I find it amazing that this loading mechanism never caught on among other armies outside of Scandanavia. It seems so simple yet effective and seems not to compromise accuracy for rate of fire to any measurable degree.

I know right its way less hassle just gotta count your shots excessive fouling after awhile acts as a barrel obstruction id figure it need a wad cleaning after so many shots but even only adding that its higly effective at throwing lead rapidly compared. be fun to hunt with for sure

The American Army issued M1819 Hall rifle used the same loading system and was converted to cap firing in the 1830’s. It was a top hammer having originally been a flintlock.

@robertlewis8295

The Hall did not use a camming mechanism to get a better seal. They used thin sheet metal to protect the stock at the front of the chamber. Stupidly enough, the last model (Hall-North) made for the US military was a smooth bore, the earlier versions were rifled. Responsible for an early civil war scandal, they were declared obsolete and sold 5,000 off for $3.50 each, then in the arms panic the US bought them back for $22 each. The .52 caliber barrel was rifled and the chamber was bored out to accept a .58 caliber projectile (yes, chamber only was increased, not bore size), but that work apparently only cost $0.75 per gun.

@@w0t3rdog This gun is way too fiddly to reload on horseback. There were plenty of similar breech loading weapons made for that reason. This gun is clearly for shooting long ranges quickly and with a good seal.

That has to be the best black powder rifle of its day. Has anyone ever made a reproduction of that one? It would be on my list if it was available. Such an interesting rifle, fast and efficient to load and shoot. Thank you for giving us a closeup look.

I wished the Kammerlader style came earlier in the flintlock age. I think it would work really well and better than a lot of other breechloader flintlocks.

This is greatly superior than the Springfields and Enfield's that we fought the American Civil War with.

Amazing. I have never seen anything like that in my 50 years as a firearm enthusiast.

In addition to BlokeOnTheRange's video on the Kammerlader, there's also Mark Novak's videos on bringing a derelict one back to life. The two videos - iirc it's one for the stock and one for the metal work - amply illustrate the kind of cracking you can find on badly worn examples.

I enjoyed the demonstration of this firearm as well as the history of its creation. The pictures that you provided to help describe certain aspects were also appreciated.

I love all these old guns. Thank you so much for putting videos like these on here.

I absolutely love this channel!! Especially when it comes to how you go about doing your reloads. It really helps me and I'm sure countless others who love reloading. It sets me in the right direction and also how to do it! Especially when it comes to old black powder brass cartridges.

Thanks for a great bit of history and information on this ignition system and on the rifle.The extra powder tightened the group a lot.Thanks for sharing from Australia

I thought that was a repro at first, that gun was insanely well kept for being 180 years old.

I've been waiting for a good video featuring the Kammerlader, thanks!

paper cartridges are very elegant, and setting aside one Saturday of the week to fire a weapon like that seems to be very good ❤

Wow, amazing rifle. Great job presenting the history, a mad minute and disassembly.

I have never seen or heard about this method of loading, especially surprised the design/principle already dates back to medieval times!

Great video as always. You make creating the cartridge look easy. It takes skill.

What a amazing rifle and video. Thank you so much. These rifle makes my Gewerh 98 a youth rifle, as your Kammerlader are 66 years older.

Oh I see! ...I'm not a shooter so I was curious about that white 'blinker' you were wearing , then I noticed it allowed you to keep both eyes open while firing. You learn something new every day. Wonderful looking rifle, I was trying to work out what Britain was using by comparison in the 1850s [Pattern 1853 Enfield muzzle-loader] and wonder how the Kammerlader compared to the American Hall breech loader? Excellent video (as usual). Thank you.

great video about a great Rifle. I saw many other channels where they always complained about the gas sealing, and that it was not very well designed. When I see your shooting, it looks almost perfect 👍👍 Thanks for another guns history lesson, wrapped in good entertainment

Boy, that's really an interesting rifle and breech system! My interests have tended to go earlier and earlier. I haven't reached a matchlock yet, but that rifle could definitely change my interest direction. Thanks for something really new to me.

I'm amazed that such a beautifully ingenious system was not more widely adopted. Way ahead of its time. Lovely rifle.

Amazing, i have never seen anything like this, love the channel

Compared to the British Enfield or the US early model muzzle loading rifles, this gun has the potential of a fire rate of at least twice as many rounds per minute. Plus, this gun can be reloaded from prone, which makes it a stellar weapon for use in the new environment of very accurate shoulder arms fired from defensive concealment. The camming system used to move the chamber into the breech to get a good gas seal, along with the hidden hammer and cap placement makes this a great weapon for its time. With hollow based conical bullets (minie balls), this rifle would have been a winner in the US Civil War, had anyone over here known about it and had it been produced in numbers for export.

"Love everything wood and metal, and comes from Sweden". Growing up in the 1960s, I'm well aware of futuristic (non-plastic) furniture from Scandinavia, that became very popular at that time, both in Europe and America.

Very cool design! Most impressive for that time period. Thanks for sharing.

I've been looking forward to this video since you first announced you had gotten yourself a kammarladdningsgevär m/1851. And as always I found it to be a great video! Well done! I can absolutely understand why it was the Swedish navy that adopted it. I rifle like this must have been ALOT handier to use from the confined spaces on a ship than a standard muzzle loader. Especially for those serving on the smaller coastal vessels meant to defend the different Swedish archipelagos. Many of these were small but crowded gun, bomb and mortar sloops or galleys amongst others. But even on the larger ships breach loaders like this must have been extremely handy for men stationed in the crows nests to snipe at the decks of enemy ships.

And : A Seitengewehr is a bayonnet. One of the polearms used in 18th century by infantry officers on foot is in german called ,Kurzgewehr' and in old texts before 1800 it is often unklear, which kind of weapon is meant with ,Gewehr'. Next to my homevillage is a town, which was fortfied until about 1830s. But the gate guards had been mostly allways no soldiers, only citizens who had do do this duty ( everyone for a short time). Some years ago, in a newspaper article you could read, about 1760 from those citizens who had to do this, two of three had their own Gewehr. But had they a Gewehr in modern sense, or was in the old document meant, two of three men had a weapon ( and the poor ones not?). When a german word starts with Ge it means ,a lot of', for example Gesang- a lot of singing, Geschrei- a lot of shouting and so Gewehr - a lot of defence ( sich wehren- to defend yourself/ die Wehr - the weapon).

@@brittakriep2938 Not sure if i fully understand what you are trying to say, but the word "Gevär" is a loanword from German. It got introduced in the 1500s, and it originally had a broader meaning, example it could mean "to arm yourself" or it could be any weapon. But in the 1600s, it came to just mean "Rifle", and pretty much does so even now. We do have compound variations on the word, like Hunting Rifle = Jaktgevär, Sniper Rifle = Prickskyttgevär, Machine Gun = Kulsprutegevär. I don't think the word is used for anything other than just "Rifle".
