Yeah, it was an odd one. I launched through Patreon then that took me to YouTube and a few seconds later things got really dark. Weird. Touched the screen and it would brighten up then it fell off again. Well, I let you know, there was no fault with your production and nobody died so I guess we can move on. Love you all

2024-03-18 01:50:20 +0000 UTCNow I REALLY want to see the animations. Great show. Lots of excellent info on the SKS. I wonโt be able to look at my 1951 Tula-made SKS without a little more reverence and pride.

2024-03-16 03:57:20 +0000 UTCDelayed animation? How would the South Park kids put it? "OH MY GOD! They broke Bruno! YOU BASTARDS!!" XD
Erik
2024-03-16 03:26:05 +0000 UTCGreat episode! Looking forward to the animations in the public release. Interesting, never noticed the safety difference: my 1949 Tula doesn't have but the 1954 Izhevsk has the spring loaded safety. No YH in circle training mark on the Izhevsk one either.

2024-03-15 05:06:39 +0000 UTCNice to know the Russkies actually made a proper trigger for their skS's; the "stir your finger in a coffee can full of random nuts & bolts" that is the trigger pull on my Chinese Model 56 version is enough to make the accuracy only slightly better than a mid-90s vintage Ruger Mini-30 [which my friend paid $$ for instead of a cheap skS because it had proper magazines and then came to regret when my skS could consistently outshoot his Mini-30! ๐]

2024-03-14 22:18:07 +0000 UTCItโs finally happening!!!!! Yay!!!!!
Andrew Brown
2024-03-14 21:11:38 +0000 UTCThe discussion about stripper clips versus magazines is interesting. Keep in mind that a lot of those 7.62 NATO rifles (m-14, FAL) have stripper clip loading as an option. So even the western world had the idea that not having magazines in the supply line could be an issue.
Troy Janda
2024-03-14 17:24:16 +0000 UTCNever thought I'd see the day where you guys cover an SKS,,YESSSSSS! awesome outstanding job once again everybody!

2024-03-14 01:25:51 +0000 UTCThat cleaning kit is awesome. More rifles should have multi-use kits like this, IMO.
Glenn Miller
2024-03-13 17:49:44 +0000 UTCIn the early 1990s, as various bans made AK platform weapons less available in some American states, gun shows and magazines were offering some "bolt on" magazines for the SKS. Most of these were not detachable, they just had the look of a regular AK mag.

2024-03-13 04:52:52 +0000 UTCAt 29:30 Othias says "handgun", should be "handguard".

2024-03-13 04:01:07 +0000 UTCIโm aware. Iโve been a fan since episode 5
Luke Telling
2024-03-13 00:48:03 +0000 UTCThe magazine question: On that topic, Russia had huge issues going into WW2 with magazine production. It was the biggest bottleneck for the PPSH, & IIRC the SVT was supposed to be issued multiple mags but relied on clips due to production issues. Edit to add: Probably also why AK mags are so overbuilt.
Robert L. Mahurin
2024-03-13 00:39:49 +0000 UTCDunno if the issue is on my end, but the resolution of the pro/con sections (the ones with red and green text) seem either out of focus or causing an odd resolution shift.

2024-03-12 21:03:02 +0000 UTCif russians would have sks in the 1st.. they would have stoped again around belfast again. just kidding. though I wouldn't want to go against sks's with a boltgun.
Guido Schriewer
2024-03-12 20:37:22 +0000 UTCI am facinated of fixed/thought fixed even if issued more mags, stipper/enbloc fed semis. garand, sks, svt, mas49s, vz52, ag42/hakim/rasheed, g43, safn and johnson. for it was SUCH a advanced yet short lived era.

2024-03-12 20:11:37 +0000 UTCchincom sks rigs with aweful but cool wooden knobs are SO comfy to wear, too! still dirtcheap.

Erik Schmitz
2024-03-12 19:04:47 +0000 UTCThe what? .... This episode has the potential to surprise even the Spanish Inquisition.
Markus B.
2024-03-12 19:00:04 +0000 UTCNot the first semi auto, or full auto, that they've done an episode on.

2024-03-12 18:57:37 +0000 UTCI hope that's sarcasm. They aren't doing episodes only on WW1 arms.
CountryRock _2001
2024-03-12 18:56:51 +0000 UTCWOW! I have a 54 russian. love the darn thing. highly underrated rifle IMO. biggest flaw is that rear sight. fronts hood works great as a russianREDDOT. put hood on target pull that trigger... . very versatile handy capable carbine. love the caliber and sks is just a joy to shoot. man I'd love do ipsc nationals with mine but... can't see those damn plates out there good enough. short stages would be a blast though.
Guido Schriewer
2024-03-12 18:41:19 +0000 UTCReally enjoyed the episode. Just one observation which might be down to my Android phone. After launching through Patreon the brightness fell away really badly and had to keep renewing by tapping the screen. Otherwise, thank you as always
Douglas Killock
2024-03-12 17:46:34 +0000 UTCIt's that time of year!
Jason
2024-03-12 17:10:44 +0000 UTCi was not expecting that!!! Not complaining at all though....

2024-03-12 15:42:07 +0000 UTCBrilliant episode. Ta muchly Bruno, beer's in the fridge. Look forward to seeing how this beastie works
Minion
2024-03-12 12:36:37 +0000 UTCYou may want to add a "*Dummy rounds" at the roughly 29min mark where you load the magazine and chamber a round (by now most of us take for granite that you never have live rounds floating around in the gun room segments but probably a good idea for the wide release).
Bill Morgan
2024-03-12 12:19:55 +0000 UTCAfter so many years, I'm not sure I'm mentally ready to make the jump to modern arms! Either way, I'm looking forward to a great episode!

2024-03-12 11:38:05 +0000 UTCThis whole video is nothing but a cruel effort by Othias to keep teasing that Pieper M1893 Revolver Carbine behind him
