I Have This Old Gun: Spanish "Ruby" Pistols
This "American Rifleman Television" segment explores the history and utility of the Spanish "Ruby" pistol, a sidearm adopted by the French military during World War I. Facing a shortage of standard issue revolvers, the French government turned to Spanish manufacturers in the Eibar region for a stopgap solution. The resulting "Ruby" pistols were produced in vast quantities to arm troops. The video features a range demonstration of these historic firearms.
