    • @KaiservonKrieger
      @KaiservonKrieger 7 ปีที่แล้ว +61

      Filip The Stielhangranate or in literal term Stick Hand Grenade was the Germans good grenade. longer ranges for it. but today round ones are used for cqc and very compact. If it were a full fledged war, I'd go with the stick grends

    • @ianh7268
      @ianh7268 7 ปีที่แล้ว +73

      Filip with the handle they could throw it much farther than the baseball-shaped grenades used by other powers, but they lacked fragmentation abilities, and relied on purely the concussive blast, which had a smaller kill radius than the fragmentation grenades. In WWII they started to put metal jackets on them to widen said radius. so it's really some give and take with that design

    • @KaiservonKrieger
      @KaiservonKrieger 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Ian Huffdog Yes that is true. There are lots of grenades with other uses. Like the Japanese grenade of WW2 can be used as a landmine.

    Fun facts: The Steyr-Mannlicher used a straight pull bolt, giving Austro-Hungarian troops a slight advantage. Also, several rifles made it into WW2: the Springfield carried over as a sniper rifle, while the 1938 carbine version of the Gewehr 98 (Kar98k) was common among German troops. The M1918 Bar also transfered over, with updates made in between the wars. In 1915, there was actually an experimental SMG called the Standshutze Hellriegel M1915, made by Austria-Hungary (never left prototype phase). The M1911 did come over, with few changes.
