Venables was in buissness till 1985. As this was being marketed to probably British Aristocracy, or some rich American Johhny come latley. I'll bet it spent time in the workshop being tarted up. Dazzle = Diamonds :-)

The Russians did convert some of their 1857 six line muzzleloaders to breech loaders. It became known as the Krnka (anglicized to Krenk) in 1867. It was similar to a snider conversion, but whereas that opened to the right the Krnka opened to the left. It had a strange hammer where it was modified to have the striking part cut off, and a new central one placed in to be in line with the central firing pin. Some were still used up to and in the Russo-Turkish war 1877-78. It was not the easiest to use after several shots due to black powder fouling as it was hard to extract casings. These are very difficult to find (at least in the U.S.), and the rounds are practically non-existent. It was specifically a 15.24x40mmR cartridge.

Thank you for the Informative video. When it comes to some very old or primitive small arms, then in Russia we still use such a colloquial synonym as "Berdanka".

Nice piece of interesting history!

In Lithuania we use a slang term "bardankė" for old huge hunting rifles or smoothbores. Sometimes even as a funny term for our more modern service rifles. Paramilitary union still use some of Swedish G3 - AK4MT, that is a little more obsolete and fits this term better, but is still a very capable gun. That is not in any way an original lithuanian language word and it surely came from russian language slang when held occupied by Soviet Russia 1940-1941 and 1944-1990 and by Russian Empire 1795-1915. Now I understand where EXACTLY this slang came from. Thanks, Ian! And a cheering salute from my DD MK18 for all our American pals and their support for our freedom !

Nice. Don't think i have heard of these. Berdan sounds like a complex character with perhaps a bit of scoundrel mixed in. The period from about 1860 or 62 to the early 1890's (or late 1890's to i clude the 98 Mauser) is a fascinating period of innovation. From paper cartridge muzzleloaders to large bore rimfires to centerfire, trapdoors to single shot bolt actions and then repeaters, black powder to smokeless powder needing special steels.

About 3 million were produced, so many many more than the BI.
