The mad minute did not really exist. In the Infantry manual of 1908 the rapid fire exercise was 15 rounds in a minute, prone, with four rounds loaded, the target being at 300 yards. It was a fairly basic qualifying shoot for the rifle badge. Some of the instructors however took it to the extreme, specifically to show nervous recruits WHAT the rifle could do if it was pushed to the limits by someone who knew how to operate it in their sleep..... The Mad Minute was competitions between Musketry INSTRUCTORS, not the regular British Infantry. For them rapid fire was 15 rounds a minute. To be fair in 1914 most of the Infantry and Cavalry could manage more than that, while the mad minute was not doctrine it *did* catch the imaginations of both the troops and the media. So most of the regular British Infantry and Cavalry of 1914 (all being professional soldiers, not conscripts) were capable of something between 20 and 25 aimed rounds per minute at a standard target at three hundred yards. You might be wondering about the Cavalry comment up there. Well if so, that's easy, you see I have copies of both the British Infantry and Cavalry Training Manuals of 1908. You know something odd about them? The Cavalry training manual is the infantry training manual with an extra hundred or so pages of horsey stuff tacked on the end. Literally. The British Cavalry from 1908 onwards were trained as MOUNTED INFANTRY. Each Cavalry Battalion even had two machineguns, which was two more machineguns than anyone ELSES cavalry had at the time, and the same number of machineguns as a British or German Infantry Battalion had, which had twice the number o men! Apologies for the rant, it was however, cathartic, I feel much better now. Sorry but Othias and many people on this channel have bashed the British all too often for 'not having enough Machineguns' without EVER looking at the actual organisation of the British Battalions, or the number of them we HAD. Did the Germans have 4000 machineguns compared to only 400 in the British Army in 1914? Yes, but that's because the German Army was in the region of four MILLION men, and the British Army numbered maybe around 300,000..... THATS why the British had so few MG's, not because they thought they were useless, but because our Army was ten percent the size of the Continental powers!
As an American, I'm impressed with them, too! I've always loved the Lee-Enfields. Can you guys in Britain own these? Serious question, I just plain don't know. Laws are so different from country to country.
@@BeyondLimits3D yes you can. UK gun laws are a pretty strict. All handguns are no no with a few very limited exceptions. Shotguns are more common as the police licensing team have to give reasons why you can't have one (mental health, criminality, location etc) and rifles are the kinda the opposite in that you have to prove to the police that you 'need' one through being part of a shooting club, deer stalker, land owner, farmer etc. Calibre is largely irrelevant as I know someone with a Barratt .50 which is legally owned but his options where to shoot it are limited to certain ranges. So in short it's perfectly legal to own a Lee Enfield but there's hoops to jump through.
I love British firearms, my first rifle was a sporterized No. 4 I picked up for $50 when I was in college in the early 00s. Given my lack of funds as a starving college kid that rifle was my hunting weapon and home defense rifle. Later in life I decided to collect as many British firearms as I could. I have just about every small arm issued to the British military from the Snyder to the Enfield No. 5...My absolute favorite is my Martini Henry, it's just so much fun to shoot, the pricetag of ammunition not withstanding..Do British shooters fixate on American designs like we Americans do British weapons?
Lot's and lots of folks with shooting and vintage gun videos but these are my favorite ones. Simple. To the point. Fun. Educational and Mae always looks like she is really enjoying herself. Always some great guns. The 303 has always been a favorite of mine and makes a great deer rifle. Ours has been with us 50 plus years and the entire family has used it! It's a constant battle of who gets it when I'm gone!!!
I've never heard it called "Mark One Triple Star". It's been "Mark One Three Star" from just about every documentary, gun owner, book, and aficionado I've encountered. I guess you do learn something new everyday.
