So far (and I look at TH-cam far too much) the best explanation and depiction of a modern cartridge I've seen presented. Well done. Altogether a very good presentation. Quite informing and not too deep in 'jargon'.
Seriously good! I’m an American and this Brit has a better knowledge of firearms than the gun owners (including myself)! It’s a true gem in the haystack!
As some of you eagle eyed viewers may have noticed some of the ammunition on screen isn’t quite what it seems. As you should be able to tell from my voice, I’m English, and whilst firearms are far from banned, they are stringently controlled, and I don’t have a firearms licence. This means that I can’t legally possess ammunition, so I’ve had to do a little fakery. The Centrefire cartridges that you see on screen are real in a sense, except, they’ve been fired. They are just a brass case, and a bullet, they have no propellant, and the primer has been fired. The musket ammunition is entirely faked. The musket ball is a lead slingshot ball, the cloth patch is just a piece of cloth that I’ve cut up, and the “black powder” is actually the waste products from a wood burning stove. In non-covid times I probably would have been able to film more of the real deal, but I don’t feel it detracts from the video.
Your recreation is pretty good. It get's the idea across. Just about every close up shot of food in commercials is fake but they get the idea across. So you're in good company.
Nitrocellulose is easier if you use the flash paper method. Potassium nitrate + Sulphuric Acid + cotton Basically black powder, but a little cleaner and everything besides the cotton can be harvested from your toilet
The fact that they were literally staring the center fire cartridge in the face with the one rifle, breach loading with a percussion cap, I mean just find a way to stick it on the back of the round of ammo that you already put in the back of the gun.
You really did your research 🧐 I’m rather impressed I own several firearms modern and historical and I am in college classes for the science and technology of firearms but this is very accurate and correct I couldn’t have done a better job myself great examples and animations! If you ever visit America you should visit me I’d love for you to meet the rest of my class and show your video to them!
Honestly I’m kinda glad we don’t have Time Machines bc I’m 100% certain that someone would grab a g17 with a switch and make some major changes in our time line 😂😂😂
I dissagree blackpowder needs a longer barrel for its slower burn and gas pressure rate. You simply use less and it fixes the issue or pistols and my 28 inch barrel jaeger would not work. Factor rifling in as this greatly helps pressure to rise.
Dumbest way to load a magazine- remove rounds from stripper clip and place into magazine 👌 stripper clips are designed to strip into magazines….. bloody germans being uncommonly inefficient lol

Owe that great feeling when you find a Gem of a small of a small channel.
Cheers!
Amazing 🤩

I agree with you!
This needs more views. I am glad I was searching for “invention of modern bullet”, so I found this. Great video!
Thank you!
I agree and found the video in the same way.
We really are curious eh. I came from history of firearms to cartridges and bullets

I'm glad you think so.
Lucky to found this channel early.
That's much appreciated.
This is exactly the video I was looking for! Very well done, great video!
Thank you!
the explanation with the animation is is easy to understand and fun to watch, great video!
Thank you!
Awesome video and explanation. Thanks!
This maybe the best video i have seen. There was info on things I never new...
Well researched, Well organised, Well explained👍👍
Your video is very good. I am surprised it doesn't have that many views.
Thanks!
There was also the needle fire design as in the French Chassepot rifle.
Amazing video verry informative
Thank you!
the exact video to my question!
Glad to be of assistance!
You forgot to mention about brass cartridges , at one time copper was used, making the shell too soft to extract, leading to jams
I hadn't heard of that, thank you.
Amazing video for a small channel!
That is much appreciated.

Make a video on How are modern cartilage made
I shall add it to my list.
Underrated video. I’m here after playing War of Rights.
Everything I wanted to know. Thanks.

I'm glad you liked it, I certainly enjoy the mechanics of firearms, and the incremental design improvements that have happened over the years.
I will be citing you for my essay and you got my subscription I hope to see more videos!
Awesome, thank you!

You skipped over the Pauley self contained cartridges which came before the Pin fire

I had a second thought on watching this in public 💀
I wonder the future ammunition will be, maybe we will do away with ballistics all together?
works against humans, but not on alien invadors, who have force fields

Please don't load the pan first. Many people have lost their fingers that way
