- A 3D animation showing how a Kar98k bolt-action rifle works. Cinema 4D was used to create each individual part, as well as animating everything. Substance Painter was used to create the wood stock texture. Corona renderer was used to render everything. This animation took me over 500 hours to create.

Very well said….and true!
Guns, clocks, and engines. The bane of a pre-industrial society.
@@ferdinand5223 Comment on point 😂
If you think about it, the Kar98k’s safety is really intuitive. In the up position, it doesn’t allow the user to properly aim down sights, telling the user that the safety is on.
I mean the right position is the one that's actually being used...
@@perkelator9277 huhjhfffff
There are 3 safety settings. Left allows you to pull the trigger and cycle the bolt, up allows you to cycle the bolt but not pull the trigger, and right stops any movement at all.
The issue is that the firing pin has to be back for the safety to be on - you have to leave it with the pressure on the spring the whole time, which can wear it out.
Well some could argue that's a bit of a pain. Being able to sight up a target and then click the safety off when you are about to shoot is something quite useful.

Sometimes i forget how a gun is an incredible and complex piece of engineering
People who aren't real engineers don't appreciate how much time and effort it takes to make something good and reliable. You need reliable when handling literal contained explosions.
@@red62 engineer this engineer that. Some people just lack the appreciation on things we have today. they don't really put any thought on it that went into making something. but surely you don't have to be an engineer to really know, some effort was made.

They are much like cars, maybe that's a reason they are together in movies and things so much they are interesting

Most comments are saying how complex it is, but compared to most firearms it is incredibly simple, which is really amazing. So much utility was managed to be done with so few mechanisms. Many people could design a bunch of individual machines to do each task, with many moving part, high complexity for the user and in maintenance, and low reliability. Yet this genius managed everything with such an efficient design.
In fact: An amazing, genius engineered mechanism.
As a German design engineer I would say: "Simplicity is the result of maturity." ;-)
@@langbakke9953 The locking mechanism is really simple, for example. Compare locking lugs that have to interface with a barrel extension, bolt carrier driven by piston that rotates the bolt, etc. Instead, you just move this little knob up and back, then front and down again, and everything just works.
Edit: In terms of manufacture, yes on both of those, but like any other rifle there's plenty of other machines and work that go into it. Like you need to heat treat several parts, especially the springs. You need a tap and die to make screws, etc. Some of the parts are probably milled, everything has to be cut at some point. These are all standard.

For something made over a century ago its still quite complex, and every part needed to be machined. And to think millions of these were made too, makes you wonder how many machines the factories went through to make rifles like this.
The Kar98K was built in 1935… how did you come up with over a century?…
@@LazyLizzy706 maybe the predecessor "Mauser 98" was in development in 1900 and came into production around 1910.
@@LazyLizzy706 No the K98k was weapon who was made in 1898.
The weapon is used until now in the „Wachbataillon“, but it’s not used for real fights, for those Germany has weapons like the G36c or the G22 and many others.
@@LazyLizzy706 you do realise it's like 2021 now right? It's not 1980s or 2000s anymore.
The aesthetic of this is simply the best I have ever seen. Respecting the good part of the tradition and supercharging it with today's animation capabilities.
Love this vid. Pretty much the basis of all successful modern bolters, especially Mauser actions and their copies.

One thing I appreciate about these animations is not only how good they are is how much research he must of done to find how each and every little part looks and works.
Even if you don’t like guns, you can’t argue with the amount of engineering it takes to produce one.

For me, it is the definitive bolt action rifle.
Just like a VCR ...
The amount of moving parts that all work together to make it work is genius.
Alongside the Luger, my favourite gun of ww2, nice to see its inner working shown in such meticulous detail.

And the Improved Mauser action is still being used in almost all modern iterations of bolt action rifles.
Old, but not obsolete. 👍
@Aidan Bramwell Combat proven, served in two world wars, and has continued to be used in almost every conflict since its inception by Paul Mauser.
Not necessarily better, but is still a capable firearm in a pinch. Plus you can affix a bayonet....
Very clear explanation, and gorgeous animation!
@Aidan Bramwell age is sometimes just a number. look at the m2 browning and the 1911 for example. still in military use
@@jimmyrustler8983 Is it the same caliber today as it was back then? - I know next to nothing about firearms but am interested in the engineering aspect. Incredible and superbly engineered bit of kit.
I have owned close to 20 rifles with Mauser 98 actions both long and intermediate. Currently I have five I shoot regularly one an all original 1908 Brazilian in 7x57 the others have been barreled for modern cartridges. I also have had several 96 actions from Carl Gustaf to Husqvarna I kept one 6.5x55 Swede. They have withstood the test of time with a little tlc. Outstanding animation.
I’m blown away! I bought a Spanish Mauser a few days ago and this really showed the inner workings! Beautiful!
Thanks so much! Glad you found it helpful :) Would love to own a 98k some day!
