So, the list includes "... pitchforks, basic gardening tools, cricket bats and kitchen knives..." I can see the riot's casualty list now: 15 badly placed cricket swings that were all for naught, 5 disheveled haystacks, 3 horribly carved chickens, 2 drive by hedge trimmings but thankfully, just 22 bruised human egos lost in the melee!
Basic firearms are not that hard to produce and there are plenty of blueprints out there. The only question is if someone has the tools, steel and knowhow
One of the best weapons that can be used for self defence without legal ramification is a co2 fire extinguisher. A burst from those keep lions , bears and tigers etc at the zoo back.
Great video, enjoyed that, and totally agree with you. Quick point to those who mention guns as always : what a lot of the commenters seem to forget is we may have a lack of guns, but we also don't have to fight back against everyone having guns either, they may well have guns, but they would also have to defend themselves against guns others have, I'd rather defend myself against barely any guns than every person potentially having semi and automatic guns.
Except people who are willing to obtain through shady means and use for unsavory purposes have them. So the average Joe who is probably a bit more reasonable is left pretty much defenseless whilst the nasty folks have them, and so do the authoritarians. So you'd have to become a nasty person or hope you are born into an authoritarian family.

Good video, this also got me thinking, in a SHTF scenario, wouldn't you start seeing more homemade or craft produced firearms as well? (some of the videos on Forgotten Weapons spring to mind, when he and ARES did a video on notorious UK examples such as the Luty SMG and slam fire shotgun etc) I'd imagine that would also increase, considering criminals are already doing just that now, additionally, though likely rarer, in terms of firearms, wouldn't percussion revolvers and flintlocks also be used, considering most of them are considered 'antiques' in terms of current law?
Probably but I'd be careful what I personally say on the subject as we do not actually have freedom of speech in the UK and I really don't want to be giving certain people ideas etc.
Hey Liam, So I just got a GP5 today, And I looked for an FP5 filter, but the problem is that it's first £12. Then shipping to Sweden is £12. Which adds up to like £24 plus fee's and stuff for buying it from the U.K. :| Is there any other filters that works that maybe don't have such high shipping prices? You can't know that. but if you know any other? I've looked myself but I can't find any other filters. :| Thanks!
I was wondering, is there a difference between the black and white GP-5, because i read somewhere that the black GP-5 has asbestos in it even without filter.
How about cars? Maybe not for close-quarters combat or raiding houses, but for something like riots or people on the street it would be pretty effective.
I understand that the US doesnt consider black powder guns to be "firearms" and can be bought and mailed straight to your house. Is it similar in the UK? is it possible to get a black powder pistol? They arent ineffective- they won the west after all.
Yes but it's quite restricted, Shotguns with bird shot only on a section 2 license, rifles on a section 1, which a lot of people won't be granted, I think there's rules on the amount of ammunition you can be sold or own at one time as well.
@@Weaponsandstuff93 I think basic shotgun is actually pretty good for self-defence. I would rather take good ol' double barrel than rifle for home invasion scenario.
One of my thoughts is a commando spading fork, take the fork and D-handle off of the shaft and replace it with a cheap French rolling pin, given you an entrenching tool sized version...
I spent most of my life working in the UK London mostly I've lost three mates to thugs ,and we all know the one thing they the murderers had in common but we can't say it , three good lads killed for no good reason
Man ill tell ya what id wrather been shot than have a big knife stuck i. My head or belly hahaha. What about an air rifel ? I dont know what the law is in the UK but here in the US we hunt hogs and same size game with air rifels. If you can have one id be all over that
*_A.K.A. FALLOUT: GREAT BRITAIN_*
You forgot mean words liam lol
Yes but the Twitter police would not be around in SHTF I imagine.

Totally accurate battle simulator.
i think we'd see a lot of illegal firearms its really surprising how common they are here
Basic firearms are not that hard to produce and there are plenty of blueprints out there. The only question is if someone has the tools, steel and knowhow
Getting bullets is the hard part
@@scg4201is it? here in germany you can buy all the parts except for the powder.
What's the chance that someone would use a flint lock.
Well you can own them without any sort of paperwork so likely I'd guess.
Cap and ball? Or just flintlock? An 1858 Remington revolver is a fine weapon.

