I just lover the way ww2 stuff looks mixed with modern aesthetics.
I'll be posting some examples of modernized ww2 stuff, feel free to post your own.

Took me a minute to figure out what you were saying.
I was distracted by what I thought was the most retarded folding stock in the universe.

Tbh Maxims are still great guns. The Brits fired one for like 7 days straight, as long as you have ammo and water they will keep firing.
>>29849542
Airsofters....
>Coat it in FDE
>Put a $30 sight on it
Hurr modernized.
>>29849600
Honestly they're still comparatively great guns so long as you don't want to move them a great distance on foot.
>mfw everything in this ITT
>>29849474
Still don't know what to think of this.
The M14 version of this (and the M14 in general I guess) could also be considered modernized WWII weapons.
Forget WWII, here's pre-WWI and still going strong with pretty minor tweaks.
I guess it's a matter of opinion whether that's a good thing or not.
>>29849474
I went looking to see if Mauser made a tacticooled 98. What I found was something far more beautiful.
I guess it doesn't really fit the thread aesthetic, though.
>>29849537
>empties both boxes in 4.1 seconds of fire
For what purpose? Why even have two guns? Shooting from the doors of a helicopter? shooting at drones?
>>29849474
Where does it eject? Downwards?
>>29849686
That better not fucking be what I think it is
>>29849731
A door gun makes the most sense to me. Seems like it'd be a pretty good platform for it, more firepower than any single belt-fed MG but less complexity than a rotary gun. It'd be perfect for the smaller helos that European militaries like.
>>29849760
It is, most likely. Don't worry though, it's new production and not a hacked up historic gun.
I also have trouble understanding what the point is supposed to be, especially since it's still in .30-06.
>>29849686
I don't understand why you'd modernize such an obsolete design. There are much better battle rifles out there. If for whatever reason you want a SAW-type weapon with a box mag you should modernize the Bren, ZB-26, FG-42 or even a WW2 Japanese LMG, they were far better.
>>29849686
So, no Colt Monitor? Dude, come on.
>>29849686
I'd buy one if I had enough money to piss away.
>>29849778
>Japanese LMG
>Far better
And many keks were had that day
>>29849838
Yup, being that they practically copied the Europeans on the later guns, yeah.
>>29849838

>>29849838
the japanese LMG is just a hotchkiss OC recolor and the hotchkiss was a fine (if fairly long in the tooth by WW2) machine gun
>>29849838
>I'm a fucking retard that listens to fuddlore
Jap machine guns were fucking great.
>>modernized ww2 equipment
>>no one posting m2a1
This reminds me of that Gene Hackman movie where their guns were confiscated so they picked up a load of milsurp M3s, M1919s, and Garands to spring a bunch of POWs.
>>29849922
The best since 1933.

>>29849778
>comparing it to an LMG
Naw, nigga. The Marine Corps has moved back to the "automatic rifle" concept, rather than a true LMG. An Automatic Rifle is far better at sustained automatic fire than a normal assault rifle (much heavier barrel, etc,) but without being as heavy and balky as a true LMG that requires a belt feed. Much like the soviet RPK.
Ironic, after years of trashing the BAR as an insufficient LMG, they're returning to the concept.
>>29849586
This being what?
>>29849586
>This thing is internally a .338 kar 98
What isn't? Mauser made the best bolt action design of the century. Damn near everyone copies theirs.
>>29849700
my 1911 is 500 dollar Philippine made handgun, but thats the thing it has no fancy firing pin safety only long guide rod thats it and 500+ rounds and not a single hicup I love it for that. the 1911 (series 70) and COLT build series 80 basically say we refuse to quit, retire me do everything you want, I will not quit as long as I am needed I will not quit and that is why I love the old gun, I know their is better I own better but i can never quit on the 1911
>>29850783
Mine as well. Itjustworks.png
>>29849624

>>29849776
>not wanting a battle rifle in 30.06
>>29849542
I want to puke
>>29849542
that strike plate tho
No op, it's just that the simplicity of the stamped steel externals of an mg42 easily lends itself to deviantart aesthetics
>>29849700
>$2,500
>doesn't even threaded barrel or flared magwell
>>29849686
Wish they got rid of the rails or made them lower as well as give it a drum or converted into a belt fed full auto like the Swedes did.
And make it in .338 win mag. Because why the fuck not.

