PPSh Full-Auto Magazine dumps

The fight was over and I had some ammo left...

Just a disclaimer: This was after the reenactment, we don't normally dick around like this. For some reason, when I yelled, I emphasized the wrong syllable in "Rodinu"- I speak quite a bit of Russian, no idea why it came out like that. The weapon in the video belongs to another member of the RKKA NW, he let me use it for the day.

That's so awesome... If I may ask, where are you guys at? How hard is it to get involved in something like this?

[aceshigh7]

@lamarbrog We are all over the Pacific Northwest, but most of our events are in Oregon (for Machinegun legality). There are units across the country for every side and every war in history. If you interested in World War Two specifically, feel free to drop me a message with questions and I can help get you started- it's easier than you'd think! (I only reenact Red Army and German GrossDeutschland Division, but I'm plugged into the "network")

@aceshigh7 I live in Oregon and I didn't know it was possible to own a machine gun. Do you need a special license or something??

[aceshigh7]

@mkf272

In many states full-autos are legal. You need to be over 21 and the weapon has to be made prior to 1986 (unless you are a Class III Licensed Dealer). It's a long process involving lots of background checks and a $200 federal registration tax. Also, most full-autos are upwards of $10,000. This weapon doesn't belong to me, but a friend of mine who is a reenactor and Class III collector. He bought it before 1986 for $1,000.

If you guys are just going to shoot blanks with your expensive guns why not buy some glass blowback airsoft guns for hundreds of dollars less? Atleast you can actually if you get hit or not

Just wanted to re-emphasize the fact that this was at the end of the weekend. Everyone was ready to leave, but I had 70 rounds leftover and wanted to burn them. Normally I hate this sort of dicking around DURING reenactments, but there's such a demand for PPSh videos on YouTube anyway, I thought I'd put it up.

@iRentallyMetarded

Because this hobby (not this particular video, mind you) is about history, not play warfare. I don't give a shit whether my target "Takes a hit" or not. I reenact so I can be close to as cold, miserable, hungry, and tired as the soldiers actually were. So I can pull the trigger on weapons used *in the actual war* and watch the brass fly, watch the flames lick from the end of the barrel as my ears explode in agony.

@MaineShag55

Weapon was empty, and was loaded with blanks to boot. It's tough to preserve gun safety when all weekend you're aiming real firearms at human beings and pulling the trigger.

[mkf272]

@aceshigh7 Okay. Thanks for the info man.

@Sadisticjellyfish73 *WWII-era

[Sadisticjellyfish73]

@iRentallyMetarded Not to mention GBB WWI-era guns are often at least as expensive, if not more so, then the actual guns. Seriously, look at K98ks and Mosin-Nagants, the gas versions are almost universally more expensive.

[flyboyjr1001]

it is very easy to do this i reenact myself and it can get pricy i use a russian nagant and that is about 79$ us and fires 7.62by 54 round and it uses live and blank ammo and is a good price anyone can do this if you have the money and the time and it is a lot of fun
