Larry and the TAC-TV crew visit Obendorf, Germany to take a look at the history of Mauser and the rise of Heckler & Koch. This is a special preview of the extended episodes of TAC-TV. To see more, including all of Season 1 and Season 2 and upcoming clips from season 3 please visit TAC-TV.com
I like how Vickers is loud and clear and to the point no mumbling or BS.
Ad Meliora yeah, shame the content is interrupted with so much "brought to you by" and "stay tuned, coming up next we show you"
jackd787 Someone’s gotta pay for the trip to Germany, the camera crew, editing, ammunition etc.
Love the G3!
that was my service rifle at my time in the Bundeswehr!
I was not a fan.
I was in the danish army.
The HK 3 we had was so worn down that they often misfired.
But if we had new ones it would have been a different story I think.
I was in the army in 1997 and the guns was bought by Denmark in 1975. So the riffels had seen a lot of action.
For more info about the Mauser transitionary rifles between the StG44 and CETME, take a look at my video on the Gerat 06 and Gerat 06H/StG45:

Forgotten Weapons good to see you here

Wow you're here too!
fuck you ian
@@cuckpatroller1153 how lovely
Cuck Patroller How dare you besmirch Gun Jesus 🤬
The G3 is also Hollywood's go-to bad-guy-gun (if an AK is not available).
Especially if the movie is displaying africa or south america.
What about Al Pacino's police character in Heat? Lol. But yeah, I think people tie it to the Iranian G3 as well
@@gustavocastillo9954 That was a FN FNC-80 not a G3
@@VIPK9 Ahh, my mistake, thank you for the correction! I'm not too familiar with FN
@@gustavocastillo9954 one of the heat guys has a g3 nonetheless. cant remember which of them tho

The StG 44 was the forefather to the Mauser StG 45 (M) which later became the forefather to the CETME and G3.
HK G11... My favorite prototype rifle of all time next to the HK XM29 OICW. They also had a machine gun variant and PDW variant of the G11.
+Viper Dagger
Wish Larry showed G11 :/
***** Yea, and play Guitar Hero if you want to be a rockstar.
Yeah, it’s a shame no one ever tried to pick that back up, or something similar to it. I particularly like the detail of a high ROF burst mode so they don’t spray too much but a slower automatic so it can be an effective suppressor without running dry in three or four seconds.

Thanks Larry! I'm a big fan of HK, especially their older weapons like the HK91, HK93, MP5 and P7M8.
Welcome in Oberndorf, Larry
My father used the AG3/G3A3 in the Norwegian army in the late 1980's
One of my favorite VT vids. It'd be just about the best thing in the world to work for HK.
The HK and FN museum is on my bucket list
I have a Remington model 798 chambered in 30-06 and love it. You get the best of both worlds, that legendary Remington 700 series and the bolt action of the 98 mauser.
always enjoy vickers videos. from his training info to his overviews of weapons and history of weapons. I wish he had his own channel on tv. It would be the only channel I needed from comcast
Good man Larry - as a historian of the two world wars, I try to combine cultural and military history, which means knowing a bit about small arms, and rifles in particular. Anyway, this was a succinct, articulate and engaging little presentation - look forward to watching more!
I love the 45 Compact and the G3, but my favorite is the MP5A2. I was issued one during my time in ESU and it practically shot itself... amazing weapon.
By far, my absolute favorite video. So much great info and history.
Thanks for your service and thank you for the knowledge you share. This channel is pure quality.
I just love the G3, its heavy in the field but the stopingpower is amazing
Thank you for doing the history of H&K. It is very interesting to see how and what firearms were made then and now.
Hey thanks. I live in Germany and now have a new museum, I need to visit one day.
OMG Its... its so tactical.. I.. I can't take the tacticalness... its, ITS TACTICAAAAAAAAAAAAL!!!
lol, I do enjoy learning so I'll watch some of Vicker's stuff, but you're right. It's so over dramatic and tacticool. Respect what he did for my country though.
