This video addresses allegations that the 'Super Safety' infringes on existing US patents. The creator provides links to three specific patents (US12038247B2, US7398723B1, US10514223B1) for viewers to research themselves. The video also links to the 'Super Safety release video' for additional context on the product.

This analysis of the Savage Model 1907's rotating barrel system, using high-speed footage, confirms it operates as a delayed blowback mechanism, not a locked breech. This design choice, attributed to Elbert Searle, allowed for a lighter slide by circumventing patents and managing breech pressure through controlled rearward slide movement.
This video details the intense patent dispute between John Browning and Hiram Maxim over machine gun designs in the late 1800s. It highlights Browning's innovative gas-operated Colt 1895, nicknamed the 'Potato Digger,' and Colt's experimental muzzle-cap solution to circumvent Maxim's patents. Ultimately, the US Patent Office ruled in favor of Browning, though Maxim's designs saw significant market dominance.
The Slocum Revolver, produced by the Brooklyn Arms Company, is a unique .32 caliber rimfire firearm designed to circumvent the Rollin White patent. Its innovative sliding chamber mechanism allows for individual chamber loading and unloading, a significant departure from standard revolver designs of the era. The revolver also features safety notches and tactile serrations for improved usability and safety.
This video delves into the history and mechanics of the Winchester Model 1893 and 1897 pump-action shotguns. It highlights the evolution from Christopher Spencer's initial pump design to John Browning's successful Winchester models. Key differences in receiver design, particularly the 1893's limitation with smokeless powder and the 1897's robust construction and slam-fire capability, are detailed. The 1897's significant success and military adoption are also discussed.
