Battle Treasures
S01E01Iconic Assault Rifles
The German STG 44, history's first true assault rifle, revolutionised infantry tactics. We then uncover a rare AK-47 signed by its inventor, Mikhail Kalashnikov, a weapon that became a global icon of revolution. Finally, Foxy and Bruce handle the M16 with grenade launcher, an actual weapon used during the film Black Hawk Down. Together, these rifles reveal how military engineering, politics, and battlefield innovation shaped the weapons that came to define the twentieth century.
