Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK has upgraded his background once again. (and has gotten a cold or something? Stay healthy)
Yeah, the UK is having an issue with the 100 day cough and other colds at the moment
It was only a matter of time before Johnathan got it
Protect jonathan at all costs 😡😡😡😡
@@albatrossjohnson^
@@albatrossjohnson i do not think he needs more protection, over 1000 unique guns and artillery pices and enough ammunition for a years' worth seige should be enough for a cold
@@taskfailedsuccessfully4791we still need him to be able to defend us 😅
Here we see Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries musuem in the UK is suffering from a cold or a cough.
Wish him a speedy recovery, lads.
Update: Ladies and gentlemen, we helped him got better.
Get well Jonathan
Get well soon Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK, which houses a collection of thousands of iconic weapons from throughout history.
imma have him in my prayers too
get well soon mr Ferguson.
Maybe he just had a long night out :D
There is a bit of an explanation to the MG-42 barrel swap. DICE are well known to be fans of Forgotten Weapons, and when Ian had an MG-42 he demonstrated the quick change barrel feature right after shooting, so the barrel was hot. Ian used a spent casing to pull out the hot barrel to demonstrate how it is done.
Ian is the best.
Who is Ian?
@@a7t0r98forgotten weapons real name is ian
@@mr.randomperson9900 oh his name is Ian? I never his name just knew he had that huge mustache.
@@a7t0r98 The guy who runs forgotten weapons. The guy with the pony tail and goatee.
He didn't even mention he was sick to try and get sympathy, what a trooper
That's because Jonathan doesn't get sick, sick gets Jonathan
@@connormartin1618 I freaking died lol
Get well soon Jonathan Ferguson, the Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries musuem in the UK 🙏

We all love Jonathan, but I also want to give a shoutout to Dave too. Not only does he have great chemistry with Jonathan, but it’s so cool to see how your knowledge has grown and how you start to point out things. This is one of the best series on CZcams, thank you so much for making it!
The series, and Loadout, were Dave's ideas as well :) I think it was his colleague Adam's idea to start including some of the discussion in the edit and I agree it works really well.
@@jonathanferguson1211 Great tidbits! And definitely the right answers.
Also, the king replies!
Hey GameSpot, you should definitely let Jonathan take a look at Hunt Showdown again. They keep adding so many cool variants to weapons, like the obscure loading mechanism for the Martini Henry
Yeah and maybe even look at some of the skins show different heat treatments and stuff like that!
just do a video where he reacts to every gun in the game
Yes definitely!
It would be a treat to see another episode on Hunt, but if you didn't know, he's done an in depth video on the magazine fed Martini Henry (Lee Metford) on the Royal Armouries channel.
Absolutely agree with this, more on Hunt Showdown please!
I have to say, the paint job on that Arisaka looked _really_ nice. It looked like someone had actually hand-painted the rifle white with a delicate sakura pattern, and then used the gun a bit resulting in a wear pattern.
It looks _real_ even if it may not be very _realistic_ to use an embellished rifle like this in combat.
Pity about the mistake with the cycling animation, though.
Of all the fine details that have been put into this game, of course it would be the one things flies back into the player’s face that makes it through
I also like its rearsight, which seems to be a high detailed model of a British target rifle sight for a No.4 rifle.
The detail of the vernier scales is nice and even the 6-hole adjustable size rear aperture is shown. I once had the even more sophisticated version, the infintely adjustable diaphram with slot in colour filters.
Sadly this is an error in the special skin, since the Chrysanthemum embellishment is extra, and instead of getting attached to the bolt in the skin setup, it got attached to the receiver. Oops.
@@alankertz5951It's also been changed to a cherry blossom instead of a chrysanthemum
was that related to cosmetic being the animation of the cockin? and they forgot to add the cosmetic inthe animation 🤔🤔
The LS M/26 was, on the one hand, spectacularly accurate, and as long as it was oiled and kept up, very reliable. On the other hand, it was heavy at 20 pounds unloaded, and ran a 20-round magazine(there was a later version that could take a 75-round drum but that was never used in Finland), and most importantly....had one hundred and eighty eight parts. It was a misery and a half to clean. The soldiers nicknamed it the "Assorted Mistakes", and much preferred captured Degtyarov DP-27.
