Not going to watch the.video. was he atleast holding an AR? Since 99% of the ar brakes are to intimidate poorfags

The video was fine.

He explained the concept of a muzzle break in a perfectly acceptable manner.

Fuddlore aside, he kept himself from saying Spandau so it's alright.

Really nigger? They have a huge amount of deacts. Their demilling process is literally to clip the firing pin, weld the hole, and them drill holes in the barrel.

What are you all breaking the muzzle with? A hammer?

Why the hate for "Barrel Break"
its not the "correct" term but it kind of makes sense, after all it is where the barrel breaks off

> Tile of the video contains the correct spelling
> OP still spells it wrong while bitching about who's an idiot

>>32334497
Maybe first of his firearms video that I didn't have any major disagreements with. I wish he had dealt with his muzzle brake / barrel brake confusion off the camera but other than that he's pretty much on point. He did not imply that muzzlebrake was for intimidation, that's the faggot OP making schles own interpretations. The reason for the germans retreat was left open. My guess is "Gott im himmel! Ein of uns lit up like a Streichholz, driver reverse!" and that's why they retreated..

Infact my only major disagreement was very technical. The potrayal of the muzzlebrake operation principle was rather flawed. The projectile doesn't need to block the hole in the muzzlebrake for it to work. The hole for the projectile can and in most cases should be very much larger than the projectile itself. Firstly the projectile is not needed to seal the path for the expanding gasses (gasses expand in spherical geometry in open air) and secondly doing so can harm the accuracy/precision greatly due to incompletely combusted propellant or just fuckups in the machining or alignment of the muzzlebrake and bore. Although if you can make the brake with tighter hole without affecting the accuracy the brake gains efficiency as more of the gas is forced out the sides.

Tyson is way worse though. His ego is huge and he tries to dominate conversations and yells over people. Lloyd is just a weird academic who films videos in his flat.

To me his biggest issue is he's way to biased towards Britain. He's got a huge hard on for the former British empire and if anything happens the British are either responsible, did it better, or did it first but were just too low key. If you watch his content it becomes pretty obvious. When a topic comes up that I know he'll get all "RULE BRITANIA" on I just skip it.

Spandau referred to the MG 08/15.

>>32335105
I saw Ian at a grocery store in near the Julia Auction House yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything. He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?” I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

It says some British troops referred to them as spandau, I wouldn't start referring to them as such because of a rare nickname. "Spandau" was a nickname that actually gained some fairly common use for the MG 08/15 during WWI from soldiers of different nations.

It would be somewhat deceptive to claim that the MG-42 or the 34 (completely different weapons) shared a nickname that no one ever really used for them.

>23 minute video on muzzle breaks
>gets it wrong

Oh lord.

>>32335273
What exactly did he get wrong?

>>32335267
There were literally massive labor camps across Europe built by the Germans where Jews, political dissidents, and laborers taken from the east worked under unsanitary conditions, and without adequate food or shelter. They made a lot of equipment in these facilities, everything to boots to rifles. Whether or not you believe the intent of the facilities was part of a program of targeted extermination against ethnic groups or a program to produce desperately needed equipment and supplies (where conditions lead widespread death workers), they existed and were instrumental to the German war effort.

>>32335296
Reducing recoil may be a benefit of muzzle brakes on small arms. On tank cannons and large artillery pieces, the primary purpose is to improve accuracy. On big guns you can improve muzzle velocity by increasing barrel length, so you get more energy from the expanding gases. But as the barrel reaches its effective length limit, those expanding gases become uneven in pressure, and you start to lose accuracy. By putting on a muzzle brake, the uneven nature of the gases is dissipated instantly just before the muzzle, and the shells become demonstrable more accuracy on the test range. If Lindybeige explains this, then my bad, I didn't watch it all the way through.

>>32335350
Reducing recoil is important even on tanks and artillery. Lower recoil means whatever mechanism is supporting the gun does not need to be as strong. In tanks, this is essential because turret space is very limited. The lighter you can make the gun, the less turret space you need. Also means less wear-and-tear on whatever recoil system you use.

Reminder that Lindy claims

I don't blame you this video was just scatterbrained.

In most cases muzzle breaks dissipated vision obscuring gases to the sides of the vehicle so that the commander and gunner could observe the shot taken. It also helped reduce the amount of dust and dirt kicked into the air by larger guns. Also for an example of accuracy being worked into muzzle break design, the M26 Pershing required the muzzle break to use its main gun as it helped with accuracy and recoil mitigation.

Lindy's WWII videos are a near unwatchable mix of speculation without any real grounding in reality, his acceptance of anecdotal evidence as fact, he rambles to the point where he is more off topic than on, and the occasional totally and factually incorrect mistake that he will never correct are present in nearly all of his WWII vids.

He also has a tendency to be biased towards the British in so much that he praises even their mediocre equipment over the best other nations have to offer. This is the country that built the world's largest computer at the time to crack an"unbreakable" code, how their intelligence was able to shut down the broadcast of Hitler's anniversary speech with a single airstrike but he'd rather talk about how even their failed tank doctrine produced the best tanks of the war and why the Bren gun is better than two machine guns despite the fact they were used completely differently.

Since his conclusions rest on a series of logical steps, he’s given us the means to refute him. But it’s easier to just spam SPANDAU than do that.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZeU9QVh4MI8

A very simple greentext of the points made in it:
>Holocaust has a definition (destruction of all humanity through fire). This has not happened.
>Nazi Germany DID kill 6 million Jews outside of direct war (hardly Holocaust denial)
>they also killed 5 million other kinds of people (French resistance, Polish intellectuals, gays, gypsies, schoolteachers, etc)
>when we limit “The Holocaust” to just the 6 million Jews, we tend to neglect the 5 million that also died.
>racial genocide is not some special form of murder. And the gypsies were targeted because of race as well.
>so we should remember all 11 million as the results of Nazism, rather than giving special attention to Jews.

A somewhat controversial opinion, but certainly not denial.

I’m not saying it’s a bad idea to remember all the victims. But the term Holocaust has come to explicitly mean the 6 million Jews in English vernacular. To stop using the term in this way (which is Lindy’s suggestion) is a controversial opinion.

It would be a controversial opinion to say that WWII started in 1941, when America got involved. I could make the case that it wasn’t a “World” war until all the superpowers became involved. But it would still be met with resistance.
