I just purchased a NDS A1 Upper Receiver from Brownells...they cost $149, but you need the parts for the rear sight. I already have all the parts....All I have to do is strip the upper of the anodizing. Then I'll ship both receivers (lowe/upper) to have them Dry Film lubed on the outside. Which give the receivers that medium gray color. Once that's done, just need to assemble. I had to purchase all the parts here and there, when they became available. Super excited, I'll have a 100%, A-1 clone.
I love my MSAR E-4, I got lucky with a one that actually work. I changed the bolt so I can shoot steel case or brass. The original bolt has issues shooting steel case. The model displayed with the forward bolt assist is a earlier model than mine. Mine doesn't have it, the earlier models have issues, ranging from the 1.5x optic loosing zero from shooting because of the cheap China glass in the optic to the magazines which are proprietary having feeding issues. My E-4 accepts proprietary and STANAG magazines. Since last year I suppressed it, I won't be shooting it a lot suppressed because parts are scarce. I had zero issues though. They aren't considered a collective item just yet, but that is slowly changing. If you have the early rare commemorative edition that comes with a pelican case, OD green MSAR rifle(these have zero issues) with straps and a microtech knife that were a limited addition you can fetch between $2500 to $3000 depending if everything is in tact. Tim from Military Arms Channel has this limited edition version. Ratworx has a limited amount of parts and G-u-n-b-r-o-k-e-r as well(commie RUclips might have a issue if I didn't hyphenate that word). It's pretty much hit or miss with this rifle.
I know you're busy with lots of things but I wanted to thank you all for all of your videos and also mention I like this style video over the unboxing style you also make. But that's just one person's opinion.
That sphinx sdp looks like a fancy ass all metal p07 😂. I assumed it was a p07 from the thumbnail wow. I wonder if those back straps can be forced onto my p07 rubber grip much better than the weak stippling now
Alright!! You're back! There is not another gun channel I like better than this one, you always teach this old dog some new tricks. Thanks for posting!!
I wouldn't want to use a Webely shaved down .45 apc, it feels sacrilegious, as well as dangerous. I would buy one, but go on a hunt soon after for an original .455 cylinder.
I’d love to jump into 762x39 but geez Tula 762x39 ammo is about the same price as brass PMC 556 xtac. Maybe I should’ve jumped in the x39 lake when it was $4.50/box. I just can’t see paying for Tula x39 that’s only a couple dollars a box cheaper than 556 77gr OTM. Or about the same price as PMC 55gr xtac. I highly covet that first M85NP from y’all. That’s about as far as I’ll dip my toes into the AK platform until AAC makes affordable 762x39.
Chris, greetings from the UK and welcome back. Thanks for a great lecture on the histories behind all those firearms. I think Ruger did a great job reviving the single action revolver post-WW2. I used to be a able to borrow and shoot the dual cartridge Blackhawk in .357 and 9x19 mm. For a time, I used a Colt New Frontier .22LR for target shooting, i suspect Colt made those as a result of the success of Ruger's single action revolvers. I also suspect that the Super Blackhawk should be given much of the credit for the success of .44 Magnum as a sporting cartridge, but I'll be interested to hear other views on that. It's always great to see any Webley on your channel. Modifying them to fire .45 ACP and Auto Rim is a pragmatic choice. The original British .455 rounds are less powerful cartridges though, hence I think the safest option is to use nice gentle handloads. I read somewhere that conversions often involved shaving the cylinder and reaming out the chambers to about 0.454", because .455 rounds originally had hollow based lead bullets (not unlike .38 Special HBWC ones) designed to expand and fill the bore, after firing through chambers that tapered down to about .451". Also, I think the first British cartridge service revolver was the .450 Adams, as adopted by the Royal Navy. Officers were expected to provide their own sidearms, i.e. a sword and a handgun, so the famous Wilkinson Sword company also sold a lot of Webley revolvers under the "Webley Wilkinson" brand. The WW2 .38/200 Webley Mark IV revolvers were preceeded by three previous marks of break open .38 revolver. Of those, the Mark III was available during WW1 and was carried then by at least one British Army officer, according to our Imperial War Museum.
love your history focused videos on firearms its pretty awesome keep up the good work i will be back for alot more content... would love a video about tanfoglio, i had the tanfoglio witness combat 9mm full size steel frame and i gotta say it was the perfect gun... was a mix between a 1911 and cz75 and was amazing... was my first handgun and i learned to completely disassemble from the slide to the last pin and even the trigger group
Unboxing is fun..but i prefer this format. Good job
So good to see the return of Weekly Used Gun Reviews.
Thanks -Mark- Chris... this was a banger.
Everybody loves Mark at Chrisman TV.

Welcome back!!!
After 50 years, my Single Six is still one of my favorites.
YAY! I've been missing these.
Man I missed this

That sphinx is a cool one
Good to see you back..
1 thing that I have noticed is that you have spent a lot of time in researching these firearms.
I do appreciate that, Thank You Sir
It has Returned!!!
Those M&M guns are cool the look like an AK and Bren got together for a funky night and had a kick ass baby!

Thank you!
Great as always
I know you're busy with lots of things but I wanted to thank you all for all of your videos and also mention I like this style video over the unboxing style you also make. But that's just one person's opinion.
The Ruger Bearcat emulates more the Remington revolvers of the late 1800's by having the one-piece rather than the three-piece frame.
Excellent video. Your historical knowledge is top notch.
Excellent selection for your "baby.....I'm back 'show.
Good to see you back, Chris!!!
The Ruger Bearcat without fluting on the cylinder looks like a Magnum Research BFR.
WOW !!!! So glad to see this back!
Great to see the business going strong.
Glad your back in the saddle again !!!! Maybe guest appearance by Randy?? Hehe
I've been looking at that Sphinx on the site, I'm glad you had it on today

That sphinx sdp looks like a fancy ass all metal p07 😂. I assumed it was a p07 from the thumbnail wow. I wonder if those back straps can be forced onto my p07 rubber grip much better than the weak stippling now
Glad the gun reviews are back!

Alright!! You're back! There is not another gun channel I like better than this one, you always teach this old dog some new tricks. Thanks for posting!!
Single Six over 45 years now

I might need to put in some overtime for that AUG clone 😅
If you get one that works 1k is a steal.
Not sure how I came across your channel quite a while ago but I really enjoy them and your knowledge is quite impressive throughout all kinds of guns.

I currently have a rifle on layaway that I’m really excited about
Savage model 99EG
Chambered in 300 savage
Manufactured in 1952
M+M is just a poor mans Sig 556r ... That works without spending double for a beta test gun ..thanks Sig all 3 I bought sucked
Wish you could still get a 22 revolver with 2 cylinders for $69!
and a brick of 500 22 LR rounds for $10.
Do you think if that bear cat catalog story is true someone got fired over that? Maybe that’s a way to prove out the story,
1000$ bucks or spend 400 you can maybe get a CZ01 or 07
Randy, where are you?
love your history focused videos on firearms its pretty awesome keep up the good work i will be back for alot more content... would love a video about tanfoglio, i had the tanfoglio witness combat 9mm full size steel frame and i gotta say it was the perfect gun... was a mix between a 1911 and cz75 and was amazing... was my first handgun and i learned to completely disassemble from the slide to the last pin and even the trigger group
Booo, where is Randy?
😂
Someone doesn't understand how WUGR works or anything about it's history over the last 96 episodes.
Please The frequent use of the verbal filler "actually" becomes a distraction once you start to hear it.