In the game its also the worst LMG damage wise. If I remember correctly they buffed all the others but some reason did nothing to LS M/26 so its the hardest LMG to get kills in the Battlefield V
@@Wezqu That's not true
It has the same standard LMG damage (25.1 - 15 damage per hit) with a rate of fire slightly above average (most like the Lewis or Bren are between 500 & 550 rounds/minute, the LS26 shoots 600 rpm)
The gun solely gets held back by the rather high recoil & small magazine
If im remembering correctly, the MG 42 barrel change actually came from an older Forgotten Weapons where Ian did the same if not similar thing during a barrel swap
czcams.com/video/GfJkU4Sah8I/video.htmlsi=wH6OlI0RWkMMptyg 5:40. Not as slick as the one in game
@@SuitsTheRedcoat What a blast from the past! I'd totally forgotten about the old intro 😄
@@Pauna2896 Has that public-access television production quality to it
I think for the side by side grenade launcher being canted, is to give the player a visual aide that they're switched to the grenade launcher.. just in case.
If the sights were to be used with it, the lifted rear sight leaf could do that job. Although I understand that having to blindly predict the arc, learn it by feel or "walk" fire with several shots with grenade launchers is part of the typical balancing equation in arcadey games.
Pretty good finnish with Lahti-Saloranta. Great job.
Jonathan Ferguson may be the Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum in the UK, but he will always be the keeper of our hearts ❤❤❤
The Lahti magazine design gives me 40k bolter vibes.
Is there a Mrs. Ferguson, Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armories Museum in the UK, which houses a collection of thousands of iconic weapons from throughout history? Asking for a friend 😉
Im sure i remember him mentioning a wife before
There is a Keeper of the Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum in the UK. She holds thousands of hours of listening to tales about iconic weapons.
@@chasehoffman8057 *Throughout history
Are you suggesting that she is a larger lady, capable of housing a collection of thousands of firearms? Bit rude
I believe he mentioned about his wife during the Gears of War video, as a side note of the two of them putting hours into it together?
Jonathon mentioned the floaty bipods; I just want to mention that Battlefield 3 came out 12 years ago and the bipods would actually anchor down when deployed and pivot about their center. it looked really good and it does upset that we don't see that anymore.
Half-Life mod called Day of Defeat had that feature already in yearly 2000. It really felt like you were set on place having restricted movement in the horizontal axis and other times you could only hip fire the gun like in Battlefield V.
@@Wezqu Day of defeat: source also had that, and it was fantastic. Mounting up and mowing down infantry was such a fun experience
The Lahti almost looks like a gun from a comic or something. Almost looks like WH40k based the bolter off of it.
Petition to revisit Squad. They’ve added several new factions since the last video (USMC, Canadian army, Chinese army and marines, the Turkish army), in addition to re-working the infantry combat system, so it would be interesting to hear Jonathan’s take on that as well.
Has Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK ever reacted to the weapons, better yet, the upgrades in TABG (Totally Accurate Battle Grounds)? That thing's a fever dream
I really want him to do the guns of Enlisted.
Things like the PPD-1929 and the Maxim Tokarev would be awesome to see given a rundown.
The Lahti-Saloranta L26 was a really finicky piece of Finnish firearms' history. L26 was really maintenance intensive and jammed easily without proper maintenance. The best meme/rumor was, that a commander came to a LMG/MG unit and saw, that they hadn't used the "correct method" to maintain the L26. He was 100% sure the gun wouldn't fire and asked one of the gunners to shoot him at the cold weather of -40°C. The officer soiled his pants as the L26 worked flawlessly, because it had been maintained properly and it had been oiled with linseed oil instead of regular gun oil, because linseed oil was a better choise during those cold scenarios. The gunner shot at a pine over the commanders head.
Shame you didn't point out the mad-minute grip on the Lee-Enfield, it's a very interesting detail that many people missed.
Also our buddy sounds so sick. I'm in the same boat, get better soon!
Always excited every Saturday for these episodes :)
I can only speak as an former MG3 operator but, the barrel swap is not so easy. When the gun is canted to the left, it's very hard to get out with a casing. Therefore there are proper gloves issued with it.
