This video announces the release and details the contents of the book 'Small Arms of the Cold War: Battle Rifles of NATO' by Ian McCollum of Forgotten Weapons. The book covers major NATO battle rifles and associated firearms from the early Cold War period, including precursors and less common examples. It features extensive photography and aims to provide a comprehensive overview of these iconic weapons.
This video ranks Cold War battle rifles, placing the HK91 and SIG PE57 in S-Tier for reliability, modularity, and engineering quality, respectively. The FN FAL and Springfield M1A (M14 stand-in) are B-Tier, with the FAL's performance hampered by a loose sight and the M1A performing better despite iron sights. Range tests at 290 yards highlighted the PE57's soft recoil and the HK91's modularity with its claw mount.
