The primary German semi-auto battle rifle of WW2 is honestly a terrible design. Due to its relative scarcity, and country of origin, it has acquired a status that is not deserved - it's a very flawed design and this video discusses those issues.
Some errata:
At 6:49 I refer to the folded/weld point as a crack, which it is, but is part of the manufacturing process. That said, that is a definite weak point and that welding point absolutely cracks further under use.
I make a statement that no one copied this design post war, which was ALMOST correct - the Brazilians did with their M954. Briefly. Whoops. Maybe Taurus can release it as a retro rifle series. :p
