This video provides an in-depth examination of the Guycot rocket ball chain rifle system from 1879, a rare and commercially unsuccessful firearm. It details the unique ammunition, a hollow-based bullet with a powder charge and primer, which eliminated the need for extraction. The analysis covers the rifle's design, markings, internal workings, and a comparison to the Spencer rifle. Despite its innovative features, the Guycot was underpowered, expensive to produce, and its proprietary ammunition was fragile and costly, contributing to its limited production and market failure. The video also briefly mentions the pistol variants and provides links to related content.
This video from Shot Show 2018 explores the unique Franklin Armory REFORMATION. The firearm is designed to circumvent NFA SBR regulations through its unusual straight rifling and proprietary "football shaped" projectile. The description highlights claims of 1 MOA accuracy at 100 yards with this special ammunition, though it notes "sporadic" results with standard rounds. The content aims to discuss the rifle, its ammunition, and the rationale behind Franklin Armory's claims.
This video delves into the historical significance and technical aspects of the Thuer Conversion Colt 1849 Revolver. It explains how this conversion was an early attempt to adapt percussion revolvers to self-contained metallic cartridges during a time when the Rollin White patent restricted cylinder boring. The Thuer conversion utilized a proprietary centerfire cartridge loaded from the front and press-fit into the cylinder. The description highlights the limitations of this system, including the reliance on special ammunition, and how it lost favor once the White patent expired. The video likely explores the engineering challenges and historical context of this unique firearm modification, with a nod to its place in the evolution of firearms technology.
