@@robertmartin8907 it’s not that they knew nothing, it’s just that they didn’t have quick access to lots of knowledge like we do now so they just made it to where no matter what part of it you knew, you could understand it anyway
That's a really nice model they made for the demonstration. Even in black and white it's much easier to see what's going on than with fancy 3D computer models you see today, which show way too much other stuff in an actual gun that isn't part of the mechanism.
I know right!? I love these old vids. This one kinda reminds me of that "how a differential" works video I've seen floating around on Facebook a few times
A 19 year old in the US is already sexualy active, can buy cigarettes, and has hundreads of hours behind the car. What I'm trying to say is that a 19 year old in the US may already have and STD/STI, has probably started a long road of addiction to a death by cancer, and probably knows the best place to drive the car you gave him/her through a crowd. But they shouldn't know how mechanics work? And as if an 8 year old will carry out a semi automatic to automaic conversion. There are too many helicopter parents now to prevent that from happening.
moncorp1 I mistakenly read the original comment as criticism of the Army and the uploader for providing this information. But you're right, there is no suggestions saying it's wrong, which is the way it should stay.
Lesensketch in a real gun, the energy required to accelerate the projectile is stored in each shell. a little bit of that energy is used to cycle and load a new round. however, nerf "shells" are only "bullets" with no energy stored. so you need to add another form of energy, in this case electricity, to cycle a new round. The electric energy is also used to accelerate the dart. In semi automatic nerfs, you add the cycling and firing energy by hand. it gets stored in a spring and released when you pull the trigger.
Thanks for explaining it in more detail. Thanks to the video I was able to understand that real guns use the energy from the shell's explosion to move the mechanism, so it no longer requires manual action or electricity
The funny thing is that, say in late 90's Nerf full auto designs, they were still fully air powered. Not anything as neat as the new belt-fed NERF guns, but interesting in their own right.
@@klendathusfinest4126 Yeah. Nerf darts don't contain chemical potential energy. Well, maybe just a little bit if you set them on fire but I'm guessing they mostly melt. A gatling gun or more modern minigun does need a motor (or a conscript with a hand-crank) to make it work, though.
@@qoph1988 the motor is needed for a faster rate of fire to rotate the drum, but it's not required for the firearm to function. It's just that you won't be able to achieve such a high rate of fire on a normal full auto rifle.
The problem with some modern 3D mechanism explanation videos is that some are more focused on weird camera angles and look unfinished or rushed, whoever produced them doesn't really seem to care if people understand it or not. I saw a Cat® video about differential steering and the video quality was 240p on their official TH-cam channel, the mechanism could not be visualized well (the explanation was ok) and only through intense research on other websites I found a detailed diagram to understand the mechanism (I am addicted to studying and working on machines). Have a great Day/Night
Trump Knows Best You're Fired! ~ We used to build crossbows in shop and part of the final grade was to take it out and shoot it on the football field. I still have mine. We never had any trouble in that class because if there was, the shop teacher would board you up inside a dog house project for the rest of class if you did cause trouble. I can imagine the heart attack all the weak kneed cunts would have about that nowadays.
For years I was one of those people until a friend asked me to help him with a malfunctioning firearm. It opened my eyes and after watching countless videos on TH-cam I am helping others and myself fix minor issues simply because I now understand how they function. I am NOT in business but I help for free. If replacement parts are needed they pay for the part and nothing else. Some I have looked at were just filthy and hadn't been near an oil bottle in 50 years so I try to get them to clean their firearm at least once in awhile. Not surprisingly, many don't know how.
i love these old educational videos. the fact that its so accurate and straightforward means that i now have a solid reference for when i start manufacturing small arms.
@@Only_God_Is_Allah_SWT Sorry guy, but there isn't anybody wanting slaves today. Well, except for the government. That bullshit was wrong and everyone knows. Having the means to defend yourself and loved ones has nothing to do with slavery. The power to own a weapon is to prevent a tyrannical government or regime from putting you into slavery. Like a locked door only keeps an honest man honest, no doubt. Still something rather than nothing.
@@Only_God_Is_Allah_SWT: Slavery in America was on it's way out due to inventions of agricultural machinery. Starting with Eli Whitney's cotton gin. That one machine did the work of at least 120 people. Next was steam powered tractors that pulled plows far wider than a team of horses could ever do. Further reducing the need for labor. Every horse team needed at least one driver. One modern tractor & plow can turn over the soil in an 60 foot row. One modern tractor & plow can do more work in one day than a guy guiding a plow could do in two weeks with a team of horses. Just look at the mechanisation used to make automobiles. With the current highways transportation of products is cheaper, faster and way more efficient. Cotton is still marketable product. No longer hundreds of slaves needed. Cotton combines can harvest about 800 tons of cotton every day. My grandparents harvested their cotton by hand. A good day was 75 pounds of cotton per day by one person. Slavery was only a form of cheap labor. Just like today cheap labor is needed. As the cost of labor increases and machines can replace humans. Humans labor is replaced, perminently. Remember this when you hear demands of $15 per hour minimum wage. With machinery the fast food industry has eliminated ⅓ of it's labor requirements. Just by putting those kiosks in the McDonald's restaurants you hardly see more than one person at the order counter anymore. Civil War or not slavery was on it's way out.
@@Only_God_Is_Allah_SWT for your information , slavery happened worldwide, involving all races ...yes whites were slaves too..and it was a normal and accepted .tendency through history ...the result of the "way of conquer " where tribes first and nations later fought for power. The American Revolution created the path to destroy slavery for the first time on history declaring that all men were created equal and creating a way of government to organize society and allow law and order, creating a constitution to limit the government's power to control the People....meaning giving the people freedom. Today people like you undermine that constitution and give more power to the government, allowing slavery to come back , but this time the Government are the masters and all the people the slaves...like in Fascism and communism. ...
I finally understand how the mechanism works. It just took an old black and white military training video to show me. Thank you to all keepers of history and the past.

Automatic fire is not complicated, the sooner you learn this, the sooner you can make our government realize that yes, you should still be very afraid of the people.

Very nice vid. Had to show a friend how the systems work, and stumbled on this one, really nice with the large model, alot easier to see what is going on than the vids where people show it on regular guns
back in this days no one lets you pull a trigger if you didnt know exactly how It works so you could manage every problem that you will encounter, nowadays they just told you pull the trigger and It shots. Notice that this is what have happened in every field and now we can understand why new workers need constantly assist from others
Now i really understand how semi auto pistol works...this is better explain than the other video..thnks for this video..now i can build my semi auto pistol..yes.
I don't wanna sound like those people who constantly criticize our modern society and sais that everything was better back then (which clearly wasn't), but where did these type of short films go? They were perfect. When I was trying to understand car mechanics, I often used videos from this era as reference.
This was actually really informative and even fun to watch compared to other videos with cg or an actual gun, wow. Now I can finally survive selling assault rifles to people in the apocalypse.
im not really into guns, but this mechanism is pretty cool. the way it works so quickly at such a small scale is amazing, but the coolest part to me is how the whole mechanism is powered by the bullet its shooting. there isn’t any other energy source to make everything move around, its all from the bullet itself.
'Cause it's good. If you live in the west, most of your good fortunes are still built on WWII by the way. It's just been a long slide into austerity since then, everything gradually getting crummier as the decades pass.
