    Pistol is a broad term. It was around before revolvers existed. So I think revolvers fall under the category of pistol.

      That's because there were other guns prior to revolvers which were in fact, pistols. That doesn't mean that the revolver is one as well.

    lol not everyone knows what a trigger is. My ex girlfriend was with me at a gun shop (big mistake) and I was looking at a beautiful Colt 1911. Blacked out with white trim and inlay. I was gonna take her home and name her Sheila. Well my ex pointed at the trigger guard and asked what the "squeezy pull thingy was" Me and the guy behind the counter laughed so hard at that. I laughed myself out of the store and never got Sheila. I dumped her about .45 minutes later (see what i did there?)

      @benschuster5480 8 лет назад

      A pistol must have only one barrel so it is kind of debatable weather the cylinder counts as multiple barrels. For example any Gatling style gun definitively has multiple barrels yet only one is used at any given time so therefore there it isn't clear what a revolver actually is : p

  • @Orthrus
    @Orthrus 11 лет назад

    Clips feed ammunition into magazines. Magazines feed ammo into the receiver. Pretty much, if it has a spring, then it's a magazine.
    Clips are things like the stripper and en-bloc clips that were used to load Mosin-Nagants, the M1 Garand, and so on. Stripper clips are still used today to quickly load military magazines - we used them in training to speed up loading. Afterall, we had to get 180 rounds into 6 magazines and no time to waste doing it.

    I actually learned a lot. Most of the things I knew, but I was never interested in revolvers, so I had a knowledge gap. Also, might seem like common sense, but some of the new hammer fired pistols on the market aren't really drop safe. My old room mate had a Beretta PX4 Storm dropped it and it went off in my apartment. I typically steer clear oh hammer firers now.

    Love the mention of the Marlin 25! My first and favorite firearm is a 1978 25 Glenfield that was given to me by my favorite uncle when I was 12 in 1997, I bet I've easily fired 300,000 rounds through that little rifle and, after having the bolt worked on once or twice and doing some trigger improvements it's still an absolute tack-driver. They cost nothing and are just AMAZING rimfire rifles. I don't know about the newer 25s, I assume they're great, too.

    Modern sporting rifles are bolt,pump,lever action, single shot or semi-auto, cal. include anything from .22 and up. Assault rifles are select fire(full auto three round burst) mid power rounds(5.56x45mm Nato and 7.62x39mm). Battle rifles are full power rifles(7.62x51 Nato(.308) 30-06 7.62x54R. They can be semi-auto(M1 and M1A1) or full auto capable(M-14 with selector switch installed).
    These are just some examples, and bare in mind that battle rifle can include any full power rifle.

    @powellmountainmike8853 5 лет назад +1

    Good video. I have one quibble though. The word "pistol" refers to ANY gun designed to be fired from the hand alone rather than being shouldered. If you don't believe me, look it up in the dictionary. I understand that many people today only use the term to refer to semi=automatic handguns, but this is not really specific, and could lead to confusion. The terms "revolver," and "semi-automatic," are more specific if one wishes to denote the type of loading mechanism. I always make the distinction and say "semi-automatic,", or "revolver." As a further example, what word would you use for a hand held dueling flintlock made in the 1700s? A dueling PISTOL, surely.

  • @mst3k4evur
    @mst3k4evur 11 лет назад

    It depends on your price range and the range you think you'd be shooting. You can find a good used Marlin 336 for less than $300 but you will be limited to 200 yards with standard ammo and 300 yards with Leverevolution ammo from Hornaday.
    For a hundred dollars more you can get a good Savage Stevens 200 and substantially greater range.
    After that, you have the the Ruger Hawkeye and the Remington 700. Both are simply wonderful guns but will cost you about $700 each.
    Hope that helps.

  • @avengeist

    depends on the ranges you think you'll be shooting at, if you're taking longer range shots go with a 30-06 or .270 but if you're shooting around 150yds or less you can't beat a lever action in 30-30, its short and easy to handle, has good power for deer sized game (i shoot moose with a 30-30) and is really accurate at those ranges and ammo is cheap

    the 1911 from Springfield incorporates a 38 Super firing pin and spring. making it drop safe. the 38 Super firing pin and spring have so much tension on such a light weight pin, only the hammer has the strength to launch that pin. that's thanks to the extra powerful main spring that pushes the hammer.

    Good one guys.... As a qualified firearms instructor (with pistol, rifle and shotgun) I will say that that was a very useful video to do. The amazing ignorance of some people that buy guns is amazing. You'd think that if they have enough interest to want to own a gun they'd want to know how it works and what the parts are called.... But no, many don't seem worried..... sigh... xo :-)

    A clip is a piece of metal designed to hold a limited number of cartridges for reloading the internal magazines of various rifles such as an SKS, a Mosin-Nagant, an M1903 Springfield, an M1917 Enfield, and for detachable box magazine such as those used in an M16/ M4, an AK-47, an M1 Carbine, and an M14. Now the device to load an M1 Garand is also a clip is ejected from in the case of the M1 Garand the top when the last round is fired. This clip holds eight rounds and is inserted into the Garand.

    Hey guys. Just wondering if you could do a video on firearms optics. What to consider when purchasing optics. Anatomy of scopes. Is spending more on optics than the rifle itself worth it. What's the difference between a $1000 scope and $100 scope. Thanks for taking the time in producing all your other videos

    Y'all should do a video on gunsmiths, if you had to do one aftermarket adjustment to your glock or 1911 what would it be. Maybe talk about best after market pieces and parts. Thanks guys great job with all your vids.. God bless y'all!

    Fun history fact: The term 'lock stock and barrel' comes from the old black powder days and refers to the three parts of a musket: The flintlock or matchlock, the wooden stock and of course the barrel.

    The term "clip" refers to a very simple device made from one piece of sheet steel. Clips are used to store ammo securely and load it easily into the magazine. Using the term "clip" to describe the magazine is like using the term "jerrycan" to describe your car's fuel tank.

    I have a US manual for '50s on small arms describing many foreign models and "assault rifle" was used to describe the MP43/StG44.M2 carbine (pistol replacement cartridge), BAR(full power), etc. technically would not fall into definition while M1918 Ribreyrolle(8mm bullet fitted to necked down .351 Winchester case,full auto, 35rd magazine) would easily meet definition.When "officially" designated I'll take your word, but military used term much earlier, and concept around even earlier than that.

    Check out "Gun Gripes Episode 8: Negligent Discharge". They talk about many accidental discharges. Barry also talks about the guys who shoot themselves in the butt with their 1911s. Great episode. In fact, all of them are!

    I appreciate the breakdown. I have 2 firearms (Taurus TCP and a Beretta 92A1) and I always knew the Beretta was hammer fire. But I thought the little polymer hammer in the Taurus was a striker. SO I learned something today

    Also, if the end of the hammer is cut off a revolver then the question does not come up that you didn't mean to shoot the person - you just tensed up when the hammer was cocked before hand, and the gun went off. (I prefer to cock the hammer back because the first shot at a perp is then more accurate). George

    I agree Steve, I wish Berry and Eric could get a show going, on the Outdoor channel perhaps? That being said, some of these videos go viral and get over a million views. That would help get REAL information on assault rifles out to the public.

    Don't know if it was the first striker-fired pistol, but the H&K P7 ("squeeze cocker"), first made back in the 70's, used a striker.
