Step 5: Pray that their Cavalry don't have supporting Infantry or Artillery, or enough numbers to simply harry one side of the Square at a time with Pistols.

      @PershingDragoon 6 років тому +35

      From my limited understanding, the 1870 Gasser revolver remained popular with officers in particular, as they normally wouldn't carry rifles, and therefore saw the use in having a very strong revolver that can still punch hard at somewhat longer distances. Having a heavier bullet can also be advantageous if you're fighting in windy conditions, like the Alps definitely are, though of course I doubt that was their main issue.

    Please understand that these were NOT cast out of steel. They were forged out of cast steel. I would suggest looking up Benjamin huntsman. The man who invented, or rather reinvented cast steel in 1734 or it might be 1736. This invention revolutionized the steel industry in Sheffield, mostly the edge tool industry. I don't want to go into why this was so important for so long, but if you're interested, old Ben is the place to start.

    • @Player_Review
      @Player_Review 6 років тому +11

      So, they received cast steel and forged the barrel and working bits out of that (where not mentioned being iron)? I will have to research more so I can understand the matrices and all that out of recasting steel vs. recasting steel or forging out of a solid block of existing cast steel would be. Thanks for igniting an interest in researching methods of the period, I sincerely appreciate it and will learn something undoubtedly.

      T-shirt double pack with "i would take this if a horse came for me with a knife..." about the smoke: Othias mentioned that the plume of smoke would have been less and during it's heyday everything was black powder. Additionally if there's enough wind, how long does the smoke stay where you are?
      If you are up in the mountains (where for example the WW1 italian front was,) you almost can't find any place at any time without a good amount of wind. And if you take the k.u.k. Navy: Your position is already pretty defined by the ship you are on board so not much camo or hiding possible.

      @Player_Review 6 років тому +3

      I think Mark may have uploaded some on Anvil where he's taken existing cases and cut them down for the correct headspacing etc and loads for c&rsenal, but could be incorrect as I can't remember which vid it was (if there even was one) and I think it may have just been conversation filler devoid of the actual video. Several folks on the crew may be capable of making the ammo. Anywho, I think more reference to the ammo sourcing _probably_ wouldn't hurt. They usually manage pretty great groupings with Mae's skill and the quality of the firearms/ammo, so whatever they're doing, I am confident they're doing it right. Would love to see info on ammo used on each range example for reference, including the bullet grain and gunpowder measurements. Othais seems to always reference some difference when the firearm used isn't necessarily in the same caliber of the most common gauge used by the military.

      Didn't know that, but seems to be a legitimate explanation. I know we can see evidence in Pompei that almost all turns as designed by street planners of the day were right-turns, but I'm not sure exactly why, but it did carve into the stone the signs. Makes sense either way for the screws to be designed around turns so you don't unthread them and I live in Utah, where we have wide streets in the old downtown as a result of them being designed around the idea of horse drawn carriages being capable of making u-turns upon them with wide berth.

    one Kreuzer is 1/100 Gulden or 0,102€
    its 197,47€ or 226,94 USD as of 1st of January 2019
    labour and manhours back then were worth almost worthless
    i would say that is not a good deal for mass production
    for example a new Glock costs abaut 700€ but the material and machining costs are just at ~130€ each , the rest goes into paying employees, development, repairs, new machinery/millbits , taxes, import taxes into other countrys, registering as new gun in Austria to get export permits, export permits, pressure proofing, marketing, shipping and then finally profit

    I cannot for the life of me remember where I read it, but somewhere I heard the only way people can shoot these pistols today is by cutting down a 7.62×54R cartridge to the proper length and it shouldn't need any necking up or down as the case with the bottleneck cut off is the property diameter

    Shooting a full house load of a Walker Colt is pretty much on par with this Revolver. The Walker Colt was designed to be powerful enough to bring down a horse as it was a cavalry pistol. I don’t know if that had been a secondary justification for the round.

    Thank you for this episode of the Gasser. I can see it fitting a cavalry use. A real horse pistol to kill enemy horses. Just as the Walker was made to do. Reloading was not an issue. When the revolver was empty your sword was the next choice. Oooh. I see the Comblain again! Have I mentione the Comblain before? I just may have.......

    Ferlach is still an area where highly priced hunting weapons are made. (Mostly handmade and fitted to the customers size, and preference.
    Adn to the hole in the screw and the wire: wouldn't a wire through the hole and around the gun be a safety to keep the screw from unwinding? Hearing of the recoil this would make more sense to me, as the impact of shooting gets screws loose...

    great shooting Mai, in spite ofth wobbly hand. you a real pro and I suspect you know that thing about not worrying too much about about a bit of shake...as one gets used to th break point onth trigger one can hold th break to happen th instant th sights are onth bull. brute heavy wasn't it, but I Iiked th big smile when you
    registered th group.

    Horse with a knife... New shirt idea from Othias? The comparison of the trigger to the Nagant was a good way to give we normal collectors an idea of the pull. Mae said the .44 Mag was lighter-recoil shooting... How does it compare to a S&W 500?

C&Rsenal with a revolver large enough to club a rabid moose to death with. 2019's not starting so badly after all. Thanks Othias, Mae, and the rest of the team, happy new year.

    What a coincidence... during the Mayversation part about the hammer weight, I was wondering if a Nagant comparison would come ... and sure enough seconds later... My Nagant ('34 production year) literally has a 25 pound double-action trigger pull, it broke my Lyman trigger gauge :D

  • @elloo98
    @elloo98 4 роки тому

    Something that probably already has been pointed out, but the suffix -schen in german means small or little, a puppy is a Hund(dog)schen(little) for instance, so a Gasserschen revolver (around 3:10) would litteraly mean a small/pocket Gasser revolver, which fits since the revolver was apparently quite small.
