Cummings Dot Rifle: Indoor Marksmanship Training
This video analyzes the Cummings Dot Rifle, a World War I-era pseudo-firearm training device developed by Cummings Gun Works of Boston. It was designed to teach marksmanship fundamentals, specifically vertical rifle hold, without the use of live ammunition. The device notably incorporates unfinished Mosin Nagant components, likely sourced from Remington after the Russian Revolution disrupted their contract. The video highlights the historical significance and unique construction of this training tool.
