It's so good to see Jonathan Ferguson the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armories museum in the UK home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history
Well, to be perfectly honest in my humble opinion without being sentimental, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in distinct perspective and without condemning anyone's view and by trying to make it objectified and by considering each and everyone's valid opinion I honestly believe that Jonathan Ferguson the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armories museum in the UK home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history is a nice sight to behold.
*armouries
He’s British
@@jayaang4176nobody’s perfect
You don't have to be so formal. You can just call him Jonathan History
@@jamescameron6819 sorry, but formality is most tasteful for one of such esteem as Jonathan Ferguson the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armories museum in the UK home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history
Jonathan with two Vectors. He must have been feeling like its Christmas, or his birthday
Hehe... KRISSmas
@@christophstutteregger3840hahahaha
@@christophstutteregger3840 Heh too bad it's not made on Father's Day
Blessed be the holy .45 acp
He turned into 106 for a sec.

"TWO KRISS Vectors? At THIS time of year, in THIS part of the world, located ENTIRELY within the Royal Armouries Collection?"
"Yes!"
"May I shoot them?"
"No."
I understood that reference.
akimbo them for that mw2 vibe
Aw its a shame Dave didnt make fun of that super long Vector being called the "CQC" version in game. For some reason Ubisoft keeps making the CQC versions of their guns super long.
Doesn't it stand for Curiously Quite Collosal?
If the barrel takes up more space, then it makes the quarters even closer so it'll work gooder! It's genius!
I was hoping they'd show that joke one-off airsoft Vector with the 30 something inch barrel
@@scarlettNET Just grab a Gustav Gun and you can engage in CQC with enemies in a completely different trench
@@IrregularDavelol that's good
That is such a flex to be able to say "If you let me shoot it, I'll call it even." to Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armories museum in the UK, which houses a collection of thousands of iconic weapons throughout history
It's a happy day if I'm able to see Jonathan Ferguson the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armories Museum in the UK wich houses a collection of thousands of iconic weapons from throughout history. Never even consider to make this series stop.
props to Jonathan for shouting out Ian
They were doin the ian mccollum too
TWO Vectors and a Colin Furze reference!? What an episode!
You know what’s really sad? Ghost Recon, and Tom Clancy games in general, have up until recently had these tried and tested models along with fun experimental weapons ingame. The XM29 OICW. The XM8. The conceptual Modular Rifle-Caseless. The RX4 Storm. They all appeared in Ghost Recon, and it was fitting as the Ghosts are (or were) essentially a test-bed force for new gear.
There’s not a lot of that these days. Sure, there’s plenty of new weapons like the Scorpio or the MSR, even the ACR, but we don’t see a lot of state-of-the-art stuff anymore.
well it's not the early 2000s any more and firearm design has pretty much plateaud on the AR-15.
The NGSW would make sense in this game, maybe even the RM277 bullpup that lost the competition.
@@stevemc6010 Plateu’d for now… that said it’ll probably be a good while until that changes. It’s a shame, really. It ends up kinda making everything look the same. Heck, folks are too scared to let their imagination work.
And oh GOD yeah, the NGSW would’ve been great.
@@skootmeister3994I know it's for practical reasons that many new rifles are AR derivatives but to me they are so lame because they don't have personality like cold war guns did
@@the_neo_crusader FAMAS, FAL, G3, and a plethora of others.
It’s enough to get you interested in the weird and whacky. Wildlands was the last game to really do all that with its selection. (Granted some of the options were in the territory of ‘dafuq?’)
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, Eva's chinese Type 17 mauser clone with her "bandit shooting" technique and Volgin's electricity discharging the 7.62mm bullets.
There are so many more other interesting trivias and weapons in MGS3 so please Dave and Johnathan, please consider making a video for the MGS3.
What a thrill it'd be.
Maybe they will do it when the remake drops, otherwise I think they would've done a MGS 3 episode already.
@@heartstone44 Don't say that. I'm still in a dream.... Er, I mean, let us dream.
Remember to ask Dave not Jonathan he's the one who decides the videos.
Jonathan himself has stated he has not played the series but is entirely down to do so it's just on Dave now.
That’d be pretty good
Please show Jonathan (Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum in the UK) the Valkyria Chronicles series, would be great to see his reaction.
You know, aside from the guns, I would like to hear what Dr Toby Capwell has to say about the uniforms of the different factions in the series, like the Gallian militia, army, Federation forces, Imperial forces, I'm sure he''ll have plenty to say.