And it will NEVER be this smooth of a swap 😀
As an mg3 gunner you should know it takes longer for it to over heat than the mg42.same gun. Just the mg42 is 8mm mauser.
@jerrynaylor4092 doesnt change the fact that it *will* overheat and require a barrel swap, its still an LMG. Personally ive always thought the belgians mastered the barrel swap with the FN MAG, making the carry handle also used for changing the barrel seems better than relying on a spent casing or asbestos gloves. But for its time, the 34/42's barrel swap was pretty clever
@@jerrynaylor4092You’re still instructed to swap after ~200 rounds. If your barrel is glowing,you’ve already damaged it beyond repair,which obviously isn’t great
the only effective way would be pointing the barrel to the up buit it's heavy
Forgotten Weapons be like:
The Nambu Type 1 utilized a pnuematic chamber to help reduce the tension of the action, according to gunwiki. The barrel itself stayed in place, but the front section came back with the bolt and returned forward with a return spring. It caught my eye too, so i had to check it out. Get better soon Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK !!
Love the content. Would also love to see the full rundown by Royal Armories of ALL the gear available to folks in Ready Or Not now that it is released. This includes the armor, and tactical equipment, as well as the guns. Think this would make a great string of vids that many from the Armories, including Jonathan could get involved in.
That mg42 barrel change was definitely referenced to Ian's Forgotten Weapons video, where i think he may have just improvised using a spent casing and may have also accidentally burned himself a little bit as well lol
Still hoping for that Valkyria Chronicles video. One of these days. Hopefully. Hope you get well soon, Jonathan.
If you ever do a part 4 of battlefield V, I’d like to see Johnathans take on the Johnson rifle and Bren gun.
Hope Jonathan Ferguson has a speedy recover but here is the lad sick on day of recording and still did it, wonderful. Hope you're well mate!
Always good to see you Jonathan! Wishing you many a throat lozenge from the other side of the pond.
That's a nice model of a Giant Wurzburg radar at 14:12.
PS - Jonathan get well soon.
I'd love to see Jonathan react to some more Hunt: Showdown. Some really neat additions have come to the game since the last time he reviewed it. Specifically the Vetterli "Cyclone", Martini-Henry Ironside (Side-Mounted Magazine), Drilling, and Derringer Pennyshot.
I'd also love to see Jonathan react to the various Bulletgrubber reload animations in the game, as they are very cool.
Does Jonathan get a list of firearms that are in the video so he can go and get them out of storage BEFORE recording or does he watch it, run through the shelves, find the gun and then talk about it? I just have an image of him going "we have one of these, one moment" then disappearing among the shelves and reappearing with the gun 😅
I’m pretty sure he said that he gets tips about the guns that will be viewed before the recording.
Pushing as always for you guys to have Jonathan cover Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter and to cover the M8 and MRI Caseless specifically as well.
I have been posting for you to do this in every video a year back now.
Great video. I'd formally like to suggest you guys do a video reacting to the firearms in "Holdfast: Nations at War" next. I think it would be cool to learn about Napoleonic era weaponry!
Johnathan wish you a speedy recovery brother
Thank you Jonathan Ferguson (and everyone at GameSpot) for another entertaining and informative video. I wish the Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum in the UK a swift recovery from their cold/cough.
Love this series. Keep it up y'all
back in the day we used our standard issue leather gloves to change the barrel of our MG3 when overheating, you wouldnt feel any heat, but it takes longer than in the game with the MG42, for which I assume they wouldve had gloves also
I really hope that Jonathon Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the royal armories Museum in the UK, which houses a collection of thousands of iconic weapons from throughout history makes a fast recovery 🫡
Johnathan, are you sick? If you are, i can hear it but it is nice from you that even tho you are not feeling well, you are making great videos for us!
Jonathan should look at the guns of SAO Fatal Bullet and COD Advanced Warfare
this makes me very happy to see! 100,000 people were playing this game a few weeks ago and ive been enjoying it very much
Aww, i was kinda hoping for Jonathan Ferguson, The keeper of firearms and artillery at the royal armouries museum in the UK to discuss the fact that the Lee Enfield is held in a mad minute style, probably see his mind blown or just talk about it in terms of historical accuracy/interesting points, maybe something for the Royal Armouries channel?
