the upper limit as well). Firing round-nose ammo isn't good for the gun - my understanding is that the bullet is jammed into the throat and runs the risk of chamber overpressure. I could be completely wrong about why it's bad, but it's bad nonetheless.
The last thing I have to say about the Mosin is this:
Even though they have a poor reputation, I've never heard anyone badmouth it on anything _other than_ accuracy, trigger feel, or bolt feel. Yes. that covers a _lot_ of the gun, but I've never heard:
"It's not safe to shoot that, even with original loads" (I'm looking at you 1916 Spanish Mauser chambered in 7.62 NATO, marked .308 Win)
"You shouldn't shoot it - some weren't heat treated properly" (early Mausers, a few 1903's, some modern firearms)
"be careful, it's not a stronger three-lug action" (many rifles this old, including Mausers up to 1898)
"It's just not durable" (said no one ever of the MN 91/30)
We shouldn’t forget that the Mosin Nagant and the G43 were mostly made during wartime. So no time for high quality standards and they probably didn’t expect the rifles to be used for so long.

Freddie Ellis the Russians could've armed their soldiers with pistols for gods sake all they did was overwhelm the Germans with infantry, with casualties in the millions for the Soviets by the end of the war
That would be a good excuse for the Germans, except they also lost with millions of casualties
+MajorArtillary Because they were fighting the whole world. The Bolsheviks lost close to 5x as many men to the Germans. Their training was inferior and so was their equipment (at least until Churchill and Roosevelt gave Stalin 150 Billion)
SeverdSeouL Even with inferior training and equipment, they still marched down the Germans all the way to Berlin. The Germans had arguably the best defense of any nation at the time, especially with their machine gun and AT gun doctrines. There is no excuse why they lost. No allied tank could bounce the Flak 88 and Pak-40, and the MG42 was devastating to infantry. They lost because the took on an enemy they couldn't beat.
I think it's more accurate to say that the reason Germany lost because of the fact that their commander was Hitler! he had no military command experience, he refused to listen to his generals, refused to allow withdrawal or retreat and spat his dummy out when things didn't go his way.
Funny thing about the Thompson, my dad did two tours in Korea with the 25th, and he was issued a Thompson, and he was not a fan. Another soldier was drooling over it, and my dad offered to trade arms which the other guy gladly did, so my das became a BAR man throughout his two tours. He loved the BAR even though he said it was pretty tired from already serving in WWII. He said the best way to keep the action moving well in the cold winters was to squirt lighter fluid and set it on fire. That warmed everything up and it fired fine. He even got recommended for a medal because the CO said he was firing so much it caught on fire. Still- I think Thompson's are gorgeous.

I've owned six different Mosin-Nagants because I liked the platform, but I whole-heartedly agree that there are relatively few things that it excels over other rifles in.
Used to be, its primary redeeming quality is that it was cheap; you could buy one for $79 and 880 rounds of ammo for $169. Now that prices have gone up, there are better options for roughly the same amount of money.

People get so fucking excited over the Mosin Nagant, even though most of the time it's kinda a junky bolt action rifle compared to all the other major country's primary infantry rifles (Primarily due to mass manufacturing demands). Even when it WAS manufactured with quality (such as many of the American made Mosins) they still weren't exactly great, especially compared to other rifles
Johnathan Bloch the Finns couldn't fix it
There were tens of millions of Mosins produced. Many to most are absolute phenomenal shooters that are quite accurate and extremely reliable, however many are also bad shooters that as you said, are worth $85

My father carried a Thompson during WW2. He preferred it over the M3 grease gun which was lighter but as he put it more delicate He also said the weight was reassuring and useful when it needed to be used to push back civilians or control prisoners. In close combat such as clearing buildings accuracy wasn't important but easy maneuvering and stopping power were. For suppression fire it was more than accurate enough and accurate fire could be supplied by the M1 Garands. In fact he was a great proponent of sending large volumes of lead down range. As for the 45cal round it had good stopping power out to 150yrds and most combat was at less than 100yrds and could punch through thick underbrush. Both his side arm and main weapon used the same round. He personally preferred it to the M1 carbine because it had a higher rate of fire and bigger mag and as noted his ammo was interchangeable.
To sum it up by your standards it wasn't any good too heavy didn't have a nice site or finish okay. But my father chose to carry that weapon because it was the best gun available that would keep him and his men alive. No insult but I think I'll side with my dad