Would be super interesting to see what he think about all the base weapons and their upgrade path since they are mostly quite plausible looking but once upgraded they tend to get all kinds of add ons, increase a lot in size and lenght. Also definetly we need his reaction on anti tank lances and since he's also keeper of artillery also all the new mortors featured in 4.
awesome that this series has helped the museum expand its collection
Please show Jonathan Ferguson the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armories museum in the UK, the guns of Cruelty Squad. That game is like the Gorbino's quest of life.
I like using the long Vector with grenade launcher because it's the closest thing you can manage in Breakpoint to an M41A Pulse Rifle.
Hey! They got Kriss Vectors! Johnathan was lamenting that he didn’t have one about a month ago, so I guess they managed to source a couple
15:53 Makes me smile that this show, Dave and the fans made getting the two Vectors add to the Museum collection. I can imagine how happy Johnathan was to get them. Maybe look at Ghost Reacon Wildlands in the future? Thought that would be looked at prior to Breakpoint.
16:06: Dave speaking what we were all thinking 😂
As soon as Mr Ferguson mentioned attaching a jet engine to a bicycle I thought "Furze already did that. And a go-kart." I'm surprised he hasn't done a shopping trolley yet but there's time. Fortunately the closest he's got to firearms is a firework launcher. So far...
I'd like to see a part 2 of this. Breakpoint has added a lot of modern (military) guns to the game, there's likely a couple the Royal Armoury doesn't have yet. The weapon customisation isn't fantastic, you usually have the same attachments available for every gun. Not many different/gun or brand specific attachments. Still, a lot of nice modern guns to show off here.
I’d love to see Jonathan react to the guns of Cruelty Squad!
Second this. For such a bizarre art direction there's some great representations of real world firearms.
That might be too cruel.
we used to have a Valmet as well, although it was a tractor, since Valmet has made all kinds things of during the years. I guess it's kind of fitting for Valtion Metallitehtaat (State Metal Works). Valmet is still around, but they don't make guns anymore and the tractors are now made by a separate company called Valtra.
Cruelty squad has a lot of very interesting guns based on real prototypes that would be fun to see a reaction to
Please dont subject Jonathan to Cruelty Squad, he doesn't deserve that
With how many times Ian from Forgotten Weapons has been mentioned, methinks it's high time for an episode of Firearms _Experts_ React, featuring both Ian _and_ Jonathan Ferguson, 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
I really enjoyed Breakpoint, to me it felt really underrated. Not perfect or anything like that, but I enjoyed it for what it was. Glad to see it getting a little love from this series.
I’m always impressed by his comprehension of video games, maybe he’s a gamer but if he isn’t it’s nice that he takes the time to understand the games he’s reviewing
Oh look, someone remembered that breakpoint exists.
fr
FINALLY. I want a part 2.
Glad to see Jonathan Ferguson, Keeper of firearm and artillery at the Royal Armouries museum in the UK, finally having his KRISS Vectors
I'd be as happy as he is if he reviewed the guns from the Deus Ex series!
as an HK fanboy I truly love how many are in Breakpoint. and as a Half Life fanboy I was beyond thrilled to have a USP Match with a silver slide.
Jonathan is my Idol I hope to achieve his level of knowledge on the subject matter of firearms one day.
You can do it Mel!
His book Thorneycroft to SA80 is incredibly comprehensive and is a testament to his knowledge and expertise
I always look forward to these videos! I love seeing Jonathan Ferguson, keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armories museum in the UK, home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history!
Now that we have Ghost Recon on the mind can you go back to Advanced Warfighter and have Johnathan cover the MRC Caseless Rifle and the M8 series of weapons more in depth please? I have been asking about this for nearly two years now on each video.
Yes! I've been waiting for Jonathan to take a look at this game. I'm not surprised at all that he's played it, because despite it's weird quirks it's an amazing gun nerds game.
Please do more videos on Breakpoint! There's still a lot of interesting guns left.
This makes me wanna play again. Also cool to see the dual Vectors added to the collection, cheers to that! 🍻🍻
14:45 This as a picture. Is *badass.*
Although a much older polymer and fiberglass ive examined a FN made FAL that was initially purchased by Israel. The normally black fiberglass and polymer had faded to a dark green.
so happy to see my namesake finally covered in one of these videos
While not a traditional jet engine, my grandfather strapped an improvised pulse-jet/ramjet hybrid to his bysical when he was a teenager. Apparently used a barn full of hail to stop.
