- RMAC A22W 22 muzzleloader. How it works and a little history behind them. To see shooting it please see my other video on that. Fun little muzzleloader, actually a turret loader that uses paper caps for an ignition. Made in the early 1970's.

I live in Ontario Canada. My chances of ever seeing one of these is slim to none. Thank you for posting this video.
I have built several of them. I use round balls. Sometimes I use 22 cal. Pellets. Very little powder is used so a pound goes a long way. Percussion caps are hard to get. I think my next build will be a flintlock. Or a matchlock. My first one was a inline. Bolt action. With percussion cap nipple. Second was a little pistol percussion lock.
Thanks for the video. I just inherited one with zero info and was genuinely bewildered.
You lucky devil!
That is a really interesting little mechanism. This is the first time I’ve seen the likes of this.
That's a super cool little rifle and I hope I can find one for my collection
Thank you. They are kinda difficult to find. They made em in .36 caliber and in a full length mannlicher style stock.
that is so, so cool. An excellent squirrel gun.
Pretty cool for a modern muzzleloader
Thanks.
Really cool fun gun, thanks! I wish they still sold them. Years ahead of their time! Thanks for the look.
Thanks for the video. I just found one brand new in the box yesterday! It’s going up for sale.
Where are you listing it and for how much?
@@jmabbott888 I don’t know yet. Was thinking gun broker. If you are interested give me your email address and I’ll send you photos. Feel free to make me a offer.
It found a new home. Sold for $440 shipped NIB...I’ll miss my toy. It found a good home. The person who bought it had 3 of them.
I picked up one of these, last week! Mine is missing the nipple cover,can you point me in the rite direction to find one,
Thanks, GRIZZ
I have all my stuff packed up so I can't give ya the dimensions unfortunately. Once I get moved and unpacked I might have an extra one or I can at least get ya the measurements to turn one. Where are you located? We are moving to the Tulsa Ok area.
Silencers for black powder aren't regulated, so you could actually have that barrel threaded. Only costs about 100 dollars to do it. Then you can use any off the shelf solvent trap kit to make the actual suppressor. You may want to permanently attach it, depending on what else you have that the silencer might be able to attach to. That will avoid any constructive possession concerns. I know a lot of autistic kids don't like things on their ears, so that might make it so they don't have to have hearing protection at all.
actually.... they are, because they are a separate device intended to silence or muffle the report of a firearm... which this Kammerlader is. Just because it isn't regulated as a modern arm, doesn't mean rando stuff you attach to it isn't. The only way Silencerco could get away with the Maxim 50 was because the gun was integrally suppressed, and a muzzleloader (AKA, the suppressor wasn't really detachable).
Be very careful when reading regulations
@@wildrangeringreen There's nothing saying that muzzle loader silencers have to be attached permanently, just like airgun silencers don't. For example, there's nothing physically preventing someone from putting an airgun silencer on a 22. They typically have different thread patterns to help avoid getting unknowledgeable people into trouble, but a simple thread adapter can fix that if someone were determined to do it. I would probably do a muzzle loader silencer with 1.5x20 threads like airgun silencers to be safe, but of course that's not strictly a legal requirement.
@@Jack-ny7kn it's called the NFA, it was passed in 1934. Any device (separate object) intended or used to silence or muffle the report of a firearm is a "silencer". Just because you didn't pay the tax stamp for your "airgun" suppressor doesn't make it legal to take off your airgun and put it on a firearm.
DO NOT PUT ILLEGAL FIREARM SUPRESSORS ON A BLACKPOWDER GUN (and act like it's legal). Muzzleloaders are firearms, they just aren't regulated AS strictly at modern arms, but they are still firearms, legally speaking.
@@wildrangeringreen I'm well aware of the NFA, and I didn't say it was legal to put an airgun silencer on a real firearm. But there's no legal requirement for black powder silencers (or airgun silencers) to be permanently attached. It's not a bad idea to help unsuspecting customers stay out of trouble, but there is no law that would require it. You can manufacture a black powder silencer without a tax stamp, and it need not be permanently affixed.
That said, if you possess a real firearm that your homemade airgun or black powder silencer can thread onto, you may have issues with constructive possession. It's a gray area, but it's hypothetically possible. One scenario I can imagine is if you accidentally left the black powder silencer in a vehicle without its host, and then subsequently took a real firearm that it could thread onto and put it in the same vehicle to go hunting or to the range or something, and then got pulled over. That would obviously look like you had the intent to put the black powder silencer on the real firearm. Which is why it's a good idea for manufacturers to either use oneoff threads, or permanently attach them. Airgun silencers use a oneoff thread pattern you don't see on many firearms, and airsoft silencers are left hand, which again, you don't see very often with real guns.
So what he could do, for example, is get off the shelf solvent trap parts with a 5/8x24 thread pattern, then get a thread adapter for the 5/8x24 to 1/2x20, then have that barrel threaded for 1/2x20. He could permanently fix the thread adapter to the silencer by welding or possibly even epoxy, which would make it virtually impossible to use it with any known real firearm, making it highly unlikely that anything else in his possession could run him into constructive possession scenarios.
I hope that clarifies things.
ETA: Oh, and no, muzzleloaders are not firearms as defined under US law. Which is why it's legal to suppress one without paying the tax. Because any silencer designed for a non firearm (i.e. muzzleloader, airgun, airsoft) is not a silencer under US law. US law says that a silencer is only a regulated firearm if it's designed for a regulated firearm. Which is why muzzleloader and airgun silencers are sold online over the counter. Muzzleloaders are in the same category as airguns, bows, etc. in the sense that they're weapons, but aren't federally considered "firearms." Some states might not allow minors to purchase them and things like that, but the ATF has no jurisdiction over them or their attachments.
@@Jack-ny7kn They are "Primitive Firearms" under the law (key word is "firearm").... The Tax is for the Suppressor itself, not the host weapon. You really need to read the NFA and GCA. A silencer is any device that can be used to silence or muffle a firearm. The moment you take your airgun (not a firearm, federally) and do anything to make it compatible with a firearm (something that uses combustible powder/propellant to shoot a projectile), it is a firearm suppressor. The integral suppression thing was a way around needing the tax stamp, because it isn't a device, it's part of the gun (which is considered a "Primitive Firearm" and is exempted from most of the GCA and NFA regulations). The moment it is a separate item, the muffler becomes a "silencer" (because it is a device intended to muffle the report of a firearm (primitive or otherwise). But yes, In theory, one might be able to pin and weld the body on a barrel of a primitive gun, then construct the baffle system, and pin that in place; and it most likely would fly with the NFA. It doesn't matter if it fits anything you own, if it is a separate item capable of suppressing a firearm, and you didn't pay the tax, your goose is cooked.
If they aren't "firearms", then try to import or export a bunch of them without a Arms Import/Export License from the Dept. of State and the BATFE (plus TTB tax stamps), and see how that works out😆 They still consider gun flints to be "war materials" for heaven's sake! It's the same nonsense as "felons can own primitive guns"... no they can't, legally; it's just that the GCA prohibits the NICS checks from being used for primitive arms, so felons can get them. If a felon under disability gets caught with a primitive arm (or powder, or primers) by the feds, they're done. Quite a few states have similar laws on the books.
