This video delves into the history and features of the FN Model D, the final iteration of John Moses Browning's iconic BAR (Browning Automatic Rifle). Presented by Keith Ford and Paul Levy from Rock Island Auctions, the FN Model D, developed by Fabrique Nationale, boasts significant upgrades over its predecessor. These include a quick-change barrel, a pistol grip, a takedown system for easier cleaning, an adjustable gas system, and a threaded muzzle for accessories. The video highlights the Model D's heavier barrel with cooling fins designed to prevent warping during sustained fire, a common issue with earlier BARs. It also touches on the various calibers the Model D was chambered in, such as 6.5mm Swedish, 7x57 Mauser, 8x57 Mauser, 7.62 NATO, and .30-06 Springfield. Despite its improvements in handling, the fixed 20-round magazine ultimately limited its widespread military adoption in favor of belt-fed automatic weapons.
This video offers a first look at the Ruger SR-556 Takedown rifle, highlighting its continuous refinement and evolution. The description emphasizes the rifle's adaptable design, including its piston-operated system and the ability to quickly swap between 5.56x45mm NATO and .300 Blackout calibers. Joe Kurtenbach takes the rifle to the range for evaluation.
