Armament Research Services (ARES) is a specialist technical intelligence consultancy, offering expertise and analysis to a range of government and non-government entities in the arms and munitions field. For detailed photos of the guns in this video, don't miss the ARES companion blog post:

The AN-94 Nikonov is one of the recent series of innovative new small arms coming out of the Russian Federation. In this case, it is an attempt to increase hit probability by firing two rounds before the recoil impulse changes the shooter's point of aim - similar to some of the US SPIW project experimental rifles.
The Nikonov accomplishes this with a combined gas- and recoil-operated system, and a feed system with a third position between the magazine and chamber. When in 2-round-burst mode, it fires both rounds at about 1800 rpm. Normal fully automatic mode runs at a much more conventional 600 rpm, because the burst function can only work for two rounds successively before needing to reset. It functions by using a pulley and steel wire to use the rearward motion of the bolt on the first shot to pull a cartridge forward into position to feed while the internal receiver unit of the weapon is recoiling backwards. The second round fires as the receiver unit reaches full travel, and because the recoil is only felt by the shooter when the receiver unit hits its full rear position, this allows both rounds to already be downrange before the sights move. Contrary to popular myth, the pulley has nothing to do with balancing recoil forces in this rifle.
The AN94 is, of course, very complex and quite expensive. While it was officially adopted by the Russian military, it has not seen extensive service, and is certainly not being widely issued.

Even though they could have won the battle at Kursk if Hitler hadn't have delayed reinforcements to get more of the the more advanced tigers in there and they could have 'possibly won', there was still the fact that the Americans and British Commonwealth were bombing the hell out of their cities and factories. It was a truly terrible time for the unfortunate ppl of Germany(I cannot possibly believe that they were all super hateful racists). But either way the bombing campaigns were so destructive that Germany lost most of their ability to produce arms thanks to it and on top of that their lack of fuel reserves at the time meant they were done already.

@@karlja3ger It is a brilliant piece of engineering, but it's a bad weapon. Because weapon has to stay relevant to UNEXPECTED shifts in engineering. RPG- 7 uses somewhat questionable design of a rocket sitting outwards, which hurts it's accuracy. However, this seemingly pathetic design proved to be future-proof because you can spit out any geometry shape out of it as long as you can fit 40mm tail adapter and it's not too heavy to be shot via 2/4.5kg rated powder charge. In certain conflict in Eastern Europe obsolete grenades receive extras and quite often 80mm mortar rounds are retrofitted for better anti-infantry work. In the meantime, the "perfect" rifle might as well be used as a scrap the moment war has changed... again, because you need to engineer a new rifle.

So they contracted the Galil after they captured tons of AK47 in 67. They had the Galil as official rifle, but never issued to all soldiers, cause they got 60.000 M16 through the MAP from the US in 73 and the soldiers liked them mainly for the low weight and better precision and even more so when they got the M4, so they kept buying them on US credit.

Even the way the trigger drops the sear is incredibly impressive. Pulling the trigger does not simply pull the sear down, but tilts a perpendicular latch, allowing the seat to lower more vertically. The length of the latch could also determine trigger pull distance by taking advantage of the pivoting lever. Wow I will most likely be studying this marvelous piece of engineering in the future, and copying some of its design principles in projects of mine

Eh, the key is instead of just a bolt carrier it has a whole another (spring-operated) gun inside. And that second gun can strip cartridges going in both directions (picking them from a special cache in the mid-position where they are stored by a separate stripper, picked from the magazine). So the outer gun first moves the inner gun forward, has it pick the cartridge on its motion forward, lock in place, then fire in the forward position. Recoil and gas piston move the inner gun back, it ejects the spent cartridge and strips one from the cache (while going in the opposite direction as before!) then locks it and fires before it ends its backwards travel.

@CR BZ Yes, depending how you define "separate". There's definitely a separate system that feeds rounds from magazine into the "prearranged" position - then depending how you look at it and where you draw the lines, either 1 (bidirectional) or 2 (1 for forward, 1 for back)systems feeding from there into the "inner gun" - a fully functional 1-shot spring-operated gun, with barrel, chamber, firing pin, ejector, but not own feed system.

WeedNose Lieutenant all of what you described is assuming they want the weapon for an army. If you’re special forces you might wanna pick the AN-94 because you’re more specialized so there’s no need for simplicity.

Garand Thumb just did a video on this. He and Micah got one on loan and were allowed to shoot 300 rds through it. It's great at 100 yds or less but past that, the groups in the burst mode were getting a bit off. Also, it seemed the two rd burst was sometimes a 3 rd burst. They weren't sure if that was a design flaw or if it's just the rifle being worn out.

Just a note : "ММГ", written on the side, roughly stands for "Identical mass and size model", that can be made through factory deactivation, but can also be built like that from the start.
@MaxPV1981
@MaxPV1981 3 жыл бұрын
One more note: the keyword are the "mass" and "size", so it is usually not identical to real gun inside, but close to it. The main idea is to use it for training or something, but without ability to use most of parts to build a real weapon. The changes are not clearly visible, but critical to work - like bolt changes (some parts can be missed), or barrel ones (like holes and/or obstacles for bullets). So the quality can differs too.

It's factory deactivated weapon. That's a common practice for post-soviet weapon manufacturers. They take old army guns or defective new, deactivate it and sell for civilian market as "ММГ". Sometimes deactivation is done very badly, so you couldn't use that gun even for disassembly/reassembly practice. It depends on which factory actually did a job and was that gun used by army or it was defective new production. Defective guns mostly deactivated much nicely than army ones.
