This video features a "shootoff" between Ian (Forgotten Weapons) and Mitch (Q's design engineer) at Moons Out Goons Out 2024. The challenge involves Q's new "Boombox" firearm. The Boombox is described as a scaled-up Honey Badger, compatible with SR25 magazines, and initially chambered in 8.6mm Blackout with a future 7.62x51mm variant planned. The stakes are high: Ian wins a Boombox if he's victorious, but faces public embarrassment if he loses. The video also promotes Forgotten Weapons' various platforms and merchandise.

Drilling a small hole allows a tool, like a firing pin, to depress the internal spring, enabling the separation of locked rifles.

The M134 Minigun is a scaled-down 7.62 NATO rotary cannon, requiring 24V DC power and consuming 1.5 kW. Its high rate of fire (3,000+ RPM) is essential for aircraft engagement windows. The complex delinker mechanism is critical for feeding ammunition, and practical hand-held use is impossible due to weight and recoil. Live fire demonstrates rapid ammunition consumption and the need for indirect aiming.

The H&K G11 is a revolutionary prototype assault rifle designed in the late 20th century, notable for its caseless ammunition and unique rotating drum bolt mechanism. Despite advanced features like a 2000 RPM burst fire rate and integrated optics, its development was ultimately halted by geopolitical shifts and cost concerns.
