It's really great design but so hard to understand

I did not, thats cool!

"The MAG uses a series of proven design concepts from other successful firearms, for example the locking mechanism is modeled on that of the Browning M1918 (BAR) automatic rifle, and the feed and trigger mechanisms are from the WWII-era MG 42 universal machine gun."

John Browning: look what a cool gun I invented! US army: I'm gonna butcher this girl so badly...

nope: barell did overheating...

And really heavy to carry

I've read somewhere that the M1918 BAR by itself, weighed in at around 16 pounds. And, by the time that the bipod, bandolier ammo belt and ammo is added to the equation (25 pounds of gun and support equipment to carry), most guys that had the unfortunate opportunity to lug it around usually ended up losing the bipod somewhere. And, if that wasn't enough, the way that the snap buttons on the bandolier belt was designed, there would be a good chance that the buttons would make an indent in the ammo magazine box if one had to go prone in a real hurry. Thus, there could be feeding issues as the end result. In addition, changing of the barrel was to say the least very time consuming, if not recommended in the field of battle. The M1918 BAR was also one of the preferred weapons of Bonnie and Clyde fame because of it's high rate of firepower.

I Heard the Japaneses Were Train to Shoot the U.S. Marine with the Bipod Rifle First.

and they never walked again

AVicious Hunter They had a Garand time actually

😂

Lmao, best comment thread ever

Ian from Forgotten Weapons dot Com has been uploading some interesting BAR videos lately.

Titanium Rain That has certainly played a part.

Never coincidence: algorithm.

Domen Swedish kg m/38, slightly modified BAR, was rebuilt to 7,62 NATO in the 60’s.

Thanks for reply!

Too bad it served late in ww1

OOW HCAR is best BAR :)

doest serve in reality: was delivered to US troops , in small number, 2 months before end of WW1

fuck off John it's shit compared to the Bren

John ‘Juice’ Shipper what about the A1 or 1922 Calvary Machine Rifle variants?

Im pretty sure that is the modern civilian varient and that they didnt have it in WWII, but prove me wrong...

Cinema 4D

I like Anime No.

CaptainLumpyDog why?

I like Anime Just pulling your leg.

CaptainLumpyDog oh, ok.

"Yes." - I agree.

Стрельба с открытого затвора ! И запирание затвора на ствольной коробке ! Уже масса проблем !

@@vladimirmeshchankin7090 но на картинке то как красиво выглядит!!)))))

I used drawings off the web, and created the models and animation using Cinema 4D.

@@vbbsmyt thank you

No idea, sorry.

Music details at end of video

Big thanks!

No. If you want a belt fed gun, use a Browing MG.

WRONG. The model 1918 had a semi-automatic mode, and full Auto. Please refer to 'Rock in a Hard Place'. The later model 1918A2, which did have a speed regulating device instead of the semi-automatic mode, was not introduced until 1939. This is shown at the end of my video.

This is a good idea. GOOD GOODGOODGOOD also do the HMG mount for it and the AA sights and different ways of mounting it and stuff.... like a barrel change... Idk

Hi. The Rate Reducing mechanism introduced in the Model 1918A2 slowed the rate of fire from 500-600 rounds per minute to 300-400 rounds per minute. The spring and piston introduced a delay of about 0.1 sec between each discharge. In the animation, I wanted to show the operation, so had to slow down the action considerably, but in practice what is actually happening is that the piston is knocked back and then returns under spring pressure taking 0.1 of a second before releasing the sear.

@@vbbsmyt thank you!

I like Anime but why was that mg trouble maker?

송현창 I'm guessing you don't know English well. But I'm not really pointing out 'troubles' on the CSRG Chauchat; only that the BAR is somehow simpler. John Browning's one hell of a designer, eh?

+송현창 The hack job .30-06 conversion by a bad company was where most of the Chauchat being a bad gun came about. It did have some legitimate problems, 1. The open mags that collected dirt, though that's trivial to fix. 2. If you did constant mag dumping it would heat up and jam because of thermal expansion of the barrel which moves back and forth in a sleeve.

D8W2P4 I know both of these already. What I'm trying to say is that despite the already-simple construction that is the Chauchat (in 8mm lebel), Browning's design is somehow far simpler.

+I like Anime Are you 송현창?

lovely brain toaster I wouldn't call it a toggle lock. In the BAR, the bolt is being locked against the solid receiver, but in a toggle lock the bolt isnt being braced behind something.

WRONG. The 1918 BAR was first used in combat by the U.S. 79th Division on 22 September 1918, near Avecourt. And why else would it be labelled 1918.

John Browning began his work on the M1918 in 1917 and the weapon first saw action September of 1918. World War I ended November 11, 1918. So, the technology clearly was from the First World War, not the Second WW.
