Historical Weapons Shoot The BAR

[AynManRand]

WTF? Why do you assholes get to shoot this stuff?

[Bullitt274]

shotting really?

[jakem1tanker]

man i wish my unit would do that

[speeps84]

The BAR was the original SAW.

[LoneWolf051]

@speeps84 Mondragon actually

[speeps84]

@LoneWolf051 wtf I had no idea the mexicans developed the first automatic rifle

that's pretty cool

[LoneWolf051]

@speeps84 yeah I know, they themselves really didnt utilize it, they were mostly exported to European armies

[TheLincolnWorld]

In a way this could have been the first U.S "assault rifle"

[dudejo]

@TheLincolnWorld

In WW1, maybe...

Personally, I would say the M1 Carbine is closest to that role for the WW2 U.S. Army. It has the characteristic intermediate-power rifle cartridge and light weight. Also, full-auto capability came at the end of the war so it did become a de-facto assault rifle.

[TheLincolnWorld]

@dudejo I didnt know about the full auto part lol

[rllang01]

Is that a huge drain pipe directly behind the firer ? Jesus, take one step back and Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhh

[SnailTrailCunt]

B.A.R. =

Bad

Ass

Rifle

[dudejo]

does the BAR have a rifled barrel?

[rllang01]

@dudejo BAR, the browning automatic RIFLE. Its a rifle ! of course it has a rifled barrel ! Its like you're asking if trees are made of wood !

[dudejo]

@rllang01

no need to be so rude about it. not everyone is a know-it-all gun nut like you.

[Cozmolyne]

Not to say the guy in the video is a bad soldier, but look at how he has to position himself to control the recoil. Soldiers of WWII could fire this thing one handed while be shoving Kar98s up a Nazi's asshole with the other hand without problems.

[MRcalibrecincuenta]

@Cozmolyne Yea because soldiers back then were trained with BARs. I bet you if the Army trained it's soldiers with BARs they'd hold it differently as well. Its a new weapon to him, a new weapon he probably has no experience firing.

[dudejo]

@MRcalibrecincuenta

Meh, it's basically an overweight M14. XD

[Larwenful]

You know if they reequipped the US Army with World War 2 era M1 Garands and BARs they'd still be the best damn army on the planet.

[dudejo]

@Larwenful

It certainly can't get any worse, considering the criticism they've been under these days.

[super64mandown]

@Larwenful We still are lol

[Fishfins]

Bren > Bar

[AGeekWithAShotgun]

@Fishfins

Nope.

Try shouldering a bren, IMPOSSIBLE!

[darthspeaks]

Want to scare the shit out of a few rag heads? Put some of these in a squads of Marine's hands!

[RaptorDiablo]

So ugly, its sexy.

[GeneralSchultz]

such a fat weapon

[KrykoStorm]

That's a weird looking firing stance.

[Aelleor]

@xlifewillcomex .30-06 Springfield. in 1918.

[Vlaxerman343]

why is there an interchangeable barrel on a bar?

[B3dub129]

@Vlaxerman343 they get hot

[Vlaxerman343]

@B3dub129 amazing

[FalconKPD]

You are a lucky soldier.

[michaelrachael]

When does the rmy hold these historical weapon shoots???

[TheAwsomAlex]

nice job handling the kick!

[Banananaish]

poor american soldiers who have to carry this beast

[CREWDOG289]

helmet bdu, uniform acu -----> priceless

[AllofVideos]

I really like the BAR, but it's got just a little too much kickback for me. I have nothing against it though.

[SanekKolesnikov]

Browning was genius...

[HackerAndBootSniffer]

Lol, I have a Weatherby Mark 5 Ultralight 30-06 bolt action with 4 round capacity, and then this, Full auto 20 rounds of 30-06 commie-killing gun.

[cbarsonfire]

Sure made his day.

[TheIrishCreamPuff]

I love the B.A.R. I've shot one full auto and i just love the power

[3Chamberlain]

I'd like to borrow this.i'm going to a justin bieber concert

[Nckcooley]

I'm British, if that matters at all, and I have to admit you can't beat the B.A.R for your automatic, portable Nazi killing needs.

[globalforce]

@Nckcooley How about Bren Gun?

[XXGDUBSXX]

@Nckcooley You don't prefer the Bren?

[barrybolton]

@Nckcooley lol! Awesome post.

