Good video, although the “polymer melts causing inaccuracy” bit is still disputed. As far as I know in the German military lawsuit against HK, there was no testing provided showing that, and HK provided the initial adoption results and standards in its defense.
The melting is essentially a supposition that has been treated as fact.
Knowing how knowledgeable Ahoy seems to be about weapon history, I feel like he was being extremely cheeky about that in the video. Near the end, “It wasn’t perfect. It melted sometimes.”, and, “The G36: …Cool.” had me cracking up.
It felt more like a joke that presumed the melting was true, rather than a joke at the accusation. A subtle but important hair to split.
Just knowing about the controversy is already deep lore on the G36 and these videos are aimed at a causal audience.