>>29850764
that isnt a 338. gun. thats the nm149.
its a german made k98, captured by norwegians after the war. rechambered to 7.62 nato, used by the army as standard rifle, then some of those were accurized and there you have the nm149. they run german made recievers from before 1942. and were norwegian armys main sniper rifle untill 2013
>>29849690
A-at least you can still drop the action back into the original stock..
R-right guys?
>>29849686
>select fire rifle chambered in 30.06
If that isn't AMERICA as fuck I don't know what is.
>>29849542
Holy shit man. I almost died. Wait two years and COD will find out about this.
I would probably own one of these if it wasn't airshit. Of course it probably wouldn't get made in .45 so I'd have to settle on a modernized red 9.
>>29849883

Yes.
Yes it is.

b-but why anon
>>29851920
>>29849542
Are you autists honestly worried that a short range, rangetoy pistol has sights that will slightly deviate from the point of impact? 99% of us will never fire our weapons in self defense, and even if we did we wouldn't have enough weapon proficiency to benefit from more exact sights. Anyone STILL assblasted by the sight of butchered firearms hasn't been browsing this board long enough to post.
>>29852035
That gun is airsoft.
Anyways, I think this was used in the movie Kingsman
>>29852035
If you want to chop up a Remington 870 or a Sig P226 or any other commercial firearm be my guest.
Molesting military relics is dumb. It doesn't matter if they're100 years old or10 years old they're tied to history. Plus it destroys their monetary value.
If you want to bubba your milsurp I'm not going to stop you, but don't get mad when you get called out for being a mouth breathing retard.
speaking of modernized guns, what does sporterized mean? I see a lot of enfields that are "sporterized" but they look like normal enfields
>>29852063
I found it bizarre that they used a Tok in kingsman and not something like a 1911 or some kind of p226 clone.
IIRC that underbarrel shotgun attachment actually functions as well as they had a licensed gunsmith making the weapons/modifying them.
>>29849537
how does that eject?
>>29852063
imagine loading the underbarrel with 12 gauge frag rounds
>>29852312
what's so surprising? it's a communist gun in use by agents from a communist country
>>29852063
would this be legal to make?
>reasons
>>29852329
Looks like the shells eject out the back? or under it onto the tripod and then they fling about under it.
>>29852391
>legal
probably not. Pistols loaded with 12guage shells are considered destructive devices IIRC.
But would it be fun? Holy shit yes. Even if it would destroy my weak ass wrists (australian, only shot .22 and .223 so far, no pistols), holy shit would it not be the most fun thing in existence.
>>29852377
>mfw
>>29852391
AOW, $5 tax on the NFA
>>29851735
If this was made as a new production, and not made out of a butchered C96, I would buy the shit out of this.
This is the gun I'd wield on planet Gunsmoke.
>>29851735
I'm trying to figure out if this is supposed to be some kind of bull barrel or if it's a free-floating shroud. It looks like it's integral, and if that's the case it'd stop the gun from working.
>>29852329
It's downward ejecting.
>>29852128
I bet that picture of the bubba'd Johnson rife sends you into a convulsing conniption, doesn't it?
>waah, rich people don't value money as much as I do!
>>29852449
You recall incorrectly. It would be an SBS as the barrel is unrifled and less than 18".
>>29852312
They bobbed the hammer to make it look like a colt pocket gun (1903/1908)

Usually means chopping down the stock and making other modifications to make a military rifle more convenient to use as a hunting (or sporting) rifle.

The US Krag carbines were built that way.

>>29853626
I understand they did, what I am saying is that you don't need fancy mods to make a weapon unique.

I get it, it's a modernized BAR, which is cool I guess. But what does this do that a SCAR can't do? Do they really think any military units are really going to buy this? They should have scaled it up to .338 Lapua, that would be something, although ridiculously expensive to shoot.

Uncommon Valor, I fucking loved that movie as a kid. I watched it recently and realized it has some pretty terrible acting in it, but it's still awesome in that 80's Vietnam movie kind of way. Definitely still has some right in the feels moments.

except that the bar was both a shitty rifle and a shitty lmg. the bar was mediocre at best by the start of ww2 and obsolete by the end. the fact that it was used through the Korean war is an embarrassment
>>29849542
I couldn't figure out what gun it was until I looked at the mag butt plate.
That's fucking disgusting
>>29849624
>>29850844
That wasn't a Maxim -- that was a Vickers gun.
>>29854106
This, that the Army stuck with their 24 lb iteration of the BAR when stuff like the Colt Monitor existed was ridiculous.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/7.62_Tkiv_85
>Though the 7.62 TKIV 85 sniper rifle has been modified extensively compared to the standard Mosin–Nagant rifle, the use of the old receivers in these rifles makes them arguably the oldest small arms in current use by any military. Some of the parts used may date back as far as the 1890s.
>>29849573
I wonder what that heatsink-looking object under the barrels is for
>>29849690
>>29850497
>>29853588
Honestly doesn't really bother me. The paint/cerakote on that last one might be hard to deal with, but otherwise you could pop that M1 right out of that stock and put it back in factory wood. In a way it's even a good thing, because it lets you shoot your gun without wearing out historic furniture.
>>29850921
Meh, it's meant to be a beater service pistol, not a race gun. I agree that it's overpriced for what it is, but I don't think a threaded barrel or flared magwell are necessary. (And they just add places for grunts to fuck the guns up, and more spots for grit to get into the gun.)
>>29854199
Hey, I never said it was the right decision, just that it's a 100 year old gun that's still getting updates and still in frontline service.
You know, though, when it comes down to it, the argument could be made that virtually every handgun in military service today is in one way or another descended from the 1911.
>>29854169
Wasn't it a Maxim-Vickers?
The Vickers company purchased Maxim after all.
