Ping.
Be careful when reloading or you'll hurt yourself real bad.

Just keep your thumb away from the chamber when you reload
Keep yourself away from Vietnamese soldiers when you need to reload!

R.I.P Rick May The Mann Himself ah yes while that gun is much more advanced it doesn’t have the compact ability, but does allow longer range.
ProTip: Every time you empty your Garand in a multiplayer WW2 game, your ping goes down by 8. No need to thank me.
+SuperJay ping is the ammount of lag in a game. The higher the ping (I.e. 300) the laggier it is. and the ping also comes from as explained in the video. when the magazine in the gun is empty.
Thank you, Captain Obvious.

I see what you did there.
What I'm hearing is the Canadians made a gun once
*Once.*

"What does a battle rifle have in common with a microwave? They both go "Ping" when they're done" My god
@Aidan Hall what other battle rifle goes "ping"
@Aidan Hall You could call a bolt action a Battle Rifle to a degree I suppose but even then I can't think of one that pings.
@Someaceguy1937 Another bolt action, plus it doesn't ping when you're actually done, you would still have another round. SO, even if you say "it still pings!", It's not technically "done". Joke doesn't work.

this weapon is the garand-daddy of rifles
I see what you mean
ba dum tss
Damnit.
see what you did there
Do you Garand-tee this is true?
Someone once told me soldiers would tap empty mags on their helmet to make it sound like they have to reload to make the enemy peak so they could pick them of more easily.
That Actually sounds like it would happen,
I know in the army my brother would hold on to empty mags and drop them to make people peek
That's a myth, as he said, the battlefield is noisy as hell, and even if they did hear it, they wouldn't peek as there would be 20 fully loaded rifles next to the unloaded one.
My father was in the german Bundeswehr. He said it was a common trick to check if your magazine was full, because at least G3 Magazines sounded hollow when unloaded and soldiers were issued to keep empty magazines to refill them on a later occasion.
***** Interesting.
+Web 55.0 there are a couple of documented cases of guards throwing empty clips, but this was incredibly rare.
Well done video and as a salty Marine vet once said, “You just fired 8 rounds of .30-06, EVERYONE IS DEAF!”

Just wait until you own one of these. Mine just arrived yesterday in the mail from the Civilian Marksmanship Program--100 percent authentic military surplus. According to the serial no. stamped on my receiver, it was produced in November of 1942. It's a beautiful Springfield Armory one. Gonna take it to my local gun range. The "ping" should turn some heads lol.
Verticles (bigredjew) So, how was it?
Richardsen It was a "Garand" old time, literally. Ammo is $25 a box so shooting it is only on special occasions.
Verticles (bigredjew) Ouch! Not for the shallow pockets :D
Nonetheless, I trust you are enjoying that piece of history you have there.
Richardsen I certainly am. Just picked up a .303 British Lee Enfield too. Sold my AK for it. Two years ago I wouldn't have thought once about doing that. Amazing how my taste in weaponry has changed.
+Verticles (bigredjew) I'm concerned about procedure for if you dont empty a magazine fully and a cease fire is called.
One of the best rifles I ever shot in the Greek army for target practice. Its balance and precision were unbelievable and was far better than our standard issue fully automatic G3-A3s. At 100 yards away, bulls-eye was possible even for a novice. If war time was ever to come, I wouldn't mind the option if given to use one.
+gutz1981 I wonder if the M14 with a 20-round detachable magazine is as good.
ehh changed round and a kinda faster rof so depends
gutz1981 except that without earplugs, .30-06 will destroy your ears for at least 3 weeks
And yet the soldiers of the 40's didn't have ear plugs and were still able to hear.
You say that but hearing loss usually isn't all or nothing. I bet you plenty of soldiers came out of war with substandard hearing. They could still function, but probably could no longer hear quieter things and I'm sure quite a few would have had tinnitus to some degree.

