The battle hammock

It's not even a joke, they literally teach it and it works.

[@maotseovich1347]

@@Nordheide What? What does it do?

[@TugaAvenger]

@@maotseovich1347 It's a mounting for a self-propelled 90kg stabilization device

How is the GMG in desert conditions compared to mk-19?​@@Nordheide

[@UnfollowYourDreams]

I need one of those tripod hammocks for my garden.

[@Projectdarke]

IKR, also quickly gets rid of all the ballons from the garden party.

[@Nordheide]

German GMG gunner here. 10 years of service in a heavy Fallschirmjäger squad. If you have any questions regarding the HK GMG, let me know.

[@RKarmaKill]

Is this weapon good for hunting squirrels ?

[@davidspence5567]

I don't,I fired hundreds of Rounds in combat in Afghanistan

[@patriot17764th]

How would it fare in ukrane? If it has any issues what might they be. I know American ones or russian ones more. So I genuinely do not know much on it.

[@Chobaca]

Seem a bit heavy to jump with?

[@tobiasleierseder8470]

Wie viele Leute tragen ihn beim Absprung und im Feld ? LG Tobi

[@Screwball70]

I loved my GPMG when I was a soldier, I called it The General. I was the smallest guy in my company so I looked comical carrying it lol. I know this vid is about grenade launchers but the Jimpy is a crew weapon as well. It just made me think back to my glory days lol

[@ryanr.3925]

I audibly laughed at the tripod😂😂

[@WozWozEre]

Ah yes, the Heavy Bolter.

[@MaticTheProto]

yep

[@CapnDan57]

Thanks again, Matt

[@billbailey1620]

Micheal Schumacher test firing it was really cool

[@eugenebebs7767]

0:48 there's no need to put sandbags on this tripod when you have a deutchbag instead

[@Chromatic_Death]

this was a good comment.i liked this comment. you all should like it too

[@michaelwright8978]

This is Mercy you find it in Dead Wind Cavern by the alpha deathclaw

[@georgedoolittle7574]

I never saw my Arms Room equipment used in anger but of all of the weapons systems and it was very impressive for the time nothing compared to today im sure but yes the MK-19 i considered the deadliest weapon in the room. Great overview here😊😊

[@Jesses001]

all the popular 40mm auto guns are very useful.

[@filippinoramb]

I would guess the English warning was meant for US and German troops training in Germany, training both on the Mk19 and GMG

[@MarkD-pl4fu]

The US Gov buys these things, because for some reason we need to give money to people that hate us, in order to prop-up their MIC, which stole the design form the USA.

[@berryreading4809]

I normally hate bot comments, but given the context they are hilarious. 🤣 Great video btw 👍 I've seen a couple in pics or in backgrounds of videos, but definitely more firing footage of MK-19s, second only to various AGS eastern automatic grenade launchers... Hopefully we send plenty of linked high pressure golden eggs so we get to see more of how the HK performs... Possibly even a side by side MK-19 range video depending on which units get them and if/how they do social media for fundraising... 🤔 Thanks!

[@TheArmourersBench]

Hahah. Yeah. Thank you!

[@jackmehoff1840]

Looks like a ww2 MK108 30mm cannon

[@ThatSockmonkey]

Interesting. And terrifying.

[@user-gd1yo3sz2q]

Looks great

[@caryk3028]

The mark 19 we don't have at home

[@warrenphilips8441]

Tested on birthday balloons? Talk about a party pooper. I'll see myself out.

BRING BACK THE GMW TRIPOD HAMMOCK 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

[@egon-meyer]

Der Granatwerfer heißt HK GMW

[@TheArmourersBench]

In German yes it is.

[@kenb.1096]

In der Bundeswehr wird die waffe als GMW geführt. International aber als GMG vermarktet. Also beide Begriffe richtig

[@theodorkorner1497]

GraMaWa 😉

[@JonathanFergusonRoyalArmouries]

You might want to check the English language HK website. Grenade Machine Gun is its official English name, and TAB is an English language channel :)

[@linesteppr]

This is the granatwerfer. It werfs granat.

[@Valentino_cloud]

Cute and deadly It's perfect

[@TheBic4]

off topic but has it been discussed why russia is resuming production of the ags-17 when the ags-30 was made to replace it?

[@jerryle379]

Vehicle use ?

[@jelly.212]

Make a vid on how the Russians are using armoured vehicles. I want to know how its evolving

[@TheArmourersBench]

I do plan on doing a new look at Turtle Tanks and some other stuff.

[@GreasyGrecian-p3b]

Wouldn't the translation be grenade machine weapon, not gun?

[@alsanchez5038]

Yes. But works in both ways.

[@RustyBear]

Granatmaschinengewehr? 🥴

[@marcopaganotto9125]

The "w" if for thrower.

[@reyvan3806]

A better translation would be "launcher ", I think.

[@Wowplayer455]

Can you make a video on the plethora of shitty non combat vehicles like golf carts being used on the front

[@Spectrecontrol]

Nice to see Prince Harry doing his bit there

[@henrik_worst_of_sinners]

The trend has been when the West announce something it has already been delivered.

[@DopeFiend]

way too bulky for anything else than point defence and mounted on vehicle

[@caryk3028]

So are nukes

[@RustyBear]

Fort-600 and RPV-16 Videos when 😭🙏

[@FromMyBrain]

...wait wait wait wait wait wait wait.... that vehicle is real?!

[@B.Krol.050]

Which vehicle do u mean exactly?

[@schmip]

where can i apply to be a GMG hammock monkey?????? URGENT

[@moomeansmooable]

Its dogshit compared to the AGS systems but we get more of them and the ammo is easier to source so 🤷

[@TheArmourersBench]

Interesting, thanks! AGS is probably a lot simpler.

[@moomeansmooable]

@@TheArmourersBench The issues are primarily the Weight, its just not man portable like the AGS. the maintenance is also a lot more involved with specialist lubricant being needed for it cycle semi reliably and not rub itself to death and you can also potentially disable the weapon by placing it on the ground receiver down

[@bryanharris5034]

First?

[@DJC_YT]

Second?