That’s a 50/50 chance of it firing lol
@@the_one_titan good job, you got the joke.
You called the Tavor the worst bullpup in production. Even with how it melts your face, I believe that it would probably be better than the L85A1. It was uh, not great...
Callum Hedges yeah well the l85a1 is terrible the l85a2 fixed all the problems and is great also the l85a1 is now out of production
Jameson Dymond it didn't exactly fix all the problems. Some of them yes, but many still remain as it jams easily in full auto and the zoomed scope on it has only recently been replaced with something that isn't filled with toxic gas. The L85A2 is far from great.
Callum Hedges The “A3” receiver (just the receiver is “A3”) is built more solidly and the internal rails don’t distort.
SvenTviking you have a good point but the L85's reputation has been toasted before the A2 was produced.
@@tyrbaan7295 do you know matsimus? The army guy on yt? He made a video about the sa80
Those two first guns are my favorite ww2 rifles I own a mosin and I completely agree with you. When I bought mine it was exactly how you said. I have gotten 3 people to look at the action to make it move quicker and with more ease it’s gotten better but still not much better, in the end I just got the mosin because of its historical significance. I just think the G43 looks good.
I’m definitely working “garbage rod” into my daily vocabulary.
mosin nagant is great rifle for its purpose. cheep gun for cheep soldiers
Yes comrade!
AYY BLYAT
Well when you have THAT many people why waste time right

I'm going to get grilled for this one 😬
+TFB TV I'll have to admit, I got a little sad when I saw the Thompson on the list. But when I really think about it, it's just the stories and legend that rifle has with it that make it so great, not the actual rifle. I still think it's hot as, but just not very practical.
I will say I disagree about the mosin I have own all ww2 bolt rifle And the mosin can keep up with any them but I do understand it your opinion
you will bro 😂😂
+MrBrandonannette and foxy K31, mauser or smle over mosin
+TFB TV Please please, pretty please, with sugar on top, do a comparison between the Tavor and the SA-80??
The latter suuuuuuuccckkksssss
“Better than a Garand”
*Laughs in American*
"The G43 is like the RX-7 of guns"
So if I cram a Garand's receiver in there, it'll work just fine, right?
By the way, does nobody notice the irony of an Israeli rifle that gasses you?
nothing will fix that kraut garbage
@@jbloun911 agreed
LS swap a King Tiger and you’re unstoppable
@@McMan1ac nah man that shit needs a *DIRTY MAX*
JB911 it was a joke since 90% of RX7 owners swap the rotary with an LS engine
most overrated gun is the m16
but u can get it full auto if u have the money which is cool
+Socks M16 is the worst..feeding issues, jams, stovepipes...fuckin thing would literally have to polish it to work and unfortunately it's main war was the Vietnam war which was dusty and muddy and not friendly towards the m16 especially compared to an ak47 opposition which functioned flawlessly and bulletproof compared to the m16.
however the m16 ergonomics and concepts and working functionality moved on to craft the modern AR models and without the m16 never would have come to be. So the M16 was literally one of the greatest stepping stones in the modern world for the warrior, and also the hunter. despite it being a solid assault rifle the semi automatic AR models chambered in .308 instead of .223 are the ultimate gun for modern hunters and wished people would stop bashing AR model semi autos as assault rifles. They are not...as a hunter a .308 being so lightweight, short but still with proper twist and accuracy manoeuvre in tight brush, scope and accessory mounting made easy having the ability to stop and swap optics or iron sights on the fly, or even having a laser point targeting line...as well as rugged versatility...they are the best model ever created for hunters needs. Sadly they are not recognized by such...
PS m16 didn't win wars it was lucky to get a draw if not a loss in Vietnam lol...but still totally respect your opinion
***** you are very right there Socks! The m16 is now a historical peice when it comes to an infantry battlefield rifle. That will probably be added (civilian semi auto reproduction of course) to my future rifle collection for that reason. Still on my WW 2 collection build with my Lee Enfield, STG-44 (reproduction not original) and Mauser. Still need to find the French Mas-36. Totally skipping the Mosin Nagant "Garbage Pole" it came from a neutral country so I refuse to count it as a battle rifle, and quite frankly me the look of the Mosin Nagant rubs me the wrong way and even if it had legendary functionality for some reason it just looks ugly as sin in my eyes. No particular reason just bothers me visually...
I forgot to mention the ball propellant that they used that literally has soldiers laying their dead next to their weapons disassembled trying to get the damn thing to work
a gun that has a mechanism to eject jammed bullets it's for sure not reliable.I won't say that it is a bad gun,but mass produced m16 are just garbage.
Whaaaat, Liberia and Myanmar put a flag on the moon?!?
Yes they did in deed
yup, they too employed mr von Braun and his penemunde team at some point.
They planted their respective flags on the other side of the moon that the public does not get to see (politics you know).
Neither Liberia or Myanmar use the imperial system - they use the metric system but they're the only 2 countries in the world without an official system of until which for some reason makes people think they use the imperial
The Soviets put a flag on the moon before America and used metric as standard.
The "garbage rod" was an 1890-91 design. It literally was there when everybody was trying to figure out what a bolt action infantry rifle was supposed to be. It's almost a prototype that saw 70 years of military service. It is what it is. When fed decent commercial or handloaded ammo through a decent specimen it's a lot better than 5 inches for 5 shots at 100 yards
I would take a Kar98k, or a Garand, even an SMLE MkIII instead of a Mosin everyday.
Oh, btw, Steyr AUG > Tavor
ver br comentando sobre rifles sem ao menos conseguir uma espingarda sem burocracia é uma pérola.
alias, acho que vc quis dizer anytime ao invés de everyday
The SMLE is a great rifle
MrChristoffer5700 i know m8
I may be from Britain, But u can see the 98k is probably the best of the ww2 bolt guns. The clips for the Enfield aren't spring loaded, and the rims of the rounds need to overlap. I'd say that the rifles are comparable in accuracy, and the Germans didn't make use of their rifles as much

