What would the engineers who designed the StG 44 and the tooling for manufacture think of HMGs attempt to mass produce?

>preordering guns
>ever

That they liked the AK-47 better.

>You're dumb. Do you not realize that we had a logistical problem because of this same exact thing?

>durr original 8mm is better
>no 9mm is better
>I got idea. Let's make everything
>meanwhile the ruskies laugh in the distance

because they burned up all the money and have nothing to sell, they have been kicking retards down the road like a tin can for the last 3 years "were close to shipping guys" and everyone eats it up.

everyone who pre ordered deserves to lose the 3k.

>not sticking to the original caliber

What the actual fuck were they thinking?

That people would probably want to shoot them?

They'd probably say "wew all this money and technology and you can only make this bullshit"

You ever look at the original trigger group?
Classic German autism at work.

You'd think with the backgrounds Ian and Karl have they wouldn't be doing free advertising for sketchy startup companies. Half the guns on Forgottenweapons have some kind of backstory like HMG and Hudson. I think at one point a decade ago was pushing some other rifle company that failed to produce a working product.

The Serbs still make commercial Kurz ammo. And it doesn't take a genius to fireform brass or reload ammo either.

That's just like saying you can't shoot a Siamese Mauser because Walmart doesn't sell the ammo.

alright let me rephrase
That people would probably want to shoot them without it being either a pain in the ass or a rare occasion?

It's not as complicated as chambering and headspacing 4 different calibers, with absolutely no clue about how a tilting breech gun works

>backgrounds
>Ian
gets to play with other people's guns and read from a wikipedia script
>Karl
who? Who was he before inrange? Does anyone that isn't a tranny or a Jow Forums trip even watch inrange?

I'll give you that one. So if the company wanted to include an alternate caliber, it should have been 7.62x39, and that's it. Similar dimensions, but it would only be that way if a large consensus of customers would be okay with that.

The kurz and Soviet rounds have similar engineering concepts, but 5.56 is a completely different concept of physics and chamber pressure on it's own.

They're gun nerds, not business men. They probably just want to own as many repros as possible.

Ian is a mechanical engineer who's worked with production design. Karl is data security. Both of them have competitive shooting backgrounds, especially Karl.

>I know you're looking for a "they'd be disgusted"
Underrated.
Why do people assume that people they respect in the past are judgemental assholes like them? They're usually too smart to be an asshole like that.

>"all this technology and things to make manufacture easier, and you still haven't put it into production. We did it in bombed-out cities with boxes of scraps."

I've got some normie friends who watch Inrange.
Admittedly they're not the average gun owner

literally one of the owners

This is an imageboard you fucking retard

fpbp

what a bunch of scammers

Basically this.

8mm kurz can be found in Cabelas. You can buy it in bulk too.

Well, Production of ammo was greatly increasing till almost the end of the war. Problem was that the production was never enough, despite increasing all the time.

I learned why this gun will take forever to come out. It's very simply, the price is way too low. 2k for each gun doesn't cover all the costs that have come up for this project. The magazine shit is fucked, if it was really that bad of a problem they could of gotten out samples with standard mags for 5.56x45 and 7.62x39. The whole project is fucked simply because they absolutely need someone to buy their company and take the loss and then raise the price to approximately double or even triple what they were asking. They pulled a fyre festival. youtu.be/UBPg5ftCMv8

No one is paying over $3000 for a botched attempt at making a replica that can be visually distinguished from the original through a passing glance.

Yeah no one will PAY that much, but you can't argue that reproduction stg 44s can be sold at 2k per unit with the company making a profit. This will be one of the biggest losses in the gun industry if they actually manage to get them out for 2k a pop to their preorder people. SOME who paid infact less then what the sticker price is now.

they'd think nostalgia historic guns were bullshit and they'd want to be making some kind of futuristic carbon fiber bullpup instead

CNCs would mean there really would mean no point in keeping the sub human races alive, and would expediate the annihilation of the Jews and Slavs.

Seems like a jolly guy.

seriously, the StG44 reinvented the world of small arms, there was nothing like it before, it used the most cutting edge materials and engineering and manufacturing techniques available

Imagine what that team world have said at the time to somebody making a repro of an 1893 Winchester, same deal. They would have thought it a ridiculous waste of time

>we had this shit down pat in 1944 with a shoestring budget under the Furher's nose while our country was being invaded and you can't do it with none of these problems?

>used the most cutting edge materials and engineering and manufacturing techniques available
None of this is true, unless you want to go all weasel and say "well, it was the best AVAILABLE to them when they had no decent materials or production facilities"

Turns out the threat of rape at the hands of slavic hordes is a better motivator than economic ruin, I guess.

>the threat of rape at the hands of slavic hordes is a better motivator than economic ruin
That gives me an idea
