This video provides an in-depth look at the Tirmax, a rare pre-WW1 .32 ACP light carbine manufactured in Liege by a German company between 1909 and 1914. The description details its simple blowback operation with a heavy hammer spring for increased bolt resistance and a manually cocking lever. The reviewer highlights the scarcity of these firearms due to their limited production before WWI. During range testing, the specific example experienced significant issues, including feeding problems and a dangerous slam-fire incident where three rounds discharged rapidly, prompting the reviewer to cease firing. The owner plans to have it inspected by a gunsmith.
This video provides a detailed look at the .32ACP Dreyse Light Carbine, a rare and somewhat mysterious firearm manufactured by Rheinmetall and designed by Louis Stange. The presenter highlights its unusual nature, commercial availability despite limited historical documentation, and its suitability as a small game rifle. Key features discussed include its simple blowback action, 6-round detachable magazine, and its relatively quiet report due to the small caliber and long barrel. The video also notes its shared design elements with the Dreyse 1907 pistol.