In fairness, I have known of British soldiers who would say "Mark One, Star, Star, Star." After all, each star was put there for a purpose, so bloody give them their due respect! 😜
No1 Mk3*…..the star just represents the simplified version of the Mk 3 without the magazine cut-off(as large scale manufactured by the Australians at Lithgow)….not cryptic at all!….simples 🤷♂️😉
@@tommyfred6180 only ever heard of it as the “Number one mark three “ ie No-1 Mark 3….and I’m British and fired it often!🤷♂️( as opposed to the No-4 Mk 1 which eventually replaced it….never heard that called a “Number 4 one star?!!!🤣🙈
@@georgewashington3393 We had both when I was growing up too. The first rifle I ever shot bigger than a .22 was an old Army issue Lee-Enfield .303. I was maybe 8 years old. The Win 30-30 is still my favourite though. I have one that was passed down to me and I still use for black-tail deer on Vancouver Island. It's been my close companion since I was about 12 years old.
Wonderful as always .Though I know the folks at C&Rsenal will surprise us still getting to the point all that's left is the M1911 which saw tons of use in the Great War. Its so modern but so not as well.
Have original 7.7 Arisaka with mum And custom built by my late father. Custom stock,cut recrownd barrel, gold dot front,Williams peep rear. That's the one WWII Rifle I'd love to own. RIP CAPTAIN R.L KIRSCHNER. ❤🙏😪
J'ai un smle de 104 ans , je lui donne du 150 du 174 ou 180 gr , il accepte tout ce brave soldat et en 180 il traverse 8 mm d' acier à 200 m . C'est une bête de précision et de puissance merci messieurs les Anglais d'avoir inventé ce chef d'œuvre 😍😍😍
Je ne peux qu'approuver... j'en ai eu un qui avait 120 ans, transformé en 22 LR à l'époque pour l'entraînement. A l'époque, quand je l'utilisais au stand, je voyais souvent des sourires en coin ou de l'intérêt pour cette "antiquité"... mais quand les autres tireurs ont vu les résultats à 25 mètres, ça rigolait beaucoup moins ! Bien réglé et bien utilisé, il était d'une précision diabolique. Pour moi, le SMLE est peut-être le meilleur fusil à répétition jamais fait (quoique j'adore aussi le MAS 36, une merveille d'ingénierie sous-estimée), et je le préfère de loin au Mauser 98, à la culasse trop compliquée et aux organes de visée assez médiocres (ceux qui en doutent, comparez avec ceux d'un Lee Enfield première génération ou un Springfield, et vous verrez...)
I have one of these from Australia after they were sent to the USA after The Government of Australian banned them because of 1 mass shooting. ONE MASS SHOOTING ! ! ! I am sorry for the Aussies that lost there firearms because of government tyranny. SI SEMPER TYRANNIS. Mine is in excellent condition ans is a very good shooter. After several years of finding zero.303 Brit. ammo in the American Marketplace, I was finally able to order some yesterday along with 7.65 Argentine Rifle ammo. I can now shoot all of my surplus rifles with fresh ammo. Keep up the good work Mae.
@@Gunsbeerfreedom87 Is it? OK. Let me ask you a little question. Can you retain sight picture while working the Bolt of a Mauser style rifle? I already know the answer to that, its no, you cannot, not at that time. The bot throw was long, and if you kept your eyes on the sight as you manipulated the bolt you would give yourself a black eye. Guess what, the Lee Enfield action has a SHORT bolt throw length, which means you CAN in fact maintain sight picture as you work the bolt, which means either faster follow on shots if required, or faster time on target to the next guy you are going to shoot at. Because you are not giving yourself a black eye every time you try to keep a cheek weld and work the bolt..... Yes, you can work a Lee Enfield's bolt and maintain cheek and shoulder weld, something Mae has never ever managed to demonstrate, and is one of the least understood advantages of the system. Here is a little secret about the Mad Minute, it ONLY works with the Lee Enfield Action, you CANNOT replicate it on a Mauser action. You know why? Yes, that long bolt throw, means you have to reaquire your target EVERY TIME YOU WORK THE BOLT. That's a couple of seconds. The guy with the Lee Enfield shooting back at you NEVER LOST his sight picture..... Thats fine for a hunting rifle, but in war, give me a Lee Enfield ANY time.....