Very good Video! I'm from Germany and I'm glad, that I was able to understand everything you said! You speak very clearly so even people from other Countries understand your Videos! Thanks! :) And sorry if there are mistakes! ;)
Two things to note on the G3 overview.
1. The receiver is folded and seams are welded, then welded to the front trunnion, not riveted. (AK blooper reel?)
2. The barrel is pressed into place and pinned into the trunnion, not threaded.
Good video though. I really love Mauser 2.0 weapons.
th-cam.com/video/XEFALN8D8t0/w-d-xo.html you're right there as we can see in this video.
LOVE IT!!
Isn't it true that the HK factory sits on the original grounds of the old Mauser Factory??
Larry I watch all of your videos and I think you do a hell of a job explaining the history of weapons. But this video is probably one of your best. Thank you for producing that and may God bless you always my friend.
Excellent work like always Larry! You are a treasure to the firearms world.
Larry I just recently acquired a Springfield 1903 3006 sporterized NRA rifle in mint condition. It is absolutely gorgeous.
Too bad it completely misses out on the entire SMG-family except for one or two mentionings of the MP5
I agree. Spent too much time on Mauser. Could have made a whole other episode based on all the Mauser info he gave. While significant in the founding of HK, Mauser should have only gotten a mention
Having just bought a PTR91 a few months ago, I can say the rifle has grown on me a lot despite it’s eccentricities. It is super reliable and rugged.
Please bring back the squeeze cocker model. They would sell out day 1 for ccw. For those to nervous to carry with 1 in the pipe, this is a great option. The P 7 was a fantastic handgun.
ALL I CAN SAY IS SUPER AWESOME 🇺🇸 💯 👍
Hello! Very well made video! Realy from a pro!! I am a portuguese guy, and we had some german light weapons at our armed forces. We had the 98 Mauser rifle, for decades, and our professional Republican Guard Naional, still uses it on parades. e had the Luger in some variats before and after the Republic came up (1910) After the Mauser, we had the H&K G-3 and we still have it today, Along with the Mauser rifle, it fought on our ex colonial war in Angola, Mozambique, where I borned in 1964 'cause my father was there as a senior oficer at our air force, we changed our pistol from the Luget to Walther P-38, untill a few years ago, and it served very well!! As a rifle we had the Fal too, during the colonial period war (1961 1975 ) but the G-3 became to proof better for our mostly non-pro soldiers. Well much left to be tell, but I wont bother you even more!! Thanks !!
THANKS from the UK .
Informative and entertaining as always Vikers. German firearms are some of the best and innovative in the world. Found out a few more things about the K98, MP44 and H&K that i didn't know in this episode.
...Nice Job Larry.!...My Dad would have loved this Episode...
WONDERFUL documentry Learned a lot !
I like how the table is huge cable spool . we have the same type of table in our shop at work .
Uncle Larrrrrry! This is BY FAR, the best video I have seen on Hk. I am planning to build a Hk G36 this year. I haven't seen many people do it but it should be a fun process.
Thanks
Nice Video :3
now i know more about the History of my country ^^
You should definitely look up the years when the Cetme C and the G3 entered production. The Cetme C entered production several years after the G3.
The CETME C was based on the G3, which was based on the CETME A2, which was based on the AME 49, which was based on the StG 45.
I found this video to be super informative. Personally I love the G3 it's one of those Bucket List guns for me, and I'm happy to hear my love wasn't misplaced for this gun.
I'm not understanding why HK 5.56 roller delayed rifles weren't accepted.
The mp5 is widely accepted as the sub gun that has defined the segment for well over 50 years.
Would someone elucidate why weapons like the HK 93 aren't more popular.
Its quite simple actually. The G3 was standard in the German Army until the 90's, the 5.56 variants had existed since the 70's but without being the official rifle of the fatherland they had been back seated. By the time Germany wanted a 5.56 the G36 had entered the contest and the 93's were relics of a time past. Optics and weight savings were the traits wanted and the 93 fails on both. Ever used a claw mount? Nothing about it screams ergonomic. The 93 is an amazing iron sight weapon, but irons are all but gone in modern warfare. Hell the US Army MADE me us a M68 and I hated it.