[GeneralSchultz]

as a german i must say nothing is so good as a MG42 hahahahahahaha Fg42 hahahahahaha STg44 hahahahaha

[ViolentEncounter]

@GeneralSchultz have you fired them, been in combat with them. cleaned them on the field? come on man what are you results!

[budzin303]

@Nckcooley well thanks but i still think your Bren gun was more prolific and longer lived

[xfinchx]

@Nckcooley bad gimp.

[333Germane333]

@Nckcooley

uhu British guy has a cheeky tongue cause his ancestors were served by the allies.Your Bar is a shitload against the Mg42 which is also portable and not less controllable than the bar.Glad this baby killed alot of you guys feeling strong on their liitle island till they are fronted with german fighting spirit.Check out your roots.50% of you british heroes have got german ancestors who unfortunately mixed with goats and created guys like y.(dont call german soldiers nazis fag).

[Nckcooley]

@333Germane333 The Mg42 was indeed a nice piece of kit, I'll hand it to the Germans you know your way around machine guns. I may be wrong but wasn't being a part of the National Socialist party a requirement for service in the armed forces around that time? If I'm correct that would indeed make the German soldiers of that time period Nazi's, although when conscription came around I doubt they had much choice in the matter. The past is the past my friend, we're allies now. Embrace the future eh?

[ywe3]

@333Germane333 no it was against the law the only nazis were the SS

[Obergefreiter352]

@333Germane333 Being of Germanic ancestry and being from modern Germany are entirely different things. The MG42 is absolutely less controllable than the BAR; that's how it was designed. The idea behind the MG42 was to get as many rounds in the air as quickly as possible, and to do that, they upped the rate of fire, thereby giving up some accuracy and controllability. Not better, not worse, just different.

[50CalTV]

@Nckcooley actually i can, the BAR was a very heavy in effective and inaccurate machine gun which was primarily used for putting bullets in the air

[AGeekWithAShotgun]

@50CalTV

If the BAR was a heavy and innaccurate, why are people STILL using them in hunting applications? Sporter model BARs are still being made today

[Obergefreiter352]

@50CalTV Wow, you just totally eroded any credibility you might have had. The BAR's biggest problem in the light machinegun role was its accuracy; it was too accurate. Generally, for suppressive fire you want dispersion rather than pinpoint accuracy.

[linuxpowerification]

@Nckcooley

yeah but it doesnt shoot many bullets does it?

[classicrocker13able]

It's amazing, although the BAR was heavy, had a small magazine capacity(20 rounds) and overall didn't match the requirements of a light machine gun, it's rated a sone of the most important automatic weapons of WW2. Despie these short comings, it was powerfull, reliable, and a great SAW(Squad Automatic Weapon) and was in use from 1918 through the start of the Vietnam War.

[101andrewj]

@classicrocker13able yeah but if you ask any world war 2 american vet they would rather have 3 BARS or 1 mg42 in their squad and they will all say the mg42

[classicrocker13able]

@101andrewj Yeah, I agree with you on that one, the BAR was meant more for individual short burst while the MG42 is great at keeping heads down with it's high firing rate.

[101andrewj]

@classicrocker13able the bar has larger rounds tho

[csbob2010]

Get an acu helmet cover, POG.

[Shwanzig]

You might want to fix your stance, at least from the angle in this video it looks like you're leaning backwards

[dude444666444]

@twin1010101010 ok so apparently planes are made of titanuim? you stupid fuck theyre made of aluminum... ever hear of aircraft aluminum??? stupid liberal fuck "free thinker" my asshole... you just follow the rest of your liberal friends... fucks like you are the biggest sheep of all... i dont watch american idol or jersey shore you dumbass... And you live in america you stupid fuck! if its so bad and you dont like western countrues move to fucking Somalia! rot in hell bastard

[dude444666444]

@twin1010101010 I'm the sheep? your the dumbass believing all the conspiracy theorists and anarchists tell you! go on google and search pentagon plane parts, go to images and you'll see tons of pictures of the parts of a 757 right there... and yes some of the parts could have vaporized because jet fuel burns way hotter than what it takes to melt aluminum. You naive sheep.

[dude444666444]

@twin1010101010 the parts of the plane are in the pictures dumbass

[opie3c]

Live strong USA, oh and on everyone getting a historical weapon , and being put in afganastan , all I have to say to that is , they started it , and dibs on the M1 carbine

[saints360row]

I've always had a thing for the BAR, don't know why. Who's with me?

