I remember in 9th grade (2002), we had a couple Korean War veterans bring some old rifles from the Civil War and they told stories of their service and of their ancestors who fought in the Civil War (one veteran had a Union ancestor, the other had a Confederate ancestor) and it was one of the best experiences I had in school.

I used to watch him make his own bullets and cartridges, and go to the range with him. He would've loved to BS with you. He's been gone 6 years now and I miss him. I never got into guns like him, but always believe strongly in our rights. I'm getting very interested in guns now and shooting them with my kids.

In the 2nd Slesvig War of 1864, the Danish troops was equipped with Caplocks and even some Flintlocks while the Prussians and Austrians had Trapdoor rifles. The advantage was so overwhelming that every major power rushed to the Trapdoor design in such a hurry that they tried to convert all their frontloaders as fast as possible since even minor powers didnt want to buy them. They were basically seen as useless by that point.

Having intimate experience with the M-16, M-16 A2 and the M4, I love by far the M4. It was light, easy to use and was accurate. The selector for three round burst (same for the A2) was a huge step in the right direction. Thanks for sharing this video and thanks for clarifying that the rifles you showed were issued rifles not popular rifles.

I owned a 30/40 Kraig and loved it. Then traded it for the 8mm Mauser. I still think loading the Kraig was far faster. But watching this video reminded me that in my life I've owned every weapon that we carried into battle since our inception. Kind of a proud feeling. Thanks for doing such a great run down of military innovation throughout our history

Ben you're on point I love how this man paints a picture .

1:26 I've both studied a lot of history, both for fun and in school, and gone target shooting a fair amount, but I've never actually seen a video of a flintlock firing before. The delay between the flint igniting the powder and the gun actually firing is both trippy and awesome, you sort of expect the noise at the first ignition, get nothing, and then a second later see a second ignition and hear the report as the burning powder actually fires the ball. Really neat stuff.

Hickhock has more guns then austrlia

I'm an actor, so I don't usually get to fire actual bullets, but I've fired a lot of real guns. Most guns are about as heavy as you expect them to be, because they're made of steel. My first modern gun was the M4A1; it's shockingly light. So is the M82. And even at high caliber, you don't even feel it. No wood, very little steel, crazy easy to fire--especially if you have a crew of weapons handlers on set. Someone handed me the M82 because I had proven to be the only competent gun guy on set. As if a total beginner, he explained, "This is safe mode," and then I flipped it and said, "This is nobody's safe mode," and we laughed our butts off.

I keep coming back to this video because i'm obsessed with the Krag's feeding system and how you can just chuck some cartridges inside a compartment.

Man I wish he reloaded the m1 garand for the sound.

The M16 we had in Vietnam had a 20 round magazine. We'd tape two back-to-back so you could turn it over and fire the second magazine without having to reach for a pouch. When I first arrived in-country, in early 1969 I had an M-14 w/ the auto adapter. I changed units and received the M-16.

Interesting story: they were trying to get rid of the krag rifle so they gave them away/ sold them dirt cheap as hunting guns. So my Great Great Grandad, in the mountains of North Carolina, bought one. So my grandad has an 1898 krag he got from his dad. Real cool!
