Bloke goes training at his (current) local range, with his trusty K31 to give some of an idea about what Swiss shooting can be like. When it's done out in a field instead of in the Schützenhaus... There is an embedded link to skip forward through the shooting part (skip to about 7:20) for those that find it deathly dull (which I can understand, MAC would have fired 18 magazines in that time :) ). Please excuse the couple of shonky edits... I'm not going to recompile and re-upload just for them :) Dirt Road Traveler by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution licence (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Artist: http://audionautix.com/ Tennessee Hayride by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution licence (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/) Artist: http://audionautix.com/ ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1NUU_j86tr8

A very brief look at an unconverted German Gewehr 88 (which nevertheless had had the chamber re-cut for the spitzer S-Patrone), which had not been converted to an 88/05 and nevertheless was close enough to the front lines in WW1 to be captured by the Canadian Expeditionary Force ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXR9j8U9d8A

BotR vogue sur la récente vague d’enthousiasme au sujet du Manurhin MR73, enfin presque. Au lieu de parler des nouveaux modèles de production maintenant distribués par Beretta, Chap va présenter son modèle MR73 4" des années 80 et révéler la caractéristique la plus importante de son mécanisme, la clé de l'excellente détente double action dont tout le monde parle. En outre, nous examinerons de plus près le barillet de 9 mm qui était proposé comme accessoire à l'époque et nous verrons quelles sont les performances lorsque l'on change de barillet à 25 et 50 mètres.

The Bloke has recently unearthed some important Historical Documents relating to the SA80 adoption. In 1986, the cast of the BBC's Grange Hill soap opera for kids produced a hit single as part of a campaign to un-adopt the SA80 and adopt the M16 or FN FNC in its place. The campaign failed for unfortunate reasons. This short video explains all. (Yeah, the animation's a bit bonk. But the preview in the editor is aligned perfectly, then the final rendered version is off. So I'm flying kinda blind, frame by frame...)
