The Breda 30 is one of those guns that always leaves me asking “what were they thinking?” A skeletal design yet still chock full of moving parts?, a Twenty-round capacity that is loaded with stripper-clips? This thing would be barely acceptable in WW1 let alone in WW2. Shame that this gun is one of the reasons Italy was such a meme for WW2 History because Italy did have some great guns especially those made by Beretta.
@@ArcturusOTE Yeah that much is a given, though tbf none of the Axis Powers had a chance of winning for pretty much the same reason and they are all meme’d for it though it was especially so for Italy. My point is that not everything the Italian army had was hot garbage.
This is what happens when you tell someone who only specializes in making aircraft, "Here, now make me a gun!" Not kidding, Breda is more into building aircraft...
I personally like Forgotten Hope 2's rendition the best. They model the pivot of the magazine, the draw and stowage of that giant, silly clip, and the magazine tab on top moves when rounds are inserted. In addition, the bolt dropping home makes a really nice, metallic noise. It's very well paced for something that is in general, a cumbersome affair.
I concur about the tab's movement that parallels with the rounds being inserted. I remember seeing another vid concerning FH2's animations and people didn't like it because the animation seems too "casual" as if they're not under duress. But honestly, I love it, because if you don't take the time, you're gonna break it anyways.
I have used the Breda M30 in Enlisted and I am pretty impressed with this Italian Star Wars machine gun. It takes 1-2 hits to eliminate an enemy and has more starting ammunition than the MG42 and MG34. It will be a good machine gun once you unlock the 920th Grenider Regiment (The first machine gun squad in the Normandy Campaign.)
It pretty bad tbh , the only thing that is good about it is the open sight and the controlable vertical recoil , the rest is just sad ( one of the worst dispersion on an MG , low magazines capacity , slowest ROF).Even though i have gotten 12+ kill streak with it i gotta say that gun is just painful to use , i would gladly take a BREN over it (30 round mag vs 20 round mag , one of the highest accuracy in game for mg , better ROF)
@@huyhoangtahuu9733 you and I have different opinions. No offense ofc. I have a bad taste on the Bren because it felt very uncomfortable to play it. Didn't feel powerful with my aggressive play style, I dislike the rear sight, felt like it took 3 shots to kill an enemy.
Also an LMG which uses tightly-fitting clip loaders to insert the rounds, one where you need a steady hand to get the charger into the magazine (like, say, not trying to reload in the middle of the battle, where adrenaline is making your hands shake). There's a video of a man shooting one of these on a firing range, and even then he had a bit of a struggle to get the clip loader into the magazine! Can't imagine how that could be bad in the middle of a war...
@Sunny The chauchat was the best LMG of it's time, I love the quote 'It's Chauchatin' Time' the French troops and the Doughboys saying when they are using this LMG...
Y'all jester but the Chauchat was indeed one of the best LMGs of WW1... the original French version, that is. The American one that was infamous for its problems.
@@noxspot Chauchat was more WW1 than WW2. It was still used in certain rearguard French units (like most WW1 weapons), but by 1939 the main standard squad LMG was the Châtellerault (MAC) FM 24/29, an excellent weapon on par with the Bren.
@@noxspot I'd say it was. The Chauchat's only real issue was its magazine. The Breda constantly needed to be oiled which is inconvenient in the stress of battle, and it was about as reliable in adverse conditions as the Chauchat. So I'd say it was worse. Plus, it had the advantage of NOT being an emergency MG.
There's a report from the Italian partisans (the resistence) where they were asking to the Allied Force something like tons of oils, lube and things like that just to be able to shoot a full burst without jamming the gun (sorry for bad english)

The Breda light machine gun is similar to the British Bren gun. It is mechanically superior to the Bren gun under dusty conditions.

