Ha ha ha this is great:
BERLIN (Reuters) - The German Defence Ministry is investigating an amateur video clip of a German army instructor ordering a recruit training with a machine gun to imagine he is firing at "African Americans" who are insulting his mother.


That german instructor is my hero of the day. The first seconds in the video the recruit forgot to put the belt in the MG, after he closed the cover and tried to fire the intructor asked him "did you forget something"? I know german.

Am amased that german army still today uses MG42

MG3

The guy in the video is firing BLANKS. There is no recoil. If you have ever fired a live 42, it has kick.

You have no experience, the MG3 in .308 can appear that it has no recoil when attached to laffete.

Yeah, german government has tough laws when it comes to its history. Freedom of speech is banned in germany, you can not express yourself correctly there if you are very proud german. Jews can ban MG3 to be used officialy in german army, they can cry and say "those are the same guns that nazis used on death camp towers and it offends us", german govt. would take em out of service the next day. Thats how german govt. is. They bow to any international pressure.

One of my old commanders told me a story about something that happend to him in college. He had a friend who was one of those uber-Zionists, everything was Jewish this and that, and not a day would go by without some mention of his peoples suffering and oppression. One day WWII comes up as a topic and this guy just GOES OFF about his people were the only people who really suffered....So, my commander, being 100% German, says "Shut the hell up, I lost family in concentration camps too.........my uncle got drunk and fell out of the guard tower.............."

Needless to say it went over like a fart in a spacesuit, but it makes for a funny story. Nowadays it would have turned into some type of formal lawsuit......
