Just to be clear: The "Shotgun Series" is still on hold for lack of time and funding as YT has severely curtailed channel growth. Also that was always going to be about repeating, magazine shotguns. This is a unique martial shotgun in line with our usual Primer topics. Just like the Winchester 97 and Remington 10.

Behind my bedroom door, an unidentified antique shotgun has sat for a decade, gathering dust. A contained within a old leather scabbard with cross body straps. I had never seen a lever on the side of a shotgun like this and I assumed it was broken. Today I found this video and have finally identified the shotgun. I even learned about the cocking mechanism. This has made my day. Thank you.

Can't put the Alofs magazine on this gun, as it has no automatic EJECTOR. The Alofs would always double-feed on an empty case because of that. The Alofs would probably work on a Remington Model 9 tho, that one DOES have an auto ejector and not just an auto extractor like the Model 3.

@Telamon8 Год назад

My great grandpa had an even cheaper clone of this shotgun, and it got passed along to my hands, and yeah that thing got ran hard in its heyday. That particular one was ran over when it fell off of his tractor as he was driving along, but he nailed the butt stock back together and hammered the barrel to be "more-or-less" straight and continued using it, because he was a farmer and wasn't about to throw away what little money he had on a replacement if he didn't absolutely need to. It still shoots, surprisingly. Every single shot goes left, and it's incredibly wobbly, and I was and still am a bit skeptical to shoot it because of how ratty it is, but it sends 20ga birdshot in "more-or-less" the direction that it's pointed.

@randalljeffs7272 Год назад

It seems like these guns featured prominently in the Philippine guerilla resistance against the Japanese in WWII. I’d be interested to see whether the Filipinos were ready to use the Richardson because they already knew tactics with single shot shotguns.

@browngreen933 Год назад

Interesting. I own the companion 1894 double Damascus barrel model bought when I was 14 years old for $15. I handloaded black powder shells and used it Pigeon hunting. There was another 1894 Remington double there for $35 in perfect condition (mine was worn) with pretty wood and light engraving. I really wanted it, but $35 was out of my price range.

Where's Ian wearing a red beret with a scope WW1 rifle telling us patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter?

@Candrsenal Год назад

We produce a documentary every other week. So, generously, we have maybe a surplus of 5 hours every 2 weeks to work on macro projects. That's why complicated episodes with extra fiddly bits like having to make reproduction replacements of already cracking lenses from $7,000 sights can take well over a year to organize.

@Edax_Royeaux Год назад

@@Candrsenal I understand you are very busy and Project Lightening was a trial to go through, but I've heard murmurs of a scoped WWI rifle series and I don't know if that still is your plan and that I should be hyped for it, or if it's just an idea you had and you aren't really committed to it.

@Candrsenal Год назад

Presently we have some loan offers, BUT In order to do that special we will need: 1. Secure a lens set for the Gallilean that won't just break 2. Send Mae for long range shooting training 3. Develop match loads for each rifle to be demonstrated 4. Take in loans of the rifles with working glass, becoming financially responsible for said scopes which are scarily likely to break internally at random. This was a LOT easier when the show's budget was nearly 30% bigger. But the YT crush has severely hobbled us. We're shrinking, not growing right now.

If you're not doing either one, well, what ARE you doing then? The correct punctuation for those weird situations is almost on a case-by-case basis to be honest, so be specific.

@VeraTR909 Год назад

I love the elegance in simplicity of this thing, intuitive in it's function. It's about as simple as a door; tube on stock, hinge to get to the back of tube where you stuff the splodey thingies

@Scooter-dm3qo Год назад

A tip on mounting a shotgun. Human faces are distinctly pointy. As a result if you rotate your head against the stock to bring you nose closer to the stock you will move your eye into the centerline of the barrel. The reason the gun shot to the left is not a fault of the gun, it shot left because your mount and you had your face squared up with your right eye offset left of the barrel centerline. If you want to see this in action find a friend with a Sporting O/U setup with a mid bead sight system you can see the result as you roll your face against the stock. Because you will see that the alignment between the mid and front beads is dependent on the position of your face.

@garyedwards5955 Год назад

"By the way I cut my hand . . ."; did you spray Ballistol on that, too? When it was issued to German troops, it was as a light-duty first aid for cuts and scrapes, in addition to its use on lock, stock & barrel. I looked on Amazon, and see current versions of Ballistol for sporting goods, for first aid, and to keep your pet's fur coat smooth and glossy.

In Viet Nam, 12 gauge pumps were fairly common, but not on the books. The dense jungle patrol often had 1 or 2 per squad, but they would also sling an M-16 for show.

I use shot cups with my black powder cartridge shotguns, the combination of black powder and shot cup gives superb patterns, better then a lot of smokeless loads. I also don't shoot them in really nice vintage shotguns, but I have had to restore to shooting conditions. As far as the transition from the shotgun to the rifle, I would of had a few rifles per squad and the rest shotguns, like a modern squad with a Saw. I don't see a lot of long range in a jungle shooting, but a few rifles per squad would keep you from being pinned down and maybe force them to either leave or charge, the the shotguns could be brought to bear. In thick brush, the opposite would happen, where the shotgun would shine and the rifle would most probably be ineffective except with a bayonet. Just my two cents. You could also have a rifle and pistol combo to be effective also. I can't remember, what they ended up doing off hand. Nice video as always.

English gunmaking, which this action is based on , your " lugs" are " lumps", your " notches " are " bites", your " latch" is a " top lever" and your " firing pin " is a " striker". The sliding part that locks into the bites on the lumps you are correct is the " bolt".

@alancranford3398 Год назад

This type of shotgun may have been America's most common firearm from 1880 to 1940. Extractor-only was a plus for cheapskate shooters of the period because the shell was retained for reloading. The most expensive part of the shotgun shell was the hull, and a paper hull could be reloaded five times, roughly. The few expensive brass hulls were far more expensive but could be reloaded dozens of times. The lack of surviving brass shotgun shells should tell historians that the cheaper paper hulled shotgun shells were good enough. AS for "weapons of war," as late as Vietnam the US Army purchased quantities and issued them for civilian village defense forces. Good video! In 1900 more than one army issued single shot rifles. A single shot scattergun with buckshot would have been a valid village defense weapon and more than one American sheriff's posse had a number of similar shotguns to this Remington as late as the 1950's. My father's shotgun was a Winchester Model 37 in 16 gauge with a full choke barrel.

@imadequate3376 Год назад

Oh my God. This is the FIRST shotgun I EVER hunted with at the tender age of 7. I couldn't remember for the life of me what I was shooting but I remember clearly after seeing the parts. I just remember it was "an old, reliable single shot 12ga" and my dad decided to start me there. Unfortunately, it has left our family's possession but in my opinion for a good cause. Moving to a my dads old Browing BPS at about 9 or 10 and at 14 my father buying me another shotgun, a new cattailed cammoed BPS (I'm a lefty and its the best lefty pump for hunting on the market in my opinion). The single shot was passed to a family friend for his young son to learn to shoot, care for and hunt with and years later I can say he is successful in it. That old single shot not only taught me the fundamentals but also how to be a dead shot with peasant seeing as I only had my one shot I made it count.

@bobsmith-ru7xp Год назад

I believe that this shotgun is the same model as the 16g that hangs above the fireplace at my grandma's house. My great grandpa had two guns, the Remington 16g that I mentioned, and the Stevens .22/.410 that is at my dad's house. They both went to my late grandfather, and he gave the Remington to my uncle and the Stevens to my deaddy.
