The Nazis would have won if it weren't for the Russian winter.

Hitler decided it would be okay if he didn't wait until Spring to launch the assault. His men literally froze to death because his factories didn't produce enough winter clothing for them to survive.



They couldnt defeat Soviets even if Moscow was conquered by Nazis. There are few reasons: Stalin ordered to move military factories behind the mountain Ural and also winter was cruical for Soviets.

We must also remember that the nazis had technology far superior to the allies as well. The only thing the allies had was radar (which was basicly crap the first year) and their code cracker whose name for some reason eludes me.

After the war the allies and Soviet where grabbing every nazi scientist they could get their hands on to get the technological edge.

Nevermind that this is the USA we're talking about, my state probably has more firearms(Not just pistols and shotguns either) in private hands then most countries do in military hands.

Unless those people join up and fight as a coherent force handguns wont do much good. Army warfare is all about strategy if you do it right you can beat an opponent with both greater numbers and firepower. Just because ever crazy redneck owns a gun don't mean he will be facing 1 Chinese guy alone. Most likely he will run into a patrol and then it wont matter if he has a shotgun or not.

But as someone said here with the introduction of drones the military field will soon change.

There are some really awesome stuff out there the spy drones in special, these fuckers have tech that is at least 50 years ahead of whats available to the general public.

Its not just the "crazy rednecks" that own guns, way to stereotype.

Counterfactional history is hard to say anything about, simply because it is counterfactional. The Nazis got stomped when they tried to take Moscow, sure, but they also lost the Battle of Britain due to their inferior radar technology.

If i would have to be counterfactional i would say that if the Nazis were not allied with Japan, the war could've taken a completely different turn, even though they would probably end up loosing the war simply due to the amount of resources each side had.

Oh they will slow them down for sure but they wont win any wars with a bunch of half retards. If we are lucky the Texans wont reduce their own number to half before the Chinese get there.

Guns + stupid people = Darwin award
