Unfortunately there are a bunch of "royal navies" for various kingdoms. It's a bit easier to just say British and remain consistent.

Did not notice any corrections myself, but just a thought that Othias’s schpeel on the homemade spring vice might make a good short for YouTube.

As a brit, I would say its ok for a foreigner to call it the British navy, after all there are other Royal navies, e.g the Dutch, the Swedish and so on.

56:05 doctrine: at the time nobody was aiming and shooting double action, you do one or the other.

6:29 and 7:20 - "...the British Navy..." should be "...the Royal Navy..." Generally, the ‘Royal Navy’ is understood to mean Britain’s Royal Navy. 33:38, 39:30- "...the Navy." is OK but "for the Royal Navy." would be better. (A certain Drach would have a fit if you called it the British Navy.)

Guido Schriewer

mae's favorite reprocussion? still a wide field to cover.

Wow! Been looking forward to this episode for a long, long time. Saw these and Webley No. 5s in Victorian-era store catalogues like Army and Navy Stores but didn't find alot info. on the net. I secretly hoped you would say these were like Colt SAAs with European style and double action upgrades. Oh well. And thank you for the gunsmithing tips. Really helps the collector who plans to shoot and repair these guns.
