  • Jonathan Ferguson, a weapons expert and Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries, breaks down the insane weaponry of the Counter-Strike franchise, including the iconic AK47 automatic rifle, the FNP90 submachine gun, and the many versions of the AR-15/M4 rifle.
    In the latest video in the Firearm Expert Reacts series, Jonathan Ferguson--a weapons expert and Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries--breaks down the guns of the Counter-Strike franchise, and compares them to their real-life counterparts.

    6:15 The scenario you described did happen in Vietnam with a compromised US sniper who had the bad luck of running straight into a squad of enemy fighters. He was carrying an M1911 and a revolver (I don’t remember the caliber). He immediately drew both weapons and got to business. Would be weird firing 2 very different handguns in a situation like that.

    Until he mentioned it I never thought about the reason for the speed change when you take the knife out was because of a weight change I always just figured that it would be more so along the lines of it being more clunky while holding a rifle/LMG/SMG due to it restricting your arm movement which would reduce your ability to run normally because as much as we don't really think about it how you move your arms does greatly affect your speed while running. Try running with your arms crossed and just see how much more awkward it feels. That being said I do think that it is really all just in the name of game mechanics because realistically there is no way you run the same speed with a AUG as a MP7 IRL.

    A note about the P90.
    It came in different versions throughout the years of production. You can see in the earlier games that it was indeed depicted with the built in sights. The version used in Global Offensive is the more modern version with Magpul style iron sights and a Picatinny rail attached to the top. This variant of the P90 was first seen in Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare.
    This particular version is called P90 TR (TR stands for "Triple Rail")

Some of use cant fire right hand for manu reason (eye, left hand is more handy than right one, ect...).

My friend Dirk bought it from him, then I bought it off Dirk because it's a piece of history as far as im concerned. I dont even play airsoft any more. Last I heard Minh works in Seattle for Valve and still has family in Vancouver and I still have him on Facebook so I should really get the Mp5 signed at some point lol. I was 16 when I met him when he was 25 or so, playing at Panther paintball in the airsoft club called OpFor and BCAC. Hope he's doing well, he's a good guy.
      Minh did all the coding, it was his baby that he worked on while going to college at SFU. His game. Cliffe is the guy who made the sprites and animations, and many of the maps. I beta tested Minh's second game, Tactical Intervention but on the original HL engine, then when the game released it was released on Source. It's not a very good game, but I think you can still get it on Steam. Dang, I dont see it. Oh well, youre not missing much.

    What surprises me more than his knowledge of firearms is his surprisingly good knowledge of videogames.
    And he just spots every detail that there is, the fact that some of the 1.6 weapons are rounded off is a great example.

    A little note on the AWP:
    The one used in the game is actually the AWSM (heh mind the name), the Super Magnum, chambered in .338 Lapua as Jonathan mentioned. The name is only used on CS versions that uses the real name of the weapons rather than the fictional ones.

    • @jharju2352

      The newer Wolfenstein games have mostly fictional weapon designs based on some WW2-era firearms such as the Stg-44, P-08 and the Thompson SMG.

      @@jharju2352 true, but the way (some of them) are designed using those real world guns as a basis is a very interesting bit of retrofuturism.
      The Allied assault rifle in Wolfenstein is shockingly bad, tho, thank goodness its barely in the game!

      @MrGrimsmith 2 роки тому +2

      Killing Floor and Koilling Floor 2 get my vote, for sure. Some real world firearms, some modifications to existing and some "Well, that was unexpected!" options.
      I'd add another suggestion to your list though - go old school. Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory.
