First known firing of any type of gun in England was 1304, the English fired a Kraken, short barrell on a pole at the Scots. First illustration of a piece of ordnance occurs in a treatise by one Walter de Millemete entitled De Officiis Regum (On the Duties of Kings). Dated 1326, it is preserved in the library of Christ Church, Oxford. The gun was called a vaso from the Italian for a vase which it closely resembled. The Gunner is pictured in the act of firing the piece by inserting a red-hot iron into the vent. The projectile leaving the muzzle was a species of arrow known as a dart, carreau or quarrel. The gun has no carriage; it simply lies on a trestle table in this drawing and others they are aimed at doorways. In 1346 the English were using tubes fixed on a rack, called a Ribaldequin, loaded with gunpowder and lead pellots at the French at the Battle of Crecy 1399 Richard 11 took Pole Guns on his invasion of Ireland, not known how many but there were 35 Handgonnes were recorded to be in the Tower of London at the time. As a point of reference firearms were not recorded a Muskets untill 1527, first record of a matchlock musket. At this time guns started to be named after Birds of Prey, Falcon Saker, Robin and Musquette (French for a Male Sparrowhawk) which is where we got the word Musket.

@SlyBlu7

Yep, and the Jaeger had the same origins as the American Rifleman - 'Jaeger' translates literally to 'hunter' and resulted from German experiments in organizing units of elite marksmen who were familiar with the terrain, to range ahead of the army and pick off enemy troops. These tactics were also understood by the colonial French in the Caribbean and Southern America during the 17th century. The boucaniers used 6-7ft long guns to hunt for wild pigs and cattle. The marksmanship and familiarity of these men with even with the smoothebore muskets, made them fearsome opponents for the Spanish on Hispaniola. When the English arrived in the region, they made allies of these French (mostly dispossessed Huguenots) to use as scouts, to hunt victuals, and as marksmen during their raids.

Our Revolutionary War had its seeds in the English Civil War, IMO. Many of the Puritans who settled New England were supporters of Oliver Cromwell's Roundheads, and thus were against Royal Authority, and even against the very idea of Monarchy. New Englanders, I don't think, were ever comfortable with rule by an English King. So, they picked on issues to express their opposition. I think the taxation and representation issues were smoke screens for the real issues that grated which was "rule by a king".

@toady7741

The same could be said of the French Revolution, the Glorious Revolution and the Revolution of 1848. Though much less celebrated, the English Civil War probably served as their main precedent. But the problem with the Parliamentarian victory was a classical one: the idealistic Cromwell soon became a tyrant/despot/autocrat himself. The English people hated his theocracy and reverted back to the crown. Washington was aware of that, and carefully avoided Cromwell's later course of action.

14:47 "what do you mean, 'get in the sea,'? It's a great hat!" "God says no, now bugger off, you feathery show-off..."

This series SHOULD be called the history of firearms. They spend 1/10th the time actually talking about the design of the firearms...

22:20 You need to give two calibers for all smoothbore muskets, you can't just say "The Brown Bess was about .75 caliber". The shot has a smaller caliber than the bore, in order to make loading as easy as possible. In the case of the Brown Bess the calibers are 0.75 for the bore, 0.69 for the shot. 23:00 Some nuance is needed in describing the accuracy of smoothbore muskets, because yes, they were extremely inaccurate. But that is "extremely inaccurate" by modern standards. I often get the impression that people think of musket accuracy as being about the same as the shot spread of a video game shotgun, when in fact no weapon in history has ever been so inaccurate as that. Some number might provide more context. Contemporary writers seemed to consider about 75 yards to be the point target effective range for a smoothbore musket (not that they would have used that exact terminology), meaning that about 75 yards is about the range that they expect a single shooter to be able to hit a single man-sized target (although, with an accuracy of ~30 arcminutes (0.5 degrees), about 50 meters is about the distance at which a perfectly aimed musket will put every shot inside a 40cm circle (the average width of a human from shoulder to shoulder is a bit over 40cm)). They considered the "battle range" (the distance at which a battalion of troops could effectively engage an opposing battalion formed in close order, roughly equivalent to the modern concept of "area target effective range") of a smoothbore musket to be about 200 yards. Depending on the type of musket and how well maintained it is it would have an accuracy of around 24-36 arcminutes (0.4 degrees to 0.6 degrees, at 100 meters that gives an impact area from 0.7 meters-1.05 meters wide). For comparison, the minimum acceptable accuracy for a modern military rifle is about 4 arcminutes (0.067 degrees, at 100 meters that gives an impact area just under 12cm wide), with some military rifles achieving an accuracy of 2 arcminutes (0.033 degrees, giving a 6cm impact area at 100 meters). But of course they did not have modern rifles to compare them with at the time, so they likely would not have thought of smoothbore muskets as being particularly inaccurate. 24:08 A good soldier get get off 3 AIMED shots in a minute. I too have seen people achieve 4 or 5 shots in a minute, but those shots are not being aimed at a target (they were shooting for speed only, sometimes even using unrealistic range gimmicks like holding extra cartridges between the fingers of the right hand). 24:25 0.69 caliber bore, 0.65 caliber shot. 26:12 Technically a rifled barrel only fires a bullet more accurately. A smoothbore can shoot exactly as far, but there isn't as much point in firing at those distances since there isn't a high enough probability of actually hitting something. So a rifled barrel has a longer "effective range", but the effective range is dictated by accuracy, not by a hard limit on how far the shot can actually travel.