[Dboyflame]

@saints360row always had a thing too im only 13 but i know how to draw almost every gun- exaggerating- with photgraphic memory perfection. i wanna remake the BAR and send it to the military. i also love the thompson

[chaz706]

@saints360row It was the first gas powered, shoulder fired, automatic rifle in use by the military.

[kidd912thomas]

@saints360row Clyde Barrow and I couldn't agree more...lol

[neonazininja]

@saints360row me also i have one that my grandfather used all that 30 -06 goodness

[TheSwampcritter]

the 30-06 Bad Ass Rifle

[StupidFuckingTrolls]

@twin1010101010 hahaha sure whatever sand nigger. i live in a air conditioning home and you live in a cave. Yeah the US is going to "collapse". lol

[StupidFuckingTrolls]

@twin1010101010 hahahaha the whole comment made me laugh! Please oH please tell me where you're from so we can get this started!

continue watching Rebbecca Blacks's Friday faggot. Now thats gotta hurt.

[StupidFuckingTrolls]

@twin1010101010 i think the little faggot 12 year old is mad because "Friday" has 35 views. aww you need a band aid?

[shokkandawe524]

@twin1010101010 In no way was I commenting on your ridiculous political ideas. I'm glad you watched 911 Loose Change and now have a view on the subject. I was just saying that if you were going to continue to be a troll you might want to make a more intimidating "trolling profile". I laughed so hard the minute I saw you uploaded Friday......favorite song perhaps?

[TheRockMetalDude]

how did a video of a BAR being fired turn into an argument over tap water, and the fall of the US??

[ChromeGhost0219]

@TheRockMetalDude the internet I swear....

[shokkandawe524]

@twin1010101010 How can you expect anyone to take you seriously when your only upload is Rebecca Black Friday......

[freak8385]

I don´t know about guns at all but that one looks like an M1, or what would be the exact name of it?

[Ttran778]

@freak8385 That's a BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle).

[MetalSights]

@twin1010101010 Lol I'm done here, you're not against the United States or anything they stand for. If anything you support us.

*looks at your trolling badge* Ahh, here it is! Sorry to bother you. I'll let you on your way, /b/ro.

[MetalSights]

@twin1010101010 Oh my God, you are so stupid it's funny XD It feels like I'm arguing with a 12 year old who read some conspiracy internet forums or something. LOL. The US economy is in not-so-great a shape, but it's otherwise fine.

You're the litteraly mentally insane people who believe that flu shots and tap water will control your mind/kill you?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHA­HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HOLY SHIT YOU'RE A FUCKING RETARD. HOW DO YOU DRESS YOURSELF IN THE MORNING, GTFO HAHAHA

[MetalSights]

@twin1010101010 Lol you're a fucking idiot. Stop letting the fuzzy internet videos influence your weak mind, it makes you look crazy.

[911mykidsdead]

My butt can handle more power than this fool...

[Nostro200]

you can see this guys isnt used to heavy guns...

[TheReaper709]

Ah good. A video of a man in military compared to a civilian, the difference in weapon handling is clear, his stance is so much better, and controlled the weapon very well.

[DannyTPAlt]

@TheReaper709 Who cares? It's still fun to shoot.

Plus, not all civilans have crappy stances. Only blonde girls.

[TheReaper709]

@DannyTPAlt Hahaha, yeah that's about right.

[MrBlako]

Anyone know if there was some kind of exctended mags. to the BAR?

[rickcain2320]

@MrBlako

Don't think so. It was always intended to be a squad support weapon, fired in short bursts. Its such a big gun that extended clips would be rather clumsy.

[TheProsecuter]

@MrBlako Actually 30 round magazines were made for the BAR but they were intended for suprisingly, Anti Aircraft purposes.

[WDunnD]

the german Stg.44 was the first true assault rifle.

[jrapcdaikari]

Can they use World War 2 weapons in Modern Regular Army fights?

[MrSilver497]

@jrapcdaikari I really dont think so I love the m1 garand but some new kids(weapons) took their place :(

[MrClaymore666]

Where... no How in the world were you able to fire a BAR in the modern military?

[TheDieHard777]

The first true assault rifle. Or was it the STG44?

