    That’s a sexy looking stick. I can see why they kept it around so long. Triggered my cave man brain. “Mmm. Stick good.”

This is a community dedicated to historical arms, mechanically unique arms, and Ian McCollum’s Forgotten Weapons content.

Posts requesting an identification of a particular gun (or other arm) are welcome.

https://www.youtube.com/@ForgottenWeapons

https://www.forgottenweapons.com/

Rules:

1) Treat Others in a Civil Manner. Personal insults of other members are not welcome here. Neither are calls for violence.

2) No Contemporary Politics Historical politics that influenced designs or adoption of designs are excluded from this rule. Acknowledgement of existing laws to explain designs is also permissible, so long as comments aren’t in made to advocate or oppose a policy.

3) No Advertising This rule doesn’t apply to posting historical advertisements or showing more contemporary ads as a means of displaying information on an appropriate topic. The aim of this rule is to combat spam/irrelevant advertising campaigns.

4) Keep posts and discussions on Topic Keep it related to arms or Forgotten Weapons or closely adjacent content.

5) NSFW content must be marked, and is only acceptable if it is on topic. NSFW means gore or nudity. If such content is somehow on topic and is not just posted for shock value it may be allowed but must be marked.

Post Guide Lines

These are suggestions not rules.

-Provide a duration for videos. eg. [12:34]

-Provide a year to either indicate when a specific design was produced, patented, or released. If you have an older design being used in a recent conflict provide the year the picture was taken. Dates should be included to help contextualize, not necessarily give exact periods.

-Post a full URL, on mobile devices it can be hard to tell what you’re clicking on if you only see “(Link)”.

-Posts do not have to be just firearms. Blades, bows, etc. are also welcome.