I’ve been trying to think of different concepts for an alternate history. If the Roman Empire didn’t fall or there were no dark ages, and manufacturing and scientific knowledge never declined or stagnated, then the evolution of firearms would be very different. It would still take past the year 1000 for gunpowder to come about, but more elaborate cross bows and possibly even air gun type technology might’ve come about before the introduction of gunpowder, and that would lead to an even faster evolution of firearms because they would already have the basic concept down, and possibly even rifling. The concept of semi automatic would’ve come about faster even without the invention of air guns beforehand, simply because the manufacturing knowledge would be more widespread when they first came about in the 1600s, and be adopted faster by militaries. But if air guns existed before, it’s possible they could have semiautomatic rifles only decades after the introduction of gunpowder to the west. This would lead to literally almost a thousand years of 19th-early 20th century style warfare mixed with the aesthetics and politics of those times. The period of knights in plate armor when guns were on the battlefield wouldnt be a short blip of history. Then as manufacturing increases, even if they don’t come upon modern computing, they would have tubes eventually, and be able to make much more advanced tubes and tube based technologies. Almost steam punk.

@@Nebulasecura your right but it’s not just because of current events and the current political climate and things going on, what’s about to happen has been coming for decades.. I (and no one else I know that feels like I do) don’t want violence. WE REALLY don’t want violence but I’m afraid the point of no return has come and gone YEARS ago, it’s been building and building really since the War of Northern Aggression ended (civil war if your a damn yankee l) I mean just look at what’s going on with the election. The half of the country that didn’t vote for Biden is pretty much being told we don’t matter, get over it, fraud hell or high water Biden is the next president and no matter how much you expose the LITERAL FUCKIN FRAUD and corruption in the Democratic Party and in this election, it doesn’t matter, he still won. They are now alienating and disenfranchising literally half of the country right now and it’s only a matter of time until this thing goes hot. All that being said I didn’t vote for trump I voted libertarian but I’m just as pissed because A LOT of votes got stolen, switched, changed (whatever you wanna call it it doesn’t matter, it’s fraud all the same) from Jo Jorgensen too to keep her from breaking the 5% cap and given to Biden. And if/when they actually try to go through with this whole thing and prop Biden up and actually nominate him as president at the end of this month regardless of how much evidence we have shown if it being fraudulent and then cheating, well... We aren’t going to just give it to em, they are going to have to take it, by force if necessary. And that’s just all there is too it my friend.. Stay safe and keep your ear to the ground and you powder dry, some shit is about to GO DOWN!!!!

@@jordannewsom4578 Amen. George Washington was certainly very right when he warned of the consequences of these political parties, and now his prediction has almost uncannily come true. And while I don’t consider Trump to be the easiest president to talk about, its absolutely absurd how much disrespect and anti-American the media has been. I believe in a just and fair election, this was the total opposite of what the founding fathers intended for this republic. Indeed we must stock up and be ready for either another war between these political ideologies, or another Revolution. This makes the red scare of the 20th century look tame in comparison. I consider the American war between north and south not as a civil war, but as an unavoidable tragedy that resulted in the tragic loss of hundreds of thousands of men. Regardless of their cause, they died for their beliefs and should be honored, regardless of which side they were on.

Don't y'all remember that America started as a Dutch colony, if the Netherlands never gave America to England the world would be very different
