This video features firearm expert Jonathan Ferguson examining dueling pistols specifically designed to cheat. Unlike previous discussions where the existence of 'dueling pistols' was questioned, these are presented as genuine examples, built with a hidden rifling feature to provide an unfair advantage. The Royal Armouries, the UK's national collection of arms and armour, is behind this content, offering viewers a behind-the-scenes look at their collection and encouraging engagement through comments and support.
This video delves into the historical context of self-defense, specifically focusing on dueling practices in 18th-century England. It features a film clip from the Self-defence gallery at the Royal Armouries museum in Leeds, offering a glimpse into the weaponry and social customs associated with dueling during that era. While the description doesn't specify firearms models, the historical setting strongly implies the use of period-appropriate handguns.
