The Police Department where I work here in Brazil still has some units of Smith & Wesson M-76 (probably supplied by CIA during anti-Communist struggle in 70's). M-76 is a fragile gun. All that I handled are with loose buttstocks, dropping magazines while cocking or losing parts. Other SMGs of the same era, or even older (like Beretta M-12 or Brazilian INA) generally came to our days in better conditions.

Wire cutter in Galil was copied from the finnish RK62. The bottle opener though was genius for their climate!

@@OGRajamaki There is no wire cutter in RK62. The Wire cutter is in the bipod in Galil and RK62 has no bipod. The bottle opener was because soldier break their magazines by using them as bottle openers.

@@zenn6636 I knew some dumbass would say it like that

It's demonstrably not a straight copy, I think the video was more interested in talking about how much the Finnish variation played in the design of the Galil. Virtually every AK derivative from outside Russia brings someone unique to the table. The AK itself took massive notes from the American M1 Garand (though people often misrepresent the STG44 as being the main inspiration for the AK, despite Kalashnikov's design sharing very little with the STG and a lot with the operating system of the M1, which the soviets had access to via lend lease)

Oy vey goyim a copy cat

"What should we name this gun?" "The Balishnikov." "That sounds too much like Kalashnikov." "Fine, how about Galil?" "Good enough."

@@neowisek7757 Who isn't?

I’m kinda surprised that the British didn’t relegate the Sten to reservists and resistance while adopting the Owen gun or something as standard-issue.

I think that's a bit of a stretch. Though the Lanchester, used by the Royal Navy, was quite literally a shameless copy of the MP28.

@@jimjam5239 I mean, there is the obvious lack of comfortable furniture on the Sten but mechanically they're the same. A simple blow-back submachinegun. Calling the Sten maybe more of a mass produced and gutted spin on the MP-28 is probably more appropriate than calling it a ripoff, though

Holy moly, that is awesome.

and the bipod doubled as wire cutters too

his last name was also balashnikov before changing it to galil (to avoid confusion)

The Galil is often issued to reservists troops, so it's not unusual for the reservists to keep the weapon at home, or carry it after training. Israelis aren't all drinking soda all the time, it's just the reservists.

Not to be outdone, Picatinny rail bottle openers are readily available.

Springfield is kind of trash everything they have is a copy of something.. and its worse

The Sten jammed during the assassination of Heydrich, but he later died of wounds from a grenade his partner had. So, the Sten was probably one of the worst designs to copy, but when you need a lot of guns, reliability will always play second fiddle to quantity in the field.

@@_Abjuranax_ I like your words, funny magic man

​@@tapferer.Toasterit is not just very simular to the G98, it's a shameless copy. 99% of this gun is just straight up copied.

@@mrsock3380 It seems that this channel tends to be a bit biased towards China in general.

Wow, PSA/Anderson only cost $3-400 here in the states when they're on sale. I wish we didn't ban the Chinese imports.

@@leileijoker8465 yeah, but sadly, as I said, once you compound US export fees, Italy's import/serialization/registration fees, and distributor's fees, a high-tier AR15 would end up costing almost twice as much, and a cheap one would end up being four or five times the price....which is why the vast majority of ARs you see here are chinese SDMs and Norincos, or EU-made Schmeissers, Hammerli and Oberland Arms, ADCs made in Italy, and very rarely some military surpluses from other countries

Indeed so I wouldn't call it a copy

Military weapons have been copied almost since the beginning of war. Rome copied the Celtic style of sword...

Yes, the Lanchester was the British 'version' of the German MP28 from which as you mentioned the Sten was copied from in certain design areas. This was due to the British not having any design experience making SMG's, so they studied captured German MP38's pressed into service as the Lanchester (primarily used by the Royal Navy) in order to learn how to make one under wartime conditions. Thats also likely why (as mentioned) the Sten had a side mounted magazine because the German MP38/British Lanchester did too.

Washington and New York are innovative names lol

The m60 only copied the top cover lift thing idea from the mg42 but the mechanism is more similar to the fg42

MG 8?

Old Chinese fighters (such as J-10, J-15 series) inherits the Russian MiGs and Sukhoi DNA. However the new stealth J-20 is a powerful domestically designed and built jet. Even though it looks like the F-22 Raptor, almost same specs as F-22, but that rumour of it being a copy of the Raptor is false. The J-20 was actually designed and planned to counter F-22 should the situation arise, therefore it has mostly almost-same specs as F-22. Take a look at Korea's new KF-21, it looks so much like the F-35 jets, and even though it has mostly the same specs as F-35 too, it is surely not a copy of F-35

The entire Chinese air fleet are copied from other countries.

F-17?

That only one copied weapon that isn’t trash

Do you really want to blame country which just want to have nuclear shield?

Even funnier is that the USSR made some changes in the design of the nuclear bomb using spies from the UK and American equipment (participated in the Manhattan Project)

Thats more of a myth. The Ak is far more similar to the STG44 than the Garande.

With AKs, it's a really unique situation. Almost feels like the AK is a "royalty free" gun

Well the Galil wasn't even based on the AK, since it was based on a rifle that was already an entirely separate gun that was only manufactured around the design of an AK... the RK62 is a much better gun compared to the AK47 it was copied and enhanced from. I've shot both (never shot a Galil though), and the Galil is even further from the AK. So it's definitely much more than a copy, even if the basic mechanisms and the silhouette are the same.
