Behind the tech of the new Triumph

This guide details the process of swapping barrels on a Thompson/Center Encore platform and highlights key features for muzzleloader use. The process involves simple disassembly and reassembly, emphasizing the tool-less Speed Breech and the accuracy-enhancing QLA system. Instruction is provided by a knowledgeable Thompson/Center Arms representative.

This video provides a detailed, step-by-step guide on how to swap barrels on a Brownells BRN-4 upper receiver, which is an HK-416 clone. It covers the necessary tools, the process of removing the old barrel and gas block, installing the new barrel, and reassembling the piston system. The guide emphasizes using specific tools like an HK barrel nut wrench and proper torque specifications for reassembly.

This video introduces the new BRN-4 Complete Upper Receiver Assembly from Brownells. It covers the components included, installation of muzzle devices and handguards, available barrel options (medium and heavy profiles), and compatibility with standard AR-15 lower receivers. The features highlighted include all-new production parts, nitride barrels with a 1:7 twist, easy maintenance via a removable op-rod and piston assembly, and compatibility with standard AR-15 charging handles.

This video demonstrates the severe dangers of using smokeless powder in a muzzleloader designed for black powder, resulting in a catastrophic barrel explosion. The speaker, identified as a manufacturer representative, uses a remote firing rig to safely showcase the consequences of this common but deadly mistake. The footage highlights the importance of understanding powder types and pressure differences to prevent dangerous malfunctions.

This video presents an accuracy comparison between a traditional flintlock rifle and a modern sporting rifle at 100 yards. The host, demonstrating high expertise and safe firearm handling, loads and fires both rifles, utilizing Hornady Match .308 ammunition and Goex Black Powder. The comparison highlights the practical differences in loading times and aims to determine which platform achieves superior accuracy under these conditions.

This expert guide details the catastrophic failure modes of muzzleloaders, as demonstrated by Thompson/Center Arms' engineering team. It covers the dangers of double loading, double powder charges, and critically, the use of smokeless powder, which led to a barrel explosion. The video emphasizes safety and understanding pressure limits in muzzleloading firearms.

This guide, presented by an expert from Thompson/Center Arms, focuses on three critical shooting mistakes and their solutions. It covers achieving a Natural Point of Aim (NPOA) for stability, mastering trigger control to overcome target panic, and the benefits of shooting with both eyes open for improved awareness. The instruction emphasizes fundamental techniques for becoming a better marksman.
