This video from FirearmsGuide.com showcases the Angstadt Arms Reticent Titanium Suppressors presented at SHOT Show 2025. The suppressors are highlighted for their sophisticated design, deviating from a typical tubular aesthetic. The Reticent line is constructed from titanium and offered in multiple calibers (5.56, .36, .36L, and 7.62) for versatility. They feature HUB-mount compatibility and include a direct thread mount, with specific thread pitches provided for the .30 caliber and other variants. The description also points to FirearmsGuide.com's extensive library of gun manuals, schematics, and reference guides.

This video details the 1857 Muff Pistol, a single-shot, percussion black powder firearm designed for concealed carry, particularly for women in the Victorian era. The presenter demonstrates its unique loading mechanism, where the barrel screws off for powder and projectile insertion, and discusses its .36 caliber bore with a slightly larger chamber for swaging larger projectiles. Ballistics testing reveals a low muzzle velocity of 250 ft/s and 11 ft-lbs of energy, making it an underpowered but historically significant self-defense option.

Dustin from Guns of the West discusses his top three 'worst' cap and ball revolvers, emphasizing that he still likes these firearms. He ranks the Lamat (9-shot, .44 caliber) third due to bulkiness and fragile parts, the Uberti Wells Fargo (.31 caliber) second for being underpowered and requiring cylinder removal for loading, and the Pietta 1851 Navy (.44 caliber, brass frame) first, citing the brass frame's inadequacy for the caliber and its deviation from the original 1851 Navy's specifications.

This video showcases two Uberti reproductions of the Colt 1851 and 1861 Navy revolvers in .36 caliber. The presenter highlights their aesthetic appeal, comparing the octagonal barrel of the 1851 to the more streamlined 1861, which resembles the 1860 Army. Both are presented as excellent choices for a first cap-and-ball revolver, with the choice between them largely a matter of personal style.

This video provides a practical comparison of Remington #10 and CCI #11 percussion caps for cap and ball revolvers. The presenter demonstrates their function in a Uberti 1851 Navy .36 caliber revolver using standard black powder loads. Both cap types are shown to function reliably, preventing chain fires and allowing for consistent firing, though minor differences in fit and grip are noted.

This video provides an in-depth review of the Uberti reproduction of the Colt 1861 Navy revolver. The presenter, Dustin from Guns of the West, details the firearm's features, compares it to the 1851 Navy and 1860 Army models, and demonstrates its performance with both loose powder and ball and paper cartridges. He notes the historical accuracy of Uberti's reproductions, particularly the placement of markings, and discusses personal aesthetic preferences regarding blued steel versus brass components. The shooting portion highlights the revolver's accuracy at 15 yards and addresses a recurring cap jam issue, suggesting a potential fix with aftermarket nipples.

This video showcases a rare cased pair of Colt Navy Model 1861 revolvers in .36 caliber, highlighting their exceptional condition and historical significance.
