The Pederson is indeed an interesting rifle to shoot. I owned one back in the 70s. Fired two boxes (40 rounds) through it. Mine worked just fine, but I can still see why the Garand won. Now here is an interesting point, why does the Garand only hold 8 rounds. It's simple, at first it held 10, but that was in the 276 cartridge. After the trials, before adoption, the decision was made to make it in 30/06 because of the millions of 06 rounds in inventory. Needless to say, the Garand didn't like the heavy ball ammo so a new 30/06 loading was created. We still had at that point a rifle cartridge and a machine gun version of the 06 cartridge in inventory.

That Blazer ammo malfunction is a sight to behold. You actually need effort to screw up a round like that. It is not like the bullet easily comes off of the cartridge.
Nah man it was some BS they put on the imported version because the country it was meant for sale in had restricted semiautomatic rifles (iirc it was England, not sure).

The second was in Norway on exercise in -20 odd degrees when it failed to pick up the blank round AND then froze the whole assembly and magazine solid because of the dampness caused by firing the first 6 shots!!

The Bond/Boberg MALF was incredible! I've only ever seen one thing similar to that, a Remington RP9 somehow turned a whole round backwards while cycling.
then you would have love my old Taurus pt92af. I couldnt stand that damn gun. All sorts of random malfunctions. Everything from failure to feed to stovepiping the round(had That particular issue with my M16a2 in the Marines as well) out of battery detonation, Magazine ejecting when the round went off. Hell i one time pulled the trigger and the hammer stayed put. And before you scream maintaining it was the problem,nope i am meticulous with cleaning weapons. and it had no more than a hundred rounds put through it prior to my purchasing it. The most spectacular failure was when it smashed the nose of the projectile flat down to a wadcutter form a black talon. never figured out what was wrong with it, just chalked it up to "early model beretta M9 knock off" Til i got a hold of the beretta and sold both. I should have kept my M1911's they were OLD but reliable.
I always pronounced Blazer as "Blay-zer," not "Blah-zer." You're the first person I've ever heard pronounce it that way! Makes it sound fancy despite it usually being the one brand that frequently jams on me no matter what gun or caliber I try.
I love to see gun parts wibbly-wobbling in slowmo. When barrels are suddenly rubber props, and yet it still works. Or doesn't! Nice compilation, very interesting.
I was told weak wrist can cause these type of malfunctions. Too much energy is absorb by the hands. I had/have that problem from trying to reduce felt recoil from my .357 mag revolver. This technique did not move into semi-auto pistols well. Loved watching these clips. Learned much. Thanks

I had a funny malfunction on my AUG during my time in Austrian military. The bullet wasn't fed properly so the it sticked out 90 degrees of the receiver and pointed directly on the instructor who stood next to me. He said: looks like the safest place is between your weapon and the target now
Fascinating, as always. Being left handed, like you, I never had any problems shooting any rifle or shotgun, bolt action, semi auto, pump or side by side or over/under. I eventually became a decent shot with most of the above, and managed a right handed bolt action in the same way as yourself. I was invited to take part in a “skill at arms” competition with the British Army, so I found a friend with a non full auto converted SA80, and got lots of practice in at Bisley Ranges. Come the day, I am assigned a British Army corporal as safety officer, a very attractive young lady. We go to the firing point to shoot a timed round of falling plate targets, one 30 round magazine only. I lay down and shouldered the rifle on my left shoulder as normal, only to be told that regulations required that I shoot off the right shoulder, no arguments. Reason being hot cases potentially going up my nose. I complied and shot abysmally as a result. My young corporal, however, shot a near perfect score later and won the entire match outright. I was very proud to watch her awarded the regimental shooting trophy.
I find it amazing that I generally think of firearms as: You pull the trigger and it goes bang. These slow-moes really bring home tom me how complex automatic weapons really are.
I was amazed at how much unburned powder came showering out with the Blazer ammunition... Worse than some of the cheap .22 rimfire I've cleaned up afterwards.

I imagine some wonder why J.C. Garand spent so much time developing the M1.
The Bond/Boberg MALF was incredible! I've only ever seen one thing similar to that, a Remington RP9 somehow turned a whole round backwards while cycling.
then you would have love my old Taurus pt92af. I couldnt stand that damn gun. All sorts of random malfunctions. Everything from failure to feed to stovepiping the round(had That particular issue with my M16a2 in the Marines as well) out of battery detonation, Magazine ejecting when the round went off. Hell i one time pulled the trigger and the hammer stayed put. And before you scream maintaining it was the problem,nope i am meticulous with cleaning weapons. and it had no more than a hundred rounds put through it prior to my purchasing it. The most spectacular failure was when it smashed the nose of the projectile flat down to a wadcutter form a black talon. never figured out what was wrong with it, just chalked it up to "early model beretta M9 knock off" Til i got a hold of the beretta and sold both. I should have kept my M1911's they were OLD but reliable.
I always pronounced Blazer as "Blay-zer," not "Blah-zer." You're the first person I've ever heard pronounce it that way! Makes it sound fancy despite it usually being the one brand that frequently jams on me no matter what gun or caliber I try.
I think the pronunciation is a comment on the quality of the ammo e.g. Blahhhh - zer
I COULD WATCH STUFF LIKE THIS ALL DAY....MORE PLEASE!!!!
I love your commentary!! Man you are the more friendly/funny/interesting gun enthusiast on the planet
"Can it successfully fire this time?" Ian repeatedly asks, knowing full well that it wouldn't be in this video if it did.
I love to see gun parts wibbly-wobbling in slowmo. When barrels are suddenly rubber props, and yet it still works.
Or doesn't! Nice compilation, very interesting.
I was told weak wrist can cause these type of malfunctions. Too much energy is absorb by the hands. I had/have that problem from trying to reduce felt recoil from my .357 mag revolver. This technique did not move into semi-auto pistols well. Loved watching these clips. Learned much. Thanks
This was nice too see you should post more of these.
sad that that 32 baby luger didnt work, i think a luger in 32 would be an awesome little range toy that would get some curious looks at the range.
Cute lil gun for sure but sadly its a dud
kazuma neetking this makes me sad.
@@karlt8233 A dud!!???

