Some of these are well known. The Type 100 is a requirement for any ww2 shooter taking place in the pacific and is the go to smg option for japanese factions like how the Thompson is the default american smg in said games or the mp 40 for the German faction. The fg42 is the gun given to elite German units in video games taking place on the western front of ww2, usually in later missions as a way to convey fighting elite units and making the game harder. The kolibri and hellrigel were made well known by BF1, the kolibri as a meme weapon and the hellrigel as being a very power weapon in the assault class, the federav automant also getting some noterity from that game but also the game hunt showdown where it is a unpredictable terror.

Though it also kinda gave a new perspective of the whole series for some of us - DICE can't seem to design a FPS that's not just a reskin of the WWII-era combat (with choppers for a splash of 'Nam). Case in point: SMGs (and high RoF ARs) are meta all the time, despite the fact that SMGs haven't been relevant outside the criminal & law enforcement circles since ballistic armor and weapon ranges of 300+ meters became the norm (the latter of which DICE has refused to acknowledge... ever; they seem to think war is still fought at the 50m average ranges of WWII combat).

Just look at what happened with rifles alone. In 1936-40, the M1 Garand was easily the most advanced infantry weapon fielded by any nation in the entire world. Only a few years later, it'd essentially be rendered outdated due to the MP-43/44 which ended up starting the end of the heavy caliber battle rifle and the beginning of the lighter caliber assault rifle becoming the standard infantry weapon worldwide to this very day.
At 16:00 the Volkssturmgewehr is translated as Peoples(Volk) Assaultrifle(Sturmgewehr). While this is correct in grammar, it’s name actually came from the Volkssturm(the Homeguard) Gewehr(Rifle). Meaning it’s the Rifle of the Homeguard, not an Assaultrifle. It’s a bit confusing since the Homeguard is named Volkssturm. Edit: Timestamp correction

I think the most distinctive thing about the MAS-38 is its stock/recoil system. Rather than an inline path of travel for the bolt the '38's bolt reciprocates at an angle to the bore axis. The extra force required to push the bolt at an angle acts as a slight delay to lower the rate of fire and allows it to use a slightly lighter bolt than would be required from a more conventional action in the same cartridge. It's a really interesting SMG from the design perspective. Easily in the top 5 most unique SMGs of its era.
The use of the De Lisle didn’t end with the end of W.W.II, the weapon went on to be used in both the Korean War and the Malayan Emergency, there’s also rumours that the British SAS made use of the weapon in the early days of the troubles in Northern Ireland. Here’s another nobody has ever heard of even though it was officially adopted by the U.S. military, the Hyde-Inland SMG which was officially designated as the M2 SMG and was supposed to replace the M1 Thompson, only around 400 were ever produced, the contract was cancelled when the M3, an even cheaper design, came along.

People can’t figure out how the hellriegel works as a blowback weapon but I think it’s cause the gas block is also the sides of the mag well. It would make sense that it has double sided gas transference as the 2 prongs sticking out of the back are it’s buffer springs, 2 spots for the gas to blowout=2 springs for retention Using 2 also allowed them to be smaller to fit the sub machine gun profile
27:44 Not true, the darts in the H&K P11 are in a five shot module and that module can be replaced. (Reloading that module must be done at the factory.)
Then again, if the Kolibri was meant to be carried in a handbag, 9 times out of 10 any self defence engagement would usually be within arms reach. So technically it didn’t need to be rifled.

One "Rare Gun" I was hoping you would cover here is the Dardick Model 1500. Designed by David Dardick in the late 1950's, it used triangular shaped ammunition called "trounds." According to Wikipedia, this innovation ". . . allowed the firearm's chamber to be open on one side, removing the requirement for reciprocating motion when chambering and ejecting a cartridge." Hopefully, Simple History will cover this oft-overlooked weapon and its designer in a future video. That said, I found this video to be interesting and informative - as are most Simple History videos.

I like how almost, if not all of these guns are well known because of video games.
Love the relation to the Hellriegel 1915 in the mystery box that's a custom modded weapon from custom zombies, I see that you're a custom zombies fan for whoever made the thumbnail!
I bet Ian from Forgotten Weapons has a video for every weapon mentioned
Dude, some of these are actually known for appearing in either Battlefield or Call of Duty. The Japanese Type 100 appeared in both franchises (BF1942, BF1943, BFV:WITP, COD WAW, and COD:V), the German FG-42 also appeared in both franchises (BF1942:SWOWWII, BFV, COD:UO, COD 2, COD 3, COD WAW, and COD WWII), the Austro-Hungarian Hellriegel appeared in BF1, the French MAS-38 appeared in COD 2:BRO, the British De Lisle carbine appeared in BFV, the Austrian Kolibri appeared in BF1, the German Volkssturmgewehr appeared in both franchises (BFV, COD WWII, AND COD:V), the Soviet APS appeared in COD Ghosts, and the Russian Fedorov Avtomat appeared in BF1.

what are you talking about, dude
France didn't want to waste money on the MAS38 as they'd rather spend that entertaining the Germans after the surrendered.

Not that they had money to begin with. France was economically still in the Great Depression and had struggles to mobilize the economy for war.
4:20 i’ve seen this footage another video you’ve made I can’t recall which video but I remember the scenery and the Frenchman.
BF1 memes are just timeless tbh.
the guy whos heard of them:
It would be cool to do a history of night vision technology video. I have a pair of Tabby night vision binoculars and there’s not too much information on them compared to later versions

I saw an FG-42 on auction a few months back in the US. It went for $330k USD.

A third of a mil?? That's crazy
whats the name of the song that played in the background when they talk about the fedorov avtomat?
I would love if these firearms gone back into production.
1:00 I used the Type 100 in "History Channel: Battle for the Pacific". Despite the game model having a straight box mag in contrast to the real life version's curved mag, it made for a decent Nip-Wiper (no offense meant to real-life Japanese people, I only make derogatory remarks to video game opponents).

I used it in World At War in the first mission because it more fun than the M1 the game expects you to use and the game doesn’t specially hand an M1 to use for that mission.
Amazing lil documentary
i live for these videos just nice and simple
Ah man the APS underwater pistol and assault rifle, totally gave me flash backs of playing deltaforce 2.
They might be rare, but not unheard of, all have appeared in modern 1st & 3rd person shooters.
New Title: "Rare guns the infographics show never heard of, but are known to every gamer on earth!"
