This is absolutely WONDERFUL...thank you...Exacting detail of all that is happening in less than a second from charging/chambering/firing/extracting...the great mind of John Moses Browning...a simplification of Hiram Maxim's world changing invention...why I love firearms so much...the engineering & mechanics that make this work...
Very cool video. All designed before computers. Astonishing how John Browning could visualize how all this worked. He also gave us the M2 heavy machine gun, still used today, 1911 pistol, Browning high power pistol, Browning Automatic Rifle and others. Amazing genius!
The M2 is an upgraded version of the 1917/1919 action. The High Power is a 1911 with a simplified locking system. All of these things and so much more were in the mind of Browning and on paper before his death. Browning and Maxim were both mechanical wonder wizards.
I hope to get an answer.. What is the benefit of the lock or the small latch inside the extension of the barrel? Why is it called a lock on which part it closes? Please answer.. Thank you
It locks the barrel extension to the bolt so that when the gun fires the presure doesnt blow up the gun. Becouse theyre locked for a split second the bullet leavrs the gun and the pressure in the chabmer is lowered
@@janpostma5381 Thank you, my brother. Your information is close to the answer. I have known this for a while. I have looked at some books and pamphlets related to the 50 cal submachine gun. I have delved more into this weapon. Your information is okay. 🎆
Are you speaking of the spring latch that keeps the barrel from rotating? That is there to maintain headspace as the barrel does not seat on any surface and is free to rotate at any time. The spring keeps the barrel in the set position. In the US guns, that still sometimes walked, so when Israel took over the guns they changed the design to be a much more positive lock. There is also one other lock that is not covered in this video, that being on the right hand side of the lock frame. It locks the lock frame to the right hand side plate.
Why are all of the WWII videos way better at explaining mechanics compared to today? I don't get it. These videos (referencing the car videos, such as the rear diff vid) are too good. I have high hopes for AR, but seems we have regressed.
What is really interesting is how simple it is to convert the full auto version of this gun into a semi auto. Only 2 parts need to be changed, those being the sear and the trigger. You could actually just drop the semi auto parts into a full auto if you cut down the sides of the semi auto sear. For that matter, you can just weld up the sliding surface on a full auto sear and then use the disconnector semi auto trigger, so only one completely new part is required. So in reality, you could take a full auto gun and put the semi auto parts into it, they will work just fine and the gun will be a semi auto. Of course, due to the NFA thing, you do need to make the semi auto gun unable to take the full auto parts, this is done by making a right hand side plate with a block on it that keeps the full auto bolt from going into the gun. The difference in the bolt body is the width of the sear slot. The sear slot in the semi auto gun is wider so that the full auto sear will fall out. In general the barrel extension and lock frame are also altered to work with the denial island on the right hand side plate, but altering those makes no matter.

With apologies to our friends in the UK, the narrator’s voice is really annoying. I think I’d rather sit through a class led by Leonard Lawrence (Pvt Gomer Pyle of Full Metal Jacket fame.) Once he had started down his slippery slope toward total madness, he marveled at the mechanical beauty that made his M14 rifle function, and could easily teach a class in how the Garand system works.
There are a number of oddities here. Firstly, the cartridges shown in the animation are rimless; they could be .30-06 Springfield, the native round of the M1919 or 7.92mm Mauser, the ammunition used by the BESA, another stand British tank MG. BSA made a .303 version of the Browning MG. Why not use that gun and simplify the logistics train? Secondly, the title refers to the "General Grant" tank. Churchill specifically forbade the use of "General" in reference to the American tanks. They were to be the Grant, the Lee, the Stuart, and the Sherman -- nothing else, in case the reference might be confused with an actual General Grant, etc.

John Moses Browning was an AWESOME gun designer.
Complicated, sure, reliable, HELL YES.

Hiram Maxims' gun worked on recoil while JMB worked on gas assist. Very different.
What an ingenious mechanism. Hardly any wear as everything slides or is pushed. No wonder these things work so well.

Actually, Browning was dead before the Hi-Power pistol was even made
@@xboxgorgo18 he started the project though

Great explanation of a great weapon!
John Browning was a mad genius.
I gave up six minutes in because I got a headache. 😕
Amazingly complex system! Thanks for finding and posting this.

Way more complicated than I thought.

thank you in korea
Going by the time stamp at the bottom just seems to be part of a much longer presentation, does anyone know where I can find the full thing?

Because all real scientists and Engineers died.their pupils exist somehow copying their projects.

Amazing for the time
Merci j'aimerais avoir la version française
lookin pretty good for a video made in 2017 haha
You must be taking the piss 😂 the video is from the 40s/50s
Sorry.
it`s the Browning M2 HB??
early version of the 0.303 Browning made in UK, by BSA based on the ANM2/MG40 and others including Canada, under licence
Acton is basicaly the same
Browning M1919A4, standard Infantry and Tank MG in WWII, cal..30, ( .300 for Brits).
The AN-M2 Aircraft Gun was the same design, but all major frame and barrel parts thinner to lower weight. The British Version of the AN-M2 design, the

Who cares
It perhaps was a US training film, but overdubbed for training other countries, hence, .30-06 animation

I would say that this is the case, the base movie came from the US and then they translated it into British from American.
I love the oldies
