This video offers a comprehensive review of the Heavy Counter Assault Rifle (HCAR), a modern firearm heavily inspired by the World War II BAR (A2 variant). The reviewer delves into their experiences after putting approximately two thousand rounds of .30-06 ammunition through the HCAR. The discussion covers various aspects of the rifle, including its design, magazines, barrel, handguard issues, controls, trigger, grip, and recoil.
This video delves into the Belgian Model 1915/27 Improved Chauchat, a significant evolution of the Chauchat automatic rifle. Originally adopted by the Belgian Army in 8mm Lebel, the Belgians developed a conversion to their standard 7.65mm Mauser cartridge by 1917. The improved 1927 model incorporated this conversion, along with enhanced magazines, comprehensive dust covers, a superior bipod design, simplified feed system, and an added tension latch for reliability. This iteration served as the standard Belgian front-line armament until the FN BAR's adoption in 1930, and saw service into the early stages of World War Two. The video highlights the contributions of Belgian engineers and thanks the Liege Arms Museum for providing access for filming.
