At 0:12:35 you say pivoting barrel and cylinder assembly. But it looks like a sliding assembly. I know that's splitting hairs in some sense but to me it seems important :)

You've probably already seen it but the Swiss archives has huge amounts of info on the prices for repair and private sales on these and other Swiss weapons. These were not cheap. A Vetterli rifle cost 90CHF, the revolver cost 55CHF

The most perfect hoplophile's fidget toy, with an elegant action.

57:10 This is when you need a rapidly deployable green screen. Just saying...

Mae Responding: "A new 10.4mm cartridge with a now copper coated bullet had been introduced just as soon as 1919."

That thing is like a fidget cube, with so many tangible clicks and textures. I would love to have one just to fondle.

At 50.02 Othias says 1990 instead of 1890

break top or swing out is the improvement. auto-eject is foolishness...

The shooting footage gives a real feel for what a battle would have been like with hundreds or thousands of black powder arms being fired at the same time...

I love the smoky footage

...intricate, not ornate...

Personally I thought it would be the Villar Perosa derailing the 1911 cause I know they already filmed that.
David Herman
is it just me, or does Schmidt's speed unload thing remind you of a Merwin and Hulbert?
