This video showcases two vintage firearms with compelling backstories: a 1917 Colt 1911 believed to have served with the USMC and brought back from France by a priest, and a BYF 44 P.38 carried by a 5th Armored Division soldier, complete with a custom holster containing wedding bands. It also promotes the creator's Patreon page, "Flak & Fubar" podcast, and Instagram.
This YouTube Shorts video features Tom sharing a 'vet bring back story' about combat engineer James Sharpe. While the specific firearms or details of the bring back are not provided in the description, the context strongly suggests a narrative related to military history and potentially firearms that a soldier might have acquired or encountered during their service in World War 2.
This Q&A session, filmed in Finland, features Mike and Fabien from the Bloke on the Range YouTube channel joining the host. The discussion covers a wide range of historical and modern firearms, including early smokeless rifles, Swiss straight-pull rifles (like the Stgw 57), comparing the Stgw 57 with the FAMAS, and discussing "bring backs" in Europe. They also touch upon Swiss gun laws, the perception of the Bloke on the Range channel, and compare various rifle platforms such as the P14/M1917 and SMLE/No4, and FAL vs G3. Ammunition prices, availability in Europe, and recommendations for new shooters are also addressed. Specific calibers like .303 and 7.5x55 are debated, along with modifying sporterized SMLEs. The conversation delves into Switzerland's decision not to adopt NATO calibers, surprising firearms, non-military manufacturers of SMLE parts, the impact of hollow point bans on 9mm vs larger handgun calibers in Switzerland, and the best breech-loading conversion systems. The video also promotes the Bloke on the Range and Forgotten Weapons Patreon pages and merchandise.