[NICKBAWZ]

@TheDieHard777 the BAR was 20 years earlier made (Wikipedia)

[MrClaymore666]

@TheDieHard777 Assault rifles fire intermediate rounds. So no, with the a full sized, huge .30-'06 round, its better than an assault rifle. Its an Automatic Rifle

[TheDieHard777]

@MrClaymore666 That's very true, but assault rifle was kind of derived from B.A.R. Then came "assault rifles"

[rvndmnmt]

@TheDieHard777 Actually, the first true modern assault rifle was the St.GW-44 Manufactured by the Nazis and put to rather effective use against the Soviets. Cosmetically and ballistically similar to the AK-47. The Browning Automatic Rifle was actually (believe it or not) considered a light machine gun despite its 20 round mag.

[GourmetItalia]

@rvndmnmt

Yes, the BAR was really an infantry support weapon rather than what it's believed. The St. GW-44 is the true first modern assault rifle and there was an amazing story about how a squadron of Germans fought their way out of an encirclement by heavily armed Soviet soldiers and back towards their own lines. Can't get any better than that!

[chaz706]

@TheDieHard777 That's up for debate.

It's definitely the First shoulder fired automatic rifle but it used a full rifle cartridge (The 30.06... imagine firing THAT full auto) whereas the STG44 used a 7.92x39mm Kurz round ( similar to the 7.62x39 round). Put the two bullets together and you'll see the 30.06 packs a lot more powder behind the round. It's like comparing 7.62x39 to 7x62x51 (or x54). It's almost comical.

So I would say that the BAR is closer to the first LMG than the first AR.

[TheDieHard777]

@chaz706 Wow! Thanks for all the info!

[MARFORCJTF]

I thought if your wearing the American Flag"especially on your military uniform" you don't need weapons instruction, hopefully.

(in background).

Only in the USA!

[Blade4613]

too bad that has only 20 rounds magazines... in ww2 they should make 100 bullett clip like m60 or something like that

[MrThomPS3]

@Blade4613 A M60 doesn't have a clip it is belt fed.

That would require some modification, and modifying a weapon that works during war isn't such a smart move.

[Blade4613]

@MrThomPS3 mmmh ur right... and how about some extended mags?:)

[MrThomPS3]

@Blade4613 That could be an option, but let's say 10 more round would make a big mag with a 30-06 round.

[Blade4613]

@MrThomPS3 i was only making some ideas because you see that it's powerful and has long range but, low ammo in the clip...

[MrThomPS3]

@Blade4613 I see, would be a monster of a weapon if it had a big capacity.

[Blade4613]

@MrThomPS3 exactly...high damage, high ratio... awesome

[erik818ws]

that gun looks heavy!

[AFSOCbum]

@daveed793 The BAR is so old and unreliable now that I'd rather be given a slingshot.

[csmybuttt]

@AFSOCbum Honestly, no one is going to take a slingshot over a BAR, so it's a win-win.

[AFSOCbum]

@csmybuttt The BAR's from WW2 were in use at the beginning of Nam. They were in such bad shape that the military started looking for replacements like the Stoner 63 and M60. If they were in that bad of shape after 15-20 years, imagine how bad of shape they are 70 yrs later, hence my choice of something else.

[csmybuttt]

@AFSOCbum I mean, some of them still are intact, aren't they? Like the one in the video. Sure, some of the guns aren't probably salvageable, but that's not true for all of them. In either case, I'll still take the BAR.

[Master7770]

@AFSOCbum 15-20? the start of nam was over 40 years ago dude.

[AFSOCbum]

@Master7770 I meant between WW2 and Nam. As in, they deteriorated that much in 20 years between WW2 and Nam, imagine how bad they would be 70yrs later (now).

[hummerskickass]

@AFSOCbum ARE YOU FUCKING CRAZY THAT THING MADE KRAUTS RUN IN FEAR AND I SHURE IT WOULD MAKE YOU DO THE SAME

[AFSOCbum]

@hummerskickass Yes, back in the day it was a fearsome weapon, I'm saying now they are not because they have not been manufactured since WW2 and the ones around today are iffy and temperamental.

[peanutapt]

Old School =)

[UrT1meSlipsAway]

It's only shooting slow because of the model he is shooting. He was shooting, i believe an M1918A2 which has a rate of fire switch. "slow" is about 400-450 RPM and "fast" is about 600-650 RPM

[TwinklesPussMaster61]

Dam that thing shoots slow

[DonMeaker]

@TwinklesPussMaster61 the BAR was designed to shoot slowly, in the attack to preserve ammunition. It was used to keep the enemy's head down, while others maneuver to the flanks and rear, close enough to pitch in a grenade. That tactic was developed at heavy cost by French Chausseur units who taught it to US doughboys in WWI. The French and US used the Chauchat in 8mm Lebel. Rate of fire was about 250 rounds per minute. The French developed a LMG from the BAR with a top mounted 25 round magazine

[TwinklesPussMaster61]

@DonMeaker yea I thought that was the case

[rickieingle101st]

Why is there dislikes on every video i see, how can you dislike this?

