M1 carbine

Boom! I fall to the ground; there's ringing in my ears. The artillery has bombed another trench yet again (Young 28). My m1 Garand is twelve feet away from me, and the trenches are filling with shrapnel. More explosions are bound to come, so I crawl to my Springfield semi-automatic (m1 Garand), still with the smell of gunpowder and smoke in my nostrils. But I continue to go get my gun I grab it and shoot the Germans pouring in the wood rotten trenches. Then I get out of the trench someone yells my name, ”VICTOR GET DOWN!” Enemy snipers are in the bunkers, along with the enemy artillery. At that moment I remember my dad lost his life in WW1 when I was just a toddler. Then John’s shot in his brain, Hell that's another death with more to come.…

From the trapdoor, the U.S. created the .30 caliber M1 Garand created by John Garand. It was the first semi-automatic rifle in the world to be used by infantry. The M1 Garand was used during World War One. Almost immediately after World War One Springfield Armory in the 1930’s looked to fix the problems…

In the aftermath of World War II, the U.S. Military was desperately in search of a serviceman rifle that could put rounds on target at extreme distances, just as the M1 Garand did during the war. In 1958, Eugene Stoner, the head engineer at the small arms engineering company- ArmaLite, came up with the company’s fifteenth rifle project: the AR-15. (Ar15.com, 2014) Soon after the rifle’s birth, the U.S. Military adopted the AR-15 in a fully automatic version known as the M16. The M16 allowed…

I logged into Unturned on the beautiful, tropical island of Hawaii. The sun was already coming up, smiling from its nap. I'm the only one at the outpost my team has found to reuse as a checkpoint. The rest of the unit is either on patrol duty or scavenging for supplies, since we've only received one airdrop from H.Q. all month, I fear that the eastern raiders have sabotaged our supply line. I was tasked to finish the new wall to create two lines of defense. The new wall would be on the outside…

it had too much recoil and weighed too much for an efficient submachine gun. The MP5 improved upon this by making a small caliber machine gun that is compact, light, and reliable. Guns would be changed slightly to accommodate more modern attachments, but most guns would stem of similar designs to HK's. Gunships or attack helicopters would be changed as well with the addition of the AH-64 or the Apache in 1984.9 The Cobra was a smaller more nimble gunships but lacked the power to carry large…

AR-15 and Attachments The myth, the legend, the weapon. The AR-15 is a style of semi-automatic/automatic rifle that is used in civilian and military applications. The first design was actually named the AR-10 and was submitted to replace the M1 Garand but, lack of time and testing before military trials didn’t allow it to be adopted as the new military rifle. In 1956 the time was right for a new smaller caliber rifle and the AR-15 was designed and built by Armalite. Three years later the…