I’m still hoping to see Jonathan react to homefront and him seeing the character remove the top receiver of the pistol mid fight and switch it out
shooting a right handed weapon from your left shoulder shall from now be known as "doing the Ian McCollum"
I love Johnathan Ferguson the keeper of firearms and artillery at the royal armories museum in the UK home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history
But Jonathan, an m203 on my SMG means I can break contact from hostiles father than my bullets can reach, or lay my own smoke to get closer
I'd love to see Jonathan Ferguson the Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Amouries museum in the UK react to the guns in Generation Zero, they look good and i personally like them also the experimental weapons and the weapons from the robots too
The armed airborne drones in Breakpoint do perform some extreme evasive manuvers in combat. And considering there is one kind with some decent armor,high agility and two pistol caliber rotary machine guns, you will attempt anything to up the likelihood to hit. Current drones may not take that much to down but that thing takes anywhere from 3 to 15 hits with an assault rifle to down.
This is Jonathan Ferguson…I like to think he now responds in the third person if anyone asks his name.
Breakpoint is such a good game, so its great to see Jonathan looking at these!
It really is. After all of the fixes it's a better stealth game than Metal Gear Solid V.
@@TheFirstCurse1Hell no it isn’t.
I heard this game really shines when you put it in survival difficulty with the hud off
@@theramblinmahoney2316 Yes it is. The game is actually difficult and the bases are brilliantly designed. MGSV is far too easy even with the smallest amount of equipment possible and the bases are almost all terrible besides maybe 4-6 of them.
@@viziontrex It does. It feels so badass and cool.
Glad i keep showing up! I wanna come visit your location, i made it to the white tower on my last trip so i was able to see some of the flintlocks, cannons and mortars!
Just started playing this again so great to see a video on it
I'd love to see Jon and Dave go through Operation Flashpoint. Arguably the first milsim game, and has a very specific timeframe of 1985.
If there is another episode, I hope that Jonathan is shown one of the two revolvers and that the biggest pet peeve of mine is caught: The sound of bullet casings hitting the floor after each shot…
Having said that, this is still one of my top 5 favorite games. Just loads of fun.
Shoutout to Valmet's actual tiny rear apperture sight that for once doesn't look like a ghost ring!
Very happy that they have 2 pieces of the coolest MP ever (The Kriss Vector). Such a masterpiece that gun.
This man is the final word how a game implements a firearm.
Studios would be smart to get Johnny Fergs in on their production pipeline for guns, he's fantastic.
Really nice. Love to see you guys cover the weapons of the Brothers in Arms series.
Jonathan should look at the guns of SAO Fatal Bullet and COD Advanced Warfare
Black Ops 3 over Advanced Warfare. The guns are so much better and cooler.
@@TheFirstCurse1 Advanced Warfare has the real AK-12 not the dumpster fire that was finally adopted as the AK-12.
I love how happy Jonathan is to finally have some vectors in the collection
i wish the marine corps would update the m27, it’s currently a great rifle i love it but the quad rail is extremely unnecessary & fatigues many after long usage along with our annoyingly heavy KAC suppressor & PEQ-16’s as well as our SCO’s. Some dudes are getting an 11.5 variant which is way lighter and i feel still works in our role/mission set, especially with the suppressor aiding with recoil compensation & muzzle velocity a bit. the lowers are also newer on those models with enlarged bolt releases & a bit of a flare around it to easier actuate on an empty reload; appreciate all ya do Mr Fergerson 🤘🏽
Really enjoyed this one, as always
It's sooo cool seeing him hold something like that... Over in England...
Contractors VR would be cool to see
I feel like we need to have him react to Easter egg weapons like the finger gun in battlefield or whatever game had the unicorn that shoots rainbows out the back 😂
That unicorn gun was in red faction Armageddon .
Brandon Hererra's AK-50 lol. that would be a cool review
I'd love to see Metal Gear series, especially MGS 3 and or 4
I should actually pop by since I live really close, would be cool to go see the museum and also Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armouries museum in the UK home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history
Yes. Yes you should
@@IrregularDave Nice to get a reply, might hop by soon mate
You know its a good day when gamespot uploads a video starring Jonathan Ferguson, 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
I think itd be cool to see Johnathan react to COD Zombies wonder weapons
still waiting for that republic commando video
I love Jonathan Ferguson, the Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armories Museum in the UK, home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history. I'm a big fan of Jonathan Ferguson, the Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armories Museum in the UK, home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history, and I always enjoy watching videos starring Jonathan Ferguson, the Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armories Museum in the UK, home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history.