How can you tell that rifle accepts the MKVII ammo? I'm curious as I have several. I always had looked for HV stamp in front of the rear sight. I guess the lands and grooves might be a giveaway.
I hate how the rifles have the stars in the name... to me the name always looks like "Lee-Enfield Mk1 HOWEVER-". But really love how the lee enfields look! And the 10 round magazine is a big bonus
The stars were to determine between equipment that had been modified from standard as adopted, but had not yet been considered modified enough to be given a new MK designation. Yes, its damned confusing. I have seen half a dozen SMLE No 1 MK III ***'s that were all different. Every, Single. One. All had different modifications! And this was six of them, owned by six guys at the same club, all laid out on a table in front of us. End every, single, one of them was different! Essentially it boils down to the fact that dozens of different companies manufactured the rifles, and they all ran out of particular old stock at different rates. Fortunately by WWII we had gotten rid of the star system! Probably the best for everyone's sanity!
Heh, might I suggest a friendly amendment? Do an alternate cut, the Mad Minute with Mae where the same info is delivered, but all 10 rounds get fired.... :P
My Dad was issued one of these and five rounds of ammunition during a Dock Strike. Then sent to guard a gate against several hundred angry strikers who berated him for several hours. If there was a riot he planned to fire all five rounds into the crowd. Fortunately everyone remained relatively calm and the strike ended a few weeks later. If you are going to issue Rifles you need guys like my Dad otherwise its just a piece of furniture.
Precioso!!!. Bendita España 🇪🇸 de mis entretelas que NO se puede hacer nada de lo que se puede ver en el vídeo (si no se es cazador) y no se puede disparar fuera de una galería de tiro. VIVAN LAS LIBERTADES!!!!!🤬🤬🤬🤬🧐
The Germans built the Mauser for hunting. The Americans built the Springfield for target shooting and the British built the Lee-Enfield for killing their enemies.
They are a good rifle , having fired on in military training there is one thing you did that is taboo. When closing the breach you do not use the palm of your hand as this can cause your hand to slip which will not chamber the round properly and can cause nasty bruising on the inside of your wrist. This is a very bad thing from a military point of view because you may only have that one chance to chamber the round and fire it.
Hej I have shot the lee enfield 303 for many years and did you know that in ww1 and ww11 the soldiers never loaded 10 rounds into the magazine from the stripper clip. 1 It tended to jam, 2 the clip inside the magazine would stretch causing more jams. Just a bit of info next time you want to load 10 rounds.
Seems perfectly reasonable to me. Then again I took a not so pretty pile of No.4 MK1* parts and made a functional unit out of them. The parts included an ATI stock. The rear sight was from a No5. So I acquired a steel No drill scope mount and it currently has a TRS-25 Red Dot. I may change that out to something else, but for now it’s fine.
Do NOT palm the bolt! My grandfather, who was a musketry instructor in WW1 would be turning in his grave! (Yes, the British Army still called it ‘musketry’ in WW1).
As one old soldier said to me once, she likes a bit of rough does smelly, she aint your wife lad, she is your mistress, work that bolt like you mean it, and giv er what she wants!
Someone, please teach the nice lady, how to grab a rifle.?? The positioning of her right hand, is tottally wrong.!!! She's "holding" the frigging rifle, instead of "grabbing" it .!!!
We need a follow up to this where Mae does the Mad Minute, the obvious title being, of course, "Mad Minute of Mae"!

Always love Mae’s smile every time she shoots anything.

Another great minute of Mae, love these.
Always such a joy! This is one of my favorite minutes of the week.
Coincidentally, "short, dense and slightly muzzle-heavy" also describes one of my dogs.

I think the Boers probably had something to do with it…

Don't palm the bolt. Hold it between thumb and forefinger; it was designed to make rapid fire possible - as long as you work the bolt properly.
An early variant of the famous British bolt action rifle of WW1 and boy, is it smelly!