Putting anything german from the second world war on a pedestal...
*distant transmission breakage*
Not a Volkswagen .
so the only german tank you know is the panther and the king tiger?
@Robert McGuire Well it is true that transmissions on the panther and tigers were overloaded, but they were a fraction of the armor forces of the germans. Nobody talks about the panzer 3s or 4s which were great tanks.
dude ill be honest. for 100$, the Mosin Nagant is a very decent weapon. For 100$!!! Its not a match ar15 or anything but if you get in a 100-200 yard gunfight u can hold ur own
BG chal I've heard some guys say yrs ago, you could buy bulk Mosins for 50.00 each. I wouldnt mind an old original in fair shape for less than 200.00.
Mike Sokolow I got a 91/30 with matching serials and a hex reciever. I paid a bit over 200 so I certainly overpaid a little, but I would say it has been worth it. I mostly like it for it's look and 'character', and it has been reliable and mostly accurate so far. Definitely has flaws but I love the thing.
thejamaicaterror Shot one about 6 weeks ago, seemed pretty accurate at 100 yrds. Had smooth action .
Mike Sokolow I think they vary a lot in quality. Some are downright easy to hit targets 400 yards away and some are indeed garbage rods. Especially if you get them when they weren't being mass produced for the war, high quality variance.
Mosin Nagants haven't been $100 since before 2010.
An unfinished concrete floor and too many guns. Looks suspiciously like my house.
What is this "too many guns" you speak of? I have never heard of it.
For country's who haven't put a flag on the moon 😂😂😂😂
At the fact, not only US using the chinese level dificulty system
@neArac irk
Honestly the milimiters are better than fractionals
For countries who think they won vietnam war and use miles 😂😂😂😂
pixelmaster millimeters are for those people here still count on their fingers
How dare you say the Chicago typewriter is a bad gun, it only jammed on me 3 or 4 times firing one stick clip before the sear became jammed in such a way that I couldn’t take it apart so I took it to a gunsmith for an easy fix that only involved some cutting and welding. The gun is horrible and if you want a real tommy gun then you’ll need $30k for a full auto, otherwise you’re buying a $1500 heavy and hard to load rifle with the range of a pistol that will jam constantly and get you killed.
SpiderGamez sounds like you got a bad gun
Floofie kun I have that cheat code as well
@Floofie kun I like that RE4 reference!
SpiderGamez sometimes you don’t get a gun for efficiency, you get it for just being awesome like a Thompson, why is why they’re so expensive. Getting a semi auto one is like a blowjob with a condom on. I’ve shot loads and never have I had jam in fact.
Dude have probably never shot one so Stfu plz an stop complaining
My grandfather was in world war 2 and said there were many platoon leaders and NCOs that would trade off their thompsons for an M1.
My father was an infantry company commander in Italy He was issued a Thompson, but traded it for an
M1 carbine because he felt it was not properly controllable.
That's why the MP-40 was a better weapon because it was light, uses almost weightless ammo, reliable, and almost zero recoil.
@@ironsusgaming540 PPSh-41>MP-40
@@patximartel I'd rather still have ammo and. Be accurate with the MP-40 then waste mags and having to high of a fire rate trying to hit one guy with the PPSH-41.
@@ironsusgaming540 lmfao weightless ammo...give me 230 grains vs 115 any day. Also if you have proper trigger control the Thompson is a breeze to shoot. I actually prefer the Sterling over the MP40 any day if I have to pick a 9mm sub gun.
That was the most passive aggressive warning I've ever heard in my life. Lol