Thanks, GameSpot, for posting another nice video featuring Jonathan Ferguson, the Keeper of Firearms and Artillery at the Royal Armories Museum in the UK, home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history.
i love the maxim 9, didnt know it was in the game, probably added it after launch. i have one for airsoft and it's just lovely
Please have Jonathan cover the guns of Squad 44, formerly Post Scriptum.
Wish I knew half of what Jonathan knows about Firearms🧐 Another Great Video 💯 , Thanks for Sharing 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Interesting, I thought the 7.62 version of the Minimi was called the Maximi.
That's actually the Australian designation of it, *not* the FN Herstal name of it surprisingly.
I'd assume its "Mini" for the same reason as a "Minigun": it's relative to the .50 M2 that Browning also made.
@@concinnus they are completely different designs. Unrelated to one another.
Ooo i think Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armories museum in the UK home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history, is referring to project grayburn! @11:55
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR BREAKPOINT TO BE ON THIS FOR SO LOOOOONG, LET'S GOOOO
I appreciate Dave changing the outfits per gun, especially the first two
Covered some excellent weapons this episode. More breakpoint please?
What a tease about that trial, Jonathan Ferguson the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armories museum in the UK home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history.
I'd love to see Johnathan 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, take a look at Build Engine games. Between Duke 3D, Shadow Warrior, Blood and Ion Fury I think there's a pretty grand spectrum of wild weapons there he'd have a lot of fun delving into.
I see Bloodborne 👀
And I would kindly suggest ArmA 3: SOG Prairie Fire. It's a unique take on the Vietnam War and features weapons rarely seen in any other game, I'm sure Jonathan would enjoy reviewing it. Especially a certain aussie modified full-auto FAL...
I hope that one day I can be as knowledgeable in my field as Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armories Museum, home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history
Jonathan 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 FINALLY got Kriss Vectors for the Royal Armories Museum in the UK which houses a collection of thousands of iconic weapons from throughout history!
I would love to have a Vector, but just can't get past the fact that I'll be limited to semi-auto on something that was designed specifically to be an SMG. The 10mm version would be the one I go for, if one day I do end up being able to get properly licensed and all that to own full-auto firearms.
Also like the shotgun there at the end, despite the odd setup especially with the knife on the grip, because it showcases that shotguns will indeed drop a person at further distances than right in front of your face like most games have them (mostly for balance reasons I assume).
Doing a Ian McCollum; everyone's favourite Disco dance move of 1980
What they forgot to mention is that the long barrel vector with the grenade launcher is called a "Vector SHORTY" ingame
Another interesting detail is that if you had the perk equipped that increased your reload speed, it would make the character load multiple shells in with a singular motion. Similar to how they load shotguns in sport shooting.
Still wanting to see Wildland here, please.
Needs a part 2 cause there is so many firearms and varieties of said firearms
Hearing that Jonathan Ferguson the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal Armories Museum in the UK home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history now has two more firearms under his keepership thanks to a bunch of bored gamers on the internet warms my heart. And on that point, having the extended rail on the Vector to go around that big chunky suppressor is probably not an unwise thing to do.
Id love to see Jonathan Ferguson (the keeper of firearms and artillery at the royal armories museum in the UK, home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history) on demo ranch
Jonathan Ferguson, the keeper of firearms and artillery at the Royal armories museum in the UK, home to thousands of iconic weapons throughout history, does not ramble. He informs and leaves you to determine which facts you require to keep.
Man I'd like to work with jonathan. Just imagine studying and maintaining the guns to a prisitine condition and knowing the history and stuff.
YAAAAYYY JONATHAN GOT HIS VECTORS
Please can jonathan take a look at the guns from the division 1&2 particularly the exotics
Seeing Jonthan react to the guns of fallout makes you wish for him to go to the Chernobyl exclusion zone and see what guns the stalkers are using
As a leftie using a bolt action is a pain lol. have to get fully off target to work the bolt.
Skill issue
or just get a lefty action, one of my buddies has a mirrored Tikka.
18:45 Finally someone noticed this. It's so annoying as the oversight is always in your face when shooting the belt fed.
It's extra frustrating when in the previous installment, Wildlands, the belt moves and depletes as your fire the guns.
Would love to see him cover Generation Zero's guns
Honestly it'd feel like Christmas if Jonathan Ferguson and Zach Hazard did a collab I know it's not gonna happen but a person can dream
9:58 That quite an interesting HK barrel on Jonathan’s HK416A5 examples. Isn’t that one of the AR barrels that is being fitted on the HK416A8s?
The idea behind the paint jobs is they are "in the field" rattle can. Yes you can do some crazy prestige patterns, but that's mostly because it's a game.
