    The British bought a BUNCH of Thompsons, but although they liked the gun itself, they were EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE, and were replaced by the STEN - which only cost them the equivalent of $9 each to produce - compared to the $150+ for the Tommy Gun. Unlike the complicated machine work that the Thompson needed, except for the Breech Block, the Barrel and a spring - almost every part of a Sten is stamped sheet metal, and VERY quick and easy to produce.

    Before Nazi occupation of Hungary, these were issued to both Hungarian police and army. They are distinguished by different proof marks. Also of note, the barrel can be removed without removing the slide (note the two notches on the slide). Frommer designed this pistol, but died shortly before it went into production.

    I purchased my Model 12 Winchester at a pawnshop in Kansas when I was 16, in 1961! I paid $67.67 for it and wouldn't sell it for any price! It has a 30 inch tight full choke and a straight stock and the multi-grooved forearm. I was told the stock was a trap stock, but to me it looked like a 30-30 stock! I've done well in a lot of trap shoots, but I prefer to use it for hunting. It's put a lot of meat on the table over the years! There were a little over half a million Model 12s made before this one! I edited this to say these shotguns had a 2 3/4" chamber! People that get in trouble with them try to shoot 3" or 3 1/2" shells in them! They will easily handle any 2 3/4" magnum loads, but don't try to shoot the longer shells in them! For the same reason you wouldn't want to force a .357 magnum cartridge into a 38 special! You will ruin gun!!

    Winchester didn't try to advance the field of semi-auto firearms, these two rifles evolved in a panic from the Model 1903 which in itself was their response to Browning's sale of the patent that became the Remington 8. They dropped the ball and thus could not break Browning's patent of such niceties as a charging handle! They sold abysimally and so, as a consequence are very rare... for example, Winchester sold more Model 1894's in one year (1948) then they sold of ALL of the 1905/7/10's in over 50 years of production.

    What kind of shells are they hunting with? I’ve heard no steel except for modern shotguns. Although at what year they become “modern” hasn’t been made clear. Can they handle buck? 00 shot? #4 shot? I’ve heard that a magnum can blow it apart. Unfortunately there’s no breakdown accept for thousands of opinions on old forums, no videos. Maybe you should make one.

      Also I’d like to add that I remember someone asking a similar question. He said hit shotgun was made in the 50’s and considered that modern??? But the technology in the shotgun was 100 years old. It’s so confusing

    • @2ifbyseatactical
      @2ifbyseatactical 2 місяці тому

      @@ssholed This a great question! So these were designed with Lead Shot in mind. 00 Buck would probably hurt this gun due to its age. You are correct there though that the were not built with modern powder and shot size loads in mind. As far as hunting some states still allow Lead Shot to be used. However, right now on Federal Land it is mandated as steel shot only. It would be awesome to have all this stuff in one location for sure as far as info but that is a huge undertaking. It would be something we could look into if given the staff and time for sure. As far as the shotguns being called "Modern" I personally break it down this way, for this Model 12 I would say it features many "Modern Designs" we still enjoy today on our shotguns, however this gun itself is a Curio & Relic and a Collector type firearm. I would highlight that to demonstrate a lot of our most "modern" guns are not that dismilar funcunality wise from those in the past. A lot of the upgrades are cosmetic or fine tuning older designs if that makes sense. This is all confusing stuff and hard to keep up with for sure haha

Whole battalions where most guys ran burp guns-- something that gave food for thought for adopting the early AKs.

    Thanks for promoting the Carl Gustav! The quality of these guns is famous. The Italian Carcanos did predate the Swede in 6.5mm by a couple of years btw, although their clever simplicity was negated by poor manfacturing. On an enduring note, there are many thousands of 'elderly fanboy' 6.5x55 shooters and handloaders who can achieve similar muzzle velocities to the well-engineered Creedmoor. Tikka and Sauer and Howa offer modern, affordable chambers in the Swede. Good luck, keep posting!
