This video provides an in-depth look at the G150, a rare and unique silenced anti-materiel rifle developed for the secretive Swiss P-26 'stay-behind' organization. The P-26 was formed in 1981 to counter potential foreign occupation and was armed with specialized guerrilla warfare weapons. The G150, intended for destroying enemy equipment like radar and fuel tanks, featured commercial JP Sauer actions, SIG 540 components, and a substantial two-part suppressor. It was chambered for the .41 Remington Magnum cartridge, loaded with subsonic bullets. The video highlights the rifle's unusual 4-6 power scope and its limited production, with only an estimated 250 made and three known to exist today. Access to one of these rare examples was arranged by an anonymous viewer.
This video clarifies the technical definition of an "assault rifle" by breaking down its core components: fully automatic fire capability, detachable magazines, and chambering for an intermediate cartridge. The presenter highlights how this technical definition has been conflated with "assault weapons" due to legislative actions and common misuse of terminology. A SIG 540 is shown as an example of a proper assault rifle in action. The description also includes links to the creator's various platforms and merchandise.
This video delves into the history and design of the Beretta AR70, a 5.56mm infantry rifle developed in collaboration with SIG. It explores the rifle's lineage stemming from Beretta's unsuccessful bid for M16 production, its market introduction in 1972, and its adoption by military forces in Jordan, Malaysia, and Italian special forces. The description highlights design elements influenced by the AK series, such as the magazine system and rotating bolt, as well as its unique coil spring operating system. The video also touches upon the limited commercial import of the AR70/223 into the United States and its lesser-known status within the 'black rifle' community.
