This is a community dedicated to discussion around 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.

Rules:
1) Treat Others in a Civil Manner. This is not the place to deride others for their race, sexuality, or etc. 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 permissable, so long as comments aren't in made to advocate or oppose a policy. Let's not make this a place where we battle over which color ties our politicians should have, or the issues of today.
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 Post on Topic This rule will be enforced with leeway. Just keep it related to arms or Forgotten Weapons or closely adjacent content. If you feel you have something that's worth posting here that isn't about either of those (and doesn't violate other rules) feel free to reach out to a mod.
5) No NSFW Content Please refrain from posting uncensored extreme gore or sexualized content. If censored these posts may be fine.
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.

MODERATORS
They're certainly one way to get ahead in your next Tour de France.
Aero bars are banned in tour de France. Need to install the weapons in another way, maybe bottle cage mount
It is mounted incorrectly. The recoil pushes the bike backward.
Just need to add a bigger one in back.
When someone tries to buzz you and doesn't obey the 3ft/1m safe passing distance:
What in mafioso tarnation!?
Weaponized bicycles are real. Don't need fuel to move relatively fast. And they're cheap and simple to maintain.
Yeah, but you look ridiculous so obviously we can’t have that.
sure, they'll prefer to use electric bikes now, but the idea to move fast, silently and with a specific weapon on a very simple and easy to maintain bike to go and stop a specific vehicle is alive and kicking and i'm sure the russians in the tanks had a good laugh right before they were blown to pieces. It's really not different from the panzerfaust fahrräder in the second world war...
