Which of these heavy hitters would you rather have if you couldn’t have them all? . Top to bottom: @springfieldarmoryinc SAINT Victor 308 Pistol, @ptrindustries 91 GI, @dsarmsinc Para FAL, and the @springfieldarmoryinc SOCOM 16. . If I had to go modern, I’d take the @springfieldarmoryinc SAINT Victor 308 Pistol. I’m a fan of the AR-15/AR-10 due to familiarity and how common parts are. So, that would likely be my choice if I had to have only one. I’m also a huge fan of the M-14, so the SOCOM 16 would be my runner up. . I’ve never really been a fan of the HK-91/CETME/G3 so that wouldn’t be a choice of mine. Not because it sucks or anything, it’s just the least favorite of mine when it comes to roller-locks. But, I’d take it over the FAL. As for the FAL, as I’ve stated a few times, I’ve just had nothing but bad luck with them when it comes to reliability, so that would be dead last on my list.

20th Century Small Arms: Alternate Histories, Counter Factuals, and Speculations

A reader of both the history of firearms, history, and science fiction generally leads to a collision of all three. I have discussed how many governments chose not to make changes in small arms. Light machine guns were seized upon with enthusiasm but not self-loading rifles. You start to think of “what ifs?”

The Third Reich wins World War 2 is a favorite of speculation. What if the Wehrmacht decided to go with Heinrich Vollmer’s ideas on an assault rifle in the middle 1930s? Could the Wehrmacht been able to take Moscow in 1941, thereby disrupting the Soviet Unions rail lines? Rail lines were like spokes from Moscow. Take Moscow and movement of supplies becomes far harder for the Soviets.

What if the French had gone with something like the self-loading MAS 49 instead of the clunky bolt action MAS36? You might have seen the German army casualties climb precipitously in the Battle of France. Perhaps enough to slow down the Germans and give France a breathing space.

John Pedersen attempted to sell the idea of his self-loading rifle using .276 caliber cartridges to Vickers in late 1920s. The image came to my mind of Anglo-Indian troops piling up dead Japanese Imperial Army troopers at the Jitra Line in Malaya in December 1941.

Pedersen Rifle

Also, what if the U.S. Army decided to put off a self-loading rifle during the 1930s. You have a situation of the U.S. Army fighting almost exclusively with the venerable Springfield ’03.

The Royal Netherlands Indies Army had a contract for the Johnson rifle. 2,000 had been delivered before the Netherlands East Indies was overrun by the Japanese in early 1942. The KNIL might have give a better accounting of itself had it been armed with the Johnson rifle.

Johnson M-41 Rifle

All the alternate histories I have seen so far by Gingrich and Turtledove have the Japanese sink the entire U.S. Fleet on December 7, 1941 and overrun Hawaii and parts of Australia. I would be interested in seeing a counterfactual where everything goes wrong for the Japanese. No humiliation of the Europeans in the Far East means a possible extended colonial period.

S. M. Stirling does have small arms alternate scenarios with his Draka series. The Draka are the descendants of a fusion of South Afrikaners and Loyalist Americans with some exiled Confederates later. As someone put it on a forum, the Draka have a crystal ball and always a generation ahead on weaponry, technology, and tactics.

Striling has the Draka develop a sub-machine gun in 1891. The T-5 rifle using a 7.5 x 60 mm cartridge is adopted in 1906 and used in WW1.

Marching Through Georgia has the Draka attacking the Third Reich after the Third Reich has conquered the European portion of the Soviet Union in WW2. The Draka paratroopers use an assault rifle (the Holbars T-6) that fires a 5 x 45 mm cartridge and uses 75 round drum.  It makes for interesting reading, but I do have some problems. One is the idea of transplanting American Loyalists to South Africa instead of Canada. Governments generally look to cut costs when to their benefit. Shipping allies after losing a war half way across the world is not going to fly.

Militaries have a tendency to be conservative and stay with what worked the previous war. I find it hard to believe that Draka generals would constantly be looking for the next generation of rifle. That is just not how history works.

I have read one story in Larry Correia’s Monster Hunter International series and none of the novels. Larry likes and knows guns. Monster Hunter International is on my plate for reading in the future.

Last week I mentioned about the future and Fourth Generation warfare. I have come across a couple of items that show that great minds think alike.

First, CZ has the Scorpion EVO 3 S1 carbine. This beauty uses 9 mm pistol rounds, has a 20 round magazine, and weighs 6 lbs. I could see police using this in the more dangerous cities.

CZ-Scorpion-EVO3-S1-Carbine

The other item is Springfield Armory’s Saint Victor line of weapons. The Saint SBR (Short Barreled Rifle) is essentially a carbine firing the 5.56 NATO round on an AR platform. The Saint AR-15 “pistol” come in two versions. One fires the 5.56 mm round, another fires the .300 BLK. The .300 BLK is a 7.62 x 35 mm cartridge. We are getting back into the M-1 carbine area. In theory, this round is heavier hitting than the 5.56 NATO.  The Saint AR-15 weighs only 5 lbs 9 oz.

The .300 BLK might be a good cartridge for para-military/ constabulary/gendarmes/ marechaussee in the future battling urban gangs.

William Lind has written on gangs:

            “As states continue to weaken, more and more of them will confront rising gang violence and consequent declining civic order. The state’s first responsibility is the maintenance of order. It was for that purpose the state arose, and if it cannot do the job its legitimacy will vanish.

The question then becomes how to restore order. The only possible answer is, by any means that will work. If the state is still capable of it, bloody repression has much to recommend it. But a growing number of states will not be capable of it, either because they are too weak physically or because the state leadership is too weak morally.”

We could be entering the golden age of the carbine.

The article "Does This Supplement (or Replace) Your Pistol?" by Adam Scepaniak, published on The Armory Life, explores the role of a flashlight as an essential tool in one’s everyday carry (EDC) setup, especially in environments where carrying a concealed carry weapon (CCW) pistol is prohibited. During a visit to Where Our Families Train (W.O.F.T.) in Florida, Adam discusses insights shared by Philip Toppino, emphasizing that a tactical flashlight can serve as a viable defensive tool. The article highlights the benefits of a flashlight, such as disrupting an attacker's OODA loop and remaining unobtrusive in non-permissive areas. It concludes by advocating for the flashlight's supplementary role in self-defense alongside other tools like pepper spray and knives.
