In this video we visit the Arizona Historical Society and were provided very gracious access to Geronimo's actual rifle! The real thing. His actual rifle!
Additionally we discuss the development of the 1870 Springfield from the the earliest incarnation of the 1865 Allin's conversion, and it's subsequent relegation as surplus on the frontier after the adoption of the 1873 Springfield to replace it.

Cyrus is correct. The kneeling photograph is a posed picture in a studio. (You can see the cloth backdrop.) It was likely taken around 1900 for the souvenir trade. The rifle was probably a prop belonging to the photographer. Here's a picture of a much younger Geronimo posing with his trapdoor Springfield -- lh3.googleusercontent.com/proxy/EXJRFqPQQj7M-W2aSd_2Vrh-ufP92yWQswC0cgyKtizlIb2MezR6cR7HxydpseNmS_uF0fVjmyY1HTlaHQipHs2Bj08w6rZvbwbXPyrJ4hlNkXAy0MRQapabFFnGoeDf4Boz9bLyGgmyLgIoWOOC30Cy

Wow, I love your videos, you sir, are a great story teller! The only Trapdoor I ever had in my hands was a true basket case brought to me by a native American who lived on the Fort Totten Reservation. He didn't tell me any background really, his wife worked with mine at the local nursing home and the ladies talk, as they will, he learned I was a part time gun smith, and wanted to know if I could put the parts back together and make a wall hanger out of them. The stock was in pieces but all the steel was there and it was in fair condition. So I went to work, first cleaning up the stock as well as I could, while saving the finish as best as I could, epoxied the parts together using steel and wooden dowels to re-enforce the stock where it needed strength (I rebuilt it thinking he may well try to fire it some day as the bore was very good) I asked him about re-blueing and he wanted that done, so I polished the steel very carefully to maintain the wonderful lines of the classic rifle and the next bluing day we had, I ran her through the tanks. She came out very nice actually. When it was done, I would not have been afraid to fire it, and asked the fellow if he wanted me to test fire the rifle, as I always did that when repairing firearms, he said yes, so I put ten rounds through her of commercial .45-70 ammo, which, as you know is really lightly loaded for the older guns. It was still shooting fairly accurately, when I returned the rifle he was thrilled with the results, in addition to paying his bill he brought me another box. It was filled with old guns, nothing classic, just old single shot shot guns, a replica black powder kit that someone had tried to build and failed completely and a few .22 rifles. He also brought me a replica of the .45-70 that he had purchased so we could compare the old one to the new model, I had to say the old pelter looked, well much more historic.

@@ActionCow69 democrats are far too right wing for me. I dropped my party affiliation with them after the 2020 primaries when they overtly stole the nomination from Bernie for the second time. The GOP swung from center right to straight up autocratic fascism in the last 10 years, and the democrats have swung from center left to conservative over the last 30 years. Even Reagan and Bush I knew climate change was a problem that needed to be tackled, and were for amnesty of those we now call "dreamers" (undocumented immigrants who were brought here as children and know no other country as their home). And when you say "safe space," are you talking like the underground bunkers of the Qtards and peppers? Or the Twitter alternatives fascists flocked to because they couldn't handle seeing brown people and gay people getting rights? You mean those kinds of safe spaces? Cuz last I checked, choosing not to watch something in America was a freedom we still have. The days of forced ideological propaganda video watching aren't here yet. Maybe if you guys had gathered more than 800 people in your little failed coup last January things would be different....but as long as this is still the USA I still have the right to watch (or not watch) whatever I want. I almost didn't even respond to your comment, because it's impossible to take people who use terms like "safe spaces" seriously...as soon as you dodge civil discourse in favor of hyperbolic BS, you've already lost the ability to be seen as a serious person worth having substantive discussion with.

@ST-zm3lm 3 жыл бұрын

@@tamlandipper29 I’m inclined to say either the wear is sufficient that the wrists can’t stand up to much firing beyond that point or more likely that they would’ve been better served to install a recoil lug somewhere around there 🤔 Otherwise it could be from people using overly hot or outright dangerous loadings in their rifles

@stitch626aloha 3 жыл бұрын

The trapdoor was in hindsight, the worst rifle ever built. Not only was the recoil half again more powerful than the .58cal muskets, it ripped off 1 out of four cartridge rims, jamming on a lethally regular basis, as seen by Gen. Custer. The Spencer, while a vastly more restrictive design due to its action, was a vastly better rifle. The Spencer DID require a lot more force to cycle, but it was also much more rugged, and had been built from the ground up with the equivalent of three tangs: trigger tang, receiver tang, and magazine tube lug.

@ST-zm3lm 3 жыл бұрын

@@stitch626aloha I wouldn’t necessarily agree with the assertion that it’s the worst rifle ever made, but it definitely had its flaws. Regarding the ripped case heads, metallic cartridge technology was in its infancy, and it can be argued that poor quality control on ammunition would be more to blame than a stout positive extraction. The Spencer was a more modern system, but far more resource and cost-intensive for a government intent on spending as little money on the army as humanly possible. The trapdoor was far from ideal, but it was a simple and (mostly) effective solution for a frontier army of the time, though it rapidly began to show its age with the widespread proliferation of the Winchester rifles and carbines. I can’t really say there’s any well-known widely used firearm from that period that I would characterize as utterly awful, they all had their strengths and weaknesses.

@InrangeTv 3 жыл бұрын

The Spencer is far LESS rugged and likely to malfunction than the Trapdoor and the Trapdoor is a very effective and rugged rifle. I don't know where some of you are getting your knowledge but I can tell you it's not from practical (actual) use.

A few years back my sister, her husband, me and my wife decided to visit Yellowstone. We lived east of Montana, so our trip took us past the Little Bighorn battlefield. Being an old cavalryman (3rd Armored Cav BRAVE RIFLES!) I just had to stop and pay homage to my fellow troopers. We spent three days wondering the battle ground, leaving our motor homes parked at a nearby campground and driving to the site daily. Our old fart green cards allowed us free access to the park. Just walking the ground is an amazing experience, the grave stones placed where the troopers fell, the large grave where the horses were buried, and other memorials. You could spend hours wondering through the small museum that is on the grounds. I think I was more amazed by the battle field then Yellowstone, where we spent a week seeing the sights and playing pinochle at night in our rigs. I have found memories as it was the last trip we were able to take together. Today, I am the last one alive of the four of us. I still have my motor home in the back yard but the weeds are invading the engine compartment and surrounding the rig. With no co-pilot there is no joy in setting behind that wheel and the urge to be once again nomadic left me as we buried my wonderful wife of 51 years and 4 days up on the hill that overlooks the town. Getting old sucks.

It's fascinating how this parallels the Snider-Enfield in Britain. It was the conversion of the Enfield rifled musket to metallic cartridges, and as with the Trapdoor, the third mark of the Snider was built from new parts instead of recycling Enfield muskets. The big difference was that the Snider was never reduced in caliber.

It might be as simple as slowing things down and forcing you to make that single shot count, even if just punching holes in paper. When used in hunting or in anger I am sure that feeling is greatly magnified.
