Videos tagged with Stamped Parts

This video from Brownells' 'From the Vault' series showcases a rare commercial Walther HP pistol, a precursor to the P38. The expert presenters highlight its exceptional craftsmanship, unique target grips, early stamped internal components, and modern features like a slide-mounted decocker. The specific model, chambered in 7.65mm (.30 Luger), is noted for its rarity, with only 12 known examples.

This video features a show-and-tell of a rare Fabrique Nationale CAL rifle by Paul Levy and Brownells Gun Tech Keith Ford. The FN CAL, developed in the early 1960s, was FN's attempt to adapt the FAL platform to fire the M16's 5.56mm round. While it wasn't a widespread success, it served as a precursor to the FN FNC and, indirectly, the FN SCAR. The discussion highlights shared components with the FAL, unique CAL features such as a rotating bolt (instead of tilting), and the use of stamped parts for cost efficiency. The featured example is particularly noteworthy for being full-auto capable and originating from Rock Island Auctions.