[iwasborntohunt357]

Can you believe that this gun is a 30-06?

[0YtsanBlowout0]

On almost every gun video there's a funny comment war waging. Read 'n' laugh.

[J3rEmY17]

I love how the BAR is so heavy you just have to have a good stance and pull the trigger and the gun absorbs its own recoil, I bet its accurate as hell even on full auto, awesome.

[DonMeaker]

@J3rEmY17 The BAR was thought to be "too accurate" not suppressing the entire bunker with a cone of fire, but rather putting all rounds at combat distances into a single part of a weapons slit. The gunner had to compensate by spreading the fire as he was shooting.

[space6011]

why all the hatred? cant we just get along and roast some marshmallows over a hot gun barrel?

[MrOutside17]

hes a bobble head.

[allrightbrain]

@twin1010101010 You don't know me to say that,I probably know more about what you say than you.Federal Reserve-Elders of Zion protocols-Rothchilds-Builderbu­rg-Illuminati-NWO-Georgia Guidestones-Knights Templars-David Icke-Jordan Maxwell-Reptilians-Anunaki-Dav­id Duke-FEMA camps,on and on.What I am saying is that if you think that by informing the whole world of this is gonna fix the world,its not so just enjoy crappy life.The whole cuban hate their gov't and what can they do-learn to think.

[allrightbrain]

@twin1010101010 Oh please,this is a gun video not conspiracy.You people are everywhere-just give it up.

[jozimrls]

@twin1010101010 wow you must be some type of CIA double agent or something to make such an accusation like that................hmm.......­...oh wait ur not........oh and those missing plane parts are hiding in ur ass just how u like it. BITCH!

[coolohman]

@twin1010101010 hey its pretty funny that nobody cares about your comment :) oh yea, fuck you and have a good day

[kargmeister1337]

so thats what the gun sounds like. when the fuck are games going to get the damn sounds right. battlefield already accomplished that years ago, but as for call of duty they to work on it. what a fucking beast of a gun. Reminds me of the movie Windtalkers where chick is screaming and shooting the BAR at the same time. Fucking badass.

[BigMaMaDawg]

how heavy is that?

[theappleexpress]

dont fall in yhat hole behind u

[R0uhi]

love that rifle:X

[xXgamer678Xx]

why didnt we use this more in wwII?!?

[LoneWolf051]

@xXgamer678Xx We did, it was issued 1-2 in every squad!

[MysteryoftheGods]

I don't get it. Where are the dead germans?

[Odin029]

Maybe its because the gun is so freaking heavy or maybe its because the gun is so well designed, but most guns on full auto that shoot that big a round become anti-aircraft guns after a few bursts. The BAR doesn't seem to do that.

[nyclaybreaker]

@Odin029

it does weigh around 20lbs. hahahah

[davesempai]

@Odin029 it's both really. the gun is heavy and the fire rate is pretty low as you can see. helps prevent muzzle rise.

[Striker51z]

well that guy must not really be in the army since he is firing with his elbow up and out.

[s4m112211]

stg44 ftw

[CommanderCooper]

@s4m112211 Post that on a video that actually has an STG44. This is a BAR.

[nyclaybreaker]

@CommanderCooper

he knows....hes just stating his opinion (POORLY) that the stg44 is better than the BAR

[CommanderCooper]

@nyclaybreaker Ah. So, he's more of an idiot than I thought.

[Elblinko1]

@s4m112211 LOL you fail at reading and knowing your WW2 guns, good job.

Nuthing but love. Nice control on that weapon, BTW...

[tina6581]

Their is a wall in Dorking in Surrey that has nine lumps missing from the brick work. it is the result of a hung over GI and a dropped BAR in 1943. The wall never stood a chance lol. But then again nore did the GI. He had been drinking english beer all night. :-)

[bltdonahue]

@tina6581 He was probably Mormon. Most Americans can handle English beer just fine. Scotch, now...that's another matter entirely.
