Rapid Firepower DVD

From World War I to modern weapons that can fire up to 6000 rounds a minute, this is the definitive look at machine guns.
AK47, AR15, M16 and more

It was a development that revolutionized warfare overnight. Experts estimate that one quarter of the casualties of World War I were caused by machine gun fire. And since then, these devastating weapons have only gotten more deadly.

TALES OF THE GUN locks and loads for the comprehensive chronicle of RAPID FIREPOWER. Rare footage takes us to the long-ago battlefields where machine guns first proved their worth, and into the workshops of legendary gunsmiths like Kalshnikov, whose AK-47 is one of the most successful firearms ever invented. We'll hear combat tales from former soldiers and expert insight from Charles Q. Cutshaw of Jane's Defence Information. And see how modern rapid fire weapons have developed in two directions--lightweight, compact guns and heavy-duty weapons like the M6 Vulcan, which can release 6000 rounds per minute!
