This video features a detailed look at one of the five prototypes of Tommy Steele's TS V semi-automatic carbine. The carbine boasts full ambidextrous controls, multiple safety features, and an integrated suppressor designed to reduce muzzle velocity of standard 9mm ammunition below the speed of sound. The description provides background on Tommy Steele's military and armorer career in Rhodesia and South Africa, where the TS V was developed in the mid-1980s and prototypes were produced in 1996-1997.
