I'm on board with whoever suggested a car bomb. You have a much better chance of getting everyone with that as opposed to a jerry-rigged machine gun oscillating back and forth. Plus it involves chemistry. Whatever, the climax was Hank dying and the rest was just a coda, although a coda that reinforces Walt destroying everything via his hubris would have been better than a coda softening that message.

I was hoping they (the nazis) did actually take him up on his offer to show them a new way to cook meth without methylamine. They had already made a point of showing Jack displaying a total lack of disregard for his own safety by not donning a mask during Todd's meth cook.
Any way that it went down would have been contrived - to take out all of the nazis was quite fortunate, not knowing how close he could actually park to the club house or whether it was built from brick. It's all luck really.
Maybe a smarter option would have been to make a secondary weapon, like the car bomb idea that he could have activated had the gun not done the trick. It wouldn't have been a stretch for him to have gotten the appropriate chemicals or pre-made explosives for that.
