History of WWI Primer 120: Romanian Revolver 1915 Documentary 

Fire your 6 shots at an Austrian officer or machine-gunner and take his Steyr-Hahn.

@@briantanner1068 Granted if you hit him.. :)

Or just dub the audio as obviously as possible, like when they used to censor movies for showing on prime-time TV.

Same here.

Eh, this thing doesent require a stick to reload and can actually hit things. Solong as you get one of these things brand new, and use it like a liberator...

@cody sonnet ReichsRevolvers are rather nice, hence why I never mentioned them?

@@DADeathinacanAt least I know a Reichsrevolver will work and not blow up in my face. Which is a damn low bar to clear, but it does clear it, unlike the Romanian 1915 revolver.

Sea Cowboy actually.

Yes, in the outdoors community there are knife like objects you would be grateful to have in a survival situation, but not that grateful.

So it's a four pound spadroon made of mild steel from an Indian workshop but at least its kind of sharp and the hilt feels OK?

I don't think Mark would let Mae near something likely to go bang in a bad way. Betcha this was fairly close to needing Mae at the end of a length of string.

In cycling, the equivalent is the Bicycle Shaped Object. BSOs are typically sub £200 products sold by supermarkets, toy shops, car parts stores and mail-order-type catalogue retailers. They are often "full-bounce BSOs", which look like they have suspension at both ends, but have no damping and inadequate pivots, so give a rougher ride that if the bike were rigid. Conveniently close to "BSA" who made plenty of good-enough-but-heavy bikes half a century ago.

"product-shaped object" is my term for describing modern products which have had all utility and functional merit painstakingly cost-engineered out of them and replaced with swoosh marks, heavy marketing, and extravagant packaging. I regard the term as the generalized form, though in many of these other forms that people mention, the failings of the item in question were never so deliberate.

and a Saturday night special to boot. The RG, SNS of the first world war.

Tuesday arvo in Australia

@@richardsveum8452: being around in the 1970s, and actually shot an RG revolver, along with several sheriffs deputies and police officers who were going through the whole mi-named "Saturday Night Special' thing; and these Spanish revolvers were universally loathed and were considered dangerous to shoot. BTW, the RG revolvers were markedly better, at least there were a few straight and intentionally parallel lines.

@@charlesadams1721 Not in the one I had. LOL, I wanted to see just how bad it was, lead shaving P.O.S. timing was so far off that it might fire 3 rounds out of a cylinder. And it was like new in the box. Paid $25 for it in 1986.

@@richardsveum8452to be fair the Spanish revolvers I've seen didn't seem to be concerned with such advanced things as lead shaving from an inconsistent cylinder. As to the RG's, there was a guy, a fairly advanced shooter with more than an extensive firearm collection who occasionally came to the range with some interesting and expensive guns (he was a very successful businessman), produced an RG revolver, a large frame model chambered in 44 magnum. It was shot in a Ransom rest with special adapters, using a long lanyard. Still, bystanders (including me) went and hung out on the backside of the concrete block range office or kinda congregated behind cars. Wonder of wonders, it didn' blow up. BTW, this gut was not shy about large handguns, he had the first Automag I eve saw, he bought and show a Coonan .357 mag and had a bolt-actioned handgun, I think a Wichita, in.308. (And I thought my XP-100 in .35 Remington was hot.)

I NEED .32 FRENCH LONG

_Oh mérde!_

@@Siegerzkranz Steinel and several other suppliers are now making ammo and then there is this.. www.starlinebrass.com/765-french-long/

@sman7290 what's funny is I have a 1943 Nagant Revolver, with the original ammunition it shoots high and to the left with 32 Smith & Wesson long it shoots exactly at the point of aim, I can actually put one bullet through the same hole as the next if I take my time.

@@Siegerzkranz So does Ian!

They killed there own communist dictator...... the dictator realized that there was civil unrest and protesters started rioting.... so the dictator decided that he wanted to send the military to suppress them with gunfire..... but the military knocked out their own Commander went against their own communist government and started the Revolution 3 years before the official fall of communism....they won

@@michaelrizea3108 theat is no revolution.. it whas samthing else , if we showt the comander , thay desevr, all politician deserve a bulet ,sword ,, the time is not pass :)))

@@leomarin2205 ween you destroy your own government normally thats called a Revolution

If the military does it, it's a coup not a revolution.

The problem isn't taking the sword, it's paying for yet another one.

You can at least make lunch using a smaller blade. I wouldn't risk using this revolver to crack nuts.

Just started the video with that exact though. Now I'm thinking.... Oh no

Woah, i wouldve never guessed that was possible unless you were carrying a cocked revolver like a maniac. Thats kind of terrifying.

@@greybayles7955 The shock from rappelling down a mountain caused the hammer to move enough to fire the bullet. Ironically it happened during US forest service training to do a mountain rescue.

@@MartinCHorowitz This safety wouldn't prevent that. You'd need a hammer block safety, like any modern revolver or hammer-fired semiauto; however, this thing's safety only blocks the trigger from moving, letting the hammer roam free.

@@cgunugc That's. . . The opposite of true. *The* thing the safety on this gun does is to prevent the hammer from cocking.

@@logitimate Sorry. You're correct; I was wrong. This doesn't have a hammer block safety, but the hammer doesn't "roam free" either. The safety blocks the hammer from coming back, but doesn't stop it going forward and impacting the cartridge if dropped on the hammer.

Specifically, for defending yourself against dogs that are trying to attack you while you're riding a bicycle. Worth noting: The Velo-dog cartridge (and original Velo-dog revolver) was introduced by Galand in 1894, only 9 years after the development of the first human rabies vaccine, and *long* before the development of any rabies vaccine for dogs.

Hope you have a shed and a metal file...you don't need a vise even. On second thought a kitchen table will do perfectly...

It would be interesting to do a CAD workup and run Finite Element Analysis on it to see how little change you can make to the design and fabrication to end up with a serviceable weapon. Maybe there is a perfect size for the lump atop the frame, a perfect angle and size for that easily damaged cone, or maybe moving the hammer pivot 1mm gives you the nice weight you're looking for.

Romanian Revolver model 1915. Chambered in .45 acp, purchased from Colt during both world wars. 2010% true. Look it up.
