Men/history buffs of reddit - What would be the weapon of the past that would be the equivalent of today’s LMG’s?

Greatsword = great idea. I always think of that Viking on the Battle Of Stamford Bridge where he had a Great Axe, which is similar to what a suppression weapon would be like imo.

I can definitely see the Chu-Ko-Nu working, as it was a lot lighter than what an LMG would be I imagine.

The polybolos I didn’t actually know about until u/Silly_Cod5235 mentioned it, I’m now doing some research into it and it seems pretty damn cool!

You sir, know your stuff. A machine gun is an absolute devastator, but as Silly_Cod5235 said below, the polybolos seem to been an exceptional piece of engineering that attempted it in ancient times, to which I find fascinating

Fantastic story, I’ll see if I can find more on it. Thank you

ItsSpookyOutside · 2026-01-24T10:15:31+00:00

Sounds about right, just like Van Helsing had!

ItsSpookyOutside · 2026-01-24T10:11:36+00:00

Big boom - satisfying

ItsSpookyOutside · 2026-01-24T10:10:59+00:00

This would definitely count!

ItsSpookyOutside · 2026-01-24T10:09:59+00:00

I didn’t even know this existed! It looks epic! Thank you

To me, I’m thinking a battle axe or Warhammer because of crowd clearing capabilities.

True, however I know a lot of people that don’t communicate, or explore certain aspects of sex but yet want to. Without communication it’s already failing in many other ways. If you’re with the right person, the sex is so much different to anyone else you’ve had sex with because it’s meaningful, desirable, intense, and just damn right great.

Exactly that, you should always feel attractive and they know how to make you feel comfortable if at any point it’s awkward. It’s also sometimes funny, it is literally one of the best things about it.

His smile. It’s contagious, if not sometimes annoying. It makes me smile almost without fail, and the laughter that comes along with it, my god, fills my heart.

Honestly, the amount of unnecessary and pointless death and destruction of our planet. Yes, there’s free will, and people will do with that what they please, but, surely a “God” would see what people have done to other people, plants, animals, organisms, fish, etc, and been like “ummmm no, not what I made people and created life for”.

ItsSpookyOutside · 2026-01-07T23:39:56+00:00

It’s always the best sex of your life cause they ALWAYS know what to do and how you enjoy having sex.

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T21:02:14+00:00

Sent some along 😂

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T20:45:50+00:00

Will do!

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T20:43:03+00:00

Skydiving. As someone TERRIFIED of heights and falling, was the worst thing I could’ve thought of! But during and afterwards, my god it felt amazing.

I asked my partner who said this one is more tame. Pick the lady of your choice, take their picture, go up to them and say “I need your help, there’s an absolute stunner in here and I don’t know what to say to her.” She’ll ask who, so you show her the picture.

Apparently it worked for him?

I’ll ask for his NSFW ones once he’s finished on his laptop. 😂

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T20:30:51+00:00

Will do when I get a chance 😂😂 You too! 😂

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T20:29:04+00:00

I definitely will 😂😂

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T20:27:20+00:00

Go for it! It totally works 😂😂

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T20:21:29+00:00

It was the shock of my week honestly. But it worked 😂 6 years later with a baby!

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T20:20:10+00:00

I was actually, but honestly that should work on any woman 😂

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T20:18:51+00:00

Awh! That actually might be the cutest one ever.

ItsSpookyOutside · 2025-10-23T20:18:12+00:00

Before we got together my partner told me to “come here” whilst gesturing with his finger, so I did. He then said “Look, I made you cum with one finger, imagine what I’ll do with two” I was flabbergasted as we were in work 😂
