This video explores the Pedersen Selfloading Rifle, a competitor to the iconic M1 Garand for US military adoption. It details John Pedersen's background and design principles, including his innovative toggle-locking mechanism and the specialized .276 Pedersen cartridge. The description highlights the cartridge lubrication issue as a key factor in why the Garand was chosen. The video also touches on the limited production of the Pedersen rifle by Vickers in England, making them rare collector's items, and Pedersen's overall legacy as a highly regarded firearm designer.
