Today we have the SIG MKPS out at the range – and WOW! I did not anticipate just how fast-firing of a submachine gun this is. Calculating from the high speed footage, it is running at 1350 rpm – and yet it’s still very controllable. It’s a beautiful looking gun, a beautifully made gun, and a really nice-shooting gun. What more could you want?

A Sneaky Swiss Sniper for Israel: the ZK-31
In 1949, Israel was still fighting its was of independence, and purchasing arms internationally was difficult to do. The recently-formalized IDF wanted sniper rifles, and looked to Hammerli in Switzerland for a variant of the […]

RIA: Müller 1895 Curved Recoil Pistol (Video)
The model 1895 Müller automatic pistol is an interesting and unusual design, despite being a simple blowback action. Where most pistols have a bolt or slide that moved directly rearward, the Müller pushes the bolt […]

Swiss Week – LMG25 Manuals and Photos
Continuing Swiss Week, we have more detailed information on the LMG25 light machine gun today. There design was officially adopted by the Swiss Army in 1925 (as you might have guessed) after about 7 years […]
Where is the video?????
ON YOUTUBE, YOU BOOB!!!
Because it’s a between the wars SMG and Swiss, I assume that it’s fairly heavy. The muzzle doesn’t appear to move around much. Sure wish we could’ve seen how it prints at, say, 50 and 80 meters.
I think one could safely assume that the print would resemble
Swiss cheese.
One has to wonder what would happen to any anarchist foolish enough to attempt to challenge Swiss Police to a pistol fight, since the MKPS would be thrown into the mix…
“Because it’s a between the wars SMG and Swiss, I assume that it’s fairly heavy.(…)”
http://modernfirearms.net/en/submachine-guns/switzerland-submachine-guns/sig-mkps-mkms-eng/ gives Weight, empty of SIG MKPS as 3.6 kg.
So about the weight of an Uzi with the wooden stock. I guess the Uzi has a heavier bolt leading to a noticeably lower cyclic rate than the MKPS. The MKPS has more nice wood OTOH. 😉
Is this more controllable though, from the vid; might be structable rigidty or something via the stock. Did to me.
For 9mm that looked groovy at the rpm, ppsh better though via vids…
Anyway better than 5.45mm or 5.56mm sooo… Like, if they hit armour… Er, maybe something that hit better, more hits that did not hit armour…
I think I am right. I open to folk saying fuck off, mind if they explain it. Without me being rude in reply.
I honestly think I am right.
How? Well er… Tell folk to centre on the nuts… Aye. He he. Same width as the chest.
Still think I am right.
Shoot them in the groin… With that. What? He he. Its below armour. Honestly you people.
Obviously nobody should be shot anywhere; but if you have modern tech armour, does it not make sense to shoot them below the armour at a high controllable rate of fire.
As oppose 5.56 or 5.45 in a smg package at the armour. No? Honestly… “Kick dirt ball”
Ppsh 32rds in the nuts. Aye it would be fatal… Shame etc… Top armour, javelin lark; aim for the non armour… Philistines. You can’t put 32 in the groin in 5.45 or 5.56: Can with thus or the Ppsh in 7.62x25mm.
I mean, I am sorry someone had to suggest shooting folk in the nuts. But someone had to.
Its the “top armour” lark; but (bottom) meh, whatever; but I see no point in two sides aiming with guns at relevant bullet proof plates on purpose.
Laser tag… All for that, if folk won’t cheat.
Laws. Is it Geneva, fair enough; suppose it depends how many there is vs you.
Many people mix up geneva with hague conventions
“(…)I mean, I am sorry someone had to suggest shooting folk in the nuts. But someone had to.”
Please be warned that there is often possibility of extending armour, especially taking in account progress in material technology, see left half of image https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A4%D0%B0%D0%B9%D0%BB:%D0%9C%D0%B5%D1%82%D1%80%D0%BE-chapter11figure327.jpg
“Ppsh 32rds in the nuts.(…)”
Where did you get magazine of said capacity for said weapon?
“(…)Top armour, javelin lark; aim for the non armour… Philistines(…)”
I do not understand your claim. Please be more lucid in description of how https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javelin_(surface-to-air_missile) is supposed to work?
Meh: https://youtu.be/ZH9kSScl8vU
Ppsh 7.62x25mm for me still; but just saying this much more heavy bulky, yet nice 9mm Can do what? Swiss cheese the same as Ppsh.
The clue in anti armour tech other than in small arms seems to be; don’t aim for it.
Anyway good tunes eh; 1450’ish… Find the kinks in the armour with your big pointy stabby/chopper.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jan_Hus
Thats what they would have done; shot them in balls, and it would worked. So think on, burp.
43 mag wells, stick mags only. But Ppsh 41 everything else.
bbbbbbbbbbnnnn. balls.
Suppose there may be a technical problem telling troops to zoom in on the enemies balls… But that is just because you dont hate them enough, pull the trigger!
Ok belly button… Something other than, duh the mutha fucking armour like. Duh, with armour in play.
Thighs… Hot thighs… He he!
Actually I think Terminators will take over.
He he!
“Actually I think Terminators will take over. ”
Are you implying wider usage of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMPT_Terminator ?
No it will be ok Ppsh’s don’t have scopes; you just say CUT IN HALF! And thus well head shots are out; work itself out. Lower, rounds generally. Well its a fact anyway 5.45 in armour up to it is pointless so there.
Hot thighs. He he.
Why am I saying this? Well a lot folk most of the “West” was pumping rounds downrange at for 20 yrs; never wore armour eh.
Time flies.
