That sir, gave me a chuckle. I was just watching NK videos on liveleak yesterday, I love how in a row of about 10 MG only every other one shoots, the rest kinda just act like their shooting. It was so obvious, I actually kind of felt sorry for those bastards.

Every time I think about selling or trading my M1's or my carbine because ammo is too expensive or the Garand is too dang heavy etc,etc I see something like this video and it reminds me how historical,powerful and awesome these weapons are. Thanx for putting this up op.

Interesting that by 1943 enough German stuff was being captured and shipped back to the U.S. to make this movie and for other testing purposes.

There's this other US propaganda film for soldiers during WWII about the German MG42. It goes on to tell the troops that it sounds mean but isn't all that and how with simple tactics it was easily defeated.
The military made it because the MG42 royally would **** up anything in it's path and needed the propaganda to get soldiers to charge on into the nests.

cant find the original, but found the documentary

4:08-4:35 is probably one of the best paragraphs ever spoken.

And .30 cal goes through 12" oak trees? DAMN!

And look at the ball go through the concrete wall! And people wonder why I get mad when they use it for paper target practice!

You ever hear two machine guns talking? They both chat back and forth for a while until one runs out of dialogue
