What is the difference between 'machine gun', sub-machine gun and 'machine carbine'?

Frequently Asked Questions, 251 to 300
A carbine is a lighter, shorter version of a rifle, usually single shot in the context of WW1 or WW2. Machine guns are the full size, fully automatic fire guns like the Maxim, the Vickers, the Lewis and more recently the GPMG M60. Machine carbines are the smaller, lighter weapons like the Thompson, the Sten and the Owen. However the names 'sub-machine gun' and 'machine carbine' have now become almost interchangeable with common usage.

What Is The Best Caliber Gun To Use?

Sunset Outfitter Texas Deer Hunts,Mexico Deer Hunts,Rio Gran...
We have found many of the times it is not the size that counts so much it is the placement of the bullet which is far more important. You can shoot a deer or wild board with a 300 Win. or a 7MM Mag. but if you hit it in the gut it's going to run and we might find it or not. But if you use a 6MM or a .243 and hit a deer in the heart or neck and a wild boar behind the ear, there's a good chance you will have a trophy for your wall at home.

How do I add the mounted machine gun (mg42)?

Return to Castle Wolfenstein: nib's Mapper Resource Center
Very simple. If you're asking this question you haven't played around with the editor enough! :) All you have to do is right-click in the 2D window and choose misc->misc_mg42. It will only dipslay a square box, the gun only shows up in the game. If you don't want the tripod to be visible (i.e. you want to mount the gun on something yourself, use the "notripod" spawnflag in the properies window). Back to top

Can you tell me who did the engraving on a gun?

FEGA - frequently asked questions.
Possibly, but not always. We have a historical database of many engravers. While it deals mainly with American engravers, we have many international engravers listed as well. If a gun has some signature or marking, there is a good chance we can point you in the right direction. Many engravers sign their work in an obvious location, while some engravers are famous for hiding their signature somewhere in the design. Guns that have no markings are more difficult to determine who did the engraving.

How did the Twenty-One gun salute originate?

Frequently Asked Questions--Worcester
Here is the official explanation of the twenty-one gun salute, from the chief of the news branch of the U.S. Army Public Information Division: The firing of gun salutes dates back to the early days of the British Navy. At that time, guns could not be loaded quickly so the act of firing one in a salute indicated that the saluter had disarmed himself in deference to the person being saluted.

What caliber do you recommend?

Axtell Rifle Co, The Riflesmith, Manufacturer of 1877 Sharps...
We believe that the 45/70 is the best all around caliber. This caliber will perform accurately at 50 yards out to 1000 yards, depending on bullet weight and powder load. In the 1800's, Military forces also backed the 45/70. By their standards, it was the best firearm caliber available. Aside from accuracy and recommendations, the 45/70 also has the highest resale value of the black powder cartridge rifles. It is easily one of the most popular calibers to-date.

Why do you strike the water bottle fifty times after making a remedy?

Eagle Research LLC | Bruce Taylor CEO | Frequently Asked Que...
This is referred to as succussion. This striking of the bottle further dilutes the remedy thereby making it somewhat stronger (least is best). You do this fifty times when you first make the remedy. If using the remedy the next day, next month, etc., you then strike the bottle just twenty times in the morning and use it all day. When the fluid is down to 1/3rd in the bottle you fill the bottle again with distilled water and hit it fifty times. Back to Top | Back to FAQ

But why do this for only forty-eight weeks and not fifty?

Make the Rock Hall "Weird" - FAQ
Well, as ideal as it would have been to have such a project last for a forty-ninth and fiftieth week, unfortunately doing so would have taken us into mid-September. By then the nominating committee would have already made up its mind on whom to nominate. A postcard from, say, Mississippi would have been a moot point by then, and we simply didn't want to leave any Al fan behind. We wanted everyone to have a chance to show their support while it, hopefully, still mattered.

Gun? No... the first thing anyone needs to invest in is the mask. You'll need something comfortable, and has a good lens most of all.

And there are fifty-eight articles in here on the evolution of the immune system?

Kitzmiller v. Dover: Day 12, PM: Michael Behe

I haven't seen this article, but I assume that it's similar to the ones I presented and discussed in my testimony yesterday. A minimum of fifty, and you're right they're not all new.

Sorry for the long delay. In case you've forgotten, when we were last reading the Bible, Abraham was putting a knife to his wang. Well, now Sarah is promised a new son, and we reach the first exchange in the Bible where I actually laughed out loud. See, when Sarah, who is like old, hears this, she laughs and is like, "Yeah right!" And this displeases the Lord.

How many holes did Custer's buckskin coat have—gun, arrow, or lance?

NMAH | "Treasures of American History" FAQs
We doubt the Custer jacket in the Smithsonian collection ever saw battle. It has not bullet, lance, or arrow holes. The jacket was donated to the museum by Custer's widow Libby. As Custer was very interested in clothing he owned numerous jackets including the one in the collection. The small stains on the lapel are not blood but just deterioration from age.
