In a Q&A video a month or two back, I was asked what modern rifle I thought would be best for a soldier in WWI trench warfare. My answer was an AR-15, and I got a lot of people asking why. Well, because the AR is a more reliable rifle in really bad mud than the AK.
What I couldn’t show at the time, but can now, is some video of both the AR and AK being subjected to a stupid amount of mud…
At Forgotten Weapons I think the most interesting guns out there are the most obscure ones. I try to search out experimental and prototype weapons and show you how they work, in addition to more conventional guns that you may not have heard of before. You’re much more likely to find a video on the Cei Rigotti or Webley-Fosbery here than an AR or Glock. So, do you want to learn about something new today? Then stick around!
