Firearms Expert Reacts to Call of Duty: Black Ops 1 & 2 Weapons

[@ClonedGamer001]

My favorite bit about the HS10 is that both IRL and in the game there's a big warning on the side telling the user not to fire it from the left shoulder (because then hot shell casings will be ejected directly into your cheek and neck). And yet, not only is dual wielding an option in the game, it's the only attachment available for the weapon.

[@farenhitegr6493]

You'd think in the game that allowed you to attach a suppressor on a SPAS-12 they'd allow you to jury rig a reflex sight, foregrip or an extended barrel and tube to act as alternative attachments... Not that I'm really complaining, as it's pointless in this point in time, but it's just something to note.

[@ClonedGamer001]

@@farenhitegr6493 Extended mags would have been super easy. The HS10 IRL came in two flavors (four really, but only two in regards to magazine size): One with a four round tube and one with a six rounder. The in-game weapon only has a four shell capacity, but visibly has the larger magazine. So an extended mags "attachment" wouldn't have even required a new model or anything.

[@philipgodsworth4764]

Since the Akimbos weapon models are one single hand mirrored on the other side, they thankfully avoid that issue with a bespoke left handed HS10z

[@ClonedGamer001]

@@philipgodsworth4764 Akimbo weapons actually aren't mirrored in Black Ops. When dual wielding the HS10, the one in the left hand has its carry handle swiveled to the other side, presumably so it isn't directly in the player's face but none of the other details are flipped. (And the carry handle being flipped doesn't require any modifications or anything). The lack of mirroring can be easily seen with the Python's dual wield reload animation, as well.

[@rickytorres8566]

I can't remember where but I heard a rumor that BO1 in it's development was originally supposed to take place in the 80's because of the anachronistic guns and a lot of the footage used in cut scenes being from there but that somewhere along the line they changed it to 60's and we're too far along to make drastic changes.

23:30 The PDW used to be very controllable, and was very overpowered when multiplayer released. It led to them nerfing the recoil insanely.

[@ARandomSpecOp]

Also it used to be the ar57 before they decided to go with a completely fictional design

[@DualWieldedEggrolls]

I too remember this. Before I had online internet, I always played offline campaign and multiplayer with bots. I remember the PDW57 being so good with consistent TTK and low recoil. But when I finally got online, downloaded the patch and was tripping on why the PDW57 felt so off and different.

[@rooster6461]

I own a high standard model 10 B (hs10) For anyone wondering, the reload is fudged, you have to hold down the button on the side of the receiver to unlock the loading gate/elevator. The recoil is brutal, they only like buckshot or slugs as well. Using them one handed is more of an emergency thing. Using one in the left hand would leave you eating shotgun shells. They eject pretty hard back.

[@Alex_D_Vasilkov]

So it's like a SPAS-12 in a way...

[@Randomly_Browsing]

Well, they did add the warning for left handed users

[@gameragodzilla]

A lot of older semi-auto shotguns functioned that way. SPAS-12 is probably the most famous these days, but the original Browning Auto-5 had that requirement too. It’s due to how the bolt hold open function works. Modern semi-autos updated the design to still have a bolt hold open but not have to hold down the bolt release to load, including newer Auto-5s. The SPAS-12 remains the most famous shotgun with this quirk since it’s a pop culture icon, yet never was updated with the modern way of loading.

[@Randomly_Browsing]

@@gameragodzilla that's because SPAS-12 had stopped being produced

[@rooster6461]

Ive heard a theory that BO1 was supposed to be set in the 1980s, because theres so much stuff from the 80s, even intel from cutscenes that talk about niche stuff about soviet special forces in the 1980s, that it looks like it was supposed to be set then. The theory goes that it was supposed to be set in the 1980s, but some higher ups at activision changed it to the 1960s to fit some cool vietnam missions in.

That together with some actual lethal shells like buckshot (or shrapnel shot as it is referred to) and slugs.

Its interesting that Jonathan should mention the Kel-Tec P50, and how the top cover needs to be lifted up for reloads, when talking about the PDW-57. The weapon was recently added to MWIII and the devs changed the reload to put the magazine in from the side, seemingly as an intentional callback to the PDW-57.

[@HQ_Default]

16:14 This is actually something that always bothered me about Black Ops 2, it did treat the AN-94 like it was the next iteration of the AK, even if it was an overly complicated/expensive gun. So I couldn't help but be annoyed seeing the ragged militia group in 2025 using them as their standard firearm when it would make infinitely more sense for them to just use the regular AK-47 _that was already in the game._

[@gohunt001-5]

@@Randomly_Browsing I know all of this, but the lack of S would technically mean it doesn't have a FOLDING stock, implying it would have a normal solid stock instead. But in-game it has none, just the hinges for a side folder, making it the only "SMG" to not get a stock when equipped with a "grip" attachment

[@Randomly_Browsing]

@@Alex_D_Vasilkov funnily enough, it's not technically SMG since it's ammo type is similar to AK-74, making this either a carbine or PDW

[@hershmergersh6733]

Nice to see something sensible again. Wouldn't have been surprised to see the weapons of Warframe or High On Life being reacted to.

[@lordmetzgermeister]

28:44 "Mom's croquery", how very British 😄

[@ItsnikBaconhead]

This is what made me subscribe because I love the Black ops series but the only one I can currently play before the full bo6 releases is bo3 on the ps5. But I mainly play on pc now.

[@dagttv]

And here is 1 of 2 of our AN-94s.....ultimate flex

[@coltforceplayer]

A stocked Spectre would’ve been better cuz the stock would help me not get confused with the Kiparis

[@michaelgaskins9573]

There is a version of the SITES Spectre that has no stock and no holes for it on the rear sight protectors. Ian from forgotten weapons did a video on this specific version. It's a us import semi-auto version.