Gets even better with weapon mods expanded so you can put a long barrel on it so it's nice and accurate. Doing a play through now where I basically only use This Machine. Very versatile weapon
Yeah, I once had a build that used the WMX This Machine, was a very good rifle and sniper.
I just modded mine to not have as much spread. Was my signature weapon for most playthroughs.
The moment i could get a battle rifle i did. And i usally upgraded later on in the game. I prefer the service rifle but damn this machine is a good gun

My grandfather used the M1 Grand as his weapon, and he told me stories of his usage from Italy all the way to Germany. Glad to know more information about this historical firearm in the form of this wonderful video. Cheers Stew.
Tomio Fujino Id like to here some of those stories if you don't mind, I never got to meet my grandfather who served in the pacific
My grandfather served in eating donuts.
M1 also saw action in Korea and some in Vietnam
vasilikosolov Granted it was very limited. With the introduction of the M14 the garand became relegated to more specialist roles. Such as sniping.
The US abandoned the M1 garand by the M14.The only army using it at the time were the ARVN who got most of their weapons from the US that were left over from ww2.In the very early years US advisors would use m1 carbines and Thompson submachine guns.You would see a grunt using them though and by 67 you wouldn't see them or the m14 used by the grunts anymore.
Did you even watch til the end?
My grandpa actually used an m1 Garand in Vietnam
@@PewPewBeets wasn't limited in Korea

@@firedskull5015 no u
That and it was just a great weapon for its time
You failed to mention the fact that though the m1 garand was short lived, the M14 was designed around it. The similarities between the M14 and M1 garand are so great, one could put them in the same family of rifles.
The M1 Garand was not short lived. It served 23 years in the US military and is still in service with other nations. The M14 was short lived, only in service for 5 years before being replaced by the M16. The M14 is technically in limited service, but it's really never used anymore. Not a good gun.
@@deanc91 I've heard people who fired it say it was too light for full auto and too heavy for semi auto. Give a gun like that to a bunch of scared and trigger happy draftees and you have a recipe for disaster
@@Nyx_2142 Well it certainly was no good in full auto. I don't think it's a weight problem. Its weight is not too far off from other battle rifles of the era. From what I understand, the M1 Garand had an excellent short receiver that gave it a real advantage dimensionally. However, scale that down to the M14, and give it full auto, and you have a very fast and violently opening bolt traveling a very short distance before coming to a stop. This made recoil very snappy, violent, and fast (due to short bolt travel) which made it relatively uncontrollable and highly unpleasant to shoot full auto. Other weapons like the AR-10, FAL, and G3 gave the bolt plenty of length to travel to burn off energy before coming to a stop at the end of the receiver which made them much much more pleasant to shoot.
The BM59 is actually more closely related to the M1 than the M14, as it is literally just an M1 conversion. All the M14 has in common is the receiver and op rod.
Nothing beats a good WWII shooter, Am I right?
An M16 probably would
ThePonziScheme Derp.
WW2 please.
Still hoping for a next gen WWII game..
***** I'm not sure about that. Gun variety is important in a game, and WW1 had almost only bolt-action rifles. There were a few machine guns, but only mounted ones. Anyway, I think you would quickly get bored.
Exactly! Now that there's next gen and everyone is tired of modern or futuristic shooters it's the perfect time to bring back the WWII GAMES.
A great american gun. My grandpa fought in WW II, and had been trained on the Springfield '03 rifles. When he got a Garand, he said, "Now this is power!". I've fired it myself, and can wholeheartedly agree. Waiting for the Uzi, a great piece of Israeli tech.
SVT40 beats M1 Garand in every possible way, same with the G43.
The SVT40 was a piece of shit, unreliable rifle. These things frequently fell apart on soliders, most notably the magazine had a tedency to fall out of the rifle randomly.
The G43 was a decent design, but they were horribly made. When these guns were introduced in service the Germans were already losing WW2 and were making these rifles as fast as possible to try to even the odds against the Soviet's and American's semi auto rifles. That meet crudely fitted parts (which means lower accuracy at distance) And many compromises to the design, like most of the rifles were made out of pressed sheet metal, instead of milled steel as orginally designed, which couldn't handle the 7mm cartridge very well.
XavierJ61 American patriot much? SVT40. are reliable because of the gas operation and the magazine issue isn't common for SVTs made after 1941. G43 was the same G41 that took innovation from the SVT.
American hater much? SVT40s were too complicated and clunky, hence why the Russian military stopped issuing them to regular soliders and instead for specialist roles. Here's a quote from a Russian veteran, "We didn’t have the self-loading rifles SVT in the school, they were hardly practical at the front: as soon as the tiniest portion of sand got into the SVT - it stuck and stopped working."
english.iremember.ru/snipers/24-nikolai-nadolko.html?q=%2Fsnipers%2F24-nikolai-nadolko.html&start=1
The G43 as I said, was a rushed to production rifle that was extremely crude. Relatively few examples of the G41 were made, but the ones that made it to service were disliked by soliders, I'll give you a quote.
"In the field, the G41(M) proved unpopular with troops. In addition to being exceedingly complex and susceptible to fouling and malfunction, it was a long, heavy (11.5 pounds), and poorly balanced rifle. Captured SVT-40 Tokarev rifles were much preferred, and most of the G41(M)s ended up in the hands of second-line soldiers."

