Not a single mention of the molotov coctail, proboably the most efficient makeshift weapon in the winter war, and in WW2 in general. A bit dissapointing...
Polish resistance during ww2 had lots of improvised weapons. It was a time when you could find a lathe and milling machine just by walking into any basement so it wasnt too difficult to fabricate guns.
In the first Gulf war we had 5 ton dumps. We welded pickets to the sides and made walls to fill with sand bags for protection. 5 ton dump could take the weight and we opened fire on it to test the walls with M16/60. Worked very well. Downside, had to remove everything and grind off welds before shipped back. Betsy was retired soon after returning to Ft Bragg
My dad finished his degree in chemical science and after that came the Croatian war for independence . Due to his knowledge in chemistry at the start of the war, he was making makeshift explosives for our army because we had almost no guns/explosives and so on. Our military consisted of police weapons and DIY explosives. He told me that one way they made the explosives effective was putting nails and screws into the device for piercing power. They had to make do with what they had available so they used anything with the potential to go boom such as fertilizer and so on. When I asked him if he could tell me detailed information on how everything was made he told me maybe one day when you get older I'll show you my notebook where I wrote down the recipes for all kinds of explosives(I was around 10 then). Tbh, I have totally forgotten about it till today, might have to ask him one of these days. As you can imagine a country that didn't have weapons like assault rifles and similar they didn't have armored vehicles either. They made makeshift armor vehicles from tractors that had welded plates to them to prevent piercing artillery. To any Croats or Serbians, please don't fight or harass each other in the comments, this was only posted so people who are interested in this theme can get a glimpse into guerilla DIY tactics that sometimes have to be used in war.
That primitive trench knife wasn't made from two pieces. It was a single long piece of an iron stake. Armies back then had blacksmiths. Placed further back from the Front, these men heated one end to put a crude but effective sharp tip and edge on the stake. With the rear portion heated and bent into a knuckle guard.
You guys should do a video on the Warsaw uprising. They made improvised explosives and salvaged as many weapons as they could, it was a courageous act, and a brutal, harrowing story of oppression and resistance. It's 100% worth covering. Ha! I wrote this before watching, I didn't know you were going to mention it in this, but I'm glad you did, and I thought you may.
Just a little disappointed that we didn't see the AN/M2 Stinger, a modified .30-06 aircraft machine gun, with an M1 Garand stock and trigger group bolted to the back. 1,200 rpm of put out a lot of hate, really, really quickly. Accuracy was often less of an issue, because of the simple volume of fire.
Atomized Fuel Explosive devices are the most powerful weapons next to nuclear I once read. Heard a gallon of fuel and a couple pounds of high order explosives can take down any bridge anywhere...
Love this channel, been following it since one of the first ever videos about chocolate!

The amount of DIY equipment that we think up in combat still to this day is amazing. Warfighters aren’t warfighters if they aren’t consistently working to gain an edge against their enemy and terrain. I must say that our terrorist opponents are far more resourceful in their DIY equipment.
the accuracy of a weapon in practical use depends on both the ability of the weapon to put rounds where it's pointing and the ability of the shooter to point the gun where they want bullets to go. scopes magnify your view through them which allows you to make more precise adjustments to your aim which in turn enables increased accuracy. it's not so much the weapon that's inherently more accurate as it is the shooter being able to more accurately aim the weapon.
'Another peasant weapon' along with the scythe and sickle was the pitchfork, especially the 2 or 3 pronged version. No one would like to be found stealing or rustling by an angry farmer with pitchfork in hand.
When Israel uses barrel bombs They had no one to help them (except for the west) When Syria uses barrel bombs The dictator bombs the rebels twice to ensure maximum casualties
Right!.they are making excuses that they want democracy but in reality they wanted to remove Assad for the sake of oil Scince the us already did this to Saddam Hussein and mummar ghaddafi
That isn't true. The polish WZ 35 "Urugay" anti tank rifle was able to pnetrate any german tank at the time it was introduced to service in 1939. It was the only actual anti tank weapon Polish infantry had back then.
The last entry about the birth of Karate by Okinawa's farmers has been proven false repeatedly. Karate was developed by members of the upper classes in Okinawa and meant to be used by bodyguards. It was not developed by farmers.

Infographics has done an episode on that gun before, called the gun made from three other guns. ;)
I'm not sure if Zaytsev's rifle counts as a DIY weapon, considering all he did was fit a scope to it. Don't get me wrong though, it's still very cool.
PTRS is also anti tank rifle
Shut up

Yay fallout 4 mention

Adding a scope doesnt make a weapon more accurate. Either it is accurate or it is not accurate to begin with.
Yes but they ment you sre able too be More accurate
the accuracy of a weapon in practical use depends on both the ability of the weapon to put rounds where it's pointing and the ability of the shooter to point the gun where they want bullets to go. scopes magnify your view through them which allows you to make more precise adjustments to your aim which in turn enables increased accuracy. it's not so much the weapon that's inherently more accurate as it is the shooter being able to more accurately aim the weapon.
Thank you.👍
I swear in every war we get creative and make vehicles, weapons and other devices which go beyond conventional weapons.
Tbh, i wish there was a ww2/post apocalyptic gamefor example where you could make your own weapons, completely customizable from whatever you find.
Hope everyone reading this has a good day!
