Combat in sandy places such as Algeria highlighted that tight tolerancing of the conventional MAT49 32rnd magazine and mag well could cause jamming and feeding issues. The was resolved with the issue of a (19)58 sand magazine with a number of features to render it and the SMG far less sensitive to the ingress of sand and grit. The redesign did however come at a price since capacity was reduced from 32 to 20rnds.
The Chap surprised the bloke by pulling a 1920s Ortgies from his pocket. The interesting thing about this pistol is the grip safety, which is really a grip-actuated manual safety, and stays disengaged once given a good squeeze.
Unfortunately, despite the great pointability of the piece, the accuracy was disappointing (though adequate), largely due to a horrrific trigger.

Chap does a show and tell covering the MAS45, a nice simple .22 universal traininer used by the French armed forces for 35+ years. Aside from the unique rear sight it shares many similarities to Mauser .22 rifles of the 1930s and 40s, including the KKW, and from it's interesting history it's clear to see why.

The Bloke and The Chap try out an awesome air cartridge home training system from http://www.easy-munition.com/ Turn your basement, living room or loft into a range, without noise issues!
These air cartridges take plastic bullets, and are charged with air from a pump or a compressor. Then, they work in your unmodified pistol, revolver, or rifle, like ordinary ammunition. Those in the UK might remember the Brocock system, which is similar.
The Chap demonstrates .44 Special in an Uberti S&W Russian Model, and 9mm in an H&K P7. The Bloke demonstrates 7.5x55mm GP11 in an 1893 cavalry carbine, a K31 and a Stgw 57.

À l'époque des premiers fusils réglementaires monocoup à cartouches métalliques, les fusils à verrou avait-ils un réel avantage par rapport aux autres systemes de verrouillage? Le Chap s'attaque à cette question en faisant une "minute folle", modifiée pour être fidèle aux doctrines de tir des 1870s, avec un fusil Gras mle1874 et un Comblain mle1870.

With thanks to Kevin & SBAM Shooting, a demo about felt recoil, with an L1A1 SLR (British FAL)! And an attempted demo about primary extraction that failed due to having nice shiny quality brass. We'll do it again with some grotty surplus or steel-cased much to show it properly on another occasion!

Yes, so the big aperture bit of this footage has been used in an earlier Extra Vid. But what are these Extra Vids for, if not for re-cycling footage to illustrate specific points? In this case, that the Lee-Enfield No.4 big aperture isn't less accurate than the small aperture to any meaningful degree. If you understand this and concentrate!
