    Hey my name is Hayden I have a school project regarding WWII and out of all the topics I could have chosen for WWII I decide to do it on weaponry like the weapons used by different countries. I figured out that there was no way for me to do it by my self and my friends. We don't have all the weapons or even a decent portion of the weapons. So I would like to recieve some help from other shooters that enjoy shooting WWII military weeapons. If ya'll could email me some videos of ya'll doing a basic review of the firearm, like the caliber it fires( if ya'll could show the round it would be nice), maybe talk about a few of the battles the rifle would play a part in, who used the Firearm(rifle/pistol/submachine gun) and even show you firing off a few rounds. Email all videos to me at Haydenpierce@e-hwpierce.com Thanks. If your video is selected it will be placed in the video we are making. I will also be happy to send you a copy of the final video. Thanks again and have fun shooting. Oh and I almost forgot the videos need to be in by May 26!!!

    I'll see what I can do, right now I just have an SKS. Nothing fancy, so I will work on trying to get something made for you.

    Try narrowing it to one country. Germany had some interesting pistols, rifles, machine guns and sub-machine guns.

    There were also some good British guns as well. You might consider some of the smaller participants like Italy, Romania or even Hungary and Check Republic.

    Internet searches and the public library may have some books (if they aren't banned) with pics and lists by country.

    Why make it so complex? It's just high school... do enough to get your paper and into college, then do enough to get your paper and go to a decent job. It's all a game, you win nothing for extra effort unless you are outside the game.

    Just look at anyone successful... you'll notice they worked for themselves, and didn't play the game.

    Start here
    List of common World War II infantry weapons - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    This is a good list of the weapons.

    The start pulling your info on a given type
    Say something like the revolvers of ww2 or the heavy machine guns of ww2

    Then hit youtube and start getting the videos you need.

    Just make sure you have permission from the owner of the video and you give credit where credit is due.

    Not quite. We're looking to go shoot a couple M1's and a Walter P38 this weekend. Unfortunately thats all the WWII firearms we have, but if any of ya'll live in the Arlington area and have WWII firearms like Nagants, Springfields, Kahr 98, Garand or any of the sort come out to the Winchester Gallerry off of lancaster and 820 either this saturday or sunday at around 3ish. My name is Hayden. If you have to just ask either one of the guys in the store or the range area where the bunch of teens went. Haha.:)

    Is there still time for me to get a video for you say by this weekend?

    I can get you one with the 91/30 and I am willing to spend a few 30 carbine rounds out of an M1 Carbine.
