Stallone had one of the best answers to a question leading up to the premiere of this movie. I don't remember what he was accused of they were talking about the movie being so violent and did not promoting any sort of peace and his response was war is natural peace is an accident.

[@timgimmy609]

I guess violence is more “natural” than peace is, it’s a part of life clearly, but war is mostly a human thing. Not many other animals have large scale conflict in that kind of way. Animals coexist in mutually beneficial relationships all the time though. It’s not like this movie is depicting war in an accurate way or exploring the psychology like First Blood, it’s just an excuse to be as sadistic and violent as possible.

[@oldleatherhandsfriends4053]

Dude ants, termites,wasps and bees all go to war and wipe out other hives or different species of said type.

[@Hercules1-v9m]

I got some bad news for you. Animals are far more violent than humans are. They wage war constantly for even pettier reasons than we do. They commit genocides on unbelievable levels non stop.

First blood is probably the movie that stuck with me the most since I was a kid! Great review boy's! 🤘🏼🏴

[@abovethenoise1718]

I want to acknowledge your accuracy on the statement about the Barrett. I carried an M82A1 and that was for the purpose of punching holes through engine blocks (as Buck Rogers points out). It came in very handy during a very sideways mission, but humping that platform even in 2 pieces was terrible especially considering ammo weight. I hated the concussion report because it'd kick up dirt and almost always give away your position on a cold bore shot

[@jameslyddall]

2 years late but not having served but felt the weight of one of these at a shooting event I can totally imagine how much of a work out it is to hump one of these around in a combat operation with ammo and other equipment. Must loose so much body weight with sweat alone on operations.

I think I remember watching an interview with John "Stryker" Meyer from MACVSOG that they used some kind of timed fuse on a claymore when they had the NVA on their 6 giving chase. seemed like he said they would put a 30 second fuse and stick it and run. love the show guys. Funny stuff.

[@halostar6]

Time fuse exists so it's very possible. Time fuse is just not very reliable. My time as an engineer we always used it as a secondary initiator to our primary.

I remember seeing this really obscure 37mm anti-material rifle once, wish I could remember the bloody name, it wasn't American or European, it said only a hundred or so were made (largely because I imagine they weren't practical for much) but the one thing that made me laugh was that it a bipod that in of itself weighed 15 kilos.

[@rosshixon6796]

YESSSS!!! I heard this movie has the biggest kill count of any movie. Some of these scenes are brutal. Hard to imagine...

[@darwinjohnson5133]

Sean, The claymore is capable of being detonated with a non-electric blasting cap/time fuse system which can be initiated with an M81 Fuse Ignitor or a tripwire/initiator system. Our combat SOP on our ODA (1stSFG) during the 90's was to carry a Claymore in the top flap of your rucksack with a 30-second time fuse/non-electric system so that it could be pulled out for pursuit deterrent or for destroying your ruck if you had to ditch it. The claymore could also be prepped to initiate using detcord which allowed you to daisy-chain multiple claymores together and fire them from a single initiator. Modern claymores also have shock-tube initiation systems.

[@FNGACADEMY]

Makes sense to me! Thanks dude! DOL

[@robinbellamy]

I enjoyed your review! I would like to suggest two movies to review. The 1989 Gene Hackman movie The Package. Gene Hackman portrays a Green Beret. The 1980 Christopher Walken movie The Dogs of War. Christopher Walken plays a mercenary who is sent on a secret reconnaissance mission to Africa and later organizes a coupe.

When the killing stops in one place, it starts in another, but that's okay... 'cause you're killing for your country. But it ain't your country who asks you, it's a few men up top who want it. Old men start it, young men fight it, nobody wins, everybody in the middle dies... and nobody tells the truth! God's gonna make all that go away? [pause] John Rambo: Don't waste your life, I did.

We'd even set them with tripwires around a LP/OP. Or any defensive position really. But that was back in the day!

[@robbiebaker2412]

In reference to your comments about hating the Barrett because it's so heavy was funny. I had a similar experience with the desert eagle 50 cal handgun. I had seen them in several movies when I was younger. Then I say Danny glover with one in predator 2 and swore I would buy one if I ever had the $$. A few years ago I was in a pawn shop in Georgia. I saw one for sale, so I immediately asked to see it. I had never seen one in real life, and I was determined to walk out of there with it...until he handed it to me. That thing was like trying to lift a damn dinosaur leg or something! I had never considered it being that heavy. I have a colt 357 magnum with a 6 in. Barrel that's heavy enough, but compared to the desert eagle, my 357 feels like a bb pistol. I couldn't imagine carrying that desert eagle around, especially when you add the weight of ammo and extra loaded magazines, so I didn't buy it. Maybe I should have just for the novelty but that's a big price tag for something I would probably never actually use. My 357 is enough for me I guess. I never go in the woods without it
