This ARTV preview showcases a behind-the-scenes look at Remington Ammunition manufacturing, detailing the production of 9mm Luger and rifle ammunition like Core-Lokt. It then shifts to a review of the American-made Taurus TX 22 Competition pistol, a semi-automatic chambered in .22 Long Rifle with features like a threaded barrel and optics rail. Finally, the video delves into the historical significance of the French Model 1886 Lebel rifle, the first smokeless powder rifle and France's primary infantry weapon in WWI, highlighting its evolution from single-shot to a tubular magazine-fed repeater. Past episodes are available on americanrifleman.org/artv, with new episodes airing on Outdoor Channel.
