This Q&A session for October 2025 features Forgotten Weapons host Ian discussing a variety of firearms topics, including unusual pistol designs, future plans for the channel and Headstamp Publishing, and personal life updates. Gun-specific discussions range from Sedgley Gove Guns and grenade launchers to the Gyrojet vs. Dardick, the .30 Carbine cartridge, modern rifle developments (like the 6.8x51mm M7), squad automatic weapons, and the potential replacement of iconic firearms like the G3 and High Power. The conversation also touches on firearm literature, technical terms like 'spring tension,' the market for 9mm PCCs, and the viability of technologies like Metal Storm. The video concludes with a lightning round of potential future video topics and advice on building a firearm and cartridge reference library.
This video documents the acquisition and first firing of a rare, fully transferrable Chinese AK47 machine gun, purchased for approximately $20,000. Expert insights from Brandon Herrera confirm its legal status as a pre-1986 converted NFA item. The video also features a unique ballistic test comparing a traditional sandbag wall against a wall made of potatoes, demonstrating the effectiveness of produce as cover against various calibers, culminating in the complete destruction of the potato wall by multiple full-auto AK platforms.
This review details a rare pre-production Pancor Jackhammer Mk3 prototype, a gas-operated, blow-forward selective-fire shotgun developed by John Anderson. Despite its innovative design, the project failed due to funding issues and export restrictions. The Mk3 variant features design improvements like a solid aluminum top rail and a unique revolving drum magazine, though this specific unit is non-functional, lacking a complete firing mechanism.
