The advent of the percussion era and developments in gun carriages brings about the design of a new short handy musketoon for French artillery crews. Issued from 1829 onwards, initially as a smoothbore flintlock, the musketoon evolves through the final stages of muzzleloading technology.
LEGAL NOTE: Shooting done in December 2020, prior to 50m range closure.

We're often asked about getting firearms out of the US and into Switzerland, or out of Switzerland and into the US. Les, of Polaris Worldwide Logistics http://www.polaris-logistics.com/ actually organised arranging a couple of rifles in the US that Bloke wanted, but couldn't get on this side of the pond. Between him and Matt of M426 (no link, sorry, usual YT reasons, Google is your friend and all that), the process was super easy. So if you have needs in this direction, please talk to these two fine gentlemen!

So, it turns out that the M1917 Enfield .30-06 magazine is cartridge overall length (COL) sensitive, and can jam up good and proper if the rounds are too short.

Bloke, appropriately attired, acquires some old bulleted blanks in 7.5x55 GP11 calibre. In the absence of any ballistic gelatin gummy bears, he sees what they do against cardboard.
How dangerous is a little soft wood bullet in a blank anyway? A slack handful of them through a Schmidt-Rubin K11 tells all.
