Yes I thought the same thing . There are many of these similar videos on U tube. Today at the library I was watching a wartime training movie made in the US , comparing the German MG34 and 42 with the US .30 light and heavy MG. They set up targets and shot off 50 rounds from each weapon . The results were the slower rate of fire of the .30 guns meant increased accuracy . The movie had overtones of wartime propaganda and I think it was meant to brainwash US soldiers " we have superior weapons " . It was a naive attempt and I dont think it would have convinced many of the trainee soldiers .
