The details about the blue'd finish, magazine witness holes and mismatched fire control components is why I love this channel.

Whoever owns that fireplace also has an insane collection of rare pistols. IIRC it’s in the background of the C96 series, Bergmann, and the Savage pistol videos.

@jamesharrison2374 10 месяцев назад

Great video. I owned a 210-4 BGS Version for many years, and have traded it off. Have a 49 on my wish list to go with my K-31, G-96/11, and my 1929 Swiss Revolver. Would love to go back to Switzerland and take part again in some of the rifle and pistol matches. Was active from 1989-1998 before moving to the US.

Recently inherited my grandfather's 2nd series P49 (A105738), including the original holster, a spare magazine, and 10 rounds (dated June 1954, so I probably won't fire those). Haven't had a chance to shoot it yet, but it handles really nicely so far. Edit: Shoots like a dream.

Thank you for the always interesting Videos, Ian. The seperate flap on the inside of the Holster was tucked behind the Grip of the Pistol in the "open Top" configuration to some form of a quick-draw Setup. Works quite fast, when you were used to it. Best regards from Switzerland!

Could be just me but I find the "Industrial" 4th pattern far more attractive. Only shot a SIG once, so long ago I can't remember the model but it was shorter than that, anyway, it was a smooth, straight shooting, gun that just felt quality.

@conradgrundy238 6 лет назад

Amazing as usual man, this is a huge ask given how little this gun is known but could you find out about the RSC SMG devised by Ribeyrolles, Chauchat and Sutter? It fired the 8mm Lebel round and was the first port firing weapon (PFW) beyond that and it's rather unique look is all I know about it. Yes I do play BF1 and yes I have seen this gun around but I would love to see a real version of it, if there are any left that is.

@wingwangtingtang 6 лет назад

Actually thinking of military holsters with cool little features have you guys ever had one of those weird makarov holsters that let you draw it by pushing it through the bottom of the holster which racks the slide?

And I also own a original SIG .22LR training system (totally slide assembly w. Spring & Barrel and a different magazine) for this pistol. So I can shot the same pistol with it's match-grade Trigger in 3 different calibers.

@sksaddrakk5183 4 года назад

The pistol A101219 at 01:15 is a service pistol which was kept by the officer/NCO after he was discharged from the Army... this is visible by the stamped in P at the triggerguard... BTW to this day this costs you all in all 70 bucks (20 for the police record (or rather the proof of a lack thereof) and 50 for the registration), I kept my service pistol (a SIG 220) with no money spent on the gun itself... Same goes for the AR by the way. Servicemen may keep it for an administrative charge of 100 bucks (more expensive, as a gun smith has to disable automatic fire mode, converting it into a semi-auto rifle)...

@wauser5456 6 лет назад

That extra rivet in the shoulder strap that allows you to fold it might have been so they could use shorter pieces of leather or use the same length of cut as another piece of leather found on the holster elsewhere, just guess though.

@BAdventures 6 лет назад

I also think the extra rivet was to help with folding for storage. But it would change the way it sits on the shoulder. Leather is a stiffer material and might cut into the shoulder or sit on an awkward angle. The rivet might have added some flexibility at the shoulder, while helping the strap sit flatter across the chest and back. commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:1930er_Jahre_Schweizer_Armee_Uniformen.jpg

@USSEnterpriseA1701 6 лет назад

It's a fairly nice pistol, it's pretty similar handling to the model 92 with a vertec style of grip. The only problems I've ever even heard about them having was the short lived .357 sig model had a tendency to beat itself to death, the 9mm, .40 s&w, and .45 acp models seem to avoid that issue. Not a bad pistol, but not as 'up to date' as some people would like.

Of course, there are some private once in 7.65x21 Parabellum and some privately converted P49 in 7.65 30 Mauser? This cartridge is 7.63x25mm. Did you try to shoot it allready?

Not so much with these guns, but many of the ones you fire have some strange rounds, it would be very interesting, to me at least having been a hand loader for many years, to get a close up of some of the strange ammo you come across, then compare it to a known round. Just a suggestion, I do love your videos, and watch nearly every one you post, the exception being the book reviews, I know many are into such things, but I have long ago given up the printed word, for the LED screens. Sad to, since I am a published writer, but haven't written for publication now for 10 years or more. The doctors have put a stop to that with all the meds they keep pushing on me to keep me going, it clouds the mind and inhibits the imagination, it blocks the spelling portion, and were it not for auto correct, I would hardly be able to post anymore.
