almost every automatic weapon in the time was prone to overheat with sustained fire. changing the barrel was a well known solution. ok the alternative was a heavy water cooler or a small magazine like the bren, the lahti m26 and so on.

Are you sure its an mg42 or is it an mg3

@bingo_fuel Actually is not wine, but a liquor called "CORDIALE". A kind of "grappa". And Yes, we still have that in our combat rations.

Don't forget, that most of german soldiers were armed with K98 rifles, when american infantry used M1 Garands. Also, soviet army had the best rate of using full-auto guns. They produced 6.5 million of PPSH-41 and 500k of PPS-43. Not to mention 2.5 millions of SVT-40 (it's like M14, but soviet). Only MG-42 was good, everything else was kinda meh.

@@lovepeace9727 What about the MP40 and StG44? The k98 might not be full or semi auto but its still the most successful gun in the world so i wouldnt underrestimate it.

Destroyah MP-40 wasn't the best choice for CQB due it's slow rate of fire. Also, it wasn't better for distance , cuz if we compare MP-40 , for example to PPSH-41, we'll simply understand this - 7.62x25 > 9mm. Also, MP-40 was expensive and kinda overengineered. That's why germany produced only 1 million of these smg's. One wermacht squad had only one MP-40, one MG, one support and 7(!!!) rifles , while soviets had platoons fully equipped with PPSH-41. Idk why germany didn't started to produce MAB-38. This italian gun was cheaper and superior in every aspect. MP-40 is just overrated. STG-44 was great and etc. BUT... It also was as expensive as it possible. I mean, yeah, they produced decent amount of these guns, but at the end of the war they had no ammo even for Volkfsturmgewer's. Also, look at ammo STG uses. Is it looks like powerful cartridge of assault rifle? No... On 200m it not gonna hit anything. Basically, M2 carbine did almost the same job as STG-44...

@@Rene-rs7ms well...k98 was a good rifle, but what you wanna have in battle...semi-auto, M1 Garand with 8 rounds in it , or bolt-action rifle? Also, SMLE 4 was by far the best bolt-action rifle of the WW2, without any doubts.

***** German troops linked 5 belts of 50 7.92 rounds to make 250 rounds belts because that was the indicator of when to change the barrel that took only a couple of seconds for a well trained crew. A training film produced by the US to encourage troops to not be intimidated by the enemy's weapons isn't exactly a good indicator for the weapon's performance.

No worries, I am American, and I fully accept that!

***** Only took about 4 secs to change out. Very impressive gun for early 40's tech.

The barrel change out isn't that bad. For one thing, the enemy wouldn't know right when the change out starts. The gun is fired in bursts so you don't know if it's a change out or just a pause. And they've got their heads down to avoid getting it blown off. So by the time the enemy actually realizes it's a barrel change, you might have a second before the barrel is back in.

@@igorfrid5244 if hitler didn’t maked the fault to attack russia instead of taking over england first we would be still in war

@@DUTCHGAMERNL2 If you think that way you have obviously quite lacking knowledge about this time. The war was unwinnable because of the lack of manpower and the lack of resources. The Soviet Union and Germany where rivals and had both opposite ideologies so a war was quite inevitable as both nations hated each other. The Soviets where just not ready to start a war as they previously killed many high ranking generals, had massive reserve troops which where just not ready to be deployed, and a lack of industrie to support a war. The more time the Soviets got to prepare themselves thw harder it would've been for the germans to win in the long run as they would run out of man and fuel. Additionally to that, the germans hoped that Britain would've just surrendered so they could start the war earlier in the east to prevent a strong and prepared soviet union. They didn't and a long drawn out war against Britain would've ended with a defeat in the east as the russians would've started a war eventually. We can see this all at the first victories of Germany in the east where millions of soviet troops get captured and encircled which shows how unprepared the Soviet Union was. But Germany couldn't finish the Soviets off fast enough, thats why we see that the germans faced more and more difficulties the longer the war went on.

MG-42 can delete ur face

sound of death is STUKA

Goes to show how solid the design is as well. We basically still use the same rifle, with marginal modifications and a reduced firing rate, almost 80 years later.

Loliiten True. One can also see that the reenactment boys either doesnt focus much(after all its just a show) or are not very experienced operating it on a bipod. To keep your groupings down you gotta have real firm shoulder contact. Not only that, but if possible you will dig both boots firmly into the ground to further bolster the pos. Weight is also nice. A platoon commander with some routine would check out the bigger boys in his unit first, see if they can shoot with confidence. You also get the added benefit that it is heavy shit to carry in the field, especially with live ammo added in numbers, which as mentioned you need a lot of. When you get it on a tripod it is a dream to shoot with if your barrels are still good and not worn out. You can then be a danger all the way out to at least 800m, maybe more, even with open sights( the Germans heavy machingun units apparently got scopes, which increase the range even more under favorable conditions).308WIN is a great caliber which can handle some obstacles like branches etc without deviating too much, and wind drift is serious first when you enter 600+m. Not like .556 which will deviate for nothing

@Philosophy is pain I am purely talkin about rof. If you compare 10 MG-42 none of them will have same rof- as a matter of fact- they will deviate quite a lot. 'Favorable conditions' in this case is mostly about temperature, moist, how clean weapon is, what kind of weapon oil etc is used etc etc. Lots of parameters

In Greece here our machine gunners are issued with mg3. I remember my pops saying that it was the best weapon he ever fired, and it was going super fast.

It was a mg not an lmg

i wouldn't call it a LMG, it's more of an medium MG comparable to like an M1917 or Vickers .303

@@guciofilmindustries7255 There are tons of factors unique to every individual firearm that determine cyclic rate. Most machineguns even have a mechanic to adjust it on the fly. Thats why people say "1200-1500rpm", because any individual MG42 couldve been gassed for anywhere from 1200 to 1500.

@@searching616 ?

Its because they put a bulkier M60 main spring in instead of the MG42 spring to lessen rate of fire. Most examples I've seen at these events use M60 springs

There was another reason why they reduced the fire rate. At 1500 rounds per minute sometimes the weapon will not stop fireing until the belt was done even you relased the trigger. Thats one of the reasons why the MG3 has a fire rate of 1200 then this wont happen. I got this info from my grandfather who was in the Wehrmacht.

1985Exorcist666 Firing rates for the MG3 can be 950- 1,200, however with the installation of a heavy bolt a rate of 750 rds per minute can be managed. A higher cyclic rate of fire has its merit against AA missions in which a higher rate of fire produces more rounds per burst area than a slower firing cyclic rate.

1985Exorcist666 Yes you are right!