Its disadvantages are that it has no carrying handle, cannot be fired on fixed lines, and has no tripod mounting." ------------------------------------------------------------- Contrary to popular opinion, it was definitely not a bad gun, if the US Army considered it even better in dusty conditions than the famed BREN. It had some flaws, but it was decent enough. Reload wasn't as slow as one thinks: if a soldier has 3-4 loaders near him and the gun is on his right shoulder it's actually quite decent. "Loaders" are much easier to produce and most of all... they weigh MUCH less than normal magazine and to transport a box of 300 rounds was much easier than normal mags. The problems were in the extraction of rounds basically, in the low-capacity mags (24-26 rounds would have been enough) and in the complicated closed-bolt system.
This gun was so strong that even in videogames they needed to underpower it, this gun was even banned after the war because of it's catastrophic reputation
I honestly wish there was a game showcasing just how disgustingly unreliable this gun was during it's service... People really need to see it to believe it lol
There is no way the forgotten hope im seeing in this video was made in 2007. There has to be some mod that makes it look like it was made in 2016 or something
Forgotten Hope 2 has been continually updated since its release and is still being worked on, with the most recent release adding the Battle of France in 1940. They've worked some real magic with the old BF2 engine, and I highly recommend checking the game out especially since it's now a free standalone.
Yeah, it also would technically only reload 18 rounds. My guess is they didn't want to model the Breda M30's dedicated clip, so just improvised using assets made for the Carcano. It's still a better effort than the versions in BF1942 and MoHAA in my opinion. Incidentally, the game's Carcano rifle also reloaded incorrectly (the clip functions as a stripper clip instead of inserted Mannlicher-style).
@@novauviolon i know but damn, there were other lmgs during that time in Italy that could have taken over the Breda But Breda as Fiat was powerful in Italy
Most likely due to the lack of information at that period of time. Game devs most likely used whatever info they could gather from books to early Internet research on rare weapons.
Japanese primary issued weapons were actually well-built though, it's just that their doctrine really hindering their weapon's developments and researches Similar cases can be said to the Italians, where they did actually made some high quality weapons like Beretta 1934 and 1938 as well as the Breda 1937 machine gun and Carcano 1938 with 7.35 Carcano. But instead of doctrines, it's their industrial capabilities that played the role
Why is a game that’s 13 years old have better quality than a 5 year old game Cod WW2 is just the ugly duckling of the cod series not the worst but definitely not the best

The design of this gun is quite odd. If you damage that permanent side mounted mag, the gun would likely be useless.
Yes it is but you can attach it in to gun directly
And the magazine is stripper clip feeded so the reload time is quite slow by only 20 rounds

There is no way the forgotten hope im seeing in this video was made in 2007. There has to be some mod that makes it look like it was made in 2016 or something
Forgotten Hope 2 has been continually updated since its release and is still being worked on, with the most recent release adding the Battle of France in 1940. They've worked some real magic with the old BF2 engine, and I highly recommend checking the game out especially since it's now a free standalone.
Italy's worst machine gun
Never thought I would see this
In big red one the reaload is terrible
Love the gun.
Yeah, it also would technically only reload 18 rounds. My guess is they didn't want to model the Breda M30's dedicated clip, so just improvised using assets made for the Carcano. It's still a better effort than the versions in BF1942 and MoHAA in my opinion. Incidentally, the game's Carcano rifle also reloaded incorrectly (the clip functions as a stripper clip instead of inserted Mannlicher-style).
@@novauviolon i know but damn, there were other lmgs during that time in Italy that could have taken over the Breda
But Breda as Fiat was powerful in Italy
Bruda throw me that breda
Cod 2 big red one introduced me into this weapon but 2:14 how ?
Most likely due to the lack of information at that period of time.
Game devs most likely used whatever info they could gather from books to early Internet research on rare weapons.
@@shadowtrooper262 Someone said it can be detachable
You can remove the magazine, but it doesn't leave an entire frame behind. Demonstration: ruclips.net/video/nFJI04ifSoM/видео.html
Pasta MG
Both Italy and Japan pretty much didn't had the best weapons that they commissioned. But they were remembered how shitty they were.
that's why they lose the war even german have to get them some of their weapon to help .
Japanese primary issued weapons were actually well-built though, it's just that their doctrine really hindering their weapon's developments and researches
Similar cases can be said to the Italians, where they did actually made some high quality weapons like Beretta 1934 and 1938 as well as the Breda 1937 machine gun and Carcano 1938 with 7.35 Carcano. But instead of doctrines, it's their industrial capabilities that played the role
I like this gun imersive reload just pull bullets inside the mag loader and pull it and shoot some unlucky soldiers
Why is a game that’s 13 years old have better quality than a 5 year old game
Cod WW2 is just the ugly duckling of the cod series not the worst but definitely not the best
Italian pride 🟩⬜🟥
This gun needed to be lubed for it to work correctly. Definitely the worst machine gun in WW2
Isn’t this gun historically one of the worst LMGs in ww2?
Not just WW2
The entirety of firearm history
Ww2 breda m30 shoots faster than the MG42
2:13 WTF
WW2 Machine gun
One of the worst light machine guns of World War II
I love how this gun looks but man it was terrible in real life…
In real life the gun was a piece of crap
Even BF 1942 had this gun, but BFV didnt.. it makes me sad.
Ah yes italian gun
From piano Lupo
Haha funny 20 round non removable magazine fed “machine gun” that reloads with stripper clips piece of crap that my grandfather always finds in his forest, very funny
Worst LMG
First pin me
This gun was pure Italian garbage 🗑️
Damn Allied Assault didnt give a single fuck 😂