Sick Jonathan is much more frank than usual it seems, and honestly I’m here for it
Here's an neat episode idea. How about having Jonathan answering viewer questions about game guns and such?
id like to see jonathan critique the guns of enlisted; its got a lot of the historical classics (the garand, the stg44, etc) but also a few of the less famous guns in it (the johnson m1941, the volkssturmgewehr, etc) so it would maybe make an interesting video.
Why they put Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum in some kind of half-empty storehouse? And also he sounds kinda sick (of course, after they left him in such conditions - cold concrete room) get well Jonathan!
Because that's the backrooms of the museum
@@rubberwoody Oh no, Jonathan fell into the Backrooms!
Jonathan is a national 🇬🇧 treasure...send night nurse with immediate effect
So I have an example of a m28 tromboncino myself and you don’t need to depress the linkage. The pulling the trigger works fine.
Wishing for a speedy recovery Jonathan
Thank you Jonathan. These videos have always been a sort of a safe space to me, where i can just stop thinking about things and watch something combining two things i really like. My girlfriend, the love of my life, broke up with me a few hours ago and I've not been having a fun time, but getting home and opening youtube to seeing this video, it's really helped. So I say it again, thank you Jonathan.
Thank you Jonathan Ferguson, keeper of the arms and artilery at the Royal Armory in the UK.
Nice love the de lisle designed near me! Do Ground Branch when you get a chance, great game and weapon choice.
Your attention to detail is great and I hope you’re doing well now, John.
I’d love for Jonathan to look at Red Orchestra 2, that had the barrel change as well for the MG42.
wishing Jonathan Ferguson the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries musuem in the UK a speedy recovery. Always a good day when CZcams's curator gets a GameSpot video up.
Hope Johnathan is feeling ok he sounds like he has a bit of a cold, all the best from Serbia ❤
Another great video. Get well soon Jonathan. We love you ❤
it is imperative that we give Mr. Ferguson a speedy recovery immediately.
11:35 “Drilling” actually just means “triplet”; with “Zwilling” being “twin”.
The detail of the barrel change for the MG42 is also included in Easy Red 2
The Lahti-Saloranta reminded me that it'd be interesting to hear Jonathan's comments on guns in Enlisted. Especially some of the weirder or rarer stuff like Japanese SMGs (also has a type 1 and type 2) and the semi-auto rifles like the Armaguerra.
Near the end of Sino-Japanese war, a bunch of Type-2s were captured in the Northeast China and the local government built a .45 ACP version of it. The total number of the .45 variant is unknown, but you can literally see at least one sample in any mainland museum that has a civil war exhibit and they are always simply labeled as '.45 SMG'. There are even multiple guns that were converted to blank-fire only and you can occasionally see them in some TV shows.
Look at that detailed red hot Rückstoßverstärker on the MG42.
That's amazing
Mr Jonathan Sounds Sick, Hopefully he feels better soon!
I would love a S.T.A.L.K.E.R. video. Also, I wish Jonathan a quick recovery :)
Realistically the 42 should be doing a barrel change every 250 rounds. So it’s really just done for game balance.
Yep, most of the MMGs have an overheat mechanic to balance them
get well soon, Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK!
If memory serves me right the late R Lee Ermy did a show that showed the mg42 barrel being changed and they did use a spent cartridge in order to remove the barrel. Scratch that I've just saw another video that says it's a mix of what germans actually did and also a nod to forgotten weapons host ian
Jonathan sounds a little sick today. I wish him a speedy recovery :D
That's an interesting arisaka. I like mine though. Has to be somewhere mid war, still has the anti air sights but no monopod on it
I think Jonathan would like how enlisted depicted some firearms also how they do mounting
Example if you mount on a sketchy fence it’s not gonna be as good at damping recoil then a floor or a window also they got most things correct and have lack of site modifications
Both My brother and Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum in the UK (which houses a collection of thousands of iconic weapons from throughout history), seem to both be suffering from a cold or laryngitis, hoping for a speedy recovery!
