Shorker Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Hello mates, I found a video on YouTube that might be interesting to all sound modders (and gamers too): 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MG TOW Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 that vid has made its rounds on the forums before. On the surface it appears to be an educational film for recruits to influence soldiers and help maintain their confidence against the German weapons. Nothing wrong with that, and they make some good points. But on a more insidious level it also tries the sell the M3 grease gun as a far superior weapon over the precision made Thompson submachinegun. I have to wonder if there was a lack of confidence in the M3, or was the US looking to sell its troops and allies a cheaper alternative SMG. Not saying the M3 was a disaster. I read accounts from Korea and Spec Forces in Vietnam that actually liked the M3's light weight and slow rate of fire compared to the 9mm alternatives of the day. Well suited for crews. But compared to a Tommy at target shooting... come on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
