why guns got SO UGLY
In this video, we trace the visual decline (or evolution, depending on who you ask) of military rifles across the 20th and 21st centuries. From the golden age of pre-war craftsmanship, through the honest ugliness of WWII stamped-steel SMGs like the Sten and M3 grease gun, into the Cold War aesthetic peak of the FN FAL, HK G3, Steyr AUG, and the entire Kalashnikov dynasty — before everything went sideways.
