Garbage: This Early Assault Rifle Might Be the Worst Machine Gun Ever Made
*Kyle Mizokami* *Rifles, Europe* Design flaws in the Chauchat were legion. *Here's What You Need to Know*: Despite high hopes, the Chauchat turned out to be terribly unreliable. One day at the auction house, someone left a pile of guns on the ground. This was not at all unusual. At the very bottom, wrapped in moving blankets, was a pile of scrap metal. I parted the blanket gently to expose more of whatever I was seeing — gently because the metal had a patina of dirty age and I didn’t want to stick myself. I saw an aluminum tube from a bicycle and a coiled spring. A crescent-sha... read more

When British India became independent in 1947, the country was divided into Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan.

Received via e-mail, origin unknown: Looking at the behavior of Antifa/BLM rioters, the whining of the "woke" and the posturing of the politically correct, I reckon they all prove the truth of that! Sadly, many of those who spoiled their children also failed - or refused - to raise their grandchildren. Instead, they abdicated that responsibility to schools and the state, the local organs of Big Brother. Because they didn't care, they failed to monitor what those organizations were doing in their name. They let them get away with social engineering, and what is, in so many... read more
