That does make sense, Forbes.... :)

But...as Nobby says....what's he going to do on 'touch down' ?

Give the defenders a good left/right hook with the thrusters.....Fair enough, that'd put one man out of action.

Luncatic! I'd have stopped well before the first bit fell of, in case the bloody thing exploded.

Completely, and utterly barmy. X_X

Totally agree with your comment, Martyn. (I assume it's not some clever 'camera trickery' or CGI ?)

Indeed so.  Hard to see what the point was.  No modern GPMG is designed to be used like that.  That is why they have changeable barrels.

To show what  a complete frigging idiot he was, John ?

I know I've been guilty of doing some seriously 'daft things', in the past......But that.....

You do occasionally fire with no gaps but only in an emergency. I can only think of Gloster Crossing in 51 on the Imjin River.

I don't know if this has been added before but, just in case:




Part of an excellent series covering many different topics including quite a few on the Napoleonic Wars.

Very well produced and great to watch on the 'big telly' when I can get a look in !

PS., Apologies if this has already been added to the list.

It's Youtube. There are millions of videos you can say that about ;)

The Glosters would've still had Vickers and Brens in Korea would they not.  You can change a barrel on a Bren almost as quickly as you can change a magazine, and a Vickers could deliver sustained fire almost indefinitely. They wouldn't have lasted long if they'd been equipped with this weapon, which on reflection is, I think, a FN Minimi LMG, which is all the more reason for not mistreating it like this.  LMGs are not intended to deliver sustained fire.
