This video analyzes the Reising submachine gun, a WWII-era firearm that showed initial promise but faltered in combat due to poor quality control, awkward ergonomics, and low magazine capacity, leading to its rejection by Marines. Despite its battlefield failures, the Reising found a niche in US and international law enforcement due to its affordability and reliability in cleaner, urban environments. The review details its three variants: the M50, M55 (for paratroopers), and the semi-automatic M60 (still NFA legal). The video also includes thanks to Proxibid and Ventura Munitions, and a call to support TFBTV on Patreon.

This video explores the Reising M50 and M55 submachine guns, manufactured by Harrington & Richardson during WWII. Facing a shortage of submachine guns, the US Marine Corps, particularly paratroopers and tank crews, adopted these firearms due to their compactness and lighter weight compared to the Thompson. Chambered in .45 ACP and utilizing a delayed blowback action, the M55 featured a pistol grip and wire folding stock. Despite developing a negative reputation in the Pacific theater due to parts interchangeability issues, fouling susceptibility, and complex disassembly, the Reising was also popular in post-war civilian law enforcement use and remains an affordable military machine gun option today.
