Ян рассказывает, как французские солдаты методом изыскательного тыка нашли способ намертво заджемить две винтовки MAS-36 на фиксаторах штыка.

Ex-Military Armorer here.
Things I ve seen in 12 Years of service:


-using the front sight of a pistol as a bottle opener
-using the barrel of a rifle to break down a door... and the barrel
- using the barrel of a rifle to hide a cigarette butt
- shooting Live ammo through a presure device for blanks (MG 42 style Machine gun)
- using a machine pistol (uzi style) as a hammer
- using engine oil as a lubricant
- ripping the cleaning kit chain in the middle of the barrel, obstucting it with half a chain and cleaning wicks
- changing a hot red machine gun barrel without gloves (3dr degree burnings) and dropping the hot red barrel in snow.
- handing in 120 rounds of life ammo that someone forgott in his backpack
- getting handed a weapon that was (quote) "more or less loaded"


And many more I ´ve forgotten by now
