The sights are better and that’s really what comes into play in something like this. – So I think at this point I’m going conclusively say that the Thompson is a much more accurate sub-machine gun. (fully automatic gun fire hitting metal) Not too bad, but not too good.Īnyways, let’s go back to the room and finish this one up.
I’ll put the total hits vs misses right here.īut I’d really like to try that on full auto just for giggles basically and see how it goes under those circumstances.Īlright, here we go again, this time with a little less trigger control. I did have enough trigger control to pull off semi-automatic shots and it went okay. Those guys in Europe doing the sub-machine gun competitions really have it down. (bullets firing and hitting metal) Not too bad, let’s go talk about it. So this is gonna require a lot of trigger control to basically get semi-automatic fire out of since it doesn’t have a semi-automatic setting. Where guys with Swedish Ks shoot them at 100 meters and more basically.Įven though they’re full auto only like this gun. What actually inspired me to do this with an open bolt weapon was European sub-machine gun competitions. – Alright so he we go with the German MP40. I think it’s just kinda the nature of the design, but let’s see what happens when we take this gun to the run and gun course. So let’s see how I can do in, also I’d to remind you the folding stocks on these are pretty dang wobbly as well. So on the run and gun course we’re gonna fire 30 shots in our typical fashion using two magazine changes starting at about 75 yards and this one is gonna be tricky because as I said there is no semi-automatic setting. You can actually lock the bolt forward by pressing the charging handle inwards or you can lock it to the rear by pulling the bolt back and pushing it up under the safety slot and there’s no way that that bolt is going forward. They also are very safe for an open bolt fire arm. They’re simple but they have some cool features like a Bakelite resting bar under the barrel.
Now this one’s gonna be pretty tricky because the MP40 does not have a semi-automatic setting, these are open bolt, full auto only. (automatic machine gun fire) – Alright so now that we had a little bit of fun at the beginning of the video, this is Alex C with TFBTV and today’s run and gun is going to feature a MP40. While there is no setting for semi-auto, with some trigger control we should still be able to have a go with it on the run and gun course. The German MP40 SMG is famous for its use during World War II, and was the Thompson’s rival on the Western Front.
