What would happen if the water froze in the jacket would that effect the barrel in anyway
-
This was a really reliable machine gun. the british army demonstrated this by shooting it continuously for 12 hours without a single breakdown.
-
This kind of weapon is why so many WWI boys came home in body bags. Imagine going over the trenches and running straight into the teeth in that. Fuck the generals....

Eight German WWII veterans watched this...

If we are speaking of urine, I read about one of the first gas-attacks on the western front.
Apparently the allied soldiers was caught unaware and they didnt have any gasmasks. I think they were canadians. These soldiers used pieces of cloth which they urinated into and used them as provisional gas-masks. Apparently it worked somewhat but there was of course gas-casulties.

@victinhoemn i dont see how urine would be a bad water replacement for the gun... id say its plausible... if not that soldiers need water too
-
@C2builder i would agree with you as well, but my grandad was an armouer in the army and he said they used to do when in the field....he didnt say it was a good cup of tea tho :P
-
i absolutely adore this gun!
-
so is it better to be shooting with your left eye or just use both eyes?
-
@ponllo007 Deadliest Warriors and the History channel on firearms are extreme shit bro. History channel gets most of everything and I mean EVERYTHING wrong on firearms. They put personal liking before facts.

@victinhoemn There are reports in history that confirm that but I'm leary on the story of British soldiers using the boiling water from Vickers water jackets to make tea. I once took a "spotless" and steam-cleaned water jacket on a Vickers and tasted the water after 1000rds and coming to a boil. Believe me, that was some nasty ransid water. If they did drink it they probrably got sick and died.

i saw this on deadliest warrior and it said it jammed a lot, does it?
ponllo007 4 months ago
@ponllo007 any gun will jam if not properly manned and serviced. I say the Vickers (properly set-up) is one of the most reliable belt fed guns around.
