No, that is a Soro Suub product. Because Sullustan heart is on the right side of the body, they are mostly left handed, thus safety being well suited for Ian. They also have somewhat thicker fingers than the typical humanoid. That underfolder even makes sense given the jowls of a Sullustian. Ergos scream SSC and not export production.

@@Valskyr :-DDDDDDD

Yeah, it looks like an MP40 + an STG 44 And an Erma EMP 44

Honestly I'd do the same, I always wanted to mash a mp40 and a mg34 together

That's what many of the guns from the original SW blasters were built from.

Awesome. Definitely a blursed gun

Vanguard

I think some of the original engineers that spent A LOT of time working on something like the Thomspon or Suomi would appreciate how someone has simplified their designs to essentially be a tube submachine gun and yet be modular enough to be adaptable, super cool in my eyes at least.

They would probably be psyched and would want to meet the gun smiths to talk shop.

The Book of Bubba Fett

@@KTo288 Bubba's Feet

This wasn't Bubba. This was John Stemple and Brian Polings deal. I knew John as a kid and know Brian now, I deal with him frequently. John was a brilliant machinist and he made several thousand registered tubes that pissed off the govt when the 86' Ban hit because he got them in under the wire and they tried (and failed) to confiscate them. They didn't want him in possession of over 2000 tubes that were technically machine guns! He partnered with Brian and they came up with the STG which made these tubes anything they wanted. They can be made into tommy guns, mp 40's, Suomi, ultra modern, modular you name it. John was and Brian is brilliant designers and machinists. Bubba has nothing to do with them in the least!

I have to know: are you in love with the fact that smgs are typically controllable on full auto? Because, if one is just semi-auto, they’re glorified pistols with longer barrels and extra weight.

He could drink Malbec and eat steak :-)

@@johnqpublic2718 well, if one is semi only, its practically a carbine, and there are clear advantages to having a pistol carbine.

​@@effynme Nope, I'm an actual german.

@@DualDesertEagle Yeah, it's a Frankenstein's monster of cannibalized parts-kits and over-engineered receivers to produce an 8lb pistol-caliber SMG, that is effectively the _total sum of it's parts_ (that being; unimpressive).

@@pizletwizzler198 So what, if all u wanna do is scratch ur full-auto itch with a clear emphasis on fun this thing is more than sufficient. I really like the rate of fire, sounds like it shoots at about 900RPM or somewhere in that ballpark. And apparently it's still pretty controllable on full-auto too!

4? I think you mean 3 mate

@@swimmerdude299 Its 4. The rear sight is from the Suomi KP, the mid section is from a Model 76/45, the lower section is from a STG 34k, and the grip is of the MG 34 Edit: you can see it at 4:50

@@mikemcghin5394 Laughs in SPMA-T

They are just like the Star's triggers

You are weird

Yes... but they make a lot more sense (to me at least) than those awful progressive triggers!

Not to mention Ian's fantastic ability to describe conflicts like an actual historian. There aren't many who appreciates that when he is describing WWII events for instance, but as someone who came home from a tour to Balkan it's been a blessing when he discusses weapons used in those conflicts.... To this day all I can say about that conflict is that everyone involved was as much a victim as they were a villain. Myself included... So it's incredibly nice that Ian manages to touch on in a way that is both neutral and somewhat distanced.

@@andersjjensen I agree with you 100%. we're talking about firearms here, not politics. Both the Nazis and the Soviets and everyone in between the political spectrum have had interesting guns. I love to have a look at them from a neutral viewpoint.

Eh not realy. In man in the highcastle they use Mp5's wich ya know makes sense given that the HK line of rifles up to the G36 were all based on testing done during the last year of the war.

Just remove "photo" from that and you're good! :P The STG series of guns really are a meme at this point. You can own one legally transferable full auto receiver, but own, what, 17 different guns... but only 1 at a time mind you! :P

If MP40 had a Suomi-like barrel shoud, it would raise it from being the third ugliest WWII SMG to one of the best looking

Blastech industries.

There are some pretty 'cheap' private planes out there. Especially the ones you build yourself. But considering this is an old machine gun, your chances are not very likely.

Don't get idea I could do better...nope I couldn't

Too small. Needs moar dakka.

Not orkish at all. Lacks a bit of that Dakka effect.

@@interruptingcow2418 Depends on how well the drum feeds. But it definitely needs a 300 round drum.

And a built-in rokkit or skocha for a nasty combi weapon surprise.

If i draw gun now (28), it would looks same (or potentially worse ) as a gun i draw when i was 9,

@@EddieRiggsBF3 ha! Same here :)

Probably feels terrible compared to most conventional triggers? Not too sure

I cant recall the name tho of type u have triggers which without selector shoot semi or full depending on how far you pull like aug vz26 and i think even rak

I wouldn't be surprised if with time we've lost appreciation for proper training but if I had to guess, less trained soldiers were panic squeezing the full auto everytime they got shot at and it was easier to separate the controls then train people better. Just a guess tho ;)

I’m going with the assumption that the quality of the trigger pull suffered greatly with this setup

@@roddydykes7053 On a suppressive fire weapon there IS no quality of trigger pull. You yank the bastard in until the ugga dugga starts making noise and then you try your best to direct the narrow cone of tracer stripes onto that thing that you decided you didn't like. Once they have their heads down the light mortars take over while you try to keep the gun pointed at roughly where you last saw the baddies. When the radio suddenly goes "Identify target?" you send another short burst that way. The Germans were apparently economical in their thinking when they decided that it would be a waste to shoot more than one round when doing target identification :P That being said: The Swedes are the only ones who designates these types of weapons properly according to their role... the literal translation is "a bullet sprayer" :P

Just imagine all the things you can do with the leftover parts after you strip a Suomi, an MG34, a Sterling and an MP40 for the parts to build this weapon.

Next up: The STG-7... "This is built from original RPG-7 parts kits that flooded the US market after the collapse of the Soviet Union... Obviously it doesn't shoot original RPG-7 ammo as that would make it a destructive device. In stead it shoots 9mm Parabellum tracer rounds, but it does retain the full auto capability!" :P
