    I can guess that these are quite inaccurate, but with the massively increased protection it offers in trench warfare, I’ve always wondered why remote controlled weapons or this kind of foldable weapon with a periscope have seemingly completely disappeared?

    I would imagine that mounting a machine gun on a tripod and operating it from Dow in the trench would be both simple, effective, and far safer than exposing yourself over the top.