The M1 Garand was one of the most iconic rifles ever to see military service. Replacing the iconic M1903 Springfield in service, it had a brief service life. But it's iconic status is irrefutable. An absolute soldiers rifle.
Brief? It was in service for like 20 years with the US
@@harveyknguyen this is true. 20 years is a good career for a service rifle. The M-14 has had a longm career but only 7 as a main service rifle. And the Garand did serve in both WW2 and the Korean War.

Gabes. Mp40 is ready
I have fired one of these in real life at an event with over a hundred unique weapons where people took turns firing five shots from each gun. Games always seem to get this weapon wrong. This was the loudest gun there with the most intense recoil. You could see and feel the shock wave in the air and see the grass around it shimmer. The dust plume behind the target was twice as tall as any other gun's. It bruised my shoulder, but man oh man was worth it to fire this absolute cannon of a rifle.
I would love to fire one of those but i would have to work my way up, as i have only fired small calibers before

You forgot to mention the spring that pull back when you reload, and when you get you thumb stuck in that, there was a name for it but I forgot. That was a major complaint during World War 2.
That only happens if you don't know what you're doing

I like how in the CoD clips, it shows the more realistic reloading with the hand on the bolt slide, but in Battlefield, they pull back the bolt, use that hand and put in a clip, then throw the bolt closed like its frozen
Some Garands needed the bolt to be closed manualy, WW2 manufacturing wasn't perfect so some guns didn't close the bolt automaticaly
referencing to the part when he said that the ping would be inaudible during combat. I'd like to address that the ping was very audible during combat during its service and were many times when enemy combatants would only return fire after the ping Was Heard. However, it became a tactic to Chuck a empty clip to simulate the noise in order to get enemies from behind cover to expose themselves only to be met with a fully loaded rifle.
yah, gonna need some sources on that
+James Payne I believe it was part of a documentary that was aired on the History Channel a number of years ago. this sort of tactic was not employed during heavy combat scenarios like on D-Day. I believe they said it was more in areas where trench based Warfare was still predominant.
yeah how many guns have you shot? the shooter will hear it. the enemy being shot at probably not. gun fire with no ear pro will make your ears ring for days. the ping would to me as the shooter indicate that the ping is a sign to reload.
+miketheace64 I've fired a wide variety of guns actually. That being said, all I'm doing was adding info that I remember from a documentary.

The "ping" noise is also created when an empty clip falls onto a hard surface. According to several veterans, some troops would throw an empty clip on the ground to trick the enemies into thinking they had run out of ammo, and lure them into the open.
Those vets were telling stories. Nobody can hear an M1 ping in combat except for the man holding the rifle. The enemy aren't going to learn that ping means reload if they can't hear it over the sound of continuous gunfire.

Gotta love how Kalashnikov took inspiration from garand's rotating bolt lock-up mechanism
My friend once said that when designing the M1 Garand, they wanted to ensure user's shoulder comfort when firing by reinforcing the stock with Grade A solid wood.
History geek here
1. Due to slow production not all branches were armed with the M1 at the beginning of the war, the marines had 1903 Springfield’s for the first few months of war
2. “Besides WWII these are rarely seen”
The M1 was still in use during the Korean War, I know this for a fact because of my grandfather
The Ping sound alone makes the M1 Garand one of my favorite weapons in video games to date.
I actually got to see one of these today and it was in surprisingly great shape, as I was told it was a classic.