I appreciate HK even more. Great History.
One of the best video watched. Keep the performance.
Im taking your class in gainville tx in nov thank you larry I mywife and love your tv shows
Awesome video, Germany beauties!
Thanks Hk for having such great weapons! I almost got a divorce the last time I bought a USP 45 lol
I'd stick with the Hk. The Hk will never leave you.
Whys a gun better than a lady? You can put a silencer on a gun.
I have my HK41 that my father bought new in the 1970s. Still shoots like new.
The rule can be looked up on the website of the Duden. It is rule 92 or in German Regel 92.
great series of videos on the history of weapons, mainly after World-War.
What you just said "The first word of each sentence is to be written Large [So that it can be recognized in a larger grouping]"
Great episode indeed. Thank you.
Yep, not one rivet in any roller delayed blowback HK. He stated "No indexing the barrel" and "You simply screw the barrel into the trunnion", you absolutely have to index the barrel for proper bolt gap, and the barrel is pressed and pinned in the trunnion, not screwed in.
Great video (watched it all again with my pops) makes me so happy to own a few HKs along with my other great pistols. Sig, Beretta, Glock, they're all good. I gotta say though in spite of my preference for all-metal pistols, HK is so special (To me) that I make an exception. (Except when I feel like carrying my 1911, of course)
The irony is the US push 7.62 b/c .280 British was too "weak," only to switch to the much weaker 5.56 a few years later. In fact, we hd the .276 Perderson 30 years before that.
All the modern clamor for 6.8mm, (and 6.5,) but we could have fielded such a round decades ago.
bence yılar gecsede 7,62x39 mermiler birinçi kalıtedir 5,56 bu amerikaya pahalıya mal oldu bunuda yönendiren amerikalı izrailer her ülkede savaş cıkarılar sonrada seyrederler
Ah yes, America with its unyielding, proven foresight.
.276 Pedersen (7x51) wasn't an intermediate cartridge; it was a full-power center-fire rifle cartridge, just like the 30-06, except in .276-caliber. Army Chief of Staff General Douglas MacArthur turned down using the .276, citing the waste of large existing stocks of 30-06 already in armories and warehouses. Whereupon John C. Garand redesigned his Garand to use 30-06.
“The relyability this gun (G36) brings to the table”
Ha! Good one
Its true
SO GREAT,YOUR UPLOADS,THANKS VICKERS
Fascinating and very informative history! Recently purchased a Denix (Spanish replica) MP-44 for display purposes (weathered it appropriately) and am still amazed at how advanced the design was and how comfortable it is to handle. The looks don't hurt either -- it is in my opinion the coolest (some say ugliest) looking assault rifle ever made. I guess that comes with being the original!
Best show about firearms on youtube!
The 44 is an AWESOME weapon. First assault weapon.
The operating system on the FAL para uses a similar recoil system.
Just picked up a G3 clone last week. Definitely a good decision.
Awesome show
I`m not a gun nut but this video might have made me one! Great job of showing the evolution of this weapon system. I have a C308, now I`m craving a G3!
Very good stuff Larry.
In German (and Luxembourgish), all nouns are capitalized. This was also practiced in Danish before the spelling reform of 1948
Конечно же, лайк!!! Молодец что съездил, было интересно :)
Interesting stuff..would love to see that museum..
I have a friend that owns a G3. It was a pleasure to hold. Our jobs keep us way to busy to go shooting but we'll retire someday. I'll burn some rounds through it then.
It amazes me that Harrington and Richardson distributed the HK4 and contract manufactured HK33/53 models during VietNam.
So when you are in Germany again, feel free to give a sign :) would have loved to visit the Waffenmuseum with you. Very good video. Be safe
Yes! I frigging love the C96.