With the Arisaka, it's also a sakura here, not a chrysanthemum. The proper chrysanthemum has 16 petals.
One of the few games I've seen where the bipod is pretty close to being fixed to the ground properly, and annoyingly so since you're forced to use it when prone which restricts your ability to reposition for a better line of sight, is theHunter Classic's Steyr Scout (ingame 7mm-08 Scout Bolt Action Rifle).
Get well soon Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum
Feel better Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the royal armouries museum in the uk which houses a collection of thousands of iconic weapons throughout history.
Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries musuem in the UK sounds really cool in this video
Loved seeing more battlefield V guns, but was wondering if you could update with time stamps for weapon names. I was only getting them from Jonathan saying them in passing, but there were some that were never named.
I like how every time we seem him, Jonathan's always in a different location in the armory.
Please have Jonathan check out the weapons of Squad 44, formerly Post Scriptum.
I don’t know if anyone has said anything but mg barrels can get cherry red before swapped. I’ve seen it happen before and had to change the barrel. It can be reused but normally the armorer checks it out first.
Having not played BF5 I appreciate these videos for shining a light on some of the more obscure weapons of world war 2. Having mostly played early Call of Duty games, you'd think it was all Garands, Karabiners and Mosin Nagants
CoD WW2, the last WW2 CoD, has a really nice list of obscure weapons and less used weapons, from the polish Blyscawica smg to german and soviet prototype rifles
When Jonathan is talking about the symbol on the back of the Arisaka, it reminds me, my great aunt has one that was captured during WW2, and it still has the symbol.
Jonathan what is your opinion on the new deagle that uses shortened shotgun shells
Bit of an old one, but would like to see you guys check out MOH: Airbourne
Has some wacky bits you can add onto the guns
I played that quite alot, not many of them are wacky as you think. Many of the upgrades are actually some addons feature of the guns itself but was rarely seen outside of pop culture except for the thompson, they turn it into the early model, the 1921 model with drum mag, compensator and etc. the upgrade i mentioned are the rifle grenade (i hear soldier dont use it on all the times cause it messes with accuracy), the scope, just to exemplify it. The wacky one i believe is the 64 rounds mp40 upgrade, cause i remember somewhere (probably here) that talk about it and the result is the dev took some liberty and do it wrong. Other than that, not alot really, probably the second one could be the magnum round for the colt (idk if it is possible).
I would suggest army of two, the first 2 games.
I'd like to see Jonathan review the guns of Prey (2017), Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare, Call of Duty: Black Ops Campaign, Classic Tomb Raider, The Callisto Protocol and/or Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth 👽🪖🔥💀🚀🐙
I still can’t believe there hasn’t been a CoD World at War episode yet
I'd love to see Hidden & Dangerous 2 featured on here.
Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK, which houses a collection of thousands of iconic weapons from throughout history. should do Metal gear solid 3, like snakes M1911 and Mk 22 tranq pistol. Ocelots Single action army and Makarov, Eva's type 17 Chinese pistol and the gun the Boss uses, the Patriot. Also an opinion on snake critiquing ocelots Makarov technique would be legendary.
Very nice. You know what else would be nice? Seeing Jonathan react to Criterion Games' Black's guns.
Can we do jonathan's reaction to guns in the video game enlisted! They are extremely niche, accurate and would love to see his take on him!
Please Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK, break down the weapons from *METAL GEAR SOLID 3* before the remake comes out.
So many weapons in MGS3 to react and comment on like the Patriot's infinite ammo magazine, the EZ tranq gun, Snake's customized officer M1911A1, Snake whittling the pistol grip to use a knife for CQC, Ocelot's SAA juggling skills, The End's paratrooper tranquilizer Mosin Nagant, the Davey Crockett recoil-less nuclear launcher and Eva's chinese mauser clone.
There are so many more other interesting trivias and weapons in MGS3 so please gamespot and Johnathan make a video for the game.
Could you please take a look at the division 1&2 Exotics and the outer worlds, please
would love to see you do the weapons in squad 44
Would be interesting to see him cover the "Gold Order" weapons from Enlisted, because almost all of them are uniquely different from the tech tree guns, usually obscure in general or prototypes
“This is Jonathan Ferguson”
Ahhh, sweet serotonin
