On Scurvy... as I understand it, the practical reasons for alleviation of symptoms was replaced by a theory of causation caused by scorbutics, and the alleviation was anti- scorbutics. They had no real understanding of vitamin defiecencies. Of course, they also thought that the Arctic Ocean had a warm spot above canada, and ships would be able to just sail right on through. So bad science all the way around for the Franklin Expedition.

Totally agree. The OG of the military industrial complex

I admit to a sudden desire to search the original source documents between 1847 and 1849 to find the letter from Walker to Colt requesting that the revolver's loading lever be modified to have "wingalings" XD

Samuel Colt’s shenanigans are begging to be turned into an HBO show or movie. With how crazy he was, even historical liberties taken in the script have a good chance of actually being true.

How considerate - Mae demonstrated the Colt Navy in front of a large body of water.

Excelllent as always, outstanding amount of information. It is too bad no one has made a replica of the Beaumont-Adams for comparison. Being a dyed in the wool double action shooter I would love to see that.

The brass-iron-discussion. Perhaps someone just likes the look of brass? It looks good in my view, but I guess tats vary.