edit: yo guys chill its just a joke its not fr
And you could throw a clip against a rock to fool enemies
"It's not setting us up to lose its bm"
A firefight is very loud. I doubt you hear the ping.
@@sketchdrawn1056 No, battle is extremely loud and the American rifleman with an M1 is not going to be alone. Not to mention that it only takes a couple of seconds to reload.
I really don’t like the people who say this.
1. Guns are loud AS FUCK, nobody gonna hear the ping.
2. It tells your allies that you are empty so they can cover you
3. Touching on 2, you aren’t gonna be alone, the enemy isn’t going to here this and think, “He’s out, get him” and then run out into the hail of bullets to kill you, your not that special.
I've probably seen this video 50 Times already but I never get tired of it.
My new favorite quote "What does a battle rifle have in common with a microwave? They both go Ping when they are done." - Ahoy or XboxAhoy
By far one of my favorite rifles, the feeling when I shot one for the first time was amazing. Also for the longest time I never got it's name right, I thought it was the M1 Grand, I never noticed the first "a" until someone pointed it out to me
That thumbnail is so AMERICAN.
America! America!
AMERICA! F__K YEAH!
@pennywise the dancing clown AMERICAAAAA
"garand or garand"
me,as a french:M UN GARAN(pronounciation)
I love these videos :D
And I heard in WW2 the us soldiers sometimes faked the 'ping' to make the germans think they are reloading.
wanted to write this :D
they used this bait in close combat so the germans would rush out of their covers
I heard that as well.
Yes they would they would knock the magazine in their helmet to make the enemy think they are reloading and when the enemy thinks that they are reloading they pop up to fire but since it was fake the Americans could take them down
I was going to applaud Ahoy for not stating this, because it is indeed a myth. You could look at it from a common sense perspective. First off combat is loud. You would likely be unable to hear the ping in the first place. Secondly, just because a GI might be out of ammo and need to reload, doesn't mean his buddies next to them need to as well. iccf.freeforums.org/m1-garand-myth-busted-t1022.html Here's a quick article read about the topic, btw.
As i said - i heard of it. Never even saw M1 myself though.
I LOVE THIS GUYS VOICE!!!!
I was once fortunate enough to fire a few clips out of the M1. The ping was so satisfying I almost ended shooting early just so I could be completely satisfied
As someone who proudly owns a WWII dated Garand (April 1943, according to Springfield Armory logs), I approve of this video.
1:15 Water drop noise just by talking
?
I searched for this exact comment lmao
Fallout new vegas be like
Assault Carbine:👎
This Machine:👌
Garand: 'Ping sounds'
Gamers:MmMMm...
Grandpa: *Hold up.*
"The greatest battle implement ever made."
Not really.
Oh come on give me a break. I died in 1945 how was i supposed to know what crazy shit you people come up with?
@@jfangm In the setting of WWII, I'd say it was. Or at least definitely one of the greatest. It was also just a huge milestone in general.
Ideas for weapons in this series: M16, M1911, M14, FN FAL, Dragunov, 44 Magnum, M60, Lee-Enfield, MP40, and RPG
Yes the lee Enfield has to be done
SPAS-12
Thompson, MG-42, M1014.
OK list, although the fact that you used 44 Magnum and Dragunov gives away where you got suggestions from. 44 Magnum is a caliber, not a gun and it is called the SVD, not Dragunov, outside of games.
SkiDaBird
.44 Magnum is also just a more common term from S&W 29, the most common gun using the .44 Magnum cartridge. And its not that uncommon to call SVD a Dragunov, SVD stands for Snayperskaya Vintovka Dragunova
After MP5, can we get the G3?
So much yes. The G3 has a great history, it's so much more than just another FAL competitor as people say.
It is indeed. Its a rifle that is absolutely needed to be covered in this series.
after the MP5 he is done for the season, the next season will come out after shooter season 2014
The MP5 is practically a submachine variant gun of the G3. I don't see why Ahoy should make two episodes on almost the same gun. I'd say he should do the UZI, G36 or Mosin-Nagant instead.
He has already worked on the video so even if he wanted to change it he would just wait and make a video about one of those guns for season 2
In high school I shot on a competitive 3p smallbore and air rifle team, and at the end of each year, we'd join the high power shooters for a casual match. After one match, this old fella randomly approached me and asked if I knew how to field strip and clean a Garand. I told him that I'd operated one before because my dad owned one, but I'd never taken one apart. He then took his own rifle and proceeded to disassemble and reassemble it before telling me to do the same. Even with arthritic hands he was still able to strip it down like it was second nature. He was a veteran of Korea and an ex-cop who was part of the last generation of law enforcement to be issued with a Thompson. Out of all the people on my team, he chose to give me an old time lesson, and for that I have always felt a sense of pride. I can't even imagine the love soldiers and marines had for that rifle. It's a mechanical wonder: a perfect marriage of wood and steel. Sturdy, reliable, accurate, and deadly like nothing of its time.
I love New Vegas' incarnation of the Garand. It's rather disappointing that you can't use it with the Grunt perk in the vanilla game, but the J. Sawyer mod fixes that. This Machine (and the non-unique Battle Rifle variant added in Gun Runners' Arsenal) are fine weapons by themselves, but Grunt pushes them into the field of excellence. And it even has the *ping*.
