This expert guide from Dustin of Guns of the West details the safety pins and notches found on Colt-style and Remington-style cap and ball revolvers. It explains how these mechanisms function to lock the hammer between chambers but highlights their limitations, particularly the exposure of adjacent nipples. The speaker advises awareness of these vulnerabilities, suggesting practices like loading five rounds for enhanced safety, especially when carrying.
This video details a Navy Operator's war kit loadout from 2007-2017, focusing on the 'then' aspect. The presenter emphasizes practical considerations like plate carrier fit, sling configuration for weapon retention and maneuverability, and the use of flap-covered pouches to prevent snagging and keep gear clean, especially during helicopter operations and fast roping. Key gear includes a London Bridge Tactical plate carrier, a single-point bungee sling, a Benchmade fixed blade knife, medical shears, and multiple magazine pouches, with a strong emphasis on accessibility and security of essential items. The presenter also introduces the concept of a 'gear shakeout' drill to test the integrity of the loadout during physical activity.
