Mr. Vickers, I think it can not be said enough how much I appreciate that you and your team have listened over the years when people asked for a reasonable mix of real time and slow motion filming of the working guns. Earlier YT vids were definitely heavy on the slow motion but you've vastly improved since the early days. Thanks!
I used this same rifle (VHS-2 K) alot, and it's great. Low recoil, precise as hell, reliable, easy to disassemble, also supports grenade launcher. It's pretty heavy for such a small rifle but you get used to it quick. Put a holo sight on it and you are ready to go
Wow, the controllability in full auto is incredible for a 5.56 rifle. Shame these aren't coming into the US. Edit: Actually, it has been announced that Springfield Armory will be bringing these into the US and calling it the Hellion - Semi-automatic only of course. Price around $2k
Indeed it seems to control almost exactly the same as a FA-MAS and minimal re training would have been required and it seems to combine the best of both the FA-MAS and the HK416 !

For my opinion the best bullpup. Styer, Tavor etc they are good, but HS Produkts took the best from all these and other modern assault rifles and made a dream gun.
Iraqi special forces use this rifle too. VHS first was designed in 2003 and VSH-2 as improved version later I believe in 2013. I hope HS Produkt brakes away from Springfield and start importing all of their guns them self’s just as Zastava did.

The VHS really looks so much like if someone said "What would a FAMAS look like if H&K made it today?" and just made a custom skin for a FAMAS in a video game. It's a stroke of genius, of course, and HS Produkt probably made the right choice in making their gun so close to H&K's aesthetic. With the popularity of the G3 and G36 in Europe and the Mid East, it might have a leg up just on 'feeling' alone. So much for bullpups going out of style!
@ReadyOrNot Unless HS builds a factory in America or Springfield Armory brings it over like they did the XD, we're as likely to see it as we would the G36 or Radom products
I wish the gun wasn't as heavy in the game lol, also would be nicer if weapon encumbrance/collision was more of a thing, so you'd actually have an advantage with the shorter overall length of a bullpup
@@bibikwan there actually is an advantage with weapon length. Longer weapons will collide with walls quicker than shorter ones. The game even models suppressors into htis
Wanted to see Larry running the charging handle!! Seemed to be a very controllable gun spitting out that much lead.. excellent video quality and editing as always LAV! ✌
The Kurdish Peshmerga fighters in Iraq also received a whole bunch of weapons and equipment (bulletproof vests, helmets etc.) from Germany including G36 and G3 assault rifles. Additionally they also received Milan anti-tank missiles, Panzerfaust 3 anti-tank rocket launchers, some MG3 machine guns, old P1 pistols and hand grenades.

Yes. VHS has a magazine housing which is held by one pin. The housing can be changed to fit AR mags. It can be seen on firearmsguide video if I renember correctly ruclips.net/video/l-jtuTP9Vgo/видео.html

Top notch weapon, had the priv to test one in Afghanistan. Our Croat partners are all equipped with these guns. Most of my platoon had the opportunity to test fire these and we were astonished with this guns performance. We are now lobbying our commanders to source these guns from the Croats as they are far superior to ours.
This gun needs to be liscenced to an american company for domestic production here. I'd buy one of those in a fucking heartbeat. The way they're set up, during automatic fire it doesn't really want to rise. This is the coolest bullpup i've ever seen. It's too bad it isn't in 6.8 and in the military trials right now for the M4/M16 replacement.
Seems unusually stable even doing full magazine dumps. Do you know if they have any plans to bring it to the civilan market? I am sure they are looking for military contracts first.
@@tihomirrasperic That makes sense, however I do recommend moving into the civilian market eventually. The civilian market allows for a much more diverse product line-up. This helps prevent a contract suddenly going bad and bankrupting the company.
@@StormFox_1 I was thinking US import. US loves their 5.56 rifles, and bullpups often do well in this market...unless they look like a tuna fish. Looking at you FN FS2000.
Been saying this for years but the fact that Springfield doesn't import this in semi auto is mind boggling given their relationship with HS Produkt. They seem to be floundering as a company and have a "me too!" attitude copying everyone else for new products. No one wants more generic AR-15's, we already have a million options for those! This is a no brainer even if they are $2000 I would buy one, hopefully less though. They are unique and like the Famas and G36 had a baby lol. Probably as close as I would ever get to a Famas sadly.
Larry lost a bunch of weight! Lookin good my man. Man that thing looks like it is running sooooo dang clean (no visible carbon)! I had no idea of this rifle, completely was never on my radar