@@batmangovno This is a link to the article that appeared in American Rifleman about the .32acp "Baby Luger" prototypes of 1925/26. www.americanrifleman.org/articles/2018/11/6/whats-it-worth-krausewerk-baby-luger/
“This is the most Magnificence shot I got on camera. As you can see when the gun blow up in my face I noticed that my hands were gone
Awesome to watch these actions in slo mo! The empty brass floating threw the air is neat to see.
Excellent video bud! Slo-mo reveals so much about high-speed mechanical functions!
I'm sorry babe. This never happened to me before, I swear.
5:32 youre absolutely right. By far the most magnificent and unique malfunction i have ever seen.
I had a funny malfunction on my AUG during my time in Austrian military. The bullet wasn't fed properly so the it sticked out 90 degrees of the receiver and pointed directly on the instructor who stood next to me. He said: looks like the safest place is between your weapon and the target now
Fascinating, as always. Being left handed, like you, I never had any problems shooting any rifle or shotgun, bolt action, semi auto, pump or side by side or over/under. I eventually became a decent shot with most of the above, and managed a right handed bolt action in the same way as yourself. I was invited to take part in a “skill at arms” competition with the British Army, so I found a friend with a non full auto converted SA80, and got lots of practice in at Bisley Ranges. Come the day, I am assigned a British Army corporal as safety officer, a very attractive young lady. We go to the firing point to shoot a timed round of falling plate targets, one 30 round magazine only. I lay down and shouldered the rifle on my left shoulder as normal, only to be told that regulations required that I shoot off the right shoulder, no arguments. Reason being hot cases potentially going up my nose. I complied and shot abysmally as a result. My young corporal, however, shot a near perfect score later and won the entire match outright. I was very proud to watch her awarded the regimental shooting trophy.
I find it amazing that I generally think of firearms as: You pull the trigger and it goes bang. These slow-moes really bring home tom me how complex automatic weapons really are.
2:29 Oh my God, I can't believe my eyes! M-14, how all the details dangle! Magazin!!!! Even worse than in Stg-44 in AK-47
I was amazed at how much unburned powder came showering out with the Blazer ammunition... Worse than some of the cheap .22 rimfire I've cleaned up afterwards.
“I thought you might wanna-“ I do. Thank you.
Thanks a lot for making this. It was interesting to be able to see in good detail and with good descriptions just what can go wrong with a gun.
The slow motion is priceless. I hope that you are paid well, even though your living the dream.
Gun Jesus shows us the followers who have gone astray.
Amen
I'm pretty sure most of these were caused by the gas system or ejectors, not the followers. ;)

Alternate title: Reasons why each of these weapons are forgotten
Manufacturer, "don't use this one specific kind of ammo."
Ian, "I'm about to end this mans career."
Sadly, this reminded me that Bond Arms did end his career not long ago, at least he commented on Ian's video.
I find the slowly spinning cases very calming and soothing. :-) very nice to watch.
You're showing up in my recommendations again, it's so refreshing!
As said in another comment oddly satisfying. Would love to see another video like this.
The Lugers were a flashback to my dad and I becoming increasingly angrier with one my dad inherited. Good times, what a pos that gun turned out to be
Fine collections of oopsies-woopsies.
I just found this one, MORE PLEASE! Just mesmerizing to watch.
This makes me appreciate all the ones that do work
No one:
UA-cam: you need to watch older weapons misfire in slow motion.
Me: *sigh* FINE
As an engineer, I found this video interesting, thanks for the upload.

Don't call me out like this.
This video is weirdly cathartic. I just feel relaxed watching this.
I doubt anyone will ever see a malfunction like the bond arms bullpup ever again that was spectacular

Excellent video. All guns should be filmed slo mo so we can see the intricate details of even when they are operating correctly. Thanks again
Interesting side comment about the Bond Arms pistol where the cartridge case and the bullet would separate, throwing powder everywhere and jamming the gun. It just so happens that this was a common issue with the British 2 pounder Pom Pom antiaircraft gun used in WWII. Did the same exact thing on occasion. I wonder if they used Blazer ammunition.