[@thegoldengod4711]

Perfect timing to show off the Deadpool shirt.

[@KomeRad]

PDW was my first and favourite weapon in multiplayer cuz it looks so futuristic and unique

[@MSXGRYPHUS]

very nice you have an AN-94 in your collection, I really like that gun.

[@paulfarrell1688]

I’d like to see an experts react on the command and conquer series, I feel it would be interesting to see how an expert would break down some of the more advanced technology especially in the tiberium timeline

[@jacksonrampage4598]

Finally, these were the best games and the cold war weapons and modern experiment weapons it shows were awesome.

[@C21H30O2]

I have a Taurus judge. I have a small home in the city, PDX .410 rounds are perfect for my home defense situation. That's all it's good for but it's a perfect pillow gun for me.

[@wisecrack3461]

On the stockless Spectre M4, there were multiple civilian variants with the US Import Spectre-HC being treated as a pistol with neither the grip or stock, though some variants would have one or the other iirc.

[@imagifyer]

12:29 there are actually stockless versions of the Spectre, in order to conform with US regulations they were either sold as a 'Carbine' variant with the stock attached but a much longer barrel (much like the FS-90), or were sold with the normal barrel length sans stock as a 'pistol'. The pistol version did however still have the cross pin needed for attaching the stock, so the game is indeed incorrect due to its absence

[@Samuel2oh9]

Not having the G11 covered on here is a legitimate crime

[@Thisandthat8908]

This spring knife reminded me of a one shot hidden crossbow thingy, used in Terry Prachetts 5th Elephant. Partly because of the remarks on reloading. - Vimes turned the thing over and over in his hands. It looked vaguely like a long-handled hammer, or perhaps a strangely made telescope. What it was, basically, was a spring. That’s all a crossbow was, after all. ‘It’s a devil to load,’ he said. ‘I nearly ruptured myself cocking it against a rock. You’d only get one shot.’ ‘But it’s the shot no one expects, mhm, mhm.’

[@Doom_Slug]

Would be really cool to see him cover some of the guns in CoD Ghosts, say what you want about that game but it had some interesting guns. Would love to see him talk about the Bulldog/MAUL, Ameli, and FAD in particular, but the Bulldog is a must lol

[@lukepurcell2189]

The specter was my go to smg with a suppressor, it would absolutely shred

[@Qikshift]

We need to do a continuation of the Black Ops 2 weapons. I really wanna hear his thoughts on the Chicom CQB!!

[@royalsempire1757]

The commando was the colt commando it was essentially an m16 that was designed to be more compact and lighter than the standard m16. It was used for covert ops for a short time during Vietnam. Forgotten we has a video on it. It's the colt 639

[@seniorordenanza2387]

24:53-25:20 thank you Johnathan, thank you for explaining that. I do hope people understand why players like me, use skins that are military inspired and use builds that are based on their irl counterparts.

[@darthcerebus]

Killzone and The Conduit is all I need to be reviewed. The Conduit being Wii exclusive might make it a bit weird to get footage of, but still, it'll be worth seeing Jonathan's reaction to all the weapons and tech on display in it.

[@bingus-vx2nc]

7:45 Wouldn't having the sling caught on the bolt catch potentially also run the risk of locking the bolt open during firing, even if you're not done shooting? Similar to how a poor grip on a pistol might cause the slide stop to engage prematurely.

[@SpadeOfNades]

Seeing his comment at the end of the PDW section about COD games in his eyes being primarily in the past and present makes me more curious to see how he'll react to the weapons from the future era of the series (Advanced Warfare, Black Ops 3, Infinite Warfare) because safe to say that was definitely the point where they went off the rails in terms of the game's weapons lol.

[@Lamp37820]

Fun fact about the executioner, it actually has less pellets per shot than all the other shotguns. So actually accurate apparently.

[@tonypang83]

Wow... this video brings back memories. Black Ops 1 and 2 are the only COD games I've ever played - totally addicted to the multiplayer (despite not being that great at it!) but for some reason, stopped playing any from the series since. I'm going to play Modern Warfare 3 via Game Pass at some point, but it's going to feel odd after all these years

[@ultima8250]

23:45 it does have a resemblance to the Magpul PDR as well

[@automatiiik]

i believe its a play on the ar-57 as well

[@ginger6048]

YES, J Furg is a legend been waiting for BO1 video to drop

[@ajackson4980]

i can’t believe this series has done so well for so long and yet yall still can’t get that man a microphone that doesn’t sound like a pringles can

[@oskarskalski2982]

About the HS10 and Akimbo, you shouldn't use it like that, even on the shoutgun itself it says "caution do not shoot from the left shoulder" because in that case the spent casings would be shooting right at you. However thanks to the pivoting butplate you can easily shoot it one-handed so in that regard akimbo is plausible (apart from all those casings coming back at you:).

[@playbutton4862]

Hey guys, love this series, and Johnathan is basically a great guy to discuss stuff like this, but I would love to see you guys tackle the uncharted series, cause even though there not realistic Nathan drake has one heck of an arsenal in all of the games, just putting it out there

[@OGJDOT]

As someone that has fired a sa80 and an lsw on range with a susar sight it is accurate. The only thing I would like to see if they bring it back is if you are playing a night map the tip of the point should glow. Due to tritium illumination.

[@Dung30n]

Came to see today's t-shirt, was not disappointed, stayed for the video.

[@vothien2705]

12:56 I love that he took the effort to hide the magazine to pretend like he's using a new one LOL
