In Defense of the MG 42 Bipod

Occasionally people seem to disregard the bipod on the MG 42 (and also that on the MG 34 which was very similar) since it so "floppy". Yet, as Philipp - a former MG gunner in the Swiss Army - explains the "floppiness" makes a lot of sense, if the weapon is actually used in its intended way, namely as a military weapon in the offense and defense.

Military History Visualized

sorry for the late answer; I assume it was about 24-36 hours before release, at that time frame I switch from "unlisted" to "scheduled" on YouTube, the problem is "scheduled" means also the video is set to private as well :(
