True, perhaps most of all.

2020-09-30 05:39:45 +0000 UTCTurn downs USUALLY only require some relief in the stock, if any. Like Rick said. However, there are exceptions I'm sure, like straight pulls.

2020-09-29 18:29:40 +0000 UTCAs much as I love SAoWW1, I hate to say that *three episodes* on *a single rifle* from a minor power that *didn't fight in the war* got really boring.

2020-09-29 16:15:28 +0000 UTCNo changes to the action, but the stock may need a channel cut into it to allow the bolt handle to rotate down fully.
2020-09-29 16:00:01 +0000 UTCI have what I hope is not a totally stupid question. Often, there is a long discussion about the use of turned down bolts vs straight bolts. But, other than that obvious difference, are there any other unique changes to the action necessary to accommodate the turned down bolt? Ultimately: why can't a soldier simply remove the straight bolt and use a turned down bolt instead, and vice versa?

2020-09-29 15:11:44 +0000 UTCGreat history! Supposedly inferior local forces kicking some lesser armed colonizer butt with 1873 Winchesters reminds me of The battle of the greasy grass and Inrange videos on the subject here in the States

2020-09-29 15:02:14 +0000 UTCGlad to see that the YT call to action segment is a separate "platform specific segment" that can be adjusted as needed thus not distorting a Video Historian on Youtube into a Youtube Historian.

2020-09-29 13:07:28 +0000 UTCNot sure I'd want to try the .303 version of these suckers. I suspect they'd kick like a Georgia mule!

2020-09-29 12:49:32 +0000 UTCI meant a Colt 1911 but technically you are right haha good one😂
Evan Williamson
2020-09-29 10:52:22 +0000 UTCBut there is a 1911 episode! #128 IIRC. You're welcome 😜

2020-09-29 10:01:01 +0000 UTCI'm still surprised there's no 1911 episode of course I want to see a breech loading vickers mk 2 rocket gun but I doubt they will put their hands on one or be able to shoot it