This makes me feel very blessed to live in the greatest country in the world! Americans won’t give up our guns! Thank God for the 2nd Amendment!
America is no where near the best country my amigo
😂😂😂😂greatest?
So you'll be constantly fighting other people with guns until you die or run out of ammo.
@@Andygb78 get some more freedom in your voice before you comment on my post.
@@SeekingTheKing Why?
Millwall bricks definitely.
what would you use out of all of those weapons
are machetes easier to get there than auto switch knives?
Yes because automatic knives are banned in the UK.
homemade slamfire shotgun made out of 2 pipes is perfect
Great video, enjoyed that, and totally agree with you.

Cheers, and yeah if there's less firearms floating around full stop people won't be shooting each other with things they cannot get.

@@josephsherman5288 You could always mix some chemicals together.
I would suggest staff-slings, lethal when used in volley fire bro.
crossbow?

@@Weaponsandstuff93 understood, wouldn't want things to be misinterperated afterall
@@Weaponsandstuff93 , never underestimate the density of a politician's skull when used as a blunt weapon of mass disarmament.
The Marines have always used the E-Tool as a melee weapon
For an E-tool to be effective, you have to become a madman swinging it. If that's the only weapon you have available, just remember that.
@@vulgarresponse7080 E tool is a bit of an easier carry tbh.

You'll have to use a rubber washer then and just force RD40 filters onto the GP5.
Spears, knives, machetes, swords, air rifles, bows and crossbows
3d printer and some basic metal working tools my friend. Boom, problem solved. Can't you guys have shotguns, hunting rifles, and lever actions?
I was wondering, is there a difference between the black and white GP-5, because i read somewhere that the black GP-5 has asbestos in it even without filter.
Both masks are identical inside and out other than the rubber.
@@Weaponsandstuff93 alrighty thanks
How about cars? Maybe not for close-quarters combat or raiding houses, but for something like riots or people on the street it would be pretty effective.
How’re slingshots over there? I know the IRA used them a lot in “the troubles” so I’d imagine it’s regulated.
No laws on slingshots etc
You Brits can't fart without your government regulating it.
@@vulgarresponse7080 You forgot to mention wet farts...they will land you in prison in the UK. lol
@@vulgarresponse7080 Of course there's also "belching without a licence"...hung, drawn and quartered for that if found guilty!

what about a crossbow
In the land without firearms, the guy with a 3d printer is king.
Well, you can purchase a firearm for hunting in the UK right?
Yes but it's quite restricted, Shotguns with bird shot only on a section 2 license, rifles on a section 1, which a lot of people won't be granted, I think there's rules on the amount of ammunition you can be sold or own at one time as well.

@@Weaponsandstuff93 No you can get buckshot on a S2
Don’t forget everyone to like the video!
In usa it will be machete; knifes shotgun semiautomatic and maybe bolt rifles if that's all u had backup pistol revolvers
One of my thoughts is a commando spading fork, take the fork and D-handle off of the shaft and replace it with a cheap French rolling pin, given you an entrenching tool sized version...
I don't understand why automatic knives are banned in the UK. Doesn't make sense to me.
Interesting thought, a volley of golf balls as a raider deterrent
Very cool and interesting video
Cheers
Do mp4 filters contain asbestos?
Never seen a lab report so can't say
@@Weaponsandstuff93 that's a shame thanks anyway
im american but still watch the UK videos
I’m glad I’m American
When my ARs run out then it’s my AKs turn then my SKS turn and all the 12 gauges my hand guns are just side arms
good luck from america.
Thank you 🙏
Just we are blessed with second amendment most of us are all good

Bicycle wheels
you can tackle knife crime the american way.
all citizens must be armed with knifes, apply for your conceal carry knife.
In USA SHTF event already happened lol. Aged like milk