Just here for the H&K G3 :3
Outstanding video sir. Soaked it up.
great episode
This is quality stuff, great video! Thanks.
excellent video! I like the way you make videos and please don't stop making them is well ;) regards from Germany!
Doesn't need the music, but it's still an interesting (if not entirely comprehensive) piece of firearms history.
I am glad that they still use Mauser for the hunting rifles.
The name and history that came with it is too good not to make a company out of it due to a war.
Great video. Thanks.
i own a ww2 stg44 the firing pin is bent bad so i have to either have it straightened or make a new one with my mill, and i have 3 ww2 k98's. and a mp40 there all badass guns.
Larry for President
That's what I said. All nouns, names and the beginning of a sentence are written with a capital letter.
You're agreeing on my point.
I own three HKs and they are all my favorite pistols (esp the P2000 LEM for carry), though I have a few that I like as much (SIG P226/229 DA/SA and DAK triggers both, both are great esp if you like revolvers the DAK is for you). Out of all 18 pistols I own, outside of a few choice 1911s, the P2000/P30 and USP series are my favorite pistols.
We shouldn't forget the difference between
1) ch after a, o, u and
2) ch after e, i, ä, ü, ö and consonants:
1) In the first case we use the voiceless uvular fricative [χ], as in Scottish "Loch", German "nachts" , "Bach" etc. 2) Otherwise it will be the voiceless palatal fricative [ç], similar to English "huge" or "human"; you'll need this for "rechts", "sprechen" and "ich". There are some regional differences
Holy shit. Sir, you have the coolest fking intro on youtube. Fking subscribed the first second.
Thanks for the video Larry! I love my USP 45c
The 416 and 417 are HK's line of Piston-operated AR15 and AR10 based rifles.
Great video ..!!
Thank you
Some languages capitalize the formal second-person pronoun: In German, the formal second person singular or plural pronoun Sie is capitalized along with all its case-forms (Ihre, Ihres, etc.), but these words are not capitalized when used as third person feminine singular or plural pronouns. Until the recent German spelling reform, the traditional rules (which are still widely adhered to, although not taught in schools) also capitalized the informal 2nd person singular pronoun Du
What he meant to say was it was the only country to produce a semi auto battle rifle in significant quantities to the point of standard issue and enough to effect the war in large scale.
Mentioning that the K98 is a BYF is cool. “BYF” is actually the code for weapons manufactured by Mauser I believe. My K98, P-08 & P38 are all marked BYF. On a side note about the HK91’s, some are marked “Cal.308”, &“Kal.308”, but the ones that have the factory Woodland camo or Desert camo finish are marked “7.62X51”. Anyone happen to know why the camo finish rifles have the military caliber designation on them & not the “black” finished ones? Good Day Everyone!
love H&K firearms
Great informative video!
Heheh The G3 is folded and riveted around the trunnion. 13:00
You're a bad dude Mr. Vickers, but it's rolled/folded and welded. Enjoyed this video a lot.
Larry,
That's by far one of the best reports on German guns I've ever seen. You know that lately we have quite some problems with the G36.
Anyway, this leaves me with one question: who is the manufacturer of the jacket you wear? I'm looking for one of those.
Andreas Gauckler
I think its a virtuous outdoors softshell jacket
thanks larry, i enjoyed it.
Fantastic vid. Thanks
the GfdS is politically independent and the declared successor of the Allgemeiner Deutscher Sprachverein (ADSV), the General Association for the German Language, originally founded 1885 in Brunswick, Germany. Its aim is to research and cultivate the German language; to critically evaluate the current German language change; and to give recommendations concerning the current usage of German.
Very nice video, but I don´t know if for my low english level or what, I don´t heard anything about the spanish CETME , the CETME rifles are the father of the G3, remember that CETME sells the patent of his rifle to HK. The CETME rifles was created in Spain by german engineers that came after the WW2, later, when the german government was interested in the CETME rifles CETME and HK went together developing this rifles. but before the G3 you can find the CETME models A, A1 and B.
Regads.
He said that when he talked about the G3.
That was fucking superb.