It's a bullpup so the mag is behind the trigger making a more compact while still having a full length barrel and less chance of smacking it against something in houses.
And THEN there is also left/right handed ejection ports dealing with dexterity

You've changed a lot since the first time I watch this channel Vick
That thing is awesome Larry!
Who else thinks this is the best bullpup rifle ever made?
not me
I
Top notch weapon, had the priv to test one in Afghanistan. Our Croat partners are all equipped with these guns. Most of my platoon had the opportunity to test fire these and we were astonished with this guns performance. We are now lobbying our commanders to source these guns from the Croats as they are far superior to ours.
Me absolutely me
Looks so stable!! Springfield should bring these to the USA!
its only automatic military rifle, not for civilian use
This gun needs to be liscenced to an american company for domestic production here. I'd buy one of those in a fucking heartbeat. The way they're set up, during automatic fire it doesn't really want to rise. This is the coolest bullpup i've ever seen. It's too bad it isn't in 6.8 and in the military trials right now for the M4/M16 replacement.
Larry, looking great! Happy for you. Thanks for the great video
Its nice to see Croatia moving up in the world.
Also nice to see youve lost quite a lot of weight Larry, good on ya.
VHS-D2 bullpup is my rifle!! It is the assault rifle of the future!!!!
And you can say that knowing it’s more then likely not going to end up like the XM8!
I need this in my life. Croatia, when can we get this?
For how fast it fires it has so little recoil wow
Thank you so much, Larry!
Its back!! And available in the US!! Larry with the foresight as always.👍👍
[ Friendship ended with _XM8_ ]
[ Now _VHS-K2_ is my sci-fi gun friend ]
Goddaaaaaammnn ........... that's a sexy gun. Is the recoil that low? Or is it because of your skill that recoil seems low?
I’ve seen a few of those in the hands of some Iraqi’s or Kurds fighting ISIS
Iraq army bought thousands of them
They are probably dead now because these guns have no range.. They are trash..
Yep, I've seen that two, at least Iraqi army.
@@SgtPickledic says you.
@@SgtPickledic and how you know that???
Beautiful. Well crafted.Looks rugged. Looks reliable.
The footage you guys get is just fantastic. Great video.
Does it take VHS films?
No, it only takes Blu ray
Films ? Thought vhs are tapes hmmmm
Yeah but just the hardcore styff😂😂😂😂😂
only if you rewind them all the way to the start XD
@@jantschierschky3461 There is film inside a VHS tape, it isn't digital.
Seems unusually stable even doing full magazine dumps. Do you know if they have any plans to bring it to the civilan market? I am sure they are looking for military contracts first.
for now no, I think they have so much military order they don't need sell for civilian purpose
@@tihomirrasperic That makes sense, however I do recommend moving into the civilian market eventually. The civilian market allows for a much more diverse product line-up. This helps prevent a contract suddenly going bad and bankrupting the company.
@@Jesses001 civilian market in a diffrent country? sure. a civilian market in croatia? no deal we cant have guns here.
@@StormFox_1 I was thinking US import. US loves their 5.56 rifles, and bullpups often do well in this market...unless they look like a tuna fish. Looking at you FN FS2000.
It's coming soon as "Springfield Hellion"
Been saying this for years but the fact that Springfield doesn't import this in semi auto is mind boggling given their relationship with HS Produkt. They seem to be floundering as a company and have a "me too!" attitude copying everyone else for new products. No one wants more generic AR-15's, we already have a million options for those! This is a no brainer even if they are $2000 I would buy one, hopefully less though. They are unique and like the Famas and G36 had a baby lol. Probably as close as I would ever get to a Famas sadly.
Unfortunately, Springfield is rather anti-gun.
American Firearm company's do not really think outside the box
@@Miami1991 what? Quite a lot of them actually innovate a lot as well.
Are you a time traveler? Lol...
@@jasonfagan8053 No I wish lol, but I am now the owner of a semi auto VHS so I'm happy!
Larry lost a bunch of weight!
Lookin good my man.
Man that thing looks like it is running sooooo dang clean (no visible carbon)!
I had no idea of this rifle, completely was never on my radar
Gee Larry has drop some weight and looks very fit! Cool rifle! Like to see more details on this rifle.
